I'm glad they chose somebody so well spoken to kick off this series.

Never been into VAs skating. I think if he could grow a proper moustache, I might.

This dufe fucking sucks, cant get why people are hyped on such a generic looking, awful pusher that does a bunch of switch blunt bullshit on banks like its a real trick, let your local juan sanchez do that.

I was sold on the dude when I saw how fucked he likes his spitfires. He was basically skating on heptagons.

He seems like a super nice dude that everyone loves.

That being said, I think he is constantly doing the same tricks and has the worst style.

how could you box VA into someone that has a shitty push and does the same tricks? he's skating outside the school yards in LA on some crusty ass sidewalks/streets with imperfections everywhere going mock 10. ya don't fuggin get it!

This series should have about 8 people saying their favorite skaters in the same time. I was pretty over it after 30 seconds.

I think the series could be pretty cool. They should just pick somebody who doesn't say "like" every other word. (I know, high standards.)


That Skate Hoarder thing they're doing is a neat idea, and Josh Kalis was a good guest to kick it off because he's interesting and can speak reasonably well in front of a camera. I don't have anything against VA, but he seems to have the personality of a potato.

Wow, you are all tripping, he is one of the fastest, most creative, and gnarliest skaters we've had in recent years. He defines street skating.

Say what you want, but he has an original style. I have always been a fan of his. I just find it exiting to watch him skate.
Ty Evans really fucked up when he edited his part in "Pretty Sweet" So many good tricks in there made so unbarable by terrible editing and music choices. I think VA would be in a different place careerwise if someone with a better taste had edited this part.
