In the entire decade I've spent posting on slap, not once did I take the time to say anything positive about Felipe Gustavo, so let it be my first. I had no idea he's that consistent, smooth and hardworking at demos. The sw fs flip nosegrind back to switch was super nonchalant.

Felipe really stood out in this which is saying something considering the crew. So many crazy technical tricks at the demos.

looks like he started skating faster or something because i rarely remember shit from him but this was really good

He’s been my example of a ‘guilty pleasure’ type. 2 things that have kinda plagued him weren’t present: complex flip trick into extremely minimal grind (more like a pivot off of the ledge), and some brutal 360 flip ‘steer’ (his 360 flip over that bench was great!).

Yeah credit where credit is due, Felipe crushed every stop. Never been a fan of his skating but I was in this edit. His flip into ledge game is razor sharp.

Mariah rips, proper flick. Hope she's got a full part coming soon.
Overall an awesome compilation. All substance, no filler. The usual suspects never fail to impress (Busenitz and Silas).

But yeah, Felipe and Mariah definitely upped their games.

Eastland is done?

Unfortunately the diy at around 5 mins recently got destroyed in Charlotte. Place was awesome.

Eastland and the farmers market next to it got burnt for a fucking like brewery or something about a month ago. I think that officially makes Charlotte the least skateable major metropolitan area in the US? That would be an interesting conversation

@rocklobster that footage is from a tour that was late last year. Zero, toy, adidas, and I think Red Bull (Jamie foy was here) all rolled thru before and after Tampa

Also tanner van cork did this insane noseblunt nollie flip out on the hard to skate bowl wall. He did it like 15 times as the first trick setup for a line. It was the hardest trick in the line imo
