Epicly Later'd: Brandon Westgate (Part 2/3)

You know when the Dalai Lama dies and all the older monks go out and scour the country side for his reincarnation? That's kind of what Steve Rodriguez does every time someone is poached from his team. Instead of laying out bells, glasses, and other assorted Lama possessions on a blanket to see if any of the young Lama candidates recognize them, Steve has a demo at Solstice Skate Shop in New Bedford, Massachusetts and lets the next big thing skateboarding come to him.

[@skatejam7]

[@christophercudahy9119]

Saw this kid at an emerica demo!!! Insane pop,style,tricks etc.... sick!!!

[@ErikCazares55]

He is so good the talent he has is unbelievable .. Such solid tricks and style it's like, all that footy was so old but had me in disbelief unlike a lot if stuff I see today.

[@CreditedBag]

Epicly Later'ds make me have so much more respect for the skaters.

[@isaiahedwards5952]

[@themanwomengirlboy]

He is Dewey from Malcom in the middle

[@edochoa3452]

[@ippeimorita]

To be honest his fs flips look cleaner than Reynolds

[@jeromeanthony4422]

Whoa that quick clip of Ryan Weibust was so nostalgic...I grew up and skated with him as a kid...his mom was my 6th grade teacher haha

[@Uproar187]

Hes such a cool kid...good to see him bigtime...big ups from NEW BEDFORD....

[@RumpWax]

I couldn't agree more, that skate park is 100% Talent Skatepark in south burlington VT. i drove 1 hour from sugarbush every weekend to skate that park as a teenager, it was owned by dave and hanna. The best skater there at the time was a kid named Colin Hale. My homies made a skate video called "A piece of time" And it really was that too...a piece of time, long gone now i have a wife and kids. (can still land a kickflip down a 5 set tho)

[@drinkingpoolwater]

he was the new level in skating when he came out. westgate set a standard.

[@shanealsop8496]
