If that

Hes basically all switch and just does spins since 2012

He couldve been one of the best skaters of 2010 - 2020 probably

So 100% power would be a bigspin out of a switch blunt on a ditch instead of a 270 out?

He skates like a Skate 3 character with the style attributes set to Hunched and OG, which everyone knows looks like shit.  Standard and Loose is the only acceptable setting.

Probably a lot of skaters that never reached their potential due to injuries, the irony being that it's usually seems to be the simpler tricks people wreck themselves on or something non-skating related.

Vinnie has my all time respect for being one of the few pro skaters who genuinely seems to enjoy ripping his own driveway.

Agreed. I wouldn’t want my character skating like Vinnie Anderson.

He was a full powerhouse in pretty sweet
He wasn’t strictly low impact yet.
Good handrail and flip tricks, and has an awesome switch front bars pop over 270.
Watch on mute if you have time but this is an all time great pet imo. Editing isn’t that great but the skating is great.
I’m a fat Siamese cat.

I like Vincent Alvarez a lot. I loved his part in bunny hop. I think he has a super unique style that is prefect for chocolate in my opinion. There's something about Vincent's skating that sort of reminds me of something like Gabriel Rodriguez or Paulo Diaz in the sense that his style / trick selection is so distinct.

I mentioned this before but I felt his pretty sweet part was insane footage but I really didn't enjoy the edit. I'd love to see a re-edit. I think he probably could still skate like that physically but he's skating what he wants and how he wants. I thought his part was sick and in the tradition of unique/distinct Chocolate style and was deserving to be ender. I still think my favorite part might be his welcome to chocolate part.

His instagram is a good follow - he's a skate rat and didn't make an instagram until quarantine. He posted a switch blunt switch heel out on that brick quarter pipe that he had his tricks on right before the switch wallie ender like 6 months ago or so. I liked this quarantine part during the beginning of the lockdown. (Not related but Chris Jones quarantine part free skate mag posted was awesome too).
