Figgy has never been one to take it easy. He’s been charging full-speed at some of the gnarliest spots imaginable for decades now, and his part in Riley Hawk’s War Cry proved he’s still all gas, no brakes.
Lucky for us, he’s letting us in on the raw side of the process, and just dropped 13 minutes of behind-the-scenes battles, slams, close calls, and triumphs from the sessions that ultimately made his heavy part what it was. Settle in and press play:

I love raw clips because you really get a chance to feel the energy of each session—the frustration, the stoke, the determination. Our favorite pros are really good at making the tough stuff look easy, but it takes a lot of work to ride away from the tricks most of us wouldn’t even attempt.

So, yeah. Figgy’s commitment is on full display here. He’ll take the slams and he’ll fight the battles, but more often than not, he’ll secure the clip. The dude is a straight up beast! And he’s looking as strong, relentless, and gnarly as ever these days.
If you haven’t watched War Cry, do yourself a favor and tap that post above. Riley did an incredible job editing it, the skating is top-shelf from beginning to end and Figgy is just one piece of the gnarly puzzle that made the video an instant classic.

“Shout out to Beagle, Austin Ayub, Lannie Rhoades, King Henry, Chris Gregson, Tim Siclino for the time,” Figgy wrote on YouTube. “It barely feels like we are making progress during, but here we are.”
And honestly, that’s skateboarding in a nutshell, right? The struggle, the repetition, the self-doubt. But hey, it’s always worth it in the end. If you love raw clips, this is a must-watch. Smash play and step into Figgy’s world.
