Weird how they spelt his name wrong in the title card

Spanly is the best. Glad to see where he’s at these days, and good for him putting in the work. HORSES might be one of my all time favourite parts.

Love the trajectory his career has taken, he's the first pro that comes to mind when I think of someone "growing into their style". Him and Reynolds are holding down Baker, may just pick up one of their boards to ride (the B2 shape, ain't touching the OG Concave).

That was great, seems like he is doing well for himself.  His artwork is cool.

i would like to see a compilation of all the skate-artist profiles where they're flipping through a portfolio of drawings and they say "idk it's just all the stuff that comes out of my  brain..."

I know I'm getting old because when I watch these I just wonder how skaters afford houses in LA.

somewhere in an interview he talks about how even when he was a pile he didn't spend money.  he said that he took that from heath
i don't want to link to the channel because is promotes athiesm.

Baker should get a little heavier on the Spanly art with the decks. I usually just see brand logo series stuff in the wild. I like his designs. He's killing it on all fronts right now it seems. Good to see.

Only now I noticed he has a Viva Last Blues tattoo on his arm. Great album, might as well re-listen tonight.

Saw spankyat a demo recently. Was already a fav and even more so after. Especially hearing from my ripper friend who got some more personal moments with Spanky.

My buddy and I had a pretty cool moment and it was so funny because we made so much fun of our fan out moment. It wasn’t even that big but man, I love this dude I don’t even know.

Also, dude has the best switch bigspin ever.

Anyways loved watching this (obviously)

Definitely one of the best stories to come out of skateboarding for me.

Have a gnar for the thread title OP.

Probably my favorite comeback story in skateboarding. And he's only getting better.

Crazy to think he’s had a 20+ year career

So is he filming for a baker part currently since horses was originally for Lottie’s? I guess I’m just wondering if more spanly footy is coming.
