Calling it right now.  July 5th.  Soty.  Not because I like him more than Louie or anyone in particular, I just have a feeling Thrasher’s gonna give it to someone gnar after Suciu and this guy is leading the pack.

Finally?   This is Daan/Foy levels quick, no?   Not that it’s undeserved by any means

It's relatively quick, yeah. I figured he'd be pro in another year or so. When an am is pretty hot they get turned pro fast, same thing happened with Darrell Stanton and Ramondetta back in the day for example.

And also with his kind of skating I think it makes sense for a brand to turn him, and other skaters like him, pro earlier, while they're in their prime. With the importance of being "pro as fuck" for a board not nearly what it once was, there's little sense in letting what would otherwise be a highly marketable pro waste their time as an am so they can "pay their dues".

Especially with Provost and Blake's departure, it probably made room and made it easier for him to go pro – not like he didn't deserve it already.

agreed and his sponsors lose risk of him going the austin stephens/jeremy leabres route being a big handrail/hucker type of skateboarder. not that those guys ever put out what i thought was bad footage or anything, they just turned pro right after putting out heavy parts in their prime and then got hurt & slowly lost the ability to skate the way they had been prior to that. the caliber of shit he’s doing along with the risk only make sense for him to have a board already, well deserved in my eyes.

imagine fucking the dog shit outta chris roberts

Not to mention Axel who just kinda went under the radar after going pro/switching to vans euro

I’m happy for the guy especially after bs noseblunting then kickflip bs noseblunting that UCI ledge.  That was a trick that lived in my mind for 20 years and I’m glad someone did it the way I was picturing after Jake Hayes did it, but kinda had too much pop for it to live up to what I thought it should look like

I know it's kind of a corny contest and all but he really did fuck up that SLS Hubba Hideout recreation. Like no one really came close to putting down what he did.
them cats are out getting mashed up to jungle, he's out mashing up jungle cats. it's just not gonna work.

Smart for Ed to not sleep on turning him pro. Someone bigger could have snagged him up real quick.

Sinclair.   

I think Ed has as much to do with Toy these days as Gonz does with Krooked.   Just scribbles some art down and emails it in the distribution co

He's been hanging with Chris Gregson a lot which means I hope he's stacking footage for either a Thunder and/or Spitfire part. Been waiting for it since he switched over to them.
