      True that! One question, tho... so what was up with his cheek/skin, couldn't quite make it from the video as sound was a little bit sub-par so hard to decipher certain parts. I assume he said it had to do with little sleep or someth.? Like stress/exhaustion? Thx for replying, just plain curious. More importantly, Carlos looks great now (esp. for his age!), so happy he's had it all done with and cured/resolved/whatever. Hyped to know that and looking forward to new footy!

      Ye I think the idea though is to have mid/low level skaters so the average person watching can relate.
      You watch Jaws ollie a 25 stair and you just cannot imagine doing that. Most of us just hope to be as good as Nigel or Uzi tbqh. We're not pros and never will be, just wanna be able to land a few tricks and have fun. Yea you always gotta push yourself but for some just enjoying themselves is enough.
      Like say what you will about their skill levels as a beginner skater those guys are significantly better than I am and give me a realistic goal to strive towards. If you watch exclusively pro parts you will just get bummed out cause you'll probably never be that good.
      Just my 2cents. :)

      oh man skateboarding sucks. The larger the wheel the faster it goes, so skateboards have the smallest wheels and so they are the slowest at the skatepark. So yeah scooters are faster than skateboards. But you wont see it cos the riders are cowards. Blades are just the best, take my word for it.

    the point that impressed me the most was when Carlos was talking about wanting to help people get better at skating in general and he says "give them as many pointers as I learned from braille". He did NOT have to tie back to braille at that point he could have said so many other things but this man is a damn professional and a pragmatic speaker and he has my utmost respect forever.

    I loved Carlos and always wondered what his story was. So happy to see the reason was nothing serious and he's happy and healthy as he should be :)

    Carlos helped me land a shuvit with his tutorials and advice. Such a cool guy, looking forward to seeing what he does next.

    Dude, that boardslide down the 20 ft. block had to be the coolest/sickest boardslide I've ever seen. Carlos Lastra is the man and I don't care what he does. This will always be my go to boardslide footage. I felt like I was watching some crazy trick off of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater. It was flawless and he made it look so simple. Too clean. If he ever reads this I just want to say that I know you're going to do what makes you happy and what's best for you but you're one of my favorite skaters ever. Not only because you're a great skater but because you have tremendous mental fortitude and you put your heart on the line in anything you do. You're also very humble. I wish I was half as cool as this guy, not as a skater, but just as a person in general (besides the skating). I bet a lot of people look up to him just from his attitude alone. Including me. Doesn't really matter where he ends up because he's going to make the world a better place every place he goes to.
