As Gnarly As It Gets: Chris Russell Raw Skateboarding Footage From 2013-2018

Filmer Josh Peacock is back with another raw installment of his footage from decade's past. This time it's pool/transition/concrete gnarler Chris "The Muscle" Russell attacking everything from backyard pits, to Mammoth Mountain's hellish walls, to the streets and more. The two enders at Washington Street are absolutely insane.  Get into this one:

The opening sequence of taking hit after hit in that backyard pool is nuts. Chris is a master of surprise hang-ups and reverts out of airs when you aren't expecting it. He mastered a lot of "old school" style airs and inverts, catching the eye of the Creature team, a brand he still rides for to this day. Those stand up 50-50s are something else. Rad to see him hit Mammoth in a couple different phases in these years. You can see the power growing!

If you missed Josh's transmission of Ben Raybourn footage from yesteryear, do yourself a favor and run this one back:
