It’s a shame no-one cares that tiny kids are doing fakie 12,000s now I guess? The 900 was a mythical trick that was chased and thought unlandable for so long that it’ll always stay special, when it was first landed, where as anything after is a bit whatevs…
And it was on live TV, on the X-games for a best trick contest. That context was pretty cool, no matter your opinion on contests like that or SLS, and it was the tipping point to really push skating into a very successful 10-15 year stretch.
Every trick he does is the best possible version on the hardest possible spot.
How many back tail flip outs have you seen this week? How many will you remember? Yep, his…
Never realized how INSANE the ollie at 3:23 is. Love how he flies away kinda out of control because he’s going way too fast on the funbox he rides into after that.
Lovely scene vid (apparently supported by various skater owned shops, Orchard, Seasons and Plush) from the Upstate NY/Boston area. Loads of tricks filmed on grimy spots, during winter, with snow or puddles around, which I really liked. The last kid is really good.
