138 – Sid Abruzzi: Original Waterbrothers

In this episode of The Shetler Show, Anthony Shetler its down with “the Package” Sid Abruzzi. This episode is a special one for the skateboard podcast, as Sid had an impact on Shetler coming up as a skater.They begin by getting into what seems like the standard line when we talk about the good ol days of skateboarding, “with putting a pair of roller skate wheels on a piece of wood”. The conversation proves very enlightening, and leads into “the surfing boom”. Which spawned skateboarding as we know it. Sid Abruzzi breaks it down, and expands on the history of skateboards making their way into shops.Sid feels that after 6 decades of skateboarding, that surfing and skating are intertwined even to this day. They discuss the climate of skateboarding during the “Lords of Dogtown” era, including the rivalry between surfer/skaters and the skateboarding purists. Anthony Shetler asks about how Sid got into selling skateboards and doing parking lot demos. They get into building ramps with the Water Brothers,and hosting a demo with the Bones Brigade that was sold out. Sid Abruzzi also talks about Skater Island, and everything that made it possible.Host: Anthony ShetlerWebsite: http://allineedskate.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ALLiNEEDSKATETwitter: https://twitter.com/ALLiNEEDSKATEFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ALLINEEDSKATETwitter: https://twitter.com/anthonyshetlerFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/anthony.shetlerGuest: Sid AbruzziWebsite: http://originalwaterbrothers.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/WaterBrothersInstagram: Sid Abruzzi (@waterbrothers) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: Water Brothers (@WaterBros) | TwitterShoutouts: Jake PhelpsKevin DaySkater IslandWreckerMalden SkateparkZero GravityWoodflow SkateboardsLords of DogtownTracker GullwingStevie DerraBones BrigadeTwisterSkaters EdgeTony HawkBrian PenningtonReese SimpsonChristian HosoiFletcher BrothersRyan Wiebust
