Cory Kennedy shows up to the North Hollywood Park for a little surprise.

[@evansimpson6652]

I remember watching this exact video right before my high school graduation ceremony, a friend of mine and I randomly watched it because he was showing me his new iPhone features. It was crailtaps most recent video at the time I guess. Then we went out and got highschool diplomas. Kind of a weird random memory but I’m glad this was suggested to me on KZbin today lmao

[@jamponyexpress7956]

I'm guessing that puts you at about 28?

[@graxjpg]

I remember this being one of the first KZbin videos I ever saw. I was 13! A short while later, pretty sweet came out and it was the first full length I ever saw too.

[@AlexBerish]

same thing here, right now. damn.

[@JonasPolsky]

"Hey. Do you guys want -- a new board?" "Nah."

[@shoebottom]

45

[@randomthings45]

would suck to be the kid who gets there after all the boards where given away

[@oslo3790]

that would probably be me

[@Garf2O]

+Zachary Wolffis i'd be the kid who shows up and leaves before they get there or show up after they left.

[@ScagAteHer]

+Zachary Wolffis Funny you should say that because i went to that park for the first time with a few friends that day a while back and as we were walking up one of my friends noticed koston standing there and we all freaked out and were like holy shit what are the odds of this. Then later we noticed that the entire team was there (or most of them at least) and then we saw everyone riding the same board and my friend was like "i think we missed the free decks." We got there at about noon so they did this pretty early. We were bummed but happy we saw the team, but of course we didnt skate. Also sorry about my extremely inconsistent grammar.

[@iimdirtydan]

Give Cory Kennedy a colgate sponsorship

[@ChvfRich]

Nah, That's for Mikey Taylor.

[@Osiris3657]

Ha, seriously. Dude has a perfect set of white teeth

[@maxschumm6727]

This is honestly the best way to surprise someone for turning pro.

[@AlexDotchev]

"i think i turned pro but im not sure" hahaha

[@wagwarnn7808]

hey sasho

[@switchback3638]

Cory's entire career in a nutshell

[@JanoyCresva]

I think i killed P-Stone but i'm not sure.

[@jackmarinproduction]

Janoy Cresva damn bruh 🖕🏻

[@defrences]

Janoy Cresva shut up

[@joebenike8518]

God I wish I wasn't old as dirt so I could still have that dream of going pro someday.

[@pressureflipin1992]

how old are you? Im going into my 30's here soon and i haven't given up yet. we are in an age where pros are going well beyond their 30's and staying pro, its all about being consistent. just rip as hard you can. There are plenty of companies that will hook up older dudes, and if not, well start your own brand. Once again we are in time where that is very obtainable. i think that is the only way to go

[@justintaylor4239]

chuck Core Perfect way to put it

[@twiggyskripten1473]

just skate dude!

[@PaperOverPusy]

do it because u love it, not to turn pro dumb fuck

[@brucewayne5504]

I’m 33 and I still use my board weekly.

[@TheChadNshelby]

I love how mellow he is...just a humble kinda dude takin it all in stride....definitely my favorite next to MJ on girl...!

[@TheChadNshelby]

+Chris Hansen too soon man too soon! Michael was a saint. A boy touching drug addled saint...shoulda been a skater...no one has time to touch boys when filming for 5 years. And neverland ranch woulda been a KILLER skatepark!

[@preciousbash3749]

This was so adorbs but Elijah is my favorite skater!!! I wish Kyle Walker was on the team!! I love him & Elijah!!! SOOOO MUCH!!!

[@larsthaman]

this is one of my favorite things on the internet

[@rabvek]

wear... a hat... when you're going out in the sun. there you have it folks.

[@DopeWolfOskari]

haha " I think I turned pro but i'm not sure.." xD

I remember when I first turned pro way back in fucking never.

[@wiremarker]

Further proof of a team that has some of the most innovative, inspirational and entertaining antics. Instantly favorited. Thanks for making my day Crailtap!

[@Theruserofusernames]

If I was him I would just think its weird everyone's riding the same board not that it's my pro model

[@ixw820]

well the board does have his name on it

[@twiggyskripten1473]

IanW820 very small though and I'm sure there are girl boards that look just like that with other names on it. he's there to skate, not analyze everybodies board. he wasn't even sweating when he noticed, it didn't take that long.

[@PaddixSkateKrew]

Cory Kennedy Has always been my favorite skater and i was so glad that he turned pro that my whole team bought his board

[@skatefrog95]

Imagine finding out you just went pro and everybody who has your board got it for free

[@esp0624]

Very creative, kudos to the guys that thought of this. Cory deserves it.

[@peymonarmand5155]

"i think i turned pro but im not sure"

[@rastask8ter1]

Those kids lucky as hell. Congrats Cory!!

[@BaronMagick]

Hope he comes back sober, and focused on skating. He still got at least 10 years

[@BaronMagick]

@@jjjjjjjjj3000 Nah, he out like in a year or so. But I meant he still has 10 years of quaility skating

[@StuHanley]
