Gettin’ Famous
Luis Tolentino: 50-50
I’ve been skating with a lot of the Famous guys lately via Mr. Aaron Brown. Now within skateboarding this company has not gotten much recognition as of yet, however, I think once their video drops heads will start to turn and respect will be given. Every one of them are chill as fuck and have killed everything I’ve seen in their path. Today was a very lazy Monday and it was hard for most to get motivation, probably due to just finishing a month long tour followed by a celebration Vegas trip; which I had the pleasure of being invited to, thanks guys. Anyways, after being kicked out of spot after spot we found ourselves at this curved ledge in LA. While most of us were focusing on the ledge, Luis happened to notice this flat bar around the elevator. Nobody else really gave it a second glance because, well personally speaking I don’t skate bars or ledges that are higher than my balls. He jumped on it no problem and even had the audacity to say he really didn’t wanna shoot it because it was just “watevs.” It was confusing to me how easy it was for him and after he made the comment that he felt completely off today. My only response was that I’ll take an off day like that any day. Luis has been entering a few contests here and there and I think many are starting to recognize the talent. The kid rips and no doubt has a bright future, yeah Lou!!
