If you haven’t been following Eli Reed recently and his rampage on Jersey barriers and gritty Lower East Side streets, then here is your chance to be amazed.
We’ve been talking to Beckyfactory who recently cooked up this edit featuring some of Eli Reed’s most recent footy from the ‘gram, plus some unseen extras. Set to the smooth sounds of Sade, we were blown away by a lot of these clips and how easy Eli makes them look. If you’ve ever tried to jam up a Jersey barrier, then you know how finicky each different one can be, but Eli hits ’em all as if they were perfect quarter pipes. It might not be a perfectly filmed, VX or HD super serious skate part, but that’s exactly why we like it.

Mark my words: That highwater/white sock shit is going to bite fools in their fucking asses. It is absolutely the WORST style to come from skating. EVER. I really hope I’m around to hear you idiots explain to your kids how that was “cool”. It was never “cool” and never will be. You just look like a bunch of sister-fuckers who somehow meandered into civilization. And the amount of people I see rocking that shit is embarrassing. I’m so embarrassed for all of you. Not only are you copycats, but you copied the lamest shit possible. Lame copycats. I don;t think it gets worse. But I’m sure you’ll prove me wrong on that one too. At least the skating was decent.
