Nick Trapasso #2.


HO-TEL!

Nick was the talented am from Phoenix with the very relaxed style. He relocated to California during the days of Bootleg in the early 2000s. Nick turned pro for Toy Machine and got in on the ground floor at Converse's rebooted skate program. He had previously ridden for Vans. Converse was quick to give him a pro shoe, too. He had a great part of big stair tech in Thrasher's Prevent This Tragedy video from 2010. He would leave Toy Machine to start Life Extention in 2012. As of 2023, he was working at a motorscycle dealership.
