Frank Gerwer #7.




ASR Booth #2435.

Amid all the new strains of pressure flips, hippie jumps, and weird darkslides, Frank graced us with a bunch of quality skateboarding in Go Fly A Kite, the latest video from Grimple Stix. I think it's great Frank is still out there getting tricks.

It's probably hard to tell from the scan, but Frank is wearing Fallens in the Gerwer Baby ad. I've been skating their Patriot cupsole model more often than not the last two years. The Patriots are a reasonably well padded and durable sneaker. They reach a point after wearing them for a while where they do start to go downhill fast. I'd say the relaunch of Fallen is worth checking out if you're tired of the same old big time shoe companies.

In a sadly related note, the woman who was the model for the original Gerber baby recently passed away.
