The peoples Champ…Louie Lopez. Always crushing it and with a smile on his face. Blessings and Respect
Battled addiction for 20 years before realizing all i need from life to be happy is riding bikes and watching the sunset. Such simple things that bring such freedom.
Thank You Raemers Foundation for spreading good vibes and love.
Me too dude, Xanax and alcohol ruined my life, lost everything I had going for me skating. got arrested, was homeless. I’m 150 days sober now and picked up rock climbing and am back to skating everyday, and am better than I used to be now, Finally I wake up again excited for the day. Never thought I would make it out of that funk I was in!
Louie, you’re going to make me cry damnit. You are being the best version of yourself and being that rock for everyone around you. Please don’t forget to reverse your Hero role anytime you need help. Louie is an American Treasure.
As society continuously becomes a more solitary and digital existence its more important than ever to check in on people and make sure your friends, family and loved ones are doing alright. I skateboarded most of my life then got into IV drugs and then like anyone else you stop skateboarding and do only drugs. After 5 tries in rehab it finally stuck and I have 12 years sober. There is a negative connotation associated with getting mental help where people think its "weak". Go get help people staying alive is never "weak", its "smart". You owe it to yourself and your family. Great channel and great message! Subscribed! 😎🙏
that little red rail looks so fun
I’ve met him before he was at a signing, he was super busy with all the fans but he took his time to talk to me. This guy needs to win SOTY and a noble prize
What a great example for the new generation
Louie gives a beautiful example of life! happiness is hidden in the little things ❤
Louie seems like such a rad genuine and humble dude. Massive fan!
Great piece, Louie..... Shout out to the legend Jeremy Wray... Rip Jonas..... Whittier/La Habra all day
As a psychiatric occupational therapist/skater, what you're mentioning with routines and structure really hits home on a professional and personal level for me. What you're doing in the foundation is immense. Love to hear fellow skaters put to words what we all deal with at some point. That feeling of being seen and understood is priceless. Thank you for participating Louie.
I got to judge Louie in CASL competitions when he was a little guy and knew he was super special, and then was I lucky enough to skate with Mark Suciu when he was like 13. I instantly knew these two would be something one day if they kept skating...pure prodigies.
Mad respect Louie 🙏
I’m a 50 year old skater that started when I was 4. I’ve watched you skate since you were tiny.
My respect just grew 10X
Louie and t puds are my two favorite skaters. Louie seems like he can do anything. Switch, fakie,nollie, shuv tricks, kick ins and outs,cab tricks, tranny, crazy wallride tricks, etc. And hes unique and creative
A true OG at such an early age. Mad props always for Louuuuuuuu ❤️
I would feel jealous of my friends that didn't drink, as if it wasn't an option for me. I finally decided to take a month off of drinking to "reset," and here I am coming up on 3 years sober. Waking up on the weekend with no hangover and a full day ahead of me was a crazy feeling. Easily the best decision I've made in my adult life. Also - that feeling of freedom and exercise you get with a gravel bike is insane. Highly recommend both.

This made me smile. I quit drinking three years ago, and it's made such a difference. Nice one Louie.
The people’s champ 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Damn straight!
Perfect timing hearing this. Thank u
You're a great guy Louie, thanks for putting a video out like this

Louie the best skater seems like an awesome person keep it up you are amazing and so fun to watch skate!!
Love your outlook Louie, thank you for sharing 🙏🏼
I never followed this guy when he was young. But in the past couple of years I’ve been seeing more of his footage and personal life. He seems so down to earth. I like him and his vibe.
If my son grows up to be like Louie Lopez I would be very proud
Enjoyable and motivational, thanks!
This guy is a leader, and is providing a positive example for others. Very impressive, keep it up!
one of my fav skaters. Haven't had a drop for 4 months and now guess I'm going for a year. Need to pickup some Louie 52mm's!!
another sweet skateboarder personality emerging. lovely piece. ❤
love this guy man
What a great clip! Awesome! Great vibes here! That ending was so heartfelt too! Sneaking that pic wit little one! LL for the win!
What an awesome vibe! Keep it up you guys!
Can relate to this. I stopped drinking alcohol a few months ago and also started riding my bike a lot more since I have a lot more energy. If you've been thinking about taking a break, just go for it to feel what it's like. It can be hard to break the cycle at first, but you won't regret it. Life's soo much more chill.
Thanks for this
Louie is awesome. That park looks great.
Louie, you a stand up dude
