Whenever I say skateboarding should be fun, this is basically exactly what I have in mind. Ben Koppl (aka @rollersurfer) has been one of the best follows I've made on IG recently—this dude never stops spreading the stoke!
I don't even know if I'd call these tricks. This is uninterrupted fluidity. This is unplanned, purely natural movement...that just happens to be taking place on top of a skateboard.

It's a breath of fresh air.
Ben's feed is literally stacked with clips and edits that will 1) blow your mind and, 2) make you want to grab your board and have some fun. Every time. His bag of tricks is deep and diverse; a heavy blend of straight up skill, technique and pure imagination.
Keep in mind that he's just there at this ramp by himself, filming all of this solo and clearly having the time of his life. I know some of these tricks are probably staples for Ben, but the majority seem like they were pulled out of his hat like magic. So rad!
Honestly...this hit too hard. I'm grabbing my board and getting out there. I'll see you guys later!
Thanks for the spark, Ben! Keep it going.
