Anyone know where this sloth is gillin?

Many of you may remember his last episode on NS where he declared he would never come back on this site again. partially due to hundreds of PM's asking about cameras and whatnot. Then he got sponsored by oakley and many kids were saying,

"omgggg I do 540s waaaay better then him why arent IIIII spancerized???"

Then recently someone posted an edit that was filmed partly by him and I remembered I was meaning to make this thread. If i can find it I'll post it.

So where is Landis skiing, still with oakley and surface was it? Whatchya know NS?

Wow, that edit was pretty sick! I too was wondering if Landis was still riding for Surface. Regardless, that little jump at the resort looked like it'd be mad fun!

Sorry, but you're 100% wrong.  You're thinking of his brother, Luke Tanaka, who was in the AmHour series and in Durtschi's Self Edit.

It's been gone for years. I think the creator pulled it off youtube a few days after posting it due to the NS backlash.

I thought hes been on recently. Maybe I just think that because I bumped a thread of his a week or so ago.
