Passion Trip: Episode 2


Loading the player ...

The second episode of Lizard's Passion Trip aired today on the Thrasher site and once again it was pretty entertaining. This episode kicked off with the crew waking up lakeside at their campsite to find Dickson completely soaked after getting flooded during the night. I think it's pretty rad that these dudes are roughing it this gnarly and are still able to keep the skate life mentality alive throughout. It's probably pretty safe to say that Supra, as far as brands are concerned, probably have a pretty big budget, as they sell a ton of shit to hipsters and asian sneakerheads. That being said I'm sure Lizard could have rigged up some ballin hotel rooms for the homey's to stay in over the course of the trip, but the fact that they chose to go dirtbag style and camp the whole way makes the trip that much more rad. After a demo at BLX skateshop the dudes on the trip are led to one of the craziest houses I've ever seen, equipped with a gnarly backyard bowl deemed Satan's Bowl This crib is so crazy, full on hesh house with buses, gravestones, skeletons and a ton of tranny littering the backyard. The dudes, especially Lizard and Jaws absolutely kill this bowl and anyone who likes to watch pool skating is gonna love this. Lizard King does a bunch of weird tricks on the pool coping, including one I've never seen before that Lizard calls a crack pipe, surprise surprise. After the crack pipe, Lizard handles a super sick feeble right over the pool's loveseat, and I thought the session was shut down, but fuck no. Every bit of coverage I see of Jaws convinces me further and further that this kid is the ballsiest, gnarliest dude in skating right now. He absolutely shuts down Satan's Bowl with a bunch of insane airs in the pool including one insaaaaaaane bs air in the corner. After Satan's Bowl session the boys board back on the bus only to have Nuge bust out the tattoo gun for some late night, homey style prison tats. Bring on episode 3.
