Just a little warning. At 0:30, I perform a stunt where I rode a skateboard down a hill, hit a curb, and did a front-flip landing on grass, almost breaking my ass (did not mean to make those last few lines rhyme 😂). What I'm trying to say is, DO NOT TRY AND PERFORM THAT STUNT AT HOME! It can cause serious injuries and possibly death. Please do not do it.

On this episode of Pointless History, I'll go over the history of the very first signature skateboarding sneakers, the Half Cabs by Vans, as well as a brief history of how Vans started, Steve Caballero's involvement with Vans, the evolution of the Half Cabs, and the Half Cabs today. This video is in tribute to Paul Van Doren who passed away earlier in the year. God Rest his soul!

Want to give a special shoutout and thank you to Ryan Gordon for making background music for this episode and Justin Guerrieri for the VoiceOver help! Much appreciated guys!

This is a new series called Pointless History where I tell you exactly what the title says. It's mostly stuff that peaks my interest. This episode is about DEVO's Satisfaction Guitar. DEVO is an new wave band known for their hit song "Whip It" from 1980. Not a lot of people know (unless you're a Hardcore DEVO Fan) that they have other songs, like Uncontrollable Urge, That's Good, Girl U Want, Freedom of Choice, Gut Feeling, the list goes on. They have also, bravely I should add, covered some songs like Don't Be Cruel, Secret Agent Man, It Takes A Worried Man, and their famous mutated cover of (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. The leader singer, Mark Mothersbaugh, has a history of guitars with pedals duct taped to them when covering this song. This is the pointless history of the Satisfaction Guitar. Enjoy!
