My top 10 closest calls in almost 10 years of longboarding.
*REGARDING THE LAST CLIP*
What Happened: While on a production shoot we had one of the crew members drive down before us and block off the road for one minute at a time while we skated down the mountain. We were rushing to beat the sunset and get as much footage as possible while the lighting was good so our communication about where exactly the car was supposed to be blocking off the road was subpar. As you see in the video, the result is us having to swerve off to the side of the road to avoid hitting the car that was parked roughly 200 feet closer than it should’ve been. We never go into the opposite lane on a blind turn unless we have walkie talkies and/or a spotter letting us know the road is clear
How It Could’ve Been Prevented: Taking the time to drive down the road one more time and show the crew member exactly where to park versus telling them from the top where to park would have entirely prevented this situation. Bad things can happen when people start rushing so when safety is the top priority, it is incredibly important to make sure everyone is on the same exact page. Blessed that everyone in the situation was all good and can move on and learn from it.

Thank you guys for watching! I have weekly videos coming for the next few months so stay tuned for more 🙂
My god, this man is from rubber!
I don't get the "no no no" at the end. It's a car on a road?! Or was the road supposed to be closed or anything?
Your skills are amazing by the way where did you go for skating in the last one. The place is so beautiful.
2:36 he's like he vanished and came back like a miracle whahahaha
3:17 nonono no what?
Live another day for longboard
Ok now I must believe long boarders can respawn them!!
Oh man, I wonder how can you get up every time.
Hatts off
suppose to be top 11 but he can't post the last one.
The amount of times this guy has almost fell off a cliff 😆😆😆 mad respect 🙏🙏
Call these guys the tempters. Living on the edge like that
Well if something happened and you died, at least you'll die doing something you love
How fast are you going in these clips?
That one on your race against a storm video where I thought you would get hit by that car/suv on a blind curve. I think that was the closest.
Holy shit dude this was gnarly. IDK how you got back on the board after almost going over the cliff!
u need protective gear u madman
I'm just glad that these are "Close calls where I narrowly avoided a nasty bail/death" rather than: "Nasty bails that nearly killed me", because that type of close call is unsettling
wow so crazy man
Verdad
Soy el único que habla español
You're fun to drive, but I hope I never meet you on the road
Glad you are ok, that thing is scary
