Elijah Berle was no doubt among the front runners for 2016's Skater of the Year award, especially after Vans dropped their No Other Way video. Although it was ultimately his teammate Kyle Walker who walked away with top honors, the magnitude of Elijah's part remains.
We're happy to see him get some more shine with his new signature colorways that Vans released, and now this rad little video of Berle cruising around his hometown of Santa Monica, and Venice. The community is embedded with the surfing and skateboarding history of the Dogtown era, which has and continues to inspire Berle. He's proud of where he's from, and rarely takes anything for granted, which is apparent in this candid vide, "At Home."
With a never-ending emphasis on travel, skateboarders scour the earth to find more/new shit to skate. And it’s easy to forget that much of the skateboarding’s style and culture was born by the beach. Elijah Berle takes it all back home in this exclusive video shot in his backyard of Santa Monica, CA, showing that ’surf’ style is alive and well.
