Can’t stop watching his ender in Most Gutter. The rawness, the tech, the gnarly-ness of the spots, the song, the b roll, the cinematography, the editing. It’s like crack, I’ve watched it 20 times now. He hit a back 6 on a spot I don’t think even seen anyone spin before, sw cork 5 to concrete, cam Riley sized double kink, that ridiculously hard tail press into the huge down rail, this part had everything, not a single shot was filler, not a single moment was wasted. Urban segment gold.

Bro when I saw he had only like 2k followers on insta I thought it was the wrong account 😂. I know insta followers are shit metric but still that’s ridiculous.


Also Midwest on top, that region breeds fucking sickos

That’s fucked. I think he said something too like for this film he was trying his hardest to reach a new level. If that stories true then huge respect for him using that to motivate him to earn undeniable playtime in their movies. Maybe that’s also why they made 3 films instead of 1 this year? Idk but that story is whack and that seg is proof he deserves more playtime than like, literally the entire rest of strictlys street roster lmfao

Legit the sickest part I have seen in years. Being blown away like this brings me back to watching ski movies as a kid.

He's always been Slept on. There are very few skier's in the game that can spin all 4 ways with style like his. Look at his right 7 and 9 at Super unknown for example and his (right) un natrual lip 270's on. His snappy style with heavy tech tricks is similar to Mike hornbeck

caught me off guard. Back 6 to the bottom. Those two early front swaps on dfd were something else too. Don't see much of that ever on urban.

The whole film was fire but he really did stand out. Just when I thought some of the earlier clips couldn’t be topped his seg came on and it was just banger after banger, each w technicality, girth, and style. Major props to all involved in a true masterpiece 👌🏻 🤌🏻

Let me add, switch cork 5 to *Glass. Not rocks. It’s made out of recycled beer bottles in Milwaukee.

Someone said “stept walked so strictly could run/ do naked cork 7’s” and it’s the truest thing I ever read. They even act just as degenerate, just absolutely destroying property so the shot is perfect, building massive jumps at 4am to hit unthinkable spots, throwing TV’s off balconies, b roll of them dealing with cops, and just slamming so hard you could feel it in ur body. Felt like the good old days of when ski movies were a little more hardo

So I was kinda like “was that a cop or security?” in the opening segment. Drove by a cop car today and was like “holy shit they jumped over the COPS”!

Comparing Strictly to Stept feels so wrong, because Stept was literally untouchable in the Network to Mutiny and I doubt we will ever see a crew go as hard with as much commitment in the streets ever again.

That being said Seamus’ ender in Strictly gave me the closest vibes to a Stept part i’ve seen since Stept moved on. The soundtrack, spot selection, everything was eerily like Stept and it made me so fucking happy because to me those movies are the holy bible of street skiing. I got serious throwbacks to Claytons ender in the Weight or Cam Riley’s part in Weight. Fuck man thank you Strictly, didn’t really fuck with the other movies over the years but this fucking hit the spot.
