Thrasher Magazine's 2020 Firing Line style piece on Sammy Baca's Double Rock project. He made twenty-seven bus trips from Vegas to land a kickflip on a huge rail for Baker 4.
Why skaters like it
Linked whenever someone needs motivation or is ready to quit a trick. Skaters point to the twenty-seven trips as proof of what perseverance looks like.
“… Skateboarding takes perseverance. Actual wars [VIDEO] are fought within yourself. If 2 hours of frustration is your limit, there will be very few high-skill level hobbies out there for you.”

What skaters said on Reddit
Yeah there is. As soon as I saw the clip I remembered watching it. [VIDEO]
2 hours is barely even a battle. Skateboarding takes perseverance. Actual wars [VIDEO] are fought within yourself. If 2 hours of frustration is your limit, there will be very few high-skill level hobbies out there for you.
Yes! Came here to post that, that rail is gnarly. [VIDEO]
The Sammy Bacca one really got me. He took a bus for hours each way to work this thing. Crazy what some skaters will do. It’s almost like a drug. [VIDEO]
I love seeing the slams, My War [VIDEO] might be my favorite series
Fair enough. But it didn’t hit for me like Sammy Baca’s my war did [VIDEO]
