Blake Norris with a higher skill level but even less character. Somehow these pint size meta boys just don't do it for me. There were accents of greatness like that suski and the sw bs flip but they were marred by the boring trendy front noseslide flipout and bs overcrooks crap and if that wasn't enough the absolutely horrendous music and editing delivered the death blow. That being said it's wild to me how people on here seem to agree that he is the sidekick in the combo with Jaeb. This kid is way more gnarly and exciting to watch with a first part that puts an entire am-squad to shame while Jaeb has yet to deliver. Doesn't it seem way more likely that Toby might jump the entire queue on REAL to turn Pro while Jaeb is about to be overtaken by Mota and Kyonosuke?

I thought the whole part was great including the music, kid's a goddamn beast. One of the best parts of the year. Thankfully his name isn't Maxon Brocken or something.

But yeah, I do wonder how hard he's made it for the flow and am squad to move up.

He still has two first names and Toby is a pretty fucking weak name.

And regarding the cool guy checklist, how does one even "pinch" a frontside noseslide?

The song wasn't that offensive even though I wasn't really feeling it but this kid rides away from every trick with his mouth agape like "wow I just did that?!"

I don't know what to think anymore. Part of me is probably just being a crusty contrarian cunt but 6 minutes was too long and nothing really stood out that much in this era where everyone is obscenely good.

Unrelated but, how long has that kinked rail been at Wallenberg, and has anyone grinded it?

Gotta agree this guy is a much bigger draw than Jaeb  in that tag team. Kyonosuke def should be pro first/is much more interesting.

Hard to get psyched on anything these days, all these lads are just too good

That filmer bobbing every trick really kinda jacked that part up. It made it feel like the entire thing was filmed on phone.
Do you get deja vu, huh?

Super good... just stomps it.
I trip on anybody that can make those rails in Houston look little (I know that's a long list, but still). Those things are nasty.

Crazy skating, but the part was a little long (didn’t need the guest clips), the filming wasn’t great, and the scraping-the-barrel Emo soundtrack was extremely uninspired and didn’t fit the skating.

The Emo trend needs to die already; once it’s been in a Real edit, you know Emo has been done to death.

undeniably talented but whole thing felt lifeless idk

also if Real turns this grom pro before Hermann, we riot!

My first thought watching this was “ they’re gonna turn this kid pro before that laundry list of ams that have been on for years”  I wonder what’s worse career wise - Crail flow or real am since both are such notorious purgatories.

Kids real good tho.

I’m gonna go with Crail’s worse. There’s a better package deal at Deluxe, the money might not be the best but at least it exists, everyone says Theibaud is the nicest, and they never seem to let anyone go. If you just want some kind of career, it seems to be there. Crail’s video output has improved in recent years, I do appreciate that. A bit more pep in their step.

Gnarly but mostly boring stuff (and the song does not help) but the switch bs flip up the euro and the switch fs 180 to bs flip were beautiful!

That’s fucking wild. Tanner is one of the most interesting guys to come up in the last few years. Wonder what happened there?

Really the only thing I have to add about this Toby part after my second watch is I was kind of distracted by how fucking big this kids wheels looked. I’ll definitely watch this part several more times but damn those wheels.

Ventures and big wheels have been trending lately from what I've seen.. a bunch of kids at my local park and on IG lately with that setup.

I haven't been excited about Real edits as of late, but this one took me by surprise. Toby fuckin rips. Never heard of him until this part came out, but a 6 min welcome part with a NBD nollie trick down wallenberg is pretty nuts

Video parts these days are getting harder and harder to watch, and age has nothing to do with it.

Real recently cut some riders including Gavin Bottger and Tanner I presume. Maybe they're trying to go in a new direction or something

Now I gotta know what happened for Tanner Van Vark to be cut from vans and real. Dude has a super interesting back of tricks and that “T.V.V.” part was insane.

Yeah not to derail but I, too, am now more interested in what happened with TVV
Is there any money in skateboarding film anymore?
I dunno about money, but the fun is boomin.
