What Is The Most Famous Boardslide Ever Done?!Signed Steve Caballero Boards at storied skateboarding .com !!! The top graphic designed by Steve Caballero himself! In “What Is The Most Famous Boardslide Ever Done?!” we asked a group of notable and respectable professional skateboarders who they thought that had the most famous boardslide in skateboarding history. Not the biggest boardslide, not the longest boardslide, nor the fastest, slowest, highest or lowest, the “most famous”. This question is always a strange one in skateboarding, a sport that is so rooted in the underground - the “anti-fame” if you will. So, it’s hard for some to wrap their head around. There were A LOT of Mark Gonzalez call outs from his Blind “Video Days” part but in the end, we narrowed it down to two legends; Powell Peralta’s Frankie Hill and THPS, Vans Shoes & Bones Brigade’s Steve Caballero (Street Cab Era). We sat down in San Diego, CA with the two icons to talk board slides! The two were quick to acknowledge Natas Kaupus as the original Most Famous Boardslide because it paved the way for the first ever handrail skating. For both skaters, it really didn’t even come down to one specific boardslide but a body of work. Frankie had several iconic boardslides from Powell’s “Ban This” and Propaganda”. Shockingly enough, many of these were shot in one day and even on the same day! Not only was Frankie doing some of the most memorable skateboarding tricks to date, he was doing it all in one day. Frankie is regarded as one of skateboarding’s true pioneers. Steve Cab’s career began in vert & bowl skating but during his “Street Cab Era” he did some serious boardslides. This video piece highlights his long 22 stair boardslide from THPS 2, the quadruple kink rail from his 411 vm opener and arguably one of the most famous skateboarding fails; the Tilt Mode slam where Cab goes up a jump ramp, down 8 stairs, across a long flat
