Wet dream: Bryan Herman, the 100% that his Stay Gold part was allegedly not. A Heath Stay Gold style exit - something as surprising and poetic as the mega ramp ender, but a 2018 version. Some kind of iconically executed tre flip or hardflip or nollie inward heel into a Sean Greene-esque hill bomb . . . or maybe a sk7mafia Stephen Lawyer/ Tiago Lopes abomination done with flick and class.
Now that I'm writing this, I realise how privileged I'd be to see another full-length Herman part. Dude's approaching Penny status in terms of elusiveness and quality control. I'm too young to know, but is this how it felt to look forward to new Penny footage in the late 90s/early 2000s?
Alternative: Dustin Dollin, full length part, all the makes he's secretly been hoarding during this three-year long failed suicide. Skating, of course, to Return to Innocence by Enigma.
All humility aside, I feel like Andrew Reynolds still has an ender-worthy part in him. Seems like the general consensus was that This Is Skateboarding was to be his last. But then there was Baker 3, then Stay Gold, to name the stand outs of his post-TIS output. Dude's been breaking precedents for nigh on two decades now. Is there really anything he could do to surprise us?
But yeah, it's prolly wishful thinking. Curtains will probably go to some kid I don't give a fuck about. This topic's just got me hyped on a Bryan Herman Andrew Reynolds retrospective though. Those fuckers never fuckin' stuttered. Flawless.
