Full disclosure, if you lack the patience for a clip longer than sixty seconds, or the penchant for vibey longboarding: move right along. This clip ain’t for you.

Kid’s got a good head on his shoulders, a van full of boards shaped by everyone from Thomas Bexton to Tom Neilsen, and an approach on and off land that would place him firmly on the throwback end of the style spectrum.
