Which type of skateboard is best for a beginner to learn on - a longboard or a traditional skateboard? Both types of skateboards have their own unique characteristics and benefits, and the decision of which one to use can be a difficult one.

Just dropped this video on my YouTube channel from some epic runs at the 2019 KnK Longboard camp featuring my good buddies Antoine Carlotti, Mirko Paoloni, and Mariano Conti. Enjoy!

This video is all about dialing in the best longboard bushings for your set-up. Longboard dancing is all about flow, and bushings have a huge influence on your overall style. During this video I spent nearly 8 hours testing different shapes, durometers, and formulas of RipTide bushings in my Paris Truck Co 180mm 50º V3s. I learned a lot about what works for me and what might work for you as well.

Just released a limited run of “Longboarding is a vibe” hoodies with my good friends at New Flag Design and we’re already over half sold out! This run is limited to 50 pre-orders and after that - they’re gone for good.

Whether it's getting to work, around campus or just up the street, having an electric bike or skateboard is a fun transportation method. Each one comes with pros and cons, so choosing the best option for you requires research.

I’m excited to announce my latest longboard video project - Retrograde. Filmed and edited by Zach Anaya, Retrograde is a mini-documentary showcasing my unique talent and perspective on perseverance.

I recently met up with Isaac Moreno of the Jelly Filled podcast. We spoke about my journey of becoming a professional longboarder including my experience as Vin Diesel’s stunt double, my work as brand manager for Moonshine MFG, and the mindset that helped me persevere through the highs and lows of my career.

Since the recent release of the Aera RF-1 forged longboard truck, I’ve received many questions as to what they’re all about and why someone might want these over the more downhill-focused Aera K5 precision truck or vice-versa. Read on to learn the differences between these 2 trucks, and which one will fit your style best.

2018 was my third year attending the Red Bull “No Paws Down” World Championships. If there was one longboarding event that I really cared about doing well in, it was this one. Couldn’t have been more stoked on my 2nd place finish!

I was recently interviewed by Red Bull Slovenia regarding the annual “No Paws Down” World Championships that they hold every year in Osilnica, Slovenia during the KnK Longboard Camp.

Super stoked to be coming back to Europe for the fourth summer in a row! This year I’m focusing a bit less on competition and more on the overall stoke I get from longboarding.

Among many other resolutions I have for this year, giving back and supporting others is at the top of my list. To start, I’ve decided to give away over 100 sets of my own longboard wheels for FREE.

Inboard Technology just released a new video entitled “My City, My Flow” about my passion for longboarding and my never-ending pursuit for speed an exploration. Filmed in Portland, Oregon by RedTide Pictures.

I was recently interviewed by Inboard Technology as part of their, “My City My Flow” series. Was a blast ripping around town on the Inboard M1 electric longboard. Video out now!

Moonshine MFG just released this video of Lamin Cassama and myself big chillin’ in Mallorca, Spain. Must watch!

Just landed in Berlin to kick off my 3rd longboard Eurotour in a row!

The KnK Longboard Camp in Osilnica, Slovenia is by far one of my favorite downhill skateboarding events in the world. Check out this video and interview from my experience in 2017.

A few weeks ago I traveled to North Carolina with my Moonshine MFG teammate, Jarrid Lopez. While there we skated around some of the gnarliest hills on the east coast and filmed this dope video with Will Royce!

Back in December 2017 I took a month-long road trip with Lamin Cassama. During this time we traveled all over the west coast. Our first stop was the California Redwoods where I filmed this video using the Ikan DS2-A gimbal for my Sony a7r2 and it worked very well.

Over the past three years I've grown a lot. I'm older, wiser, more experienced, and above all, my priorities are in a different place. That being said, I truly believe Powell Peralta aligns more cohesively with my goals and ambitions as well as offering the best urethane on the market. 

I may not have won the IDF King's Gate World Cup like Moonshine MFG team mate Quirin Ilmer, but I do feel quite accomplished. This is the best finish I've had in an event this big. I really tried my best and learned a lot. I've been training almost everyday the past year and it's really starting to pay off.
