I used to skate with this guy several years back when he lived in Bethlehem, PA. He's style is pure and unadulterated - a true artist and genuine skateboarder, in the sense that he skates what he feels, as if it's being channeled. He doesn't skate for glamour; or merely to keep up with superficial fads. Jimmy Larsen is true to himself and what he does.
Hey, Thanks everyone who commented for the feedback. Just want to let you know I am filmer/editor/skateboarder/van dweller and just plain weirdo. I rejected technology up until about 9 months ago. Yes I never had a facebook, never had a smartphone, never had Instagram and to be honest i didn't know much about them or care! VAN DAYS started as an experiment to document the beauty of traveling and the underground. THIS IS NOT A CORPORATE PRODUCTION- Which means I do it ALL! I fund it, film it, and risk my life! With the help of randoms and friends...I have No house, no Shower, no health insurance. I simply love ALL that encompasses skateboarding and ART. This is just for fun, I am not trying to prove how good I am! I am just a skateboarder who has the resources to share with YOU. YOU INSPIRE ME.So thanks for the hate and lets go skate! Good Art comes with confusion! feel free to continue this dialogue...
no need to continue this dialog. plenty of others are making super dope footage filming and editing by themselves. maybe you should work on growing up and having a place to shower before dumping all your money into something you're obviously not all that talented in. i mean it was okay, but just okay. definitely not footage to show off.
Jimmy Larsen Hey I've been seeing all this shit feedback and wanted to say this was tight. I just think that you maybe should've kept out some of the footy and got some more tranny tricks cause that seems like your element but overall good shit.
this is skateboarding people, doing whatever you want and whatever makes you feel good, thats what life is all about. i will upload footage of me trying to darkslide a fucking curb, i dont care. its my footage and ill put it out there if i want. to each their own, keep up the good work dude.
how do you define: GOOD...there are no standards. but i really appreciate you using your finger muscles to type that...i guess according to your concept of good...then that was REAL GOOD! we all die alone.
what a wise and insightful statement; you've changed my life and how I perceive others, lol no, but seriously i was just expecting him to be better (him being on metro's channel and referred as a new team member)
REAL GOOD Understandable...everyone has there own taste...thats whats cool about skateboarding/art/life there are different genres for all...i understand if you think i should be better for your concept of "good" but that is not what Metro and/or Dieta are trying to convey...I think they just simply appreciate alternative approaches to skateboarding/life. Let me know where ya skate...maybe ill come by and we can shred? you might have a different opinion in person. I think everyone is good as long as they have HEART! oh and by the way i'm "him"
at 0:56 if you play it at .25 speed it somewhat looks like his back foot was slipping off his board and got it back lol that would've sucked to wishbone yourself right there
Yeah unique skate style and all that, but he seems oblivious to people around him by almost bumping into them and forcing them to stop quickly....that's rather dickish.
Thanks...i know i get dicey sometimes...I guess the only thing to say is: NEW YORK CITY has a lot of people. Ya and its hard to gauge ones awareness through a fish eye...let alone a computer screen displaying information that has traveled across an intergalactic cyber space highway. but yes...i appreciate your sensitivity and compassion for others...you sound like a wise community member!!!

Ignore the hate. Live your life however you want to. If it's skating 24/7 and you can find some way of making it happen then more power to you.
