He made a lot of good decisions and retired early.

I know he has been frequenting Arizona in the past year.

Dude is sort of a kook though, so I'm not expecting much outta him.
But, I would love to see another part like his transworld part. One of my favorites.

I frequently get Nick Trepasso and Antwuan Dixon confused.

Man, when and now came out his skating changed shit for me. I remember how desperately bad I wanted half cabs with the black foxing on the toe and orange socks.

He had one of the most natural relaxed styles. He's a legend. Sad he left Toy.

I actually like trapasso and sinner. LE was like straight out of a 16 year old stoners mind, complete with dubstep.

I know he lived in Long beach and once saw a post of Scott Kane selling Trapasso's house a while back.

If Aatila reads this, do you still see him around since i know you are a Long Beach local.

As far as Trapasso goes, does anyone else think his style was a tad bit forced?

Kinda, during the Prevent the Tragedy vid he does a crooks bonk and afterwards does a funky roll away. His style still sick, Dylan's style is forced.

This part always stuck out to me. His flip tricks has this like nervous energy behind them, I dug it. I think it also has a lot to do with Kevin Barnett's style of filming. The guy is a master at his craft no doubt.

Amazing, never leave a legit board co to start a company with you buddy whose trapped in Flow so you can turn him pro. His LE part had some sick stuff, just not the greatest editing, I'm sure if he was still on Toy and put out that footage he'd still have a shoe deal.

He once asked in an interview who the president of the USA was before Obama. He didn't know.

His Suffer the Joy part is one of the best ever imo tho.

Was lucky enough to move to AZ in late 2002 and always see him around and in no way is that style forced. If you ever see any difference in his style it's probably dependent upon how much weed or what type it was he had before that specific trick. Still a good dude who gets a shit rep. He's back out in LBC now after a long stint in AZ. Would be cool to see new stuff from him n Tave.

I think he is mindful of his style, but I agree that it's not forced. When he was a little kid he used to talk all the way through skate videos, giggling at the way someone pushed or landed or whatever. I think he holds himself to the same standard of criticism, but I think it's just a part of his subconscious.

I went and bought halfcabs with orange socks. There's so much gold in that part.

Converse's original team really shit the bed. Ethan Fowler, Pops, Sammy Baca, Trapasso... all gone.

Pretty sure baca's still on. Saw a recent hardlick ad doing doubles with jason jessee both wearing cons.
Remillard's been on since the beginning too


I just want everyone to know that I'm only 32.8% skateboarder, and that's on a good day. The rest is just soy and cum.

  Basically, you cannot even comment on this dudes style, people are saying regular statments.   He got a rep for making fun of other pros, he made fun of andrew brophy for wearing a choker necklace and made fun of Curtain.  Also industry peeps prolly resent the golden boy status he had.  Thrasher didn't run his le part right after he got canned from cons.

I got lunch the other day and his suffer the joy song came on. Almost brought a tear to my eye remembering how good he was. I also went through a terrible tie dye and Hawaiian shirt phase because of that part.

I'm not trying to hate, and I really like Baca.. but how is he still sponsored?

I understand he has a kid and all, but he has not shit in forever.
