We are stoked to see Chocolate slowly rising back up to the relevance the brand used to have. A reason for that probably is the breath of fresh air brought by the new team riders, but also still including some OG riders on trips. Who doesn´t love to see a Vincent Alvarez skating the same spot next to the young Erik Herrera?

Filmed & edited by John Marello.

This time the crew takes a cruise through downtown LA where you get busted quickly.

Featuring Yonnie Cruz, Sean Malto, Andrew Brophy, Tyler Pacheco, Kenny Anderson, Vincent Alvarez, Mike Carroll, Stevie Perez and Diego Johnson.

Even in the sunny land of LA it occasionally happends that it is raining. So for the latest Crailtap Weakdays episode the crew had to take shelter at the Crail Park.

Featuring Jerry Hsu, Vincent Alvarez, Justin Eldridge, James Capps, Jon Sciano, Andrew Brophy, Braydon Szafranski, Rick Howard, Brandon Biebel and Chris Roberts.

With its ups and downs I’d say 2016 was all in all a solid year for Girl and Chocolate Skateboards. Some of the good moments of the past year are composed in this review edit.

Featuring Vincent Alvarez, Tyler Pacheco, Brandon Biebel, Simon Bannerot, James Capps, Jerry Hsu, Mike Carroll, Rick Howard, Rick McCrank, Justin Eldridge, Kenny Anderson, Andrew Brophy, Elijah Berle, Cory Kennedy, Chris Roberts, Jeron Wilson, Zach Saraceno, Griffin Gass and Johnny Jones.

Fly outs, lines, back-to-backs and good times. That’s what Girl and Chocolate Skateboards made of their day at Rosemead, California. To see Andrew Brophy in there as well is maybe not enough to claim that with Girl he might have found a new board sponsor after Cliché went out of business, but still interesting enough to start a rumor.

Featuring Tyler Pacheco, Vincent Alvarez, Simon Bannerot, James Capps, Andrew Brophy, Justin Eldridge, Rick Howart and Jerry Hsu.

We are guessing but this one is probably in honour of Keenan Milton and there are some definite highlights in this, Kenny Anderson is always a highlight, Vincent Alvarez is pretty great and the unexpected Brian Brown line is just straight gold but somehow the clip still feels kind of random. Random sprinkled with gold.

Der vierte Teil von Chocolates Epicly Later’d ist draußen. Ein wichtiges Thema in dieser Folge ist, wie Skater damit umgehen, wenn ihre Zeit als Pro zuende geht. Sie geben Einblicke in das Proskater-Business und berichten, wie der Druck irgendwann zu hoch wird.
Wieder mal viele interessante Einblicke in das Leben von aktuellen Top-Fahrern, aber auch alten Chocolate Teamridern:
