Pretty much every skater has done a 50-50 to one degree or other. But no one turns up the heat quite like David. As seen in the May 2013 mag.

His royal Spookiness, David Gravette, grinds to drop for the front of the May issue (with free full-length Creature DVD) hitting newsstands, skateshops, and mailboxes next week.

Ben has a lot of moves, but this clip shows that the act of carving and grinding can be a hell of a thing. Sam Hitz introduces a classic from the 1990 Gullwing video.
