Thrasher Magazine

Pro skater Sammy Baptista was in a catastrophic accident recently. He suffered significant burns and was in a coma for over two weeks. His family and friends have started a fund to help out.

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.

Paradise usually involves a baking sun, bikini'd babes, and a beach. But hell, a session at Double Rock ain't half bad...

Skate Sauce has a new Sammy Baptista video part up.
