I'm pretty sure Truman stressed harder than any other person I've skated with before. Chucking boards, breaking trees, and screaming obscenities are apart of the norm on a sesh with Truman and it's usually followed by him rolling away from a gnarly trick. With entertaining freakouts abound, the bottomline is Truman is down for skateboarding. Whether he's busy dressing up as a construction worker to fix a rugged spot or spending hours fixing runways and landings, he's always looking for ways to resurrect old spots. I guarantee you've seen a famous spot in a video that was skateable due to the handywork of Truman. So next time you're in San Diego and run into Truman, tell him thanks for the spots and watch your dome for a flying board. In the meantime, enjoy this part of Truman's leftover footage from Hesh Law and be sure to check out his opening part in the new Creature vid. It rips.
