Holy smokes. You gotta watch this one. Effortless snap, pure board control, wicked-tough tricks. Skating is looking good in 2012.

Here's the full KOTR 2011 video (all webisodes, back-to-back) plus an hour of bonus footage. Enjoy the wild ride one more time.

The LRG team handled Harvard Skate plaza with enough goods for a Yardsale including some sit down time with the Phelper and a special guest appearance from Theotis Beasley.

 Brian was hoping for the thrill of victory on this gnarly 50-50. Instead, he got the agony of defeat with a cranium crunch.

A buttery-smooth plaza and a team like LRG meant the tricks came non-stop, all-day. Seriously, these guys know how to produce. Here's Tommy Sandoval, Felipe Gustavo, Tom Asta, Rodrigo Tx, Rob Gonzalez, Billy Marks, and many others.

Here's young Sammy showing signs of becoming one of the most consistent switch skaters of all time. For the record, he's regular foot… We think. Tom Asta introduces this part from the 2002 Shorty's vid.

We hit Spain for 21 days.   No one around for miles.  Check Cards last line - tech street gap and then a dose of the gnar gnar.  It's out there, find it.

Before anyone could tell Felipe that this line would be too difficult and take too many tries to film, he got the make and was ready for lunch.

Here's Lakai taking the win and a recap of all the insanity from one of the best KOTR's ever. Pure skateboarding, adventure, stoke, whatever you want to call it: a big thanks to Lakai, Vans, Nike SB, and Dekline for joining this strange ride.
