COLD CALL: Braden Hoban

Braden is a road warrior of the highest order, crisscrossing the country in the Yeto van with Dakota, CJ and Reyes, steamrolling every rail, hubba and set in sight. Ride along with the crew…

[@STATERECALLMUSIC]

That was extremely good! Cruising around the country and just ripping it up so well. Great musicianship and videography too - tasteful production.

[@matthewwilson8897]

What a lifestyle man. I am continually blown away how Braden makes such gnarly handrail tricks look so effortless. Dude just goes, its insane

[@theacgkid]

That massive kink rail he does in his Vaccine part is just ridiculous

[@matthewwilson8897]

@@theacgkid 💯

[@triplflip900]

@@theacgkid Thank you for mentioning that so I had to go back and watch it. Holy shit that is one of the craziest rails I've ever seen, especially the angle he came at it. And that trick kind of flies under the radar somehow in the middle of his part. I def didn't remember it.

[@WorkThrowaway]

He played beautifully

[@CedarSpringWolf]

I love Chris Gregson's filming and editing style. Felt very natural and organic, like the use of Braden's music as a soundtrack. And there's none of that zoom in zoom out crap so I feel like I'm there watching the skating. Braden rips.

[@TheSimpelsimon]

Hate this zoom in zoom out shit too! Adds nothin to the skateboarding , just makes me motion sick

[@CedarSpringWolf]

@@TheSimpelsimon Same. Makes my head spin. There's enough action going on already with the skating.

[@TheBlakus420]

​@@CedarSpringWolfI feel the same way about those under shots. You see it with stairs, hand rails and hubbas the most

[@davidtrindade1858]

On top of being an awesome skater he’s also a great musician. Hats off.

[@garethjones6952]

Agreed absolutely insanely talented

[@kidisgone0x]

i could never get tired of watching this guy crush rails like it's nothin

[@followsuittrading]

This is a subtle masterpiece. This is folklore, skateboard culture.

[@Jg-ki4hw]

Besides the skating i really enjoyed the guitar and singing part. Great edit!

[@shicknepard420]

such a good cold call! since this dude 1st came on the scene hes been dominating not only the streets but comp skating as well! hes almost won it all a couple times just a matter of time!

[@johnevans248]

what an awesome edit… can’t beat those east coast fall colors either 😍

[@marcdoeseverything]

Why did I cry at the end

[@MisterAVF]

I love that they used Brandon's music in this. Such a vibe 🔥🔥 Need Hoban/Leo Romeo collaboration cd put out by Emerica/Toy Machine please 🙏

[@bonbonjames16]

Love how this was put together, not only great skateboarding, but gives you a little taste of the full experience, and lifestyle of being on the road! Excellent!

[@matthewjames206]

Braden is multi-talented. Good dude, and a good crew. This was awesome 🍻

[@McK9999]

How nice of those lads to go around improving and beautifying rails 💚

[@ben_3256]

whats crazy is that braden almost won the SLS supercrown in 2022. Literally came down to the last trick. Dude is sooo sick.

[@absolutedeath_666]

He got robbed

[@allenrivaschasco9935]

Dude! This video its so lovely! I feel like so identified with braden because he only wants to have fun and go skate with homies, the last skater that I felt like this was henry gartland (rip) but braden is really special, thank thrasher for made this video ❤️🙏🏻

[@nicolasbaker9601]

These guys have THE LIFE! Skating around the east coast in Autumn is bucket list shit

[@psydwayze]

Chillest hard hitters

[@Chrisonander]

Beautifully shot and edited

[@JoshUseldinger]

Best thing I’ve ever seen Thrasher put out

[@Santiago_MX]

I would watch 50 episodes of these guys crossing the country fixing and skating spots.

[@neiltrice2546]

It’s really cool and refreshing to see a younger dude like Braden who seems so down to earth and more into like guitar and bands like the doors, The Rolling Stones, etc compared to most of the people his age who are just obsessed with like tik tok, and following trends, and that garbage New Age music, and stupid bullshit

[@russellmadahbee8072]

That is an excellent song to go with the railslide! Thank you for sharing!

[@noah122804]

That's so rad Braden got to use his own music during his skate footage. I bet he was stoked on that.

[@LukeCobb666]

its by ramblin jack elliot

[@infinidominion]

It was also Toy Machine af

[@theacgkid]

"CJ... Get in the back" 😂

[@wombatonsteroids]

Awesome stuff! Carving a legacy on the road, dude's doing great. Whole gang throwing down some good tricks.

