  • Elijah only goes full throttle, unleashing from The City to the Southwest with Sonic Youth backing him on the track. He went to war for that channel gap!

    I had the illusion that skateboarding was fluid, that tricks just happened as you walked. A while later I discovered that the movements were repeated until exhaustion for a take to be filmed. I became even more of a fan of the sport after that.
