Did anyone else think that his part in Skimatic was really, really good? I especially liked the part where he tweaks the screaming semen

The way he rides switch is unique.. He has crazy style and it's nice to see him getting more exposure, can't wait to see what he'll be up to this coming winter.

But yeah, laurent + all of skimatic was truely amazing.

There's such good flow in his segment, especially when he does the screaming semen, double nose, the kinda handplant flip, then the rail...it all seems to flow so nice

ahhh, so it was gagnier...ridiculous though.

however, laurent has really boosted the style game to another level. that straight air screamin seamen that he tweaks out super hard is amazing, and its a straight air!

cork 180 is unbelievably perfect, blindside switch on the c to down kink rail is wayyy harder than he makes it look, 450 off the aframe over the down...pretty much his whole part.

oh and that handplant 3 was off the hook.

bump, watched skimatic a bunch this weekend. The grab where he leans forward and grabs near his nose in that switch cork five is just fugging sick. Everything else in the entire part is ill too.

did you drop from xgames?  Cause Dave has you on the list already. 

You should at least do x-games man, big $$$ and it would be great to see you in action.  You got to give Tanner some competition. :)
