Bucky Lasek Vert Sessions #8 with Moto Shibata, Tony Hawk, Jimmy Wilkins, Rob Lorifice and more.
If you were to tell me that one of the best vert skaters ever would come from Osaka Japan I’d have a hard time believing it. Moto Shibata is hands down one of the best to ever do it with style and a consistent bag of tricks that most can’t comprehend. I was lucky enough to catch a session with Moto, Tony Hawk, Jimmy Wilkins, Rob Lorifice, Reef Orlando and Jordyn Barratt at Hawks vert ramp before Moto headed back home to Japan. See why Moto is every skaters favorite skater. – Bucky Lasek
