Grimple Stix | "Go Fly a Kite"

 Like the acid trip you never asked for and never ever wanted, every Grimple Stix video is an absolute headfuck. Seriously, I felt a bit of PTSD over a bad experience on Truffles in Amsterdam when I thought the floor had veins with blood flowing through it... it was a weird, weird afternoon. That being said, Grimple Stix is hands down my favourite company, a birth child of Anti-hero/Deluxe fucking about and responding to criticism from little trolls online who thought "anti hero has too many on their team, they're so outdated". Grimple Stix among with the other 5 offshoot companies they made at the time was a full on fuck you to what anyone else thinks and I love it.

 

What I love about Grimple Stix and this video, aside from Frank Gerwer, is it truly feels like it's a company for everyone. You've got cameos left, right and centre - you've got people with no board sponsors in there alongside people like Evan Smith... I mean, where do you see a company who doesn't take themselves seriously at all? A company who aren't penny pinching and maximising their profits to appease a board of non-skateboarders. It's so refreshing.

 

It's so sick to see Frank Gerwer still absolutely killing it, surely he's pushing 50 now? He could be 30 having said that, drugs take their toll on a man's body. But that tug boat front board down Clipper is stupid!!

 

Also, any video that has Ted Seeley footage in, is a video anyone's gonna love - I have no fucking idea who that guy is, no idea where he's from - but everytime I see his name I get so excited. He's got a bad of tricks that should make you cringe and throw up in your mouth, but for some reason they just work... it's kinda stinking but in the best and most mind-boggling way possible. Ted, you'll never see this, but I am your number one fan.
