Seeing BA and Freddy hit the Hideout DIY with their NJ homies will stoke out even the most jaded skater. Rejoice in the reunion of legends. 

The last of the extra Love Notes introduces even more LGBTQ+ skaters across the globe with clips from legends and newcomers alike.  

Expanding on their talk from the full Letters, Grosso and Chandler Burton get real about inclusion in skating and staying out of the comment section of your mind. There’s so much LOVE in these last notes. 

His love for skateboarding was absolute and he wanted to share it with everybody. Swipe through our celebration of Grosso’s life, a singular voice we lost way too soon. From the July 2020 mag. 

Grosso and Elissa sit down for a candid conversation on sexuality and skating. Listen and learn with two of the greats. 

Following up the last Letters, Cher Strauberry and Barker Barrett give some sound advice on making the session better for everyone. Bottom line, don’t be a dick. 

Our dearly departed Grosso gives love to the LGBTQ+ community in one of his final Letters. Leo, Elissa, Cher, Skylar, BA and more shed light on how skating can connect all of us. Get on board or get out of the way. 

Celebrate Grosso’s birthday with a special presentation by his Vans family and the people who knew him best. Lucero, Van Doren, Charno, Olson, Hunt, Salba and Armanto come together to remember skateboarding’s singular voice with stories and never-before-seen footage from Propeller. Legends live on. 

DLX is paying it forward, giving the proceeds they receive from the Vans Foot the Bill program to Grosso’s son and family. Get a pair and give back to your skate family.
