that spot seems too good to be true it looks like a perfect little hubba in the middle of some crazy busy spot... yeah its not really a "perfect" spot but i know for sure i could knock out a grind or two on it.
I'm not doubting you but on a real note , there's hardly an edge on that hubba so good luck

Straight beamin! You always post about sick tricks you "bang out" and how good you are but ive never seen or heard of any black guy from kitchener who rips considering i live one town over.  You need some evidence.

eli seems a little douchie after reading that interview.

you seem a little bitter because eli is one of the nicest guys out there.




venture has been making 5.25 high and lows for years now. 
with so many heads skating bigger boards, venture decided to make more colors available for their wider trucks.

haha im not black and i didnt film anything for like 3 years. i filmed an entire part in 2 months we finally got our shit together to edit the video but i have to do it all at my friend's house but that is coming out and you can see the footage. and i have never claimed anything that is even remotely difficult so i dont know why you are hating. i have skated for over 10 years i dont roll with your crew thats all there is to it. lots of people know me but i dont introduce myself to people or nothing like that i just go to spots and skate them and thats that.

No doubt. Anyone who hates on Eli is lame in my opinion. Dude is just super charismatic and nice, smiling from ear to ear whenever he's skating and getting hyped

eli kills is pretty solid.
been riding some venture low 5.2
i get them raw and paint the base plate.
the 5.2 highs are like anti skatetool.  but the high do have a ton of king pin clearence if thats an issue for ya.
i use a bones medium bushing on the bottom. and stock top. i think they turn better with that set up.. and it lowers the kingpin bold more.

no offense but it doesn't really mean anything to say you filmed a part in X amount of time unless you have a concrete example of it being good, i could film a 3 minute part in 2 hours

this and the supreme court switch flip are mind-bogglingly good tricks, i love eli's loose style. always seems like he's about to miss but then he pulls it off...that's fun to watch!
