I wonder how good the primitive check is for him to not just get on heroin already. I still think guest deck a few months ago was supposed to be his pro model when primitive was looking rough last year.

Its really weird. Given Heroin is the best selling brand in skateboarding.
They should be able to pay him well. Specially when he would be their superstar rider.

Primitive haters are so funny.

Dude could be this productive if he was not on Primitive? I like the way the brand push their riders to film projects and part was really fun to watch. Frank seems happy.

I mean it is right now but fos seems pretty smart and we saw what’s happened with welcome. Could just be one of those things where primitive just being a super established brand with good connections and heroin while being around for like20 years now has always been a pretty small brand and is having its moment . With them being good friends I could see him not wanting to get franky on and then sales go sour and he can’t afford to keep him around.

Plus he has a good arrangement  now with the eggs and having a decent amount of fos graphics since he’s been pro for primitive.

I feel like he’s changed up his trick selection from his earlier parts, I’m thinking no cash value (still my favorite of his), and that dickies part with blink 182 and he’s leaning into more tech shit now. It’s fine, but it doesn’t quite hit the same as before. I liked the pole jam forward flip thing and the sw big heel was well done.

Wasn't there a rumor a couple years ago that Trent was making $100k from primitive? If he's making that I bet Franky is making more but the economy has changed so who knows.

A ways out of my musical norms but i actually really liked that song and it worked great with the edit!

What seemed by the reaction first try Half Cab flip was insane/ flawlessly executed!

The HAT CATCH! Easily Hat Catch Of The Year!

loved the sw heel - cab line to open...classy stuff.

Still the oddest board brand home going fit wise, he would fit on many teams and has significant leverage. Maybe Dylan to Quasi (Best team out) will inspire young Franklin Villani (My ex's last name)

I’m part of that primitive don’t look like his flow camp. But then again seems like his whole persona is going against the grain so who knows. Always a fun watch tho

not a Primitive fan but their video program is extremely solid and productive so i'm never mad about someone i like being on the team. you know if someone's on Primitive you're gonna see their footy regularly.

i would also actually argue that the influence of skating with the Primitive team is actually a positive for Franky. he clearly has a penchant for wacky tricks and being influenced by a bunch of guys with more traditional tech trick selection is actually probably good for keeping him on the tasteful side of the line. if he was on Heroin or Welcome or whatever with no guardrails and skating with a bunch of dudes who are also doing wacky stuff, i could see him taking it too far. he's right in the sweet spot right now. love everything he does

Franky is too cool for heroin. Did you watch mutate or die? I don't think he's a good fit.

greet skating though. Dudes so well rounded. Has the creativity, but will still fs flip a double set to check the box.

I see what you did there. Haha.


I do like Franky on Primitive cause it just makes their team more diverse with him on it. I looked at their team page and they really just need to get rid of Robert Neal. Everyone else produces footage. And I am definitely getting an Aimu board when he turns pro.

Met Frankie at a Weekend Nachos show last year in LA, dude was sweating his ass out in the mosh pit like a real G.
I approached him when grabbing a drink and ended up chatting for a bit. He was so chill and nice to talk to. Definitely one of the nicest Pro's I've met.
I love how he has this "goofy" personality but doesn't feel like a gimmick to mask any lack of skill, dude goes big and goes as tech as anyone if not better, always creative and is a footage machine. This part is just another testament to that, he's in his own lane. Big Big fan.

I mean, gotta be, right? I watched this last night and have been trying to think of other hat catches but I'm totally drawing a blank. I know for certain I've seen them before but I can't think of a single one, which kinda already tells me there's not a better one out there, surely I'd remember it.

pretty sure on epicly laterd or something liek that, reynolds said heroin was the best selling brand in baker boys distribution. People have now made the jump for that to mean "best selling brands in skateboarding" (not a huge leap tbh)
even the way I am relaying this to you know could be "chinese telephone" i honestly dont remember where I saw this. I wouldnt be surprised though, I see tons of Heroin boards in the wild. But I see more way more bakers... so Im not even sure that's true anymore. A few years ago for sure Heroin > Baker. But idk about now.

This was probably only took him like 10 hours to get all these clips including driving from his house etc. i love how he always films tons of local stuff / never before seen spots. he very often posts clips to his instagram of practicing at the skateparks by his house too. He must have an incredibly powerful core because he skates A LOT. He fs flipped the huge set at that skatepark  Geoff Rowley designed just for funsies recently.

If Primitive loses Alan Hannon and Eric Iwakura they would be barbequed. their videos would be crap without those 2. they are some of the most professional in the business imo. The team of primitive is actually really awesome, the graphics and owners just suck. the boards are really good. from time to time they hit with a tasteful cut + sew shirt or sport jacket, but 95% of their clothing is a miss for actual skateboarders seemingly. More in line with like zoomiez weed socks virginity rocks type shit.

Just for the hell of it I looked at MexicanSpaniard's profile and goddamn rawbertson that dude hates you more than I've ever hated anybody in my life.
Like half his posts over the last year or so have been complaining about you and telling you to shut up.
Did you bully him in high school or date his mom or something?

I mean, gotta be, right? I watched this last night and have been trying to think of other hat catches but I'm totally drawing a blank. I know for certain I've seen them before but I can't think of a single one, which kinda already tells me there's not a better one out there, surely I'd remember it.

tj rogers headphone catch after switch back lip the skydome 13 gotta be up there

Can't find the clip, but Hjalte Halberg has been documented catching a hat just as smooth as Franky Villani.

And i think we dont really appreciate how sick it is that he has a pro shoe for nb. Actually 2, mids and lows.

Right next to Thiago, Foy and Reynolds.

He's so fresh! One of my favourites. I don't care who he skates for.

I get that few of us really like Primitive but it is pretty cool that Paul obviously is a fan and lets Frankie do whatever he wants.

Based off Jaeb, prod isn’t much involved with staffing

Met Frankie at a Weekend Nachos show last year in LA, dude was sweating his ass out in the mosh pit like a real G.
I approached him when grabbing a drink and ended up chatting for a bit. He was so chill and nice to talk to. Definitely one of the nicest Pro's I've met.
I love how he has this "goofy" personality but doesn't feel like a gimmick to mask any lack of skill, dude goes big and goes as tech as anyone if not better, always creative and is a footage machine. This part is just another testament to that, he's in his own lane. Big Big fan.

Frankie being a WN fan is not surprising and also makes me like him even more. Powerviolence royalty.

Oh my god, not even close. Go spin some Crossed Out, MITB, Infest, or Scapegoat for contemporary stuff, and forget Weekend Nachos ever existed. Sucks to even type that band name out lol
