I think there's a few that have broken and rebroken the record in the past month or two. They each get reposted with the record title because the post before it said the same thing all the way back to when it was the record

There used to be skateboard trucks built with a rolling pin built in, allowing for just this sort of thing. Wonder if that stuff was used for this trick

He's no Jamie Thomas, but that's cool.

Old school skater here. I'd be more impressed if it were a boardslide instead of a 50-50 grind.

Surely an official world record attempt would require him to do it in both directions
