Pedro Barros.



Don't fall.

Pedro is from Florianópolis, Brazil. He rides for Vans and Independent. I am not sure if he has a board sponsor. Pedro was riding Real and Anti-Hero boards in his most recent Thrasher interview. Some of his favorite skaters include Leo Kakinho, John Cardiel, Tony Trujillo, Heath Kirchart, and Nilton Neves. He's one of those folks who totally rips at ramp and park skating. A couple of the guys from the shop here went out to SF at the start of the year and got to witness Pedro skate in person. They said he is on a whole other level of good.

The layout reminds me of a Dogtown ad from 1990.

Mason Silva for SOTY? The dude is ridiculously great at riding a skateboard. Have enough years passed since somebody on Deluxe last won the award so it won't look like Thrasher is playing favorites?

Looks like he has a deck out from Pocket Pistols with some Ron Chatman art.

I wasn't sure if Pocket Pistols was still going. The Instragram is current, but their website looks like it hasn't been updated in a year.
