im 38 and stoked to see vert getting a rebirth. its fucking gnarly and deserves respect. I didn't care for vert until I went to Woodward in 98 and Sergie Ventura was blasting airs 8 ft above the coping while I stood on the deck and then I understood. ill never forget seeing him fly above my head, its seared into my being

I was that way when the first time I ever saw a pro ride vert - Omar Hassan was doing madonna's where his foot that he takes off his board was over head high, followed up by 540's, etc. and I could barely drop in and do a rock-n-roll, lol

street is like 99% of skating now and there’s always going to be people who want to do something different so I think there will be a massive resurgence of vert skating, but it’s probably still a few years away at least. I mean at least half the skating here was from men over 40.

Jesus christ, what an incredible event. So much sickness being thrown down by everyone there. My jaw literally dropped at Tony's madonna crook slide (or whatever the hell it was); I've got so much respect for the man knowing that he can still inspire and surprise us. I thought that was the best trick of the contest until tate carew's insane blind hardflip thing (I don't even know how to begin naming it). Seriously stoked on this. literally everyone was incredible.
