LGBTQ+ Love Note: A Conversation With ChandlerBurton | Jeff Grosso’s Loveletters to Skateboarding

[@riv6580]

30 years old, grew up skateboarding and now just starting to come out...but only to certain people. It’s sucks but I’m feeling better after every person I tell. Thanks guys. It was because of these videos that I felt ok to do this.

[@mykdmenez]

4 wheels don't care who you are! We're all rollin' forward together!

[@adamdavenport927]

Brian Anderson didn’t come out till well past 30 and he’s one of the toughest, most hardcore skaters out there

[@KumQwatt42]

I absolutely love these episodes, I think its exactly what we all needed in the world today. RIP Jeff Grosso.

[@konetsuhi]

Be nice to one another! How simple of a message but yet so forgotten. RIP Grosso!

[@nitrojunkie9027]

Love that you guys are keeping Jeff's spirit alive by putting out unreleased stuff that he did, thank you for these.

[@spacewolfRIFF]

This whole LGBTQ series of letters & notes is the realest, most heartfelt expression of love for skateboarding I’ve ever seen. As far as legacies are concerned, the impact of what everyone managed to do here will be everlasting. Thank you. It’s fucking beautiful. Be kind out there everybody. Go Skateboarding. #FARETHEEWELL🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗🙏#RIPGROSSO✌️♥️🌌🐺

[@bottomfeeder.x]

[@logojones96]

@@bottomfeeder.x i hit you up on insta yesterday lol

[@tomgann9383]

Hope you’re doing well, and congrats on being true to yourself. I miss Grosso too. And Chandler, you’re a BEAST! You killed it at Dime this year!

[@suburbanwhitedad7338]

Hey look it’s chandler my old friend and classmate! Good to see you’ve made big moves in the skateboarding world! Rock on!🔥🤙

[@fattzo_films]

I don’t want these to end. Ever.✊🏼🌈❤️🛹

[@eliasvalentin9037]

Loved this! Thank you vans for using your platform! Chandler Burton is such a cool guy :)

[@tao_2015]

I keep saying "Skateboarding is awesome" ❤️

[@nicholasmesa3588]

Thank you for sharing all of these stories. It's great to see such openness in the Skateboarding Community. There will always be those who think they "know what's better" for others, what matters is what's right for you. E PLURIBUS UNUM

[@Quesly1]

Chandler discovering skateboarding through Jay Adams is so heavily ironic

[@zaraewen8946]

As a skater of nearly 20 years, skaters still aren't all that friendly to trans folks, much like Chandler was saying in the video. I hope these videos continue so people can open their eyes a bit more...

[@MegaAppl3]

I miss him.

[@Hometown-Unicorn]

RIP Grosso...... Poet skater, road rash skin collector, madman to the madmen. The world's a lot quieter now.

[@josephpossanza5022]

That Krink fire extinguisher is so rad.

[@BitesTheDusto]

I love chandler. Rip grosso

[@skarceoneafd9609]

Miss you Jeff, still hasn’t sank in yet.. 🙏🏼😔

[@0rionskate]

4:44 damn

[@K-FOREST_Original]

The impression already exudes a professional atmosphere. ^o^

[@jackhoff7712]

Grosso was trying so hard to keep it together in this 😂

[@ihatemickiegee]

can y’all just keep posting outtakes, extended versions of pieces, omissions, etc until u run out - we can’t let go of grosso’s loveletters,

[@einfachso5945]

Yeahhh...respect Bro :)

[@whatmemories3728]

Can we get rough cuts or conversations from other episodes

[@gorryman]

Apparently only woke subjects get further attention , really sad there is so much more to people and life than what consensual adults do with their junk , but there is all this hate , way more into do your thing and shut up and skate but whatever, good on peeps for the courage to come out and come together...

[@SixStair]

it's a great idea we've been pushing for years-- hopefully these will inspire the powers that be to make it happen!

[@quackapatth]

spazz is a dope name

[@leehazlewoodism]

Jeff didn't look well here.

[@thehateugave9699]

R.i.P Jeff grosso

[@themoog924]

comment section should be good.

[@solidrock6524]

Someone please Outlaw the word like. Jeez we've run that into the dirt. rest in peace Jeff we miss you

[@sess845]

Really? That's what you took from this episode?

[@panatela001]

Be who you are, yeah super deep

[@tao_2015]

It's seems Easy

[@mickadams1905]

The fact that this guy discovered Jay Adams through lords of Dogtown and not Dogtown and Z-boys speaks volumes. Noone gives a shit what you're into unless you stand up and say, I'm (insert pretentious label) aren't I special. Get over yourself, stop telling other people how to think and just skate.

[@sess845]

You sound homophobic. Just sayin.

[@alittlecrinkley232]

Hi ,Im so and so, don't skate as much as I used to and I'm hetero.

[@episodebeats2817]

A.I. & robotic skaters will be interviewed in 2030.

[@pierredejj3105]

Lol seriously? You too

[@mitchellharrison9237]

grosso is rolling over in his grave with that intro disclaimer

[@bubbadagger]

This is everything i love about skateboarding. The world misses you Grosso
