He's always had SUCH a great attitude and seems like such a genuinely good person. So humble and talented. It's crazy how he can switch wallie/wallride like it's nothing. That just shows how much board control he has. Amazing.
One of the most underrated styles, especially when you combine his spot selection. It feels like you enter Vincent world in his parts. Like a lot of the best, his style bridges skateboard history and genres. And as earnest as they come. 1 of 1.
Just a one of a kind man! Everything he's on I'll be there to support. Also reading all the comments makes it clear what a positive effect this dude spreads on us all!
I still remember his transworld feature from when he first went pro. I must have been like 12 or 13. Def appreciated seeing raza go in and killing the scene. I'm glad he brought up American Me. Shit looks different here in the midwest, but it definitely shapes you whether you're involved with that stuff or not.
I once ran into Vincent & his friends skating flat on a random block near the 12:00 spot. . I went up to them not knowing who any of them were.. They let me kick it & within 10 mins, they decided they were gna go skate a park in another city.. one of them asked him if I could go & Vincent said yea! Shit was so dope. I was in the back seat w em listening to wu tang like I was one of the homies & I had only known them for 10 mins 🙏🏼 such a cool guy
I love watching these so much, I’ve been a fan of Vincent too so cool to see and to know where he came from. Being a Latino skater myself from Arizona I can relate, my family mainly my uncles and cousins were all in that gang shit, they showed me love once they accepted that I wasn’t going to stop skating. In the beginning it was tough, I was made fun of, picked on, treated differently cause I was the one skater in the family. Luckily my Mom approved because she didn’t want me getting involved in that gang life. Anyways like I was saying my family realized I wasn’t letting go of skateboarding and I’m 31 now and I still haven’t. I’ll skate until I can’t walk.
Met Vincent a few years ago when I first moved to LA, it was me my friend and him and Jake Hayes and no one else at the skate park Vincent was super kind and a chill guy
I used to rewatch Vincent’s part in pretty sweet religiously when I was grom, to this day he’s got one of the best styles controlled chaos, I never understood how he could do pretzel variations switch he’s just on a different lvl
I love Vincent man dude doesn’t put himself out there much made an Instagram barely like last year it’s sick to see what he’s like in this kind of way!
I remember giving him a ride to LACC King of LA a couple blocks away told him he was gona Win he's like nah man You are. Such a humble gut glad we gave him a ride
Less than a minute in his handball comment. YES, I was in USA fed gov prison and these Mexican gang dudes absolutely loved handball and were highly skilled. Inmates can't have tennis rackets for obvious reasons. I've been skating since the 1990s. '93 til infinity , was a new song back when I started. I have white hair now
best dude, omg. I actually never paid too much attention to Vincent until now, you got me really good now. God bless you and your skating. We need more people like you.
Hell yeah Thrasher! Thanks for highlighting Vinnie Alvarez. My favorite skater from Big Hazard. Ha ok the only pro skater to come out of that hood. Keep going Vinnie you rock!
i feel like vincent would be hella fun to just skate with... like he wouldn't even try to intimidate as a pro. just pure optimism and stoked-ness. he seems like hes always hyped. respect bro. keep shredding and staying outside the box. i dig it.
i love that thrasher showcases alot of the RAZA , for me this is my skateboarding experience not going to tustin and hitting the wooden skate park up with the BROS
Vincents always been that skater i relate/look up to the most, first board i ever got was a used Vincent soda pop deck haha, but when i really started skating idk man his vibe just really stuck with me. being Hispanic, living in south central LA , just made me feel more relatable to him. I be seeing my neighborhood spots in alot of his parts. Makes me feel like alot of the shit i think is impossible really isnt😔
One of the best skateboarders in the game. Not just because of his skills but also because he’s latino. Nah just playing. It’s because of his genuine positive energy. VA por vida!!
Can we get more Rick McCrank segments? Those are one of my favorite, Grossos love letters to SB was cool too, and beagle's trip down memory lane. Please create more content like that! Like doccumemtaries kinda haha. And Grindland was Great👍🏻
This guy has a sick flow on any terrain. The ability to look that comfortable riding switch is sick. I've always loved people who don't do super tech tricks but have that ability to skate anywhere and stay on their board. IE: Dustin Dollin, Brandon Westgate
He had the sickest part in pretty sweet. Absolutely ripping with a fucked up worn to the nubs board inspired the shit out of broke poor middle school me riding the same board for a year at a time
One of life’s genuine nice guys. The sort of person that would make you feel good about yourself and not even realise the effect he has.
And someone sucker punched him!
sus!
th-cam.com/video/TMCOrD2XpyM/w-d-xo.html The skater next door is dope too!!!! it would be an honor if watched my move for 1min.thanx!!!
So sick dude, that kid is gonna remember that forever.
Super nice man
🙏🏼
That kid's gonna remember *making* that 3 stair forever. : -)
he my friend
BEST ENDING EVER great skater great episode thanks thrasher
Dude the end was so funny wasn’t expecting that at all 😂😂
I gotta start buying more board for guys like him. Supporting good people. I love seeing how these guys live and where they come from.
Man I fw this dude heavy. Genuine dude. Great skater. World needs more chill people like him.
vinny is one of the skaters i relate to most, especially in this day and age. Dude's pure street and just has hella fun
How could anyone all around not adore Vincent ?
Would love to see Vincent Alvarez and Fred Gall finds spots together and skate them, both skater's skate similar.
That would be SO sick!
Yes
That would make for some amazing sessions.
That would be awesome. The perfect collab🍻
When he said "I love the way that feels"...man, that's skateboarding right there...
There’s certain dudes that should always get a check for their contribution…Vinny is one of those dudes
Skateboarding doesn't owe anyone shit.
@@JoeSmith-gn1ki hi Mr Grumpy Pants
Such a beautiful talent, and I love his style. You are definitely right about that!
Yes. A pure pro skateboarder. Lifer.
He's always had SUCH a great attitude and seems like such a genuinely good person. So humble and talented. It's crazy how he can switch wallie/wallride like it's nothing. That just shows how much board control he has. Amazing.
Who does a Nollie back 180 going 30mph downhill? Haha Vincent's the raddest!
Not us Gus, not us🖖

