Word up brother man! It's been about 10 years now since I last skated and when he busted that darkslide shit def got a little emotional. Fuck man I grew up watching Chris rip it up at Richmond skate park in my adolescence and seeing this shit now makes me feel so blessed to be born when and where I was. Haslam's a tru master; he's eliminated all his competition and now skates in a world occupied by one.

[@Lacotemale]

Same but I don't know why. I've been away from skateboarding only a few years.

[@GodfreyMasters]

Me too

[@willburr1786]

I keep a deck in my car, but rarely skate cause I’ve been making Large BMX bikes with front suspension so I was ripping those instead. Problems began... the day before Holloween I bombed a hill, hit a sewer grate, smashed my face, out a tooth into my Lip and got some dissolvable stitches. No Big Deal. Then, Nov 10th, I hit a metal rope that has some give to it, ones they use to keep cars from parking in big concrete lots, I hit one of those mobbing on a bike with no brakes trying to launch this thing, lost speed on some little pebbles and got stuffed by this Metal Thing. Boom. Knocked out, had a homie with me, kinda remember before it happened... basically I woke up 4 DAYS LATER! I was in an ICU and had two brain surgeries back to back, so my head wouldn’t stop my brain from the massive swelling it was undertaking after I smashed that Chain. Thank God it was here in Portland, where they have neurosurgeons that are the finest in the Northwest. I Donely am I not a vegetable or paralyzed, although it took me a minute to start walking again, eight days in the hospital, one month at home and now it’s Christmas and I am completely OK so how. 15 staples in the head, A bunch of non-pain killing medicine, and one hell of a brush of luck, and I’m able to describe this incident. Either way, haslam Is sick and I wouldn’t suggest this to him but most everyone else in the world… Wear a Helmet. I’m 36 and I’ve been hearing it since I was 12 years old never even listened to that statement Without turning it out. This is no joke, you can ruin your ability to skate or walk or talk if something bad happens to your head. So if you think “you might wreck , but you’re gonna stop it” ... just think what you could loose. I’m serious, wear a helmet.

This guy is one of a kind. The first trick, the 540 rickflip, whatever nollie pressure craziness happened at 1:20, the nosebonk front foot impossible at 2:03, all of this is signature to his style. That double FS flip over the Besos bar was pretty amazing. It's hard to make an NBD on a spot that famous.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

0:59 he front foot underflips it so fast you can't tell. It looks like a back heel out

[@maxkeif4420]

Correct me if I'm wrong but he had a regular fs flip at the same spot in one of his older vids, I think round 3. Pretty dope to get a nbd at a famous spot and one up yourself at the same time.

[@zenzen4982]

@2:03 , that is not a nosebonk front foot impossible. A front foot impossible would rotate the opposite direction. It is a nollie fs shove it, late hospital flip.
