We knew there was a reason why we gravitated towards this show. In a case of game recognizes game, Mero from Desus & Mero shouts out Harold Hunter, and name drops Zoo York’s Mixtape during the show’s recent interview with Tony Hawk.

Is there a favorite part from a video that you’ve seen? I know personally for me—rest in peace Harold Hunter—when the Zoo York Mixtape came out, I think it was like ’96 [or] ’97; I was like, “I’m skateboarding now.” It was hip hop. It was New York. It was a different twist on skateboarding.

The quote starts at 2:27, and they even show a clip of Harold. It’s really crazy how much RB Umali’s classic influenced popular culture. Watch the full interview above.

Seeing all the other shops back then were focused on snowboards, Tony Croghan saw the opportunity to establish a shop dedicated to skateboards. He used earnings from a hotel job to start 35th North Skate Shop in Seattle.

After twenty years, 35th North has become a prominent part of the Seattle community, hosting events, art shows, premieres, and karaoke nights.

Pro skaters Matt Gottwig and Kristin Ebeling shared more stories about how the shop became an integral part of the local skate scene in this episode of “Established“.
