All Day !!!!
“John Wayne just kidnapped a little black kid from the hood” 😂😂😂🤣🤣
Bout to get us to california on a horse lol
Personally, this is like "the last dance" of skateboarding for me. Grew up wanting to be this dude and to hear his story is just amazing. Still remember his part in "the reason" and also "the dc video". Stevie at the top of his game. Always been a solid dude who forever kept it real. So glad he's getting his shine. Truly the GOAT for me. Kalis a real one too!
Kinda makes the new generation look so boring right!?
The Reason... Everything switch in that video. Reason I started skating switch.
Smashley WHAT EGO?? Dude is the most laid back guy frm philly
Word shout out to Kalis!
Represents what friendship should be about and how teamwork make the dream work
same here man.
Watching this made me start skating again. I was good around 2001-2014. Got bad into opiates and completely lost my will to skate. Sober now and getting back into who I am. Stevie's story has inspired me
💯💯💯
KEEP ON PUSHING BRO!🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤 SKATEBOARDING LOVES YOU 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Keep on pushing my brother!!!!! Sending you love from Houston Texas!!!!
I've been on and off heroin since I was 16 (24 now) the worst is going to jail or rehab and you cant skate. Hardest days of my life. Realizing what you love and care about, when its too late.
Yo how's the skating?!
So thankful to grow up in this era and witness real people getting there love and respect 💯
Anybody else just quietly shed some tears while watching this? It felt so good :)
Especially his reaction when Love got torn down. Such an iconic park for skateboarding, I was lucky enough to skate there a few times back in the day, and it sucks so much that it is basically nothing now.
I definitely did
Man, I believe if most would have known what "DGK" meant back then, it would've sold more.
Yup
This was so beautiful. I love it. What a fighter, and he's trying to help others go for their goals too. Amazing style, and amazing human being. I respect Stevie forever.
Came for Stevie, stayed for Susan. What a cool Mother.
growing up in the hood ... i remember being blown away in the early 90's when I first saw Stevie in a skate video .... i remember thinking like "wow, he looks like me ... and his skate style is unparalleled ... soul on a skateboard" ... that meant so much just to see him ... the inspiration ... that I had a place in skateboarding ... thanks Stevie!!! This documentary is so dope ... thanks for sharing your story and inspiring me in my youth
One of the most humble dudes in all of skating. And forever will be a legend.
That was one of the most heart touching skate films I have ever seen
Been riding DGK since 03.... first video I ever saw was dc video..stevie always stood out to me...my first board was jackson curtain first pro deck...
The pop shuvit rewind on his DC part was so ill you can’t beat Stevie’s style and flow
revert but close
So inspirational. You can tell Stevie was hungry for that break his whole life. I love how his story represents the true meaning of never giving up and believing in yourself. Work ethic and persistence gave him the life he deserves
Man this gave me so much nostalgia. I grew up idolizing Kalis & Stevie...Gino & Keenan...there was something special in skateboarding around that time. What a beautiful journey Stevie has had.
I lived this era...straight up outta sin city, we loved Steve's swag. We were riding mx, bmx, skateboarding, writing graff, making music whatever but we all supported each other through love and encouragement! Thanks dgk
His switch pop is unmatched till this day IMO
facts
Tiago lemos and Alex carolino both have really good ones up there with his
@@rastaskate4546 very true
The Boss would agree
Yep can't argue with that
X-Games should make these about more OG skaters. Hearing it from them is inspiring! 🤘
Yeah, and cut down on the number of ads. Had to switch to the laptop with Adblock to get through it
@@idmhead0160 That sucks. Same on this radio channel I always listen to, Coast to Coast AM. It's like conspiracy weirdos I listened to since high school. Sooomany ADS.
@@WolfWould Generally, CZcams is considerably better than cable or broadcast TV. You can skip most of the ads. I've noticed some channels seem to insert a ton of ads intentionally though. This one is about the worst that I've seen. I skated in the 80s and got out of it for a couple decades and never knew who Stevie Williams was until recently. Pretty awesome dude. Makes me proud to be a skater with regard to what he said about all races coming together.
this was great. stevie has always been so inspirational but man this made me so appreciative for everything he has done! keep doing you stevie!! makes me proud to be a black skater!
I'm proud to be white
@@dieseldabz7104 don’t start with that bs
This makes me proud to be white too!
@@DISCORDDER what's a matter?
growing up me and my cuz being the only skaters in our hood....we looked up to Stevie big time. Forever love and respect 💯
his first trick. nose manual to revert nose manual to nollie tre out.....LEGEND
Being a skater from Philly in that era (93-99) I got to skate with so many incredible people. I remember the first time I met Stevie and being blown away by his raw talent as such a younger kid. I remember not seeing him there for a while and hearing he just up and left for San Fran, and being blown away. That’s the type of risk you gotta take to get your break in life no matter what the job/ circumstances are if you want to be a success. I’m glad he had so much success in life. If anyone deserves it it’s him. It’s also amazing and humbling to hear how much he’s done for the community and skateboarding as a whole. Mad props bro! Keep on living the dream.
