Raw Run Flashback: Pat Switzer

16 Feb

From SkateHouseMedia:

“Two years ago, Pat Switzer stayed at the skatehouse for a couple of days before embarking on a storied road trip up to the Maryhill Festival of Speed in Andrew Mercado’s infamous white van.

Pat filmed the whole trip; but never put out any of the footage. We did manage to get our hands on a raw run from here in LA, which turned out to be one of our most popular videos.

Fast forward to last month. Patrick was in LA, hanging out at the skatehouse. We asked him if he still had that old footage of him skating as night fell. Dude obliged, and we present it here for your enjoyment. Special thanks to Matt “McLovin” Livingston for driving like a maniac to get the footage.”
