Burman trick didn't fit, loved his hype on the front feeble, and nobody ever met this guy, but the diagnoses seems spot on:

Burmans homies with him, Burman took a liking to him straight after OIAM came out and hit him up and they started skating together.

That's cool, but the trick still seems out of place.

Maybe if Burman would have blown some weed smoke or drank an airplane shot.

maybe it's just me, but I watched this, thought about how gnarly it was for a few seconds and haven't thought about/watched it since. the era of the online part is just far too forgettable.
skating is all about choosing your outfit very deliberately, going out in public. looking super sick. and then riding your board a little bit

Thrasher should be sending out a DVD of this with December's issue instead of Bake and Destroy.

He put in too much work to have this be forgotten in the abyss of the interweb.

Was looking to see if the wonderful Banana wax quote by Forrest in blurst_of_times sig had been discussed anywhere, but ended up in this topic. This could use a rewatch! When Pontus talks about putting on the weird ripping skaters, it would be nice if he could put on Forrest! This part is still beyond many pro parts (and 8 years old?!)

Hell of a bump, nice one. The trick level here is easily higher than in 95 % of all gap and rail parts released in the past few years. Insane part.

If he does, he better give him 10 pairs...

dude was good but 90% of his tricks looked like pure shit

Also Shane's nollie back heel at wallenberg makes that forrest one look like child's play

This guy is living proof that there's more to pro skateboarding than just being an amazing skater.

Someone should just put him on, send 10 bloards every few weeks, and just let him keep posting selfie videos  skating 15 rails alone. I feel like a board with his name on it would actually sell really well.

I stopped following him on instagram because his selfie clips are super dry and boring but it seems he's sponsored by several weed companies which is probably much more lucrative than a budget brand board sponsor.
