Yeah Patrick only 5050’d once then immediately started trying the back noseblunt. I’d forgotten how good people are these days and thought he was taking the piss at first.
The sculpture that Schaar is skating is across the road from Neil Chester’s flat too so I got to see Ches for the first time in forever
The whole New Balance thing (aka them propping up half the skate industry), really does seem to be propelling skaters into being high performance athletes, aka performing at a top level consistently, and regularly (eg, demos, regular videos etc).
Seeing them in Melbourne was eye opening at the level of consistency, style, ability that everyone has on that team, and it was only a fraction of them.
