When you think of raw, unfiltered skateboarding, the name "Dustin Dollin" always comes to mind, if you ask me.
The Aussie powerhouse—known across the globe for his no-nonsense skating, heavy slams, and even heavier partying—was recently in the Ain’t That Swell podcast hot seat and rambled on for an hour of pure, uncut Dollin storytelling.
Entertaining? Oh, absolutely. But it's pretty insightful all the same. Take a look:
From getting paid to getting wrecked, losing friends to making music with his new band, "A Fine Mess," and so much more, Dollin lets loose and dives into it all at full speed.
We hear the OG Piss Drunk reflect on his early days in skateboarding, how the industry has changed, how he’s kept moving forward after years of "hard living and harder slams," and peppers in more than a few wild stories along the way. The dude has seen it all (and then some) and is still out there charging through life the same way he always has to this day.
If you’re familiar with Dollin, you know he’s not one to hold back—and this episode is no exception. He has always had a larger-than-life personality and you could argue the dude has never really had a filter. That approach doesn't always work, but for Dustin, it's all he (and we) knows. Long story short—the dude has a lot to say!
I've always been a fan of Dollin's skating. It's wild and unhinged and downright terrifying most of the time, but skateboarding wouldn't be the same without him, that's for sure.
What else can I say? Press play and hold on tight. This is one helluva ride.
