I'll admit that sometimes, words just get in the way. When a skateboarder can simply let their skating do the talking, there's nothing better. Baker Skateboards knows this—and their latest clip featuring Stu Kirst is the perfect example of why less is often more.
He's wild and reckless in all the best ways, and that certainly isn't a bad thing. In fact, his board control is something to admire, and his approach to every spot he skates is super refreshing. Stu has been killing it for a while, and like we've said before, we're stoked to see him rolling with the Baker squad.
They just hit us with an "update" from the streets and it's gonna get you stoked. Some things just make sense. Peep:
Slams, some trippy audio, heavy clips—this short but sweet update is actually pretty loaded, and honestly, it'll leave you wanting more. Just wait until the Smith grind to dumpster knockout—you'll see. That one had to feel good. This is raw, pure street skating at its finest.
While he might've got robbed on that hairball, back-alley front board, something tells me we'll see the make sooner than later. Regardless, every clip in this edit proves that Stu is one of the real ones. He just looks rad on a skateboard, you know? Some dudes just have it.
I know there are a ton of ripping skateboarders out there these days. And with that said, skateboarding is a million things to a million different people. But skaters like Stu are out there keeping it real, and we love to see it. Baker has always known how to pick 'em! Can't wait to see what this dude hits us with in the years to come.
