I found it really interesting that Pedro Delfino has a youtube channel with some vlog style content, I didn't think a "hesh" dude like him would want to make content like this. He breaks down his set up for bombing hills in this video and he has some other random videos too

Very soothing presentation. I appreciate that he did not adopt that unbearable youtube mode of speech, and quick editing. I like this young man.

He has some cool bts style content on his page.

He strikes me as a life-long learner type, a mindful hellrider.

Definitely not used to seeing those two words together

He is way more softly spoken than i would have imagined. That was a cool video. I am so glad that I have nothing to prove and no desire to bomb hills.

For one of the most gnarly skaters out there, which can carry a stigma, he seems very compassionate, kind and genuine. Likely to sub on YouTube

That would make sense. This „tutorial“ on how to hillbomb did not sound like it was coming from the reckless Pedro we know from his death defying clips. It sounds like someone told him he had to do more social media content and when he asked what he should do, after intense brainstorming session the creative department came to the conclusion that he was good at hillbombing so he should speak about it. But please make sure you remind people to do it responsibly because if they slam or get hit by a car claiming they followed your instructions you (we) are getting sued to oblivion. Anyway that‘s how it came across to me.

That being said, Pedro comes across as a kind guy with that soft voice. Stoked to see he‘s not an asshole.

In related news, Figgy apparently has a youtube channel now too. I'm pretty sure its legit as alot of the shorts are alt angles of tricks not available anywhere else. Maybe Indy or BakerBoys has a dope youtube incentive.

how is it that there are still so many abandoned pools in existence? i think i really just cant comprehend the sheer size of the Los Angeles area. How long do spots like this typically last?

I've confused Pedro with Ronnie more than once already... Or was it the other way around!? I'm not sure if I should watch this vid, I might lose it completely.

In one of the comments someone asked him about the altercation at Stoner park. Is it true then that he broke his jaw because he got in someone’s way at the park and they just sucker punched him?

In case anyone in this thread hasn't already seen it, Pedro had a sick part in this Homies video starting at about 4:30 - but he's also got clips pretty much throughout the whole thing too.

This is probably the best one yet. Skating by Roman Pabich, Ronnie Sandoval, and Tyson Peterson. And an appearance by Fred Gall at the end

I think this is rad.  most pro's are broke.  if this is a way to support himself and allow us to get to know how hard he goes, his process etc... I totally back it.  He's way more chill than I thought he would be for whatever reason.

His channel is fun, and he never once has said "like and subscribe".

So I hit like, and subscribed.

Amazing. gets up super early to bomb unknown hills solo with loose hardware and nearly takes out a construction worker. This is way better than any Zach Dowdy/ Dan Corrigan/ AA episodes... Pedro is so understated and nonchalant. Love it.

his videos are so wholesome. just goes out in the morning to skate some hills alone and lets his viewers be a part of it. he even put a cute little essay in the beginning in which he states that he doesnt know wether hill is a verb or a noun

I'm a fan, none of the Youtuber schtick, just a guy on his morning hill bomb. Amazing he's doing them on F4 99a, some of those spots look crusty and steep.

I think he setup some 97 spits radial fulls in the previous videos and they seem like the same wheels.  :) I love that wheel for bombing hills, much more control in powerslides and turns.

I was gonna post this....I used to live near this "steepest street in Paris", him bombing that thing solo, on the narrow sidewalk and then straight to the cobblestones, is just nuts. serious slam factor. Also he took the time to answer my fanboi comment, seems like such a chill dude. I was already a fan of his skating but now even more so. I'll say it again: Paris hills are still under-used and under-appreciated. still disappointed the GX guys did not skate them when they came.
