That triple set back 3 almost made me spit my drink out. Shane's control is crazy on some of those flip out tricks (fakie nose grind switch back heel and half cab crook nollie back heel). Also never thought I'd be hyped on a fakie willie grind but here we are, thanks Dashawn.

Shane is just so good. He's got the craziest board control. That back 3 down the triple set was insane.

only a couple tricks from yuto.

Bummer, I thought Shane was dropping a full part. This was good though. Nice to see Rayssa out in the streets.

starting to think that Noah Nayef is a once-in-a-generation type talent

Rayssa Leal back smith Hollywood 16 was so sick

wouldve loved to see the reaction of those people dashawn ran by before that back overcrook

Dashawn shut this MF down. Fakie Ollie switch back smith (fakie willie?) looked so sick and that ender was huge. Guy footage was a treat too.

How long until Rayssa is the first woman to achieve parity with male street skating standards? She’s so fucking close at what, 15?! So hyped for her career. So cool.

Shane is aging like a fine wine.

Rayssa is such a fuckin G.

Hyped on this one. Good stuff. Love seeing new Guy footage. Fugees and Cam'ron was a nice surprise

noah is so underrated I fucking love his skating

Fastest spin on a back 3 I've seen in quite some time; that was hectic!

Shane's bigspin back tail bigspin out on the curved ledge was lovely.

there's no way theres no yuto part dropping before end of year. I hate when people act like pros owe us, but we could really use a full video from April

QixHexagon · « **Reply #13 on:** November 21, 2023, 10:06:33 AM »

Noah is a beast. I thought Yuto, Dashawn and Shanne would outshine everybody but nope.

We mustn't normalize non-ironic willys. Great stuff all around otherwise.

ohtight · « **Reply #16 on:** November 21, 2023, 10:12:42 AM »

i think rayssa is gonna be one of the best skateboarders ever when its all said and done. was noah's tre flip 50 on that one rail ABD? i remember seeing it in some worble video but i could be way off. fakie ollie switch back smith is so so sick. pretty sure franky villani did one in his "november" part forever ago.

overall, i liked the edit and the music. gonna go skate now.

ShyLow · « **Reply #17 on:** November 21, 2023, 10:18:43 AM »

Never understood the appeal of the brand but the team is stacked. Great skating all the way around.

i loved that bs smith
front foot is behind the bolts, back foot toes are just slightly hanging over, heel not really hanging over at all

Is Ish the only non Nike rider? Bummer he was left out because this was a dunk promo

crescentfresh · « **Reply #20 on:** November 21, 2023, 10:27:22 AM »

i don't understand how they can have such a heavy team with such shitty board graphics

always happy to see street rayssa

oh c'mon that's not even actually a willy, he's on his back truck. just because fakie trick nomenclature is weird doesn't mean that actually translates to reality. i personally think it would be more illegal to do a fakie bs smith (on the front truck) but it would technically not be called a willy grind even though it's more willy than what Dashawn did imo

brucewillis · « **Reply #24 on:** November 21, 2023, 10:53:02 AM »

Rayssa is the future. Her new board just hit the shelves here in Brasil, i don't like their graphic but if i can get one on my size i definitely want to give her my money.

Jewel Runner · « **Reply #25 on:** November 21, 2023, 11:04:04 AM »

First time I saw Rayssa skating street and it was cool as fuck

Didn't realize april had such a solid team - I was expecting full parts tho

Say whatever you want but that fakie back smith? was gold

backspinflip · « **Reply #26 on:** November 21, 2023, 11:06:15 AM »

yeah just cause some poster called that trick a willy (after he literally almost spit his drink on his keyboard

) doesn't make it a willy.

I hate arguments about trick names. There's no logic or formula fools it's a case by case basis. It's like learning french you got the regular and irregular verbs.

Ask any real rail skater if they call it a fs overcrook. It's always these reddit-tier skaters that want to call it a shov it front board if you go to regs but a bigspin front board if to fake. Go touch some coping. Dorks

theextrabanana · « **Reply #27 on:** November 21, 2023, 11:08:31 AM »

Fakie willy is gross. Shane the goat for real. Amazing style. Not sure about the shoe tho

DMH · « **Reply #28 on:** November 21, 2023, 11:16:54 AM »

Noah Nayef is on some other shit. Wow.

Tyroneshoelaces · « **Reply #29 on:** November 21, 2023, 11:23:37 AM »

Damn that hit like a golden era Transworld opening montage. madness all around.

I really liked the fakie nosegrind drop down 180 crook. sometimes more is okay.

nollie shuv bs crooked a handrail looks so good. i may have emitted a sensual groan upon seeing that.
