Gnarly and really good trick selection for each spot.  Isn't that double bank where he does the Cab-flip the spot that skaters have rarely ridden all the way down?  He did it switch.

Yea I'm from Russia too, he is a big thing here, pro and everything. I'm glad he is the first Russian to breakthrough to the international  skate scene, and not just Europe.

Putin needs to take this guy shirtless horseback riding after that part.

I'm not sure who else has gotten clips on it, but Cairo Foster and Kenny Reed both did tre flips into the top of the bank. Cairo then ollied into the second part and rode the whole thing whereas Kenny slid down the last part so as to not run into his filmer.

That was rad. He can really hold onto a feeble.
When the self clap happens naturally and out of pure stoke; I completely endorse it. Nothing wrong with being happy.
Did he bonk the rail on that bs 360 over into the bank?

Yeah, those are the specific skaters I remember hitting it.  I swear one of them or maybe someone else said it was crazy slick and hard to ride down for some reason, but I think there used to be a fence at the bottom so that might have been the problem.

I think there is normally a fence or something at the bottom.

If it comes from just being happy about landing something rad (more than self-hype) then fuck it, be stoked. Definitely better than fake nonchalance.

That back 180 nosegrind 180 thing over the rail was sick, and that cab flip.

Really liking the Russian spots too.
