Was about to post this. Adelmo is soo sick, still killing it with the dopest style.
-
Inspiration from a legend. Great song and good vibes.

big fan
aging like fine wine

Sick
-
Good to see his dreads are back.
-
I used to be so scared that his dreads would get caught on his wheels whilst landing.
-
Awesome part, I can't believe he's still ripping pretty hard. I still think of him any time I see somebody shifty a nollie a little bit.
I don't think I've ever liked a late shove-it trick, but that ender was great!
-
Such sick style.
-
did he really grow dreads back to his ass? i've never really grown long hair so i have no idea, but it seems like it would take a long ass time.
maybe the whole wrongfully in jail thing happened longer ago than i thought

imagine the length of his dreads if they never cut them. skateboarding should be easier not that he has less weight on his shoulders
-
Was hoping for footage of Adelmo and his family riding over the Slap Pal at the water park

I always loved that 7.5 deck and those yellow ventures!
And damn, I'm only 10 seconds in and that nollie 180, my god! This guy oozes style out of his pores.
edit: Wallie back noseblunt was fucked!

Fuck that’s even gnarlier!

every interview he had was so positive, that just seeing his name inspires me to be more positive
always loved his style and trick selection, i feel lucky to have seen this

super stoked for this and all the Adelmo Jr love :) i really loved his skating in the Organika heyday , and had a chance to meet him at a kayo demo around 2007 or so ... he was just as cool and kind as any of u can imagine ! and his style translates perfectly from video to seeing him skate your local park. awesome part and i especially loved the nollie tricks he got on transition throughout the part. didnt realize he had instagram, went there and found this killer clip

Weird question but thought I'd ask since I know you hail from around DC - was this the demo they did at duke street (in Alexandria)? I remember them coming to town around that time and recall skating pulaski with Adelmo and Kenny Hoyle too if I remember right. I was also at that demo if it was the same one you are talking about haha

Actually seeing this I just now realized most of this might old footage since you can even see a few Organika boards in the part. Still, fuck it shit was so good
-
damn gaunt we were at the same demo ! that's the one 8) not really my local per se, but a local area park nonetheless ... anyway yeah thats the one !!! kenny hoyle definitely ripped that demo, thats rad that you skated pulaski with those two as well! hell yeah
yeah sosa u can def see the time disparities based on dread length throughout the part, but yeahhh still the good shit

got to skate with Adelmo one day back in the early 00's. He lands so lightly but you hear the dreads slapping everywhere. Laid back chill type of cat.

I grew my hair for 11 years. A lot of people have been asking, “How do you feel without all that weight on your head?” For me there is no difference. Skating seems the same. I had short hair back in the day. But it’s already started growing back.
