  • Skater is fuelin' the van and rippin' the rail at the gas station. Skater is going back to back at a spot with your best friend. Skater is never slowing down after already being one of the best in the game. Leo Romero is skater.

    man skateboarding has felt so stale. We really needed this. I don't think Leo really understands how impactful he is to older skaters that grew up in the era he did. We get to watch a core skater who has always crushed, always put in the work, and always delivered bless us again with a full part for the first time in years. What a great part im sad the 12 minutes are over. Thank you for skateboarding Leo, you dont know how many people youve touched.

      Then Why are there only a few in the entire world at this age that do then? Hmmm 🧐 well, probably because when you are hurling your body down enormous flights of stairs and handrails for decades it causes major damage to your body. Apparently everyone thinks they are a doctor on the subject so how about we consult the others who have done this at his age…..wait a second. There’s only decenzo, Reynolds, Romero and a few others….I wonder why 🤔 maybe it’s because pie squared equals these nuts 🥜 i don’t fucking care, all I’m saying is that it hardly ever happens and I’m in awe of his determination and luck/blessings to us for 10 plus years of high content shit

      I don't know. Leo's a hard grape to grow. As you know. He's thin-skinned, temperamental, ripens early. He's not a survivor like Cabernet that can grow anywhere and thrive even when neglected. Leo needs constant care and attention and in fact can only rip in specific little tucked- away corners of the world. And only the most patient and nurturing TM's can do it really, can tap into Leo's most fragile, delicate qualities. Only when someone has taken the time to truly understand his potential can Leo be coaxed into his fullest expression. And when that happens, his flavors are the most haunting and brilliant and subtle and thrilling and ancient on the planet.

    Also, I'm here because my teenage daughters just got inspired to start skateboarding. So I dusted my 15+ year old board off and noticed it's a Leo model! So here I am, blown away by someone who can still skate at such a level - he's 37 while I'm 47, so I truly understand how insane this part is at any age, yet alone 37. Amazing.
