what the fuck!!! You gotta be out of your fucking mind to roll up to Wallenberg at that age.

Couldn't have been more than 10 tries given how similar that looked to his Carlsbad switch hardlfip. Anybody know?

3rd or 4th frame should be silhouetted on a board or tee or something.

Brandon Turner has to me the cross generational street skater, he's one of the only child star street skaters that didn't fizzle out early and is now almost 40 and still doing it. I know Eric Dressen did it sorta similar but he's been more legend status the early 90s, besides his stints in jail Brandon Turner has been on top of his game since he was 10? I think his first clips show up around 93-94

My vote for trick of the year.

 Saw him the day after he did it at the Linda Vista park with his hand chewed up from it. From the Sk8mafia insta stories I figured he was just up there so I asked.   He stated he skated it solo with Wes on hand for the hype man.  I was really hoping this would have been kept secret until the Sk8Mafia vid that is about to drop.  Power of Thrasher being the main media source I guess. Chapter closed for B and another historic trick in the record books for the Berg.  So hyped for him.

 Well if you follow the Sk8mafia insta stories you can see Dan Connelly is busy in the editing booth showing who's part he's working on. B Turners s/w hard flip probably sealed up his portion.   Additionally Alexis is out with Rhino constantly in october, at UCI yesterday.  Thinking Alexis is making a final push for SOTY.   Betting the vid drops by Dec 1.

Thrasher owns the roll in, they may also have a connect with the school to get access, so the deal is Thrasher will get the haul and the ramp so they have control of the photos, if you make it they get the pics, if you don't make it you have to pay for the Uhaul.

Understandable that Thrasher has the rights to the photos, but personally I feel it would have been better revealed in the video.  Then again only .0000001% of skateboarders look at the message board and/or care about these types of ethics.

I'll never complain about skating into old age for as long as I live. Good lord. It's completely absurd that this went down and is actually real.

That shit is unbelievable. Dude is an inspiration coming back from all that he dealt with. Trick of the year, no fucking doubt.

came here to say the same thing. big respect. major shalom. ss tre and ss hardflip general.

also to chime in regarding thrasher publishing before the video, is it because nobody could keep quiet about something like this? ah thats a dumb statement. truthfully, i think i'd rather see the photo first, then the clip shortly after unless its the ender especially when the photo/sequence is more about the trick than the composition or the spot with a vibe separating the two. the video feels like a fuller experience than a still image, like i'd feel more satiated watching the porno than flipping through the magazine. im an idiot.

what the fuck!!! You gotta be out of your fucking mind to roll up to Wallenberg at that age.

Couldn't have been more than 10 tries given how similar that looked to his Carlsbad switch hardlfip. Anybody know?

3rd or 4th frame should be silhouetted on a board or tee or something.

4th or 5th would be amazing on a tee, can't decide which would be better tho

Commenting again four pages later to say I still don’t believe this. It can’t be real. I’m like that little kid that watched Jeremy Wray ollie that giant gap in the color video, I’m in disbelief of what I just saw.
If this doesn’t get him at least a SOTY nomination then there is no justice in the world.
That would be a gnarly enough trick for like a young gun to do, but the fact that Brandon Turner did it, at the age of 39, almost two decades after he first did it down Carlsbad, is really fucking with my head right now.

not really adding anything to the conversation, but fuck yes! I've not clicked on this thread a few times for some reason assuming it was a hypothetical or a joke or something.

shorty's was the shit, brandon was/is the shit {for some reason his boardslide on a canoe/kayak/boat in guilty flashes through my mind at random parts of the day all the time - it's really not special, but it lives on}

boatslides aside, this is amazing! can't wait to see the video!

So Lindsey Roberston did both heelflip and bs heel at the two spots. He really nailed both tricks at Wallenberg, but all his tricks were done at comps. Still cool, but what Brandon Turner has done is almost unbelievable. 

Lil B did his tricks 20 years apart. All on his own terms. You could say he did it for the culture.

Fuck. Merlino was on one this day.

I'm sure people are talking shit on the roll in (it's literally the only way to skate it) but i bet they'd think twice if someone told them they to do that 1st twice.  it's sketchier than it looks!
