When I first watched this Brandon Gironda part from the Westchester-based video “duzzed,” I couldn’t help but laugh. I mean, the dude does a double airwalk flyout while skating to Rage Against the Machine, the favorite band of every angsty eighth-grader in the early 2000s. But despite the goofy soundtrack, there’s plenty of wild, what-the-fuck-was-he-thinking tricks on crusty spots that aren’t really spots (check that urban mega-ramp ender!) to make up for it. Brandon’s mix of irreverent gnarliness and unique tricks is what makes this part so entertaining.

I was in 8th Grade in 2000-2001, and my favorite band was 100% RATM. That’s so funny you wrote that.
That being said, I thought this part was sick, though the “American Dreams” breakdown makes me a cringe a little

Yeah, well it shouldn’t you fucking fascist.

Yea the song dig was out of place. That shit came out in 92. I was in 8th grade in 93. If you don’t know what you’re talking about leave it alone. That being said, holy fucking part!
