"When something's good you don't have to sell it."
That will stick with me for a long time.

He seriously is the greatest.

He is such a fucking legend.
The call about the older skaters not having shitty sponsors is so true, even though personally, I reckon Reemo would have hustled Monster out of millions and not even put a sticker on his board.
Lets have a little Reemo appreciation.

Randomly met him today at a Ralphs by my job in Torrance. They posted they had a villager signing and was a mile away so i went. Got there as they were wrapping up and one of the employees said if i bought case of villager he would give me the last board they had that was autographed. The little skate rat in me took up on the offer and was able to meet and greet Reynolds, Kenny and Mariano as they were about to head out to cherry park. Mentioned to him that Slap loves the B16 shape and suggested a Slap X Baker collab for the pals. He seemed intrigued but i doubt it'll happen.

Didn't expect to watch the whole thing. Clicked play and immediately became hypnotized. That was really good

I was expecting a cheesy Berrics-style thing, but it was actually pretty good. I like that his daughter is already shrugging off advice from Riley's Dad.

A lot of past or current pros/industry people that I talk to all seemed pretty bummed on us here.  There's a few people I talk to at Stoner and just bringing up the forum you can see them grimace haha
ill murray, can you remind me why you think im a kook

I like the idea of coconut water over energy drinks and soda, but where are these things sourced and processed? All I got from then was "a family farm in the Philippines," which could mean 1000 things. Certified organic farms? By who? Fair trade? Need details, not hype.

If I were a SLAP sponsor conspiracy theorist, I'd be wary of him referring to his main sponsors as "Baker, Independent, and my shoes"

"If something is good you don't need to sell it" this may be true... but we're watching a video of you talking about the company. I've been seeing things about Villager for a while on instagram now, and for a while I just saw it as another version of Saint Archer that they're trying to branch further by not limiting it to people over 21. I see all these non skate companies as something pros are trying to get into because they're realizing you cannot live forever off skating, and a lot of pros can't live off of it at all in the first place.

That being said, I'm not against them trying to branch out of skating and I actually do want to try the chocolate or pineapple flavors of the coconut water, but they are sold out on the website.

Well, we can cross off a substantial amount of Explosions in the Sky songs that he won't be skating to in his next part...

Straight up legend, good to see him supporting something he believes in and not just riding for a energy drink for the paycheque. Big props.
