滑板界的元祖级人物 Tony Alva 于 1976 年第一个做出了 Off The Wall 的动作,这位复古的元老级滑手在前往巴黎2013 Downtown Showdown时候给大家介绍了自己滑板的装备，带脚窝的复古10寸的宽板，Indy桥，自己的轮子，自己做的包等等，一切都是那么随性有风格，帅到没朋友！
Our first video Essentials takes us to one of the original members of the Z-Boys skateboarding team -- Tony Alva. Catching up with Alva before his session for the 2013 Vans Downtown Showdown in Paris, France, we took a look at the skate legend's skate essentials while on the road. His ride setup includes the 'Snubby ' -- a 10 inch wide deck with similar dimensions to skateboards found in the early '80s, but with modern concave -- fitted with trucks from the Independent Truck Company and 'Cyclone' wheels from his own brand Alva -- all fitting is his custom prototype Alva skatebag. With the absence of bells and whistles, the OG rider keeps his Essentials simple as his passion for the sport has not changed since he first picked up a board some 35 years ago, only requiring what he needs to get his board rolling. Along with his signature Vans shoe, Alva also rides his long-time skating peer's (Christian Hosoi) pro-model Sk8 Hi.
