The Legend of Peter F***ing Hewitt | SKATE TALES – Red Bull
Madars Apse accompanies Peter Hewitt back to San Diego where his lifelong skate career began!
San Diego’s Peter Hewitt is perhaps THE underground legend of the skating world today.
From a 1990 debut video part in Santa Cruz’s A Reason For Living, he has become one of skateboarding’s most storied shredders.
You could go so far as to say that Peter Hewitt represents skateboarding’s backbone: in a world where people like to push themselves forward, Peter is not competing in the attention economy.
The roots revivalist is one of skateboarding’s great soul survivors: longstanding member of the hellriding Anti-Hero team, elite vert skater, background pool charger and a skater almost revered for his spontaneous creativity in the gnarliest pits in the game.

A New Approach To Skateboarding With Takahiro Morita | SKATE TALES – Red Bull
Takahiro Morita is a very different sort of skateboarder, really. Japanese skating has changed the coastline of possibility in skateboarding, mostly thanks to the FESN movement. The Far East Skate Network’s videos brought the new Japanese way of seeing and of being to the wider skateboarding world, thereby making all of skateboarding society more imaginative- and maybe a little kinder, too. Takahiro is the brains behind the FESN, and someone more personally responsible for opening up the concept of what skating can be today than almost anyone else in recent years.
From cruising Tokyo to dazzling the Japanese art world, his considered approach to what skateboarding can mean makes him one of the most genuinely unique minds which skate culture has produced, full stop. Madars simply had to meet him!
