Gravette overcame these challenges and managed to get the footage that would change the course of his career by means of determination and a continuous passion for skating.


Just like so many of us out there, Gravette always dreamed of being in a Transworld video and not only did he accomplish exactly that, but he made a video part that would live rent-free in fans' heads for years to come. And still, watching this part today is just as mind-blowing as its release date!
