As someone whose skating goes to shit after just 2 beers I respect this guy's ability to rip drunk!

Also, I thought that bbq fish looked pretty good

He was getting flowed Nike for a while, but the TM couldn't figure out where he lived and couldn't send him boxes anymore.

Arrow Wheels did a trip a few weeks ago, invited him, never heard anything back, then he supposedly rocked up at the start of the trip unannounced. He was skating demos with them so he still skates somewhat.

He got fucked over big time by the tax department. He turned pro as a teenager (he was like what, 15 in the Blind video?) and had someone else looking after his cash (his mom passed away), and they fucked him over big time. I feel sorry for him.

What kind of person fucks over an orphan that puts their trust in them? Shady shit.

Watched a few of his parts above and Bumcombe has/had genuine talent.

Earlier this year, someone posted a clip of him doing a massive kickflip into this fucked up bank in SE asia. Searched for the thread but it looks like its gone.

think this is all from the arrow wheels china tour.... yeah as someone else pointed out his IG hasn't been updated for a year almost

seems like he was another foreign pro who was big in the US at one point then slowly shifted from legit sponsors into smaller ones (globe pro to nike au flow, blind pro to LE) and was still pro, going on tours according to his insta but seems like he hasn't updated it for about a year

Thats the bank, but the clip I saw was him rolling up to it ( from where those dudes are standing, on Jake's right) and kickfliping over the ledge into the bank.

When he came through on What If? tour he was 15 and they rented a place for an afterparty. He was wasted when he got there and we walked in on him doing coke in the bathroom a few times. I'm sure Cliff has some stories on him going way too hard way too young.

I've always been a huge fan. Dude has amazing style, can skate anything, looks like he's having fun and a unique but good trick selection. He seems like he's got the shit end of the stick in life a few times, with sponsors and losing a lot of friends and family, hopefully he's doing well wherever he's at. Dude is seriously underrated.
