This is actually pretty sick.

Shouldn't there be another two bolts on the 'K' though?

two dots on the l? there should be six more dots if the goal was to make the word look like a skateboard.

also, rad.

I don't understand it. I don't like it. I don't like Mr. Valls and his crap. There is only room in skateboarding for one Leo and that's Leo Romero.

That's rad and seems extremely difficult/scary to try.

I like the photo too

hahaha that reminds me of this.

regardless, i like seeing "original/creative" skating and i back the fuck out of gou miyagi(whom makes richie jackson look like chaz ortiz) and chopper, etc. but i just can't get into leo valls. it doesn't work for me, he seems like the biggest "try-hard" since arne stein. and yes i read that internet interview he had with that sequence of him doing a switch flip over pretty much nothing and then rolling down some stairs switch and i hated it.

the power slide to lip slide was my favorite thing to do at the K-Mart curb when I was 12...even landed a few of them

Years on, doing the backside one going up hill at the pulaski ledge was very fun...even landed a few of those.

okay, but... he's styling on you so hard... even harder after you released that ass cloud of an accusation into the ethos. dude's skating low-impact and having fun. being conservative with his joints and shit, and giving you style to chew on. if you don't like it, go watch nyjah. the CHOICE is yours. but quit whining, ruining everybody's good time. you goof.

i am the king of ruining everybody's good time and i wouldn't call it stylin, i call it being lazy. it looks like he isn't skating to his full potential, like he's holding back almost. which brings me to another argument that he should not be pro. his skating reminds me of that dude that pioneered nollie frontside feeble grinds on rails, dropped off for a few years and then came back with footage that was complete garbage, i dont even remember his name, mark gutterman? but somebody on here said something along the lines of, "there's a difference between original skating and just being lazy." if leo valls is pro material, then we should just give genesis evans a signature video game and then the very integrity of being a pro skater would be compromised....if it isn't already. and i would rather eat my own hemorrhoids than watch mr. incest.

this is about to become some "is skateboarding art or is it a sport?" debate in which i would like absolutely no part. because it's both.

leo looks great on a skateboard and is having fun while he's doing it.