Stevie is the man! Remember watching that wheel of fortune in 411 with the Lords of the Underground song over and over. Shout out from Sweden!
Congratulations STEVIE, true Legend, greetings from Argentina South America
Amazing human being, phenomenal skater, impeccable style, what more can you ask for?
I love you, Stevie. Always was mesmerized watching your parts. This was a really fun watch.
Man as a skateboarder in Cape Town South Africa 🇿🇦 this man was and still is one of my inspirations!! DGK all day!
Grew up watching videos of Stevie and Josh skating at Love and i would pause and rewind and try to copy the trick they was doing.. Stevie was and has been truely inspirational in my life growing up skateboarding!!!!
“You can make it out the hood, but you gotta go back”, watched this whole doc and momma spit the hardest line at the end. Loved this so much.
Great work. There have been a few Stevie docs over the years, this was definitely the best. DGK ALL DAY
thank's for all influence bro , you and your skateboard crew saved my life , skateboard 4ever
One of the most inspirational people alive.thank you for what you’ve done for skateboarding Stevie❤️💪
Kalis and Stevie are the realest! So sick to see them come up togethwr and sticking together with their friends / community
I love my city, but skateboarding making me fall in love all over again. Stevie a pioneer! skateboarding good in the hood cuz of stevie
This gave me so much motivation when I move in two weeks across the country I can be my self
Stevie Williams is the truth and very moving,respect and coming back and rising, the Allen Iverson of the Skateboard sport,the real Rocky for real
This documentary is dope
Mad respect to Stevie for all his success and keeping it real after all these years. Awesome to see him give back to the kids to help them see another side to life and having fun skating!
I'm a lot older and came up on the eastside of LA. Skateboarding was a west LA phenomenon, specifically, Venice & Dogtown, the Z-Boys. Later in the 80s, when punk was taking off, Thrasher began melding punk & boarding. To this day, even tho I was never a skater, I got love for that culture - punk to its core.
Stacy's "Dogtown & Z Boys" is a classic, particularly seeing "the original seed," Jay Adams (RIP). But I tuned in early to see the NBA playoffs and I caught the la st 40 minutes of this Stevie Williams doc. It is great, and took me back to a time when kids could feel free, no matter how many problems. I don't know if that's possible for kids these days - I hope so, but Stevie's story is a great one.
his story never gets old, mad love
this doc is long overdue. thank you stevie for all you do for skateboarding!
I've never seen a longer commercial in my entire life.
i never wanted to keep watching a commercial in my life
I've idolized You Stevie Williams since I was 10 years old.
This is such an inspiring story, I love DGK!
the ads are so annoying but pretty dope documentary need more of this!
Stevie, your legacy is such an inspiration to me and so many... I relate so fking much, it’s unreal! Hoping to meet you one day, share my story so far, skate and talk business! This is coming from an up and coming black owned skate brand... love! 🖤
One time there was a huuuuge banner in the old town in my city of Stevie for Reebok - Gdańsk in Poland:)
Legend
One love from Russia! Indeed DGK was dope since day one! Stevie was loved since day one... Remember watching his vhs parts over and over again. What a great short film! Super stoked! One love to yo all
I’ve been waiting for this for so long
Brought some tears to my eyes 🥺, Naw fr tho stevie and kalis will always be Living Legends!
It's always been a dream of mine to meet you guys, inspired me to skate and destroy, 25yrs still ridin dirrty! DGK keep on rollin!! peace love
Big hola from Russian's far east! Much love and respect to all the people who makes other people's dreams to become true! One LOVE and peace..!
Amazing!. Thank you Stevie for your inspiration and also thank you X Games for this classic ❣
This just inspired me like CRAZY. 🛹 gave me hope and reignited my passion for creating my own skateboards again. Working on a “new style” of skating, or rather my own style that’s inspired by steetdance , this just reminded me to never give up.
So inspiring to see stevie come back to the skate world was missing a peace of the puzzle with him out the sk8 scene
I love these types of films man so intensely inspiring for anyone and everyone
Crazy, much respect to Stevie
absolutely beautiful.
growing up stevie and josh were huge inspirations to so many of us! for real
EAST COAST STAND UP!!!! This touched me deeply being a man who grew up in the hood and skated before it was accepted. we had to be an outcast for the love of the board . Glad we had guys like this too look up to and show closed minded folks whats really good.
Great piece, quite emotional at times.
When you’re a kid following your dreams all that is, is doing what it takes to get where you want to be...he’s forever goated!
