Dang how old is some of this footage? There is a vintage LOVE Park clip tossed in at the 2:45 mark.

Was that the first FS Suciu grind on a handrail?

That was fucked. Unpopular opinion but better than Yuto’s part.

I love Yuto but gotta second this. The skating, editing, and music were all fantastic. One of the best stand alone parts in a long time.

Agreed. I expected 4 minutes of credits or to want it to end early, but no, that was truly exceptional.

Absolutely incredible on all fronts.

I checked to see if the credits were about to roll and I couldn’t believe it had been 9 minutes and I was on the last trick. I coulda sworn there were 7 minutes left at least!

Damn. Agreed that this is one of the best parts of the year. He's been crushing for the last few years. He's already had a part in Sabotage and his welcome to Alien part this year.

Incredible skating, spots, trick selection.  The filming/editing is so good.  Mulhern is the best.  My fav part of the year so far too.

Top notch, dudes got it all. Doesn't this dude work full time too? Feel like I read that in an interview recently. Dude deserves a check and travel budget. This was amazing 9 min part no filler.

Jesus. Dude is too good. Been hyped on him for  while now.

Was that last song in an Alien video/edit before or was it just really, really similar?

AVE Dancing on Thin Ice. Might as well have used the same song.

He never fails to impress me. Totally agree that this is one of the best parts of the year. Music was mediocre, but didn't detract from the heaviness of the footage.

Great addition by Alien Workshop. Chris Mulhern is one of the best as well.

I see hints of Busenitz and Suciu in his skating. Maybe it's juts the shoes  ::)

I could have sworn it was used in an old Photosynthesis 411 commercial or something too, but I could be wrong.

Damn, long time since I heard that name. When my folks lived in Tucson I was at the park one day and ran into Robin - had no idea he had moved there. Skated with him on the next couple of visits and then lost track of him. Hope he's doing well wherever he is.

That was fucking beautiful. That's a modern classic. The way the whole thing was put together. Can't fault it. Adidas please pay this guy.

I see him around SF every few weeks, think he lives somewhere near the panhandle
