Zero's "Painkiller" Rough Cut Part 5: Kaanan Dern

Every clip of Kanaan's is death defying, whether it's taking on mountain-sized rails or roof riding into a swamp. Pop some Advil after this one…

(3-4) stairs depending on the specs of the stairs/rail. But what amazes me about this generation of skaters is how they absolutely just fly before all their tricks, some of these tricks are insane at those speeds. Wow.
