I’ve been on a couple of Levi’s skateboarding trips with Josh now and I still am not sure how to really describe him except that he’s just a “good guy.” I know… that doesn’t really help you much – but he’s super easy to get along with, level headed and doesn’t fake the funk. And why wouldn’t he be cool? From Eugene, Oregon, he’s done it all himself – moved to California, survived two of his former sponsors going out of business (éS & Think) and has continued to progress by joining the HUF squad and becoming pro for Organika last year. After a quick text, he sent over this mellow tracklist written on his (blank?) board, perfect for van tour downtime or staring out the window of any train, plane or automobile.

i thought it was the opposite. a change from all the retarded trap that 10 yolds like. at last some good music from very respected artists and not made up gimmics or mainstream bullshit.

if you really expect the white 20-30 something men from the mid-west who ride toys for $30,000 a year that are tapped by jenkem to do this mixes to be into “out there” shit and hip hop exclusively… you are a silly goose
September 8, 2015 9:04 am
and its not even hip hop. that would have been great. most times its some super gay fucking trap music that only makes skating look really stupid.
