really sick. Hope black label start doing more. No reason they couldn't enjoy a foundationesque resurgence with guys like this on the team and a decent filmer/editor.

Grabs out of grinds is a trend I can get behind. Lots of scope for people to make it look ill and others to look like painful tryhards.

That was so good! I always forget I follow him on IG and when his clips pop up I’m always stoked!
Dude rips!
A black label resurgence would be sick! I could other some new Chris Troy footage and Jake Reuter is amazing too!

seems like a solid addition.
maybe i'm mistaken, but seems like the first Label footage I've seen since God Save the Label? (which is twelve years ago!)

Vallejo spot sighting! Dope bumpy ledge-to step grinder combo. Fun spot! Starts approximately 2:37

that was dope!  There were a couple interesting pool clips in there but I feel like most of the pool stuff could've been cut out.  Part really hit it's stride from the Protrero stuff onwards.

Yeah that blew my mind. Hard to imagine committing to a wallride at those speeds.

I was excited to see something from the V but when i went back and looked it definitely appeared to be the Emeryville spot on Hollis.
