Franky’s stunts and envelope-pushing tech all require some serious skin shedding. See how he muscles through it.

[@ClickItChris]

That hippie flip through the fence is INSANE!

[@Ghostyfrost9688]

It’s a damn heel flip too. So sick

[@Jayaycee83]

The attempts make it seem simply impossible. The precision and confidence required for such a move is beggars belief..

[@jonakibu8323]

50-50 hippie pressure heel out

[@zackarychristian9489]

Milton Martinez did it first I think

[@booftoot]

some of the shit he's doing is just mind boggling, his board control is insane

He makes skateboarding look hard and easy at the same time. Thumbs up

[@CertainExposures]

Yessir

[@dihydrone]

he came out once but it was short. it was a diamond halloween event i believe

[@danielcan9876]

Bro this man be skating a door and he still hella good

[@tcsk20]

Adjusting to bigger boards is the way to go, I recently moved up to 8.5 which isn't the biggest but to say I was used to skating 8/8.25 it is fairly big. But I must say once you've adjusted then landing tricks feels so much more secure and comfy. I would recommend trying it out.

[@carlwheezer9860]

@martin gonzalez here, we see an annoying loser in it’s natural habitat. Unable to take anyone else’s opinions into consideration, the slow, stupid beast lumbers through the KZbin comment section. As we see here, it’s feeble mind simply lacks the capacity to reply logically to anyone, defaulting to simple phrases such as “stfu”. This specimen is a prime example of stunted evolution.

24 mins of Franky! Thank you Thrasher ✌🏻

[@mkhud50n]

The way he sticks tricks with those loose trucks is so satisfying.

[@reefchiefer]

Stomps the craziest shit and just surfs away

[@shampou8069]

i remember watching this when it came out last halloween and was instantly hooked on Franky as a skater

[@tylerrtaylorr]

sameee

[@joaopedrolinhares6476]

Me too, damn good part, watched it the day it came out

[@dingus2k]

well now i just want a full part of Franky skating that play ground

[@reefchiefer]

And/or daewon! That playground looks crazy!

[@stonemedinaaa]

his unwillingness to settle is incredible

[@wingedeathnoisewave]

That fakie north/ no-comply half cab(?) on a ledge mid line at 11:33 was mind boggling!

[@mrjh2021]

dude frankie is so good. seriously one of my favorites and one of the best to ever do it

[@SamoYo1]

that frontide flip was absolutely insane, he caught it so well it sounds like he cased

[@47Jamm]

Going frame by frame at 24:33 and watching the concern on the faces of the parents as Franky rolls towards the top of the stairs is hilarious.

[@Thurston86]

Watching the “lock in” at the 3:23 spot along with the “lock in sound”/“grind clicks” is sooooo satisfying to hear!

[@prod.sleepdabeat]

The 5-0 made it even more satisfying to listen to!

[@Thurston86]

Hell Yeah! 🤘👽

[@munted_1644]

so gnarly and creative, Franky is dope

[@supremedemigod]

This is one of those examples where you could say, the level of skateboarding nowadays is insane

[@LuiAppratto]

i demand more footage on the waterpark

It's not Franky, but these guys skated the same place and did some sick stuff: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j5bMkKGtmtqAlac

[@cameronpuccini7373]

I’ve never seen someone skate so sketchy, yet so clean! what a unique style.

[@CTFILMS313]

I had to stop the video at 11:34 cause what type of matrix shit was that buddy glitched at the ledge. Nope. Somebody controlling him.

[@CarlosColuccci]

What?! I didn't even see that

[@turbors]

broooOOOOOOo franky is soooo fucking good man. his style is unmatchable and his trick selection is insane. he lands shit out of nowhere and my jaw is always dropped. holy shit hes so talented!

[@MaseBoogie]

Bruh is so smooth on the big boy board

[@chinesefoodbong]

7:03 this is cool af Some of Franky's attempts are just as good as the make

[@mrwobbles7794]

I was hoping they were gunna drop a raw part for Frank nd I’m glad they did! P.s I hope franky dad is in good health💪

[@sepiarain]

When your novelty skater needs to shred harder, and your shredder needs a wider trick vocab and creativity... Enter Frankie.

[@Rufusdos]

Well put.

[@ColinBrunnemer77]

yup lol

[@JefeDeJefes8484]

Facts.

[@caleblatona174]

bruh every trick he lands he's like "nah I can get a better one". I respect that shit, this dude really cares about his craft

[@beaver3306]

It took me an hour to watch the whole part because I had to rewind every trick Frankie been ripping since he was young at my local skatepark at centennial keep ripping it bro 714 all day

[@robertbarnhart7791]

I still have to come and watch that frontside flip sometimes. Unbelievable. The moment of silence after he catches it is so good.

[@costradelmal]

Franky is like Po, the Dragon Warrior, every try he does something gnarly and effortless

[@calebcooper1426]

One of my favorite newer parts to come out, entertained and mind blown the entire video

[@Dannydarknessx]

This dude is gnarly! That fs flip makes me so happy

[@solidbluebrian]

What a G! So much talent! Love getting to see the raw clips

[@julienpicardos]

I'm still brand new to skateboarding, not even two years skating, and I never had a favorite skateboarder and never thought about it until this video. Love the style, the tricks choice, the smile. I think I will remember his name, he's awesome!

[@devanclements3]

Damn wish I could like this twice

[@Jokerasmaw]

Guys like Franky are the Absurdist comedy of skateboarding... I love this so much. One my favorite skaters for sure

[@rzadigi]

First it was Jamie Foy, and now it’s Frankie. These chubby dudes are killing it!

[@Jeffrey_Tyler]

I find it really interesting that more and more skate videos these days are morphing into a vlog format versus a music video format. Personally I really enjoy it. I enjoy both. And I REALLY enjoy Franky. He's been one of my favorite skaters since the first time I saw him. I've always been more of a fan of "chill" technical leaning skaters. It's been that way since I first saw Rodney Mullen when I was a kid in the late 90s-early2000s. Something about that style just resonates with me.

[@ffb28a10]

One of my favorite skaters, suche a posetive vibe and such a steez at it, keep going Franky!

I don't get how anyone could dislike this. If you ain't a fan of Frankie something is wrong witcha
