Seems like the first part from Nick since the whole "reinvention" of his style/trick selection. Skating real spots the way he does Cherry park.
-
love the trick selection and the grabs, this guy is seeing shit most people dont. ender is fucked
-
That was insane
Big fan
-
Damn bs noseslide to bs noseblunt. Never thought of that possibility
-
Loved it. I'm not one who cares about "illegal" tricks, but there's a few in this part that are straight to skate Guantanamo.
Giant pole jam to the ditch and the ender were both insane.
-
some gnaarly shit in there.
had to rewatch a bunch of those tricks a few times
-
that was sick. rolling down that last triple bank switch was insane. dig the rudi p song choices as well
-
Sick. He should get on Fancy Lad.
-
That was incredible. Illegal stuff was done well IMO
-
Really enjoyed that
Those spots, those pants, those ledge dances: paging special agent dale cooper what year is this
Ender was nervous
-
When did this dude get fun to watch?? This was great!! Ender was bananas, tailslide to front blunt was awesome.
-
did he take dmt recently or something?
love this weird ass shit, not sure how well rudimentary peni fits in with 'flowers for mom', but that's cool i guess lol
-
I wanted to dislike it after the third street grab but this was a fun part to watch. Lots of cool ledge combos and the ender was awesome.
-
that ender was fucking nuts.
-
WOW That Ender was WILD!! Almost took his head off on that pole at the bottom.
Taking the concept of 'Illegal Tricks' and tossing it right out the window. It's not what you do it's how you do it
-
Def not the Nick Garcia I remember watching. That was unexpected, and bonkers.
-
not sure what ya'll talking about. Nick has always been sick. especially the last 4-5 years.
really refreshing to see someone using their skateboard in a unique way. i feel like so much of what comes out nowadays is just the same old shit.
nice job breaking the mold on this one
-
Holy shit!
-
These were impressive.

man's mind was pumping like the title sequence of "limitless" on this one
-
So sick, one of my favorite styles in skating. Not a fan of all of those combos, but noseslide bs Smith was really cool. Ender is one of the most fucked up things I've seen in a while
-
Nick is the one with insanely hot wife who doesn’t do flip tricks and Julian is the newly sober one who only does kickflips right? Why did Julian get the sponsor glow up when Nick is going this hard ?
-
that was incredibly sick. despite being aware of this dude for what seems like a decade, i've never really seen him do anything memorable before this, but I'm 100% convinced now. illegal as it might be, the fucking foot-clutch bunny hop thing over the picnic table is absolutely fucked. loved every second of this, fully a fan
-
Agree with everything positive in this thread! Such a rad ender as well
-
that was sick, the ender was absolutely bonkers.
-
I have been a fan of this guys for ages now and I totally get the Julian/Baker thing. Nick would have been a much better fit. Imo of course.
That part almost made me wanna buy some Etnies…
-
that ender was fucking nuts.
Man was about 1 inch from serious brain damage
Also he's lucky he could walk after those slams
-
That was sick. I've always thought he had great style and talent but this phase in his career is really special.
-
Would be stoked if Nick was like, "I wanted to pay homage to Foundation's Art Bars"
-
No part of this felt natural to me.. it all came off as so forced
-
How the fuck is that ender possible.
-
glick-mode engage
-
Some mean combos. Ender was so crazy.
-
One of the most underrated dudes, his peace part used to be one of my favorite parts to watch. Insane gnarly spots.
-
I was shocked by nearly every clip. Seems like he's just having fun and really pushing himself in some new directions.
Sick shit.
-
Trick of the year so far.
-
Whoa, that part was incredible. Glad Element can keep guys like this.
-
So fucking sick like the gnar version of nerd tricks
-

he did a bs noseblunt on that bank to wall at the jimi hendrix school in his peace part. one of the gnarliest things that didn’t really get talked about

That’s unfortunately what happens when you paywall videos nowadays

Cool to have dedicated this to his mom and have the old footage mixed in.
Lots of cool combo tricks, really liked the Tailslide front shuv to 5-0.
-
Super sick video.
-

Did his mom die or does he just really like and appreciate her? I hope she‘s alright.

she passed away like last year

Getting the Clive treatment I see
-
How the fuck is that ender possible.
yeah that was fucked. he almost got beheaded by the pole.
-
First person to skate to Rudimentary Peni ? (it's an old song plus a new song which is cool).
(Off the top of my head can't think of anyone else).
Love nick's skating - so glad it's him...
-
Element back again
-
For a long time I just considered him that one fool in element that didn't do any flip tricks BUT I think he finally figured out how to make that his strength. Lot of borderline illegal tricks but he committed to the shit and pulled it off. This was sick and I'm now a fan. Only took a decade of being on the team but better late than never.
-
Sucks this dude has to wear etnies

Watch Johnny Wilson videos
-
Wow, all of it was bonkers
-
First song sounded liked something from alien's cinematography part. Great part, all those noseslide to something were awesome. Ender was wild, has anybody done anything switch there before 🥴
-
I much prefer his previous trick selection but if he enjoys this makeover, more power to him. Ender was absolutely incredible though. One of the gnarliest tricks I have seen in a while.
-
one "ski jump trick" would have sufficed imo but overall very refreshing and sick part
-
How the ender could've went:

Whoa, that part was incredible. Glad Element can keep guys like this.
I was just thinking Element can take advantage of the Heart Supply being so wack, Johnny Shcillereff and Nyjah being out, and the recent Trung Nguyen part (dark slide the curve rail on the classic element logo board) and rebuild a sick team and image. I sense a return to normcore aesthetics coming this year and classically uncool brands like element may have a chance if they play it right.

Hard agree, Normcore is coming in hot lol. My indecisive outfit crisis ass is gonna finally feel comfortable at the local spot soon.
-
Wow I wonder how many of those tricks are NBDs?

Wray's fit looks straight outta an old navy catalog hahah
haven't seen one of these 'listen to bob marley' shirts make their way out of the woodwork just yet

Ender was insane. A lot of cool shit but that indygrab crook to switch 5-0 thing on the bank grabbing the whole time was so ass
-
stray thoughts:
i'll be thinking about just that ender more than i will ever collectively think about certain entire full lengths (i thought plan b put out a video called 'true to this', so...) so kudos.
i think chicagof was probably the first to use rudi peni, and it was sick.
bill pepper standing on his board primo and still being the second or third shortest out of the seven dudes in the photo is incredible.
-
what a heavy watch!

Wow NICK GARCIA rips.
This might be one of the most enjoyable parts I've watched this year.
Refreshingly creative to say the least.
Hope he's getting paid well by his sponsors.
Condolences to him and his family for their loss - RIP Mom Gar
-
that boy good
-
Some of those funky variation tricks gave me heavy Mariano vibes, especially the front tail to front blunt and the front tail kickflip 5-0. So sick.
-
Absolutely fucked, so much style and skill and he always goes maximum warp. Last trick must be among the gnarliest things done on a board.
