He might not have won Street League or any money this weekend in Barcelona, but he won our hearts. Like any great gladiator, he’s not the best because he wins quickly, he’s the best because the crowd loves him. Skateboarders everywhere supported him and got him to Barcelona, and he delivered (at least, in pure comedy). For the people, by the people – there is only one. #TEAMFORREST
UPDATE: One of our readers remixed the clip to WWF and it’s fucking perfect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsoldIxa4-Y
