Just watched that shit. He's absolutely insane. One thing that will always exist is that feeling that skateboarding is just too crazy sometimes.

[Fongstarr.]

Balls to the wall! That shit was sick.

Drehobal and Hosoi? damn.

False.

David falls backwards and there is a wall to save him from further injury.

Muska falls backwards and he is dropping onto steps.

Yeah.

It doesn't even matter tho: Muska first try over ten years ago! (With much more style)

You ever slip out on a frontside grind on a rail before? Much worse.


Falling blindly onto the steps would have more potential to cause serious injury.



But, alas, Muska is boss and did that shit first try, so it doesn't matter.

You think falling between the wall and the rail would save someone from further injury?

The black clothes and the horns and eating pigeons makes sense now, doesn't it? He is Satan.

Haters just got put to sleep.

[416jonz]

Gonzalez is loco!  viva colombia!!!

[shouldn't]

are people seriously fucking arguing about which side it's scarier to 5050 a rail from? who gives a fuck man. muska did shit david can't do, david does shit muska couldn't do. that's that. just cause you grew up watching someone else be the rail king for a while doesn't mean they wouldn't ever get their place taken or retire. it's called the future. be hyped for the kid instead of doing your best to pin-point one trick to hate on out of a fucked up 6 minutes of footage and, not even having a reason to hate on it to begin with. hyped for this guy and i'm not against him getting soty at all after watching that. looking forward to the baker video next month and forrest's part!!!

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

^Agreed. Its not even his ender.

[marshalbanana]

So...many..kinks..

[Narcissus]

Holy smokes, that shit were unsane.

[Citizen on Patron]

WHY CAN'T I WATCH IT?!

THE VIDEO PLAYER ISN'T WORKING!

[grimcity]

Ditto pretty much everyone... fucking insane. That correction he made after the front blunt transfer off the fence had me grinning ear to ear... just fuckin risking shit!

[MFLUDER]

I dont like it because he isnt dressed like me.

[layzieyez]

He's a professional really bad luck avoider and death heckler.  Crazy fucker.

[holden caulfield]

holy fuck when he bailed on that downhill kickflip in SF his head was barely a foot away from smashing into a car at mach 6.

how does one compete against someone who is full out suicidal?

[witty pseudonym]

I particularly liked the skateboarding aspects of this video.

Ok wow, short bus award goes to you. You just focus on that, and we'll watch the rest of the sickest part of the year.

Out of all possible shoots, they made him sit infront of a kinked a rail!

I have nothing but good things to say about David. That part was insane and he seems like a good guy, if a little mindless. Ha, his stories on this week's weekend buzz were pretty endearing. I think a guy that tries drinking piss for the hell of it and then 50-50s 16-stair double-set rails is as rad as they come.

That said, it's weird to see how a trophy race has actually developed around the Skater of the Year award. Everyone knows Oscar season, and now it's like we have SOTY season--that time of year when X number of pros are giving crazy amounts of content to Thrasher exclusively and repping the mag's merchandise (David was probably wearing more Thrasher t-shirts in that part than any of his actual sponsors) incessantly. Maybe I'm seeing through rose-tinted glasses, but it seemed like in the past a gnarly skater like Cardiel/Carrol/Rowley would just naturally kill it--and if it happened to fall conveniently in a calendar year, congratulations: here's a gold man on a chunk of parking block! Now it all seems much more contrived. Blame Phelps for always emphasizing, "...and what they did for THE MAG."

Of course, these days no one ever states it's their ambition to be SOTY (for all of Sheckler's foibles, good on him for actually admitting it); there's just faux blase instead. If people are really gunning for, I'd rather have them acknowledging it.

Oh, and in case I didn't emphasize it enough: 16-stair double-sets--GOD DAMN!

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

its a 32 stair double set. And Phelps knew what he was doing with his
'what have they done for the mag" game.
