Check Out this Barefoot Skater
You ever see one of those barefoot distance runners? It seems wild, but people have won marathons barefooted. One imagines you build up some durable soles of your feet by running barefoot…or skating barefoot. Did you know some people out there skateboard barefooted? It’s true, remarkably, and the prolific folks over at Braille Skateboarding have highlighted one of those skaters.
Braille proclaims Ebon Turner the greatest barefoot skater there is. Now, maybe that’s like being the greatest submarine baseball pitcher, impressive, sure, but the competition is limited because it’s rare and a little odd. Nevertheless, we’ve never seen anything quite like Turner, who does all the stuff we’ve seen skaters do time and time again, but barefooted. Is it novelty? Yeah. Is it impressive? You bet. Did we cringe, like, 50 times watching this video? Absolutely. Now you can too!