I crossed paths more than a few times with Stevie at LOVE Park in the early 90's - never had my board stolen, but you better believe that vibe was real - riding in from Jersey on the Speedline. One winter we built a DIY skatepark in an abandoned warehouse in Cherry Hill and I heard a rumor that a bunch of these guys from LOVE came and skated it. It is so surreal to listen to him tell his story... I have huge respect for the man he has become.
Man Stevie just made me hop on my board for a garage sesh @ 1 am 😭🤘🏾, much love man a very inspirational video thank you !!!
“If you make it out the hood, you gotta go back!” 🙏🏾
hand down one of my favorite skaters he had his own style flow and just had his own thing so happy got to watch his edits and hype me up so much
This hit hard man! Beautiful story
Really just a good example of believing and fostering that dream and I'm happy to see Stevie do his thing cause that was my dream at one point...
yeeeeeeeah, Stevie is the realest skater we've ever seen
Stevie and Josh legends!
This is Amazing!! Love from over here! Stevie Williams = LIVING LEGEND
"He learned in one day how to ollie"... lol! SWEET!
Grew up always looking up to Stevie
so much respect for him. huge inspiration
DGK
Big love, Stevie! So inspiring.
Love Stevie!
I bought his board when I started skating again.
Pure inspiration
Incredible story. Stevie broke so many barriers and gave kids like me an ability to see themselves in Skateboarding. Real legend.
Unbelievable video .. Stevie Williams will always be the 🐐🐐
Growing up in Philly early 00’s when Stevie had already gained crazy popularity, being love park king and beiny on Tony Hawks games he made anybody living here don’t matter black or white, feel like you could really be somebody with skating coming from here which was hated and looked down on by most adults and ALL authority. Philly Phinest man the golden boy from down north
This is legitimately my favorite film of all times hands down, Stevie I’m a white boy from Baltimore city and y’all inspired me to be different then my environment I appreciate everything y’all did for east coast skating
Thanks so much Stevie! A total pioneer!
Amazing piece of work. Sitting with my stevie board right next to me.
Respect from Croatia
This change my day,and did something more to
Oh dam, I didn’t expect to cry watching this.
Are we even sure Stevie is goofy footed?! I swear he just does everything switch, its awesome.
One of my favs ....all time. Him and kalis...
didnt know Stevie blew up like that, I was skatin during the 90s and through to 2010 and always loved his parts in videos. Bumping the beats of his scenes on my minidisc while skating.
Man the feels, Thank you Skateboarding!
I love your attitude 🔥🔥🔥
So crazy. I didn’t know anything about Stevie’s SF struggles. I met Stevie at Pier 7 when I was 12 and skating in the city on weekends. He asked me for a cigarette. I gave him one. I had seen him in 411VM #8 or #9, I can’t remember now, but I knew who he was and he was one of my favorite skaters then even, just from that 411VM WOF part. This must’ve been about 1994 I’m guessing. And I remember Profile too. Karl Watson threw a deck off the pier at Pier 7, and one of the little fat kids who went with us to the city to skate stripped down and jumped into the water to get it. Karl was laughing. Gave him a set of wheels too I think. But Stevie was already a legend and I saw him a few more times down at 7 hanging with Pat, York, Sanchez, Watson, and I think Brad Johnson. Those times were so magical for me. I was 12, in love with skating, and the city just kinda amplified my passion, pushed me to skate better. A few years later, I spoke to Karl Watson on the phone. I was in FTC and Karl called to tell the shop to save him one of his pro models. Either Andy or Joey told him, sorry Karl, some kid just bought it. Karl said, “put him on the phone”. Hilarious. He was stoked to hear I bought his board and asked me where I was skating. He said to meet him down at Pier 7 later and we’d skate together, so I did, and we did. I think I told him the Profile story where he threw the deck into the bay and my friend dove in. He laughed. I was trying so hard to get in with those guys then, but it was clicky. I was a peripheral kid in the city. I was pretty decent around 95/6 and getting a little more notice. But then life happened, girls, weed, booze, driving permit. But it’s crazy hearing Stevie talk about it, cause I thought he was being taken care of by sponsors and for me, it was like magical and inspiring to even see him there.
The past and the future define us indefinitely. So stoked that this is a apart of our past. That’s what makes the now so good! Keep sending it no matter who you are! Your style is your future. That’s what I got from this.
I'm just a mom who came upon this video because my son left it up after he watched it. (We share a computer. Isn't that nice?😆) I love seeing success stories like these. Stevie Williams is a great model for others to follow!
My name on CZcams has been dgk for almost 20yrs love that brand
loved it, very inspirational!!! DGK all day
Didn't think I was going to cry today
Wow. That was really well done.
Everyone had the DC Williams, I remember having a friend that skated through at least 4 or 5 pairs.
This was fire shout out Stevie Williams, what a legend
Um salve de Jacareí SP ! Seu legado foi longe mano. Sua atitude seu estilo atravessou fronteiras! Vc é lenda Stevie, se cuide parceiro!!