Hope he reads the comments. Respect this man’s heart.

That was so perfect.
One of the best thrashers vids I’ve seen.
Most wholesome dude ever
Such a real guy. Happy to see him still getting some gnarly footage and backed by awesome sponsors!
Wow another gem. Thanks Vincent and Waylon

These Out There segments are the best
Love his humor and unique tricks

I've always appreciated Vince's smooth, chill style no matter what he was skating. Nice to know he's still got it.

Well glad you discovered skating too man
@@zt3433 thank you brotha! 🤘
Same but from WA
Most homies turned to bangers that I use to skate with. I still skate and snowboard at 29
@@nicktorres4064 that’s dope Brotha! 🤘 It’s definitely a hobbie that’s just a part of you.

Cool how he washes the car early in the video and it ends with him skating it and breaking the window
Straight G. One of the best
Pretty Sweet Out There, dude broke his own back window and thought of a blunt slide for the next trick, sick episode 👌🏽
So sick man! Vincent's the best!!
i love vincent as a skater and a person he has such humble beginnings and thats the type of stuff where i wish more skaters were like him.
Muy buen video, maximo respeto para Vincent
skatelife skate shop kids for life, Vince! always so nice to see anything from him.
Awesome video makes me wanna go out and skate and find/make some spots

Love vinces skating, loose and stylish, gnarly, techy, all killer. Thanks for the video
I always knew he was a cool dude but this video shows how good of a guy Vincent Alvarez is this was dope.
Yo that ending was priceless!
Such a positive work ethic.
Everybody killed it in the new Chocolate video, this dude deserved last part for sure
He took a skate stopper off his own car 😂
Absolute legend cant wait to see the chocolate video!
I could be wrong but I think the video came out last month.
Hell yeah Thrasher! Thanks for highlighting Vinnie Alvarez. My favorite skater from Big Hazard. Ha ok the only pro skater to come out of that hood. Keep going Vinnie you rock!
fave series on thrasher
Super genuine dude.
Walon did amazing with the video!
One of my favorites man. Makes me proud to be a Vincent lol
Same

Vincent is awesome , always ripping !!! 🤙👊
Great video, felt like late 90's again.
Best dude. My favorite videos on youtube are the ones i can hit the like button before even starting :)
Skate rat forever. Vincent is chocolate through and through.
Vincent looks just like a secondary character but he has a main character backstory
Legend, made my day!
i love this man
That first spot is so dope. Dudes a genius whoever was like we should totes make a chill spot in the alley next to that fire taco joint!
I love this guy
What a genuinely chill guy
i feel like vincent would be hella fun to just skate with... like he wouldn't even try to intimidate as a pro. just pure optimism and stoked-ness. he seems like hes always hyped. respect bro. keep shredding and staying outside the box. i dig it.
I used to be a security guard in DTLA back in the mid 10’s and this guy was one of the coolest and most respectful skaters 💯
What a legend!!
i love that thrasher showcases alot of the RAZA , for me this is my skateboarding experience not going to tustin and hitting the wooden skate park up with the BROS
Alvarez is just a good dude. Awesome video.
This is one of the nicest, most down to earth pros in Skateboarding. Vamos Vincent!
the vibes are unparalleled.

DBC.. Daily Blessings Coming!
Thank You ALL for Skateboarding and Everything, Everyday.!!
Seems like a humble guy, who has also some deep sadness in him. Hope he can do his thing and support himself by it for the rest of his life
I never expected Vincent to be a Volvo estate man
Not for much longer so it looks. Hahaha.
@@genesis2187 I think he has two tho
@@trychaser2518 buaha what a lord.
This is great content
LOVE ME SOME VINNY ❤️❤️
Man, Vincent is truly the GOAT.

Vincent is really a professional without being a "corny" professional sportsman,to ride for Crailtap u MUST be a natural...
One of the best skateboarders in the game. Not just because of his skills but also because he’s latino. Nah just playing. It’s because of his genuine positive energy. VA por vida!!
Best dude ever
Right on brother💪✊👍👍
such an awesome guy

Please create more content like that! Like doccumemtaries kinda haha.
And Grindland was Great👍🏻
best one yet
So stoked to have this man’s signature girl deck
The last scene could be a magazine cover. That was insane!

His shoes are fucking sick btw. Some of the best shoes I've ever had. Probably going to get another pair soon.
Everybody light yer Vega!
Wish nothing but success for him

Best dude ever. SOTY FOR SURE
Omg, the ending was so unexpected!
BEST... ENDING... EVER! 🤣🙌
I always thought he was one of the best additions to Chocolate ever
