The dudes skating screams confidence. He may not have the best style but it's definitely not bad. The way he just hauls ass and stomps his tricks is awesome. It seems like he fully goes for it every try, never kicks out his board.

Ya'll graspin'


I really didn't see anything to dislike about this either. Gnarly skateboarding and nothing else.
Also I quite like his style (for what it is)

Joslin must never sleep.

Keep him awake at all costs. If he sleeps...we all die.

Very impressive for 12 day of filming.
He might not have the smoothest style out there but
its not terrible, he land bolts most of the time while hucking down
some huge shit.   His flip out stuff may be sloppy, but at least it shows
he is well rounded.

Imagine if people 13 years ago were saying Arto is really gnarly but I'm just not into his skating

Ya'll graspin'

Arto has style, and I'm pretty sure he never grabbed the camera and cheered for himself like a high school linebacker.

^basically. for anyone else this would be a good part but its all the equivalent of throwaway from True.  people aren't into him for his style, so he better keep adding stairs and shit. the bs smith was really nice tho
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

^ Yeah, it is wild that he has set such a high standard for himself that this part seemed underwhelming.

This was filmed in April, so he has about 180 days in total to film for his November SOTY part with the El Toro and Wallenburg footage.  Can't wait.

I was wondering why they didn't add that footage, but now that makes sense.  Also since he is Joslin he might just release it in a couple weeks just because, then film a whole new part for November hahah.
Keep Rolling!

Like a lot of people have echoed, not really my style, but man you can't deny what he's doing. Not everything is for everyone, but damn this kid is going for it. Have to love that. And I hate to be the guy who says this, because he's the king, but if Cardiel came out now you wouldn't like the way he dressed if you're calling that on this kid.

I liked him way more after watching this, actually seeing bails, and messing with a knee brace.

That was awful. Just horrible. Worst thing on the internet right now.

Dammit he accomplished all that in 12 days and I've been at it for 12 years and haven't even come close to anything a like.
Always decent footage from this kid, skates fast and big, though I was wishing he would do something over those bushes at the last spot.

that continuous clip of him trying that back 3.  I dont get it.  I probably couldnt even kickflip on flat with a kneebrace.

that being said, i get the hate.  He's better than everyone but he seems pretty egotistical too.  Just his entourage cruising from giant unskateable spot to giant unskateable spot, praising the man, with little to do short on munch on a bag of chips and break their own boards as tribute. 

but he's really good so, yea.
