Transition skating has gotten so gnarly lately that it’s hard for a simpleton like me to even comprehend. See exhibit A: the San Diego native Tom Remillard. He rips the steep walls of Washington Street like a mini-ramp and pulls complete loops in full pipes, usually with a cast on his arm no less!
We got the Expedition and CONS rider to curate the 23rd installment of our Jenkem mix series. I kind of figured it’d be filled with hesher guitar riffs, but other than a single Sabbath song the playlist is surprisingly mostly made up of classic country, blues, rock and one random fuccboi party track.
(PS: We know, the written tracklist is super haggard, but that’s what we get for asking him while he was on tour – scraps of paper and sticky notes)
Stream it below or download it here.
More Mixes? Check out Aaron Herrington,Riley Hawk, Anthony Pappalardo, Jim Greco, John Cardiel, Alien Workshop, Brian Anderson, Baker, Bronze, Brad Cromer, Alex Olson, Sage Elsesser, THPS, Sean Pablo or Jesse Alba.

I remember years ago in Thrasher (or was it another mag? someone here will correct me), Remillard did an interview where he said he listened to a lot of reggae. Shouted out Barrington Levy, Steel Pulse and I don’t remember who else. Looks like his list has come along way since then, haha. Always stoked on anything Remillard.

Dear Jenkem,
Please do a new “skater celebrity look alikes” and include that Tom Remillard looks like Shia Labeouf. http://s1.ibtimes.com/sites/www.ibtimes.com/files/styles/v2_article_large/public/2011/06/28/120867-shia-labeouf.jpg?itok=2yDT6ALf
Sincerly,
Internet Jenkem Readers

To the point. This one was sick. Cheers Tom.
