Holy shit this guy rips! Before I started watching this I took out a piece of paper and started writing down different cities I would dream to visit post-covid, I definitely added Cape Town to the list.

Is he on Anti-Hero too? He's got great style, and a seemingly great attitude.

I'd never heard of this guy, but that was ace and he's a new favourite. His insta is a treat too - completely full up with rad skating.

There is a neat interview with him here: https://soloskatemag.com/yann-horowitz-interview

He skates for one of, if not the best, shop in SA, Baseline. They sell/distro for DLX. https://baselineskateshop.com/

Look up and stay up-to-date with http://sessionmag.co.za/ for pretty much the only place that's showcasing Southern Africa.

Had a good interview on Jenkem a while back and is a regular in Freemag from Euro too.

one of my favourites, and not just because he's gay and incredibly cute, but his trick selection is so good. it's easy to tell he finds joy in doing new and interesting things, which is probably why he skates the way he does.

really good to express what a lot of us gays went through - 'i don't want to be known as 'the gay x'! and then realizing that it's cool to be that to be visible and represent! so happy

I'd never heard of him before seeing this but that opening line. Damn.  The pop shuv impressed me and the wallride varial heel flip out won me over immediately. What a rad edit. Fuck yeah.

100% on the bottom half of your comment.  I spent 15 years trying to simply be a "skateboarder" and hiding who i was from my whole community.  its crazy how the last few years I (we all) have realized the importance of being that shining light of representation and visibility.  if even one kid looked at my grip or my shirt or knew who I was and it helps them realize you can be proud of your sexuality AND kick flip back tail like a boss, that's truly all you can ask for.

That was really good. I love Andrew Allen but this dude skates like AA and takes it way up.

Jenkem did in my opinion a much better job of this 3 years ago, great interview, great part.
