I did a fair amount of blow in the 90s but a lot more in the Oughts.

p.s. Pitchblende's "Sawed Off City" 8/ a great song

i think he just pushes mongo when he's skating switch, like a lot of pros do. regardless of what anyone says bam is still a sick skater, not incredibly creative or anything but solid nonetheless

I remembered he pushed full mongo in some of his early parts... whatever!

I think I pushed mongo for some time in the 90's too. THE SHAME!

I found a Thrasher with a mini interview with a 12/14ish Bam Margera.  He looked like Butt-Head when they'd do flashbacks to when he and Beavis were kids.

I pushed mongo until I was 25.  Never knew any other way.  Started hanging out with some young guys at the skate park, got made fun of, learned how to push normal in like an hour.  It's the only thing that's ever come easy to me regarding skating. 

Man, I spent a good amount of the 90's looking like a goon because of skate fashion and grunge. 

And if this thread's meant toward music, then I'd say look harder.  There's been times where good music was buried deeper, but it's there.  The amount of good music available is always more than you can digest, it just depends on your willingness to seek it out.  I've spent the last 18 years furiously digging and there's no end.  There's always a stream of new releases coming out, plus the loads of music that's been released in the last 50+ years.  The only way I can see getting burnt on music is if you have really specific taste.  But if that's the case, you were meant to burn out.  Some people are like that.

Best thing about pushing mongo was that I now know how to perfectly push in switch!

Yeah, it's one of the reasons that I want to start learning to skate switch.  I can already push normal without a problem..

haha...this is how it went down for me too. I had no one to skate with when I started. I didn't know any better til the older dudes started making fun of me.

The 90's blew as much as every other decade that followed.
