How Chris Joslin rebuilt his body to win Skater of the Year & Trick of the Year Tre flipping El Toro

[upbeat music] The most prestigious honor in skating is probably being Skater of the Year, and then followed up by probably getting Trick of the Year, and you get both in the same year.

You gotta respect yourself first and foremost.

And I was like, "All right.

Here I go."

That one-

That was, like, the biggest debate in skateboarding for years, was like, was it a make or was it not?

When you're worrying about what other people are doing, you [censored] up your own [censored].

You're battling yourself the whole time.

If there's anybody that looks like a violent skateboarder, it's probably this guy.

[laughs]

Let me just do my little backside flip and get my good score.

That's a lot of [censored] to process for-

Yeah

... anyone.

Like, all right, I'm gonna wake up tired? Good.

Like [censored]-

Wow

... it's gonna be hard? Good.

Make yourself uncomfortable.

You'll be proud of it.

Most men are, are scared to talk about their feelings like that.

Mm-hmm.

I think that's another thing that made this year so special, was like, dude, it was like [censored] this close to it all being gone.
