Before Vice started taking on politics and the news, it used to be primarily filled with stuff about sex, music, drugs and all sorts of DIY, humor type articles. It was pretty cool, like an extension of Big Brother without the skating (which some claim Vice ripped off). While the mag is focusing more on big news stories and documentaries now, they still do come out periodically with features that feel like “old Vice” – with their On Acid series being one of them. I always thought the feature looked fun and it was underutilized by them. So when we were invited to the Street League finals in Newark, we figured there was no better time to rip off their “On Acid” segment but instead of going to fashion shows or monster truck rallies, we’d test it out in the skateboard world.

I’d give him 6 and see how he handles that. One is easy enough to shrug off.

Well dude “1” is an arbitrary term. who knows the potency of the doses he took, and who knows how much it affects him. I’m not sure if you’re trying to act hard or something by saying one is easy to shrug off, but he was clearly tripping hard. Regardless of how one dose of a completely different batch and likely dosage affects you.
