I thought that line was never gonna end.  He just kept pushing and pushing and pushing.  He's got some tricks though.

new york has some perfect spots and this guy looks like shit on a skateboard

There is no such thing as a perfect NY spot...there's something wrong with all of em...i respect his work and i hope he wins he payed his dues in this city and gets hated on alot...He filmed at that Banks line at a point where no one gave a fuck about the banks it was pretty much abandoned and dirty (dirtier than normal) before it finally got closed...He won the eS game of skate here twice i believe, which is pretty difficult cause you have to win in 2/3 different ones in different boroughs then win again in the city against people who come from all over, and pro's would compete in it here too (Ishod Weir even back then was consistent as fuck an he got tooken out by someone who probably doesnt even skate anymore) You gotta have a huge bag of tricks and a serious consistency to do it is the point im tryna make to people questioning Nate's trick selection. Don't sleep on this dude

I found the Jamie Thomas Welcome To Hell-esque line a tad bit corny.
