Everyone here knows that what makes skateboarding so wonderful is the fact that there are so many ways and places to do it, that you can do it basically anywhere (except where there is rain or snow haha.) Whether it’s hucking down huge sets, skating a vert ramp or just skating flatground in your garage, you are guaranteed to have fun.
Anyhow, I was on my daily visit to Hellaclips.com and I stumbled upon this clip of Travis Erickson killing SF. I knew Travis was really good and I had been following him since I saw his rip clip at the Skateboard Mag’s website, but this clip is just on some other level.
I am a huge fan of; fast skating, that is usually in downtown areas (SF especially) and skating in between cars is a huge plus, and more importantly:lines, and I’m not talking about the tre flip to ledge trick line, I mean super long lines. Lines are a huge deal for me, I mean the whole deal of skateboarding (atleast to me, and I assume a few others as well,) Is too actually flow around. It’s not that fun to just land a trick on the ledge,then you stop, grab your board and try another one. Anyways, I’m trying not to steer away from the topic here, what got me really stoked about this clip is the actual use of long ass lines with speed, and let’s not forget that some of this stuff was hard as fuck I mean, Nollie Heel over the rail in a long line? Insane! And the fact that it’s actually in the middle of the city, and I’ve heard that in some of those spots you don’t get more than 2 or 3 tries. Anyways, I wanted to show you guys this clip because it got me so pumped to skate, I’ve watched it like 4 times today.
Enjoy!
