    This is my favorite RUclips video of 2021. What a legend. Same with BA. sometimes I feel kinda silly being 36 and so hyped on skating like I’m 15 again, but seeing this and seeing other dudes who still dream about skating all day make me so happy. We really did find the fountain of youth.

      @Frank Bonazza III it’s just sometimes when I’m at the local park by myself and I’m surrounded by a best trick contest it feels a little alienating to be the dude still doing basic tricks. I live in a city where a lot of locals think they’re all too cool for everyone and a lot of people have attitudes so I sometimes get discouraged and feel like “wtf am I doing here” but it’s all good because I can just go skate a street spot and not deal with the 20YO cool guys when it gets to be too much

    I skated with Fred once about 20 years ago. A group of friends and I heard Fred lived in Sewaren. So we went to his grandparent's house and she said he's living in another part of town. We found him there and asked if he wanted to skate with us. Despite having a hurt ankle he went down with us to a tennis court by the water for a few hours. Good times.

      Definitely. There's a couple crazy drop-ins he's done in Indian School Ditch, one gif recently posted in Thrasher's community section. Didn't see it in person, but knowing that spot is just mind-blowing, especially the one on a 1997 Slap cover. It's easy to overlook the little bolts you have to weave through right at the flat, but that's what makes that spot 20 times gnarlier. He acid droped from this top rail by the sidewalk into it from a noseblunt. Dropping from that top rail is just bonkers. You can't see how steep it is on the cover, but you can see the bolts if you look close. I just dropped into the bank itself like 20 years ago and died because of the bolts, and that was one of the gnarliest things I've done and never tried it again because it's just rolling the dice.
