For a skate connoisseur like Jason Dill, along with many others, the ’90s was considered the golden era for the four-wheeled pastime. In the newest video produced by TransWorld SKATEboarding, the ever-enigmatic Dill returns to those days of big jeans, ridiculously small wheels and pressure flips with Bobshirt.

Bobshirt –known for its archival and dedication to the cultural heyday– sits with the Fucking Awesome head as he is handed a plethora of skate memorabilia. What ensues, at times, is an emotional walk down memory lane. Captured by nostalgia, Jason speaks –with an appearance from Bill Strobeck– on a plethora topics from his love of VHS tapes, skating EMB, Keenan Milton and Dylan Reider. And that doesn’t even scratch the surface.

Watch the video above, as Dill has a story for everything. In other sports news, UFC plans to strip titles from Conor McGregor.