[@robertgilfillan3221]

he sounded really good, love these vids

[@tilius.xyz_]

This kinda video makes skateboarding into art.

[@artemface]

Only thing wrong is I wish it was longer it was so good, thank you Thrasher 🙏

[@terelmiles5515]

Sooo good. Hoban and Dakota are both beasts!

[@kennynewell85]

This fellas are living a dream. Awesome vibes and killer skating!

[@derekgatzxx]

this crew came through OKC with Jaws to meetup with Clint Walker at our local OKC skateshop for a Demo, it was so cool to see. Love seeing them together still out there!

[@RocketRacoon717]

Wow that was beautiful, I knew Braden was talented on the board for sure but to pull out the soul like that on the trip 💀 😢 all those guys rip

[@bashdjs]

Wow! That got the feels going. Hoban is crazy talented

[@UpNthatBasshole]

3:27- might be one of the best 360 flips I have ever seen

[@RalexNSW]

That vid was sick. I really enjoyed that. Cool insight into the guys lives at the moment.

[@johnfritz4096]

That was tight. There’s nothing like a roadtrip with your crew. Looks like everyone had a superultramega fun time together and who could ask for more? Your crew, a can, endless roads and spots ahead. Choice!!!

[@subwoofa9313]

Really enjoyed this one Thrasher! Much love

[@Oddweekband]

[@wotceseriescollector]

awesome video! Braden is very talented

[@FatWhalen]

And the song he did at the end was awesome

[@mikemaac]

Amazing video, great editing and music. Very uplifting!

[@anurkin7]

Toy Machine Crew - 150 straight days in the van playing folk music and grinding handrails in the various church parking lots throughout North Carolina and Georgia. That's why they're the best.

[@benlilley8393]

Cant wait to see a full cj part

[@Sunnyskateshop]

Beautiful boys! Love the singing at the end there Braden. - Colt Bowden

[@StayBolts]

That was really good, Chris nailed it.

[@Candy_jacobs]

This was beautiful, what an amazing skateboard and rad human🙌

[@JohnHill]

[@solidbluebrian]

Hoban and Servold together is a killer combo, both so gnarly!

[@bewatermyfriend7355]

I love this kind of edit.

[@nicktorres4044]

wtf this video was so beautiful. was not expecting this from the cold call vid

[@BetterSkateThanNever]

& still so young (23) can't wait to see all his ripping yet to come

[@sammaz7993]

Damn Hobans talent knows no bounds.. musically gifted indeed to go on top of his effortless skate steez.. legend.

[@dajovajr]

thank you for your service mr H

[@andersonlittle3201]

These guys literally eat rails for breakfast lunch and dinner So gnarly

[@Joeycrisanto]

Beautiful song Braden

[@sebastiani.6822]

Best lifestyle! Congratulations! Keep up the good spirit!

[@grampsskateboarding4814]

Braden should from now on be known as railroad billy

[@ryanrowe1975]

One of the best musician to skating out of the surface and jumping over the rail

[@45BRush]

Leo Romero's kid is killing it out here

[@Treppenhochgeher]

Mezmerizing sound! Love it! 🥰

[@buehl444]

[@_ericjude_]

This was sick. Dude is so impressive.

[@johnskender4386]

[@starcloudatlas]

What life is all about. Art music skating & traveling💚

[@TheOrphanLaboy]

starting off "CJ get in the back" I knew this was gonna be gold

[@jakethesk8roberts763]

What a dope video Braden is so knarly And apparently multi talented

[@huyxhoang]

Nothing like a good ‘ol van trip 🍔🎸🛹

[@FL85106]

I’ve never seen anyone so equally talented in both music and skateboarding. I’d even say he’s the only one out there.

[@dbc.ash.]

WoW! FCK Yeah!... That's was the Sickest, BEST SHT I've seen in Skateboarding.. Braden for sure one of my Favs. Dakota and Everyone else too. Just ALL KILL it! .. DBC..Daily Blessings Coming! .. Thank You ALL for Skateboarding and Everything Everyday!!

This kinda hit home

[@amado7760]

Awesome !!!

[@kevinwoalter]

Whoa, this was a piece of art. Especially the end with the song Braden played. Dope atmosphere. What camera did you use Chris?

[@holyholyholyholyholyholy]

also curious on the camera!

[@the.real.m_sf_t5308]

Yoooo Braden needs to drop that song ASAP that's a banger right there😢 omw

[@TheTjark57]
