I dont know how the fuck he runs outta some of that shit. Would have loved to see some bail attempts at the Santa Cruz fence bash.

yea that park and clip are too gnarly to just show the make

[DCLOVE]

His raw footage always shows how good he really is but he's still just meh for me. Chocolates resident bro.

[Little Debbie]

this is the one i was really waiting for and it did not disappoint. he is amazing, cody really goes for it too. will be rewatching frequently.

[handsclapanin]

wow. really great.
polarizer at WA ST was nuts.
that long feeble over the seat at that parking garage tight tranny to rail was so cool. that spot has been skated for decades and no one has ever done something like that.

[Atiba Applebum]

wonder when he'll make the move to Diamond footwear

[Tracer]

The line at 2:09... does it get any better than that?

[Johnny Rocketflips]

How is he still alive. Just watching this gives me a bad feeling to my stomach.

[CRAILFISH TO REVERT]

his backside airs are so fucking proper.

[poowizard]

completely supernatural. Most of that didn't even look hard for him to do at all. Thats why he'll always be a G.

[alraunen]

I just went to skate 10 minutes after watching this video, thanks Raven for keeping me hyped, really enjoyable raw files.

wish they had a second angle on that feeble, shot from outside/below just for scale. raven is def an athletic bro but his skating more than makes up for it imo

[oyolar]

I love when he does those shifty f/s ollies where he waits until the last second to turn back into the tranny.

Damn, I feel like this shows how gnarly Raven is in a way no other part of his ever has. The thing that initially made me notice this dude was old footage of him just cruising around an indoor park. Some skaters don't fit into the "video part" format for some reason. But this shit is endlessly rewatchable.

[wheelies]

I just gained some massive insight from that on how to roll into trannys facing forward.

[Willie]

I was here when he did this Firing Line and had never heard of him before and was blown away. He was skating a rusty, kinky, 12 foot vert ramp padless like it was nothing. Navarette and everyone else stopped skating to watch. Did this same basic run 3-4 times, only bailing on the fakie 5-0 but even then it was somehow like he was bailing on a 2 foot mini.

Crazy seeing someone so casually confident. Fisheye doesn't do it justice.

All his shit is man, amazing.
I have been trying to skate a bit more transition lately too, and getting routinely broken off.
This shit is next level.

i want to start.   what kind of wheels you use?

[RoaryMcTwang]

For a long time I didn't get the fuss made about him but This one made me understand. His style is raw, and most of that shit was life-threatening.

[doublesteveburger]

This was fucking insane. Wasn't he Creature flow before getting on Chocolate?

hah i was literally coming here to post that.  i can't think of any others at the moment, but are there other (for complete lack of a better term) rap lking transition skaters like raven

[planman]

He was am for Creature like five years ago then jumped ship to Choco. He is absolutely unreal

[Noble Experiment]

Yeah but there was only room for one "bro" guy on the team so they settled with Chris Russel.
Raven is now up there with Chris Senn and Kareem Campbell on the list of dudes with really cool looking semi-mobbed kickflips.

[Yu Dum]

This shit had me floored. Raven is on track to be one of the best/most well-regarded transition skaters of all time.
If you guys haven't seen him skate in person, then you're missing out.

[Owen]

Does anyone know if his name is really Raven?

[Sick Duck]

[expired]

That was mind blowing, i started trying to learn new tricks last year on quarter pipes and bowls and have been slamming consistently. to be that comfortable on transitions looks like the dream

[Sexytoes69]

Yeah fucking proper.
