It’s so funny watching Macba locals all clap for Penny doing a fakie back t on the ledge.

If that was anyone else they would have all been like hurry the fuck up mate haha

Yeah totally I think the same thing but it’s like watching Pele kick a ball. If you didn’t know who you were watching it would be different!

Perfect analogy

Funnily enough I was thinking about that trick yesterday, how I hadn’t tried it in years and wanted to do it again, then I saw this… Gotta love serendipity!

Haha, yes. He’s Penny. I’ve never met him but all my mates who have told me he’s super nice. Everybody loves him. Some kids I skate with here who are in their early twenties at most are so into him. I love hearing him speaking French in those clips so much. It always makes my day.

Yer he’s a lovely bloke. I love that truck one of my few ledge manoeuvres

I thought you met him in Lausanne? Didn’t you say you gave him directions once, or did I dream that?

Damn, you’re right! How could I forget that?!? That was so long ago… He was the first native English speaker I had a conversation with, after learning English on my own with a book as a kid. I was so stoked.

Horner bumped into an old friend as we were about to sit down and chat with Penny at the South Bank Grand Opening thing in 2019. I’ll never know if not chilling with him was a good or a bad thing. Sometimes you don’t want to ruin the mystique, but he’s Penny… You want to meet him. Oh well, that day was fantastic anyway. @jimvo and I skated all the way from South Bank to Brixton after that, well pissed. We even stopped at Kennington and skated there for a bit. Can’t believe we did not get hurt, haha.

If those are illegal (and yeah I think they are), does that make lipslide to nosegrinds illegal as well?

Has the extra footage Denny filmed at Monmouth been uploaded anywhere other than Facebook? Anyone remember seeing this raw footy, I know the edited clip from his vid has been shared.

There’s loads more on Facebook.

That was a hard watch – filming was not good.

I love Tom, but I’m not sure the world needed that 2 minutes of footage.

That Blesstheworld iPhone thing posted before was so much better.
