The thing that always bothered me about “Day In The Life” sections is that they always seemed so planned and scripted. Like the camera guy comes in and “wakes the skater up”, they visit a couple cool spots, “accidentally” bump into all their homies, crack a beer and fade to black. So naturally (stupidly) for this segment, we did the total opposite and came in with absolutely no preparation or really any idea of what we should be shooting. I figured we’d spend a couple of hours and hang out – whatever Shawn is doing that day, we would do it with him, whether that’s grabbing a coffee, listening to music or holding his groceries. Here’s just a small glimpse of time we spent in the streets of Chinatown.

I know this video / these comments are old as fuck but damn, I just gotta say for the record how whack some of ya’ll are. Calling this dude scum and a piece of shit because he bums a cigarette (wtf is even wrong with that, everyone who smokes has bummed cigs) and admits to stealing from 7/11? Ya’ll must be some real virtuous motherfuckers.
Dudes just trying to do his thing and have some fun, maybe he playin it up and acting a little corny for the camera, but fr I’m not gonna judge some dude for 5 random minutes of his life.
