Conceptually speaking, this is the best trick of 2012.
If you need some incentive to layer up and go skating despite plummeting temperatures, Taji Ameen just put together a sick fall clip for Acapulco Gold. Features Leo Gutman (forever one of the best low-key skaters in New York), Billy Rohan, and a grip of other people, including the kid above who, uh, dropped in off a basketball hoop. Every year, people complain about how the NBA All-Star Weekend’s basketball game progressively gets worse (everything has more or less already been done.) How about getting this dude involved? Skateboarding’s mad trendy right now. It’s a win-win. Paul George is even skating in Foamposites, what more do you want.
Be sure to also check out Taji’s weekly photo column over at Vice.
Damn, that clip kills. Leo rules!
Leo the Lip! Shit was tight.
I used this song for my part in the first little homemade skate video I ever made, back in 94; I was of course dressed like Pepe. Plain white T’s and cut blue jeans w/ crooked backwards fitted. Clothing choices and the music supervision was completely devoid of irony back then. This clip of course has far better skating ;)
