Heavy tricks from the beginning, I really love how leon flows with the tricks, obstacles upon obstacles combined with sick drops into banks and wallrides that’s true street skating and this does justice to upholding the true essence of street skating, love you Leon thank you for this masterpiece hope to skate with you next year when I come out to LDN ❤️
I love how Leon has evolved into his final form. Used to love him back in the day so love seeing him still go hard
I can see where your meniscus went Leon! Many bangers in this piece! Very special. Heal well.
Hitting the oneie before watching this was truly a great decision on my behalf. Fantastic edit; Fall time, super chill music. Leon threw DOWN, lol. What a great edit.
A truly dedicated artist, making great use of one of the most unique cities on Earth... Beautifully made, outstanding work!
A true workhorse. Just without the dull or routine stuff. Quite the contrary actually. Thanks!
So amazing! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Leon
I felt like the datamoshing transitions fit the style of skating and the tone of the locations Leon skates and the music fit too - everyone's a critic. Thank you for the free content with a shit load of bangers. Such a crazy amount of clips crammed into this edit. 10 mins of quality skating! Skating in the UK is always a trip to me seeing people skate on cobble stone and brick walls and shit. I'd be getting caught up all over the place on that rough terrain. 👏👏👏
What an awesome edit congratulations Leon 🎉
Diggin all the rolls. Leon is incredible.
A paradigm shift in blading, well done Leon 🙌
Leon = OG!
Let’s goooooo 💙💙💙💙
Sublime! I can...and will watch that one again and again! Congrats Leon! 🔥
Absolute legend, well done Leon
Leon is too sick ☠️🤌🏽
Some Good stuff right there! 👍🏾
loved this so much. the editing and music was so fresh. and the skating was just georgeous. leon is a hero and a treasure. thank you.
Wasn't a fan of all those effects/transitions but I will always be a fan of Leon's skating. The man has an amazing eye for spots.
full of good ideas
Amazing, creative and original. Nice one. Leon rocking the Blah records gear, be good to hear them on the soundtrack
Sick Vid Homies
Hard skating dudes, graft and great dedication. Well done and thank you.
I didn't realize Leon was still kickin it! Whoa. That was a sick section. This needs to be downloaded. Everything this is true street blading!

Bravo Leon
SANTA ANA CA BABYYYYYYY
Who the hell gave the OK on those goddamn glitchy horrible effects?
That was pure joy and creativity. Thanks so much for making it.
Incredible!! Loved it.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Some imaginative lines in this 🙏
6:01, so sick.
Killer as always from Leon! London is such a hard city to skate, anyone know the name of the bardo pond song?
Insane !!
LEON!
It’s like the rougher the spot is, the bigger your trick is. Also nice EW sweatshirt!
Too rad fam!
💙💙💙💙
Are the compression bugs artistic license ? Theses got me totally distracted from the tricks.

Great skating, editing, music.
Bring on the individual 10minute skate sections.... best 😍
Such awesome stuff. Really inspiring skating. I always love seeing people experiment with random obstacles, so this was a nice treat. The editing definitely threw me off though. Glitchy artifacting and inconsistent framerate naturally just make my mind assume something is wrong, so it was something I had to actively try to ignore. It's a cool effect, but hard to break the association while watching.

This vid is sick!
Substance and style. Sick.
Lovely stuff.

Also crazy to consider he just stacked all these clips and then had surgery.
3:55 so scary to try this 🔥
❤❤❤
Oh wow! this might be looked back on as the beginning of a new blading era ☠️
🤙❤️
Really interesting editing compared to the last piece Them presented. Definitely wont say better but not at all worse just a very different feeling felt a little loopy but i liked it a lot!! really pump to watch again
cheers, GOD
Nice, love to see some UK content. I have to say I much preferred the second half with the clearer footage. 🔥 Still, big up Leon 🙌
Simply put - incredible skating. Leon is one of my favorite skaters and this section didn’t disappoint. Classic style on grinds & a very creative approach to the unique London cityscape made this extremely re-watchable. Cheers.
Truly great section. Agreed with others on the glitch effects. Once that tailed off, the section had a rhythm that kept you there. Kudos to Leon for all the nuances in those tricks.
AO top acid to roll on scary thin brick wall 😲
congrats to Leon - after all these years your best section yet
That was epic. Reminded me of old skate videos 🤘 sick style dudes
Heavy Slow Natural! Problem is Fear! If Drunken State!

Keep at it 💪
Not a fan of the weird drony music but am a fan of the quality skating 💪🏼
He's skated great for a long time, but I'd say 1/3 of this was b-roll. Was his ender really a stair bash? If he rides flat, its even less impressive.
Volume minimum, it's ok. I can watch now
Less editing is more visualizing. That's definitely too much guys.
Skating and filming was awesome! But.. to be brutally honest… The editing did my head in. I get where they were heading with the “grunge” feel etc. But if you are trying to “spice up” a dish.. just sprinkle on a bit for taste. Don’t throw in 14 hand fulls of seasoning, because it will only mask & take away the true flavour of the dish. (Leon’s skating,trick & spot selection) Throw too much in the pot and it tastes like shit.
I don't really think the video effect fits with the video ahhh I don't like it.
An edit should show the best of an skater and not disrupt his awesome skating with this glitchy cut and ears hurting Sound. Checked my Sound system after the first 50 seconds, cause I though they were broken. Thanks for the skating, but the editing was a total letdown. Sorry.

I had to stop after 2 minutes, I've hard time believing this is on purpose but the glitches seem to match the scenes transitions ...
The intro sound is disgusting.
💩💩
skating quality is no way as good as it was for pro's
I'm sure the skating was great but the effects were instant motion sickness. No thanks.
The style is good, but the editing is definitely disappointing
can't tell if the video is suppose to transition like that or if it's just shit
I want to like the skating but the transitions just kept snapping me out of it. I understand the artistic point of view, and maybe that feeling of irritation or being interrupted constantly by unnecessary things was the point, but I found this difficult to enjoy. Keep posting.
Buena intro, pero el resto nada del otro mundo.
so….screw everyone’s ears I guess?
Hate the editing. How many wall bonks would you like to s.. THEM-yup every clip
