i love how gilbert picks spots. half the time its something so big you would pass by it and just joke about someone getting on top of it then gilbert does it switch
I drove thru Richmond Virginia spring break 98 and skated and spot checked around downtown and was blown away by how insanely good/abundant the spots were and everything was nearly untouched. I absolutely remember knowing that some day that town was gonna produce some serious talent. Behold thangs got done.
The other day I saw some banks at the intersection of carnation and route 60. . . Behind the building s right there. Looks a lil grimy, but what isn't in the richmond area. I can't skate anymore but still have the habit of looking for skate spots 20 years later.
I've randomly come across Crockett filming multiple tricks from this era: I was riding my bike past the stair spot under the Williamsburg Bridge when he was trying that backlip shove and then like one year later I watched him try (and land) a nollie inward heel on a bump to bar from the window of my hostel in Vienna. I think that was in the Vans video? Didn't realize it was him either of those times. Life is wild!
It’s actually really weird to see Gilbert still looking almost exactly the same skating a couple of the spots, as when I saw all the way back when I was 12 and this car kept passing back and forth watching my skate my flat bar in front of my house and they stopped one day and handed me a vhs tape of the chronic and said it was important to learn my skate history so that I could one day pass it on and now seeing Richmond in this HD vid with a well respected pro that I actually skated with after I came back from the acl surgery I needed bc I was a dumb kid who didn’t understand the unwritten rules of skateboarding and so while I was skating with Maury one day at PG skatepark I asked him if he would ever give me a chance to be on Dominion or dominion west and he said if I beat him in a game of skate we would see and so I beat him and then he said no now we’re gonna do a game with using any obstacle in the park and I frontside flipped the bank and I think he either said he didn’t see it or something like that and I said that’s alright I’ll do it again and I tore my acl and I was like oh I’m fine and Maury said nope I seen this before you tore your acl and the look on his face was that I was done. 8 months later though I was much better at skating then I was before and I my big Ryan said we were gonna go to downtown Richmond and skate w/ some dominion dudes and we just went around Richmond spot to spot and shortly after that I broke my spine and crushed disks and came back again but with an opiate habit that took me out for 12 years but it’s actually amazing to see how good Gilbert is now and repping all my hometown spots is awesome. Also kickflipping that concrete barrier is wild bc I’ve seen that in person and the asphalt is really not that good especially where you land, that’s pop that at my very best when I was 22 and I could Ollie 6 interlocked boards standing up there’s almost no chance that most people could kick flip that high and ollieing 2 trash cans in a row at the fountain wow dude that’s insane, even homeboy chillen on the fountain was trippin on it
Crockett is incredibly good at skateboarding, but I can't help but think he's extremely uncomfortable when he skates. Like he was trying too hard every time.
meh, not been a fan of youre boards. you have some good riders. but you're boards still needs some work. they chip to easily and i broke one of youre boards within 2 weeks of raw skating. maybe if youre boards were stronger, they would be decent, but as what ive skated. they still need some work. thats being respectful and telling you how it is from a skater to another.

Gilbert so good he made my mama say wowah
he's gotta do the kickflip up the double set now
now we need more chip-shoe clips to go with the throwback vibe
Throwback to a banger
Pantalones overlord 🙌
The man wasn’t wrong, Gilberto is best boarder in the world.
Gilbert Crockett FTW🤘

So fucking weird I’ve been thinking about this part for the past week ever since I saw a Salt Life sticker on a minivan
Brutal!

Gilbert’s best footage and best part is still ride the sky lol. Not sure how that’s possible but it’s true
vertical leap is way, way, way above average; freak athlete
Kickflip a jersey barrier from flat going backside. Wtf.
Gilbert slowly transforming into Dill
loved this shit
Sittin on this footage since Ishod only wore one layer to skate
Fuckin sublime! 👏🔥🔥🔥👊🙏
gilbert has to be in the SOTY conversation after this right?? mans dropped a solid 16 minutes of footage on us like it was no big deal...
Old footy
The parking meter - credit or debit?

Cee Blues
14:43 😂😂😂

Not even two minutes in and had to pause to comment on Gilbert’s back-to-back garbage can ollies. WTF.
There are maybe a handful of skateboarders with as much pop as him. The last ollie in the line at 1:32 has to be close to chest high.
can i get some boards?
Send a tape
Is location at 4:20 in Seattle?

Same song used by the same skater 😮 nice idea
And same tricks? 😮
Crockett is incredibly good at skateboarding, but I can't help but think he's extremely uncomfortable when he skates. Like he was trying too hard every time.
Probably because he’s doing shit that’s really hard?
