“A few years ago, Daniel started showing up to Pulaski without his board, just to stare into the sun for hours on end. After a few months of this, he announced Stingwater.” — Smalls
After the release of Belly of the Beast, Allan Danze retired from skateboard filmmaking (because he was beginning to GRoE: Getting Ready tO Evolve.)
After the release of Spirit Quest, Colin Read retired from skateboard filmmaking (because, you probably suspected, he was beginning to GRoE.)
And as you may also already know, Stop Fakin’ 3 will be Smalls’ final video.
He is about to GRoE into a new chapter of life. Daniel was merely a brief spiritual guide on this vast journey.
GRoE-th is not for everybody. Daniel will be the first to tell you that people will misconstrue you GRoEing into convenient categories that their brains can easily process. Here is his four-limbed part from Stop Fakin’ 3, for all of those ready to evolve. You can purchase the Stop Fakin’ trilogy here.
Refreshing! Is DK eligible to skate for the two Korea’s in the Olympics. If so and Gonz, Takahiro Morita, and Gou Miyagi aren’t in: hand him the gold, Radio Korea, nuke the Haters!
