We spent an afternoon at Austyn Gillette’s home in Los Angeles and heard all about the HUF NYC trip that he scored the cover on, recovering from his double knee surgery, and why he rides for WKND.

Austin n Dylan...both probably the most stylish skater's ever.
Oh boy. New York is a state. If you're talking about going to New York City, just say NYC. Nobody says, "So then we headed to California to do some filming" when they mean SF of LA. Very tired of folks acting like the five boroughs = "New York". F that.
Switch front 👃 kickflip was 🔥
For those that wouldn’t know. A knee injury and on top of that skating again. It’s for sure different. From just the pop of every trick to having to limit your skating at times
I'm currently in the midst of recovery after a full knee reconstruction surgery, tore up my acl and mcl Nothing is worst than being off your board
RESPECT FROM GREECE!
Bye bye HUF
The fact that he went thru all of this shit back a fowards and then one of his best mates Dylan dying , austyn is a true soul that deserves alot of love man , dudes had it fuckn hard
First Song name?
Watching him skate makes my tingles jingle
Anyone know the song at 2:30?
inspiring
we love you
ohhhhh i thought it said autism in the title
Does anyone know the songs playing in the background?
this must by my biggest nightmare
respect bro ..
Austyn is an insane skater, but his personality and image is too forced.
Manmelt what are you talking about?
his habitat day in the life, "i don't smoke cigarettes but I buy them from places i go"
you aint dylan bitch
Go Austyn!
Dylan and austyn share the same aesthetic. They are like yin yang
Austyn should be SOTY like every year. Nobody skates like him and he never fails to deliver. Thanks Austyn
A good lesson on Never Giving Up even when you have mountain like obstacles to face
this is crazy. i didn't know this about him. makes me appreciate his skating even more.
depressing
What pants does he wear???
Tony Pelzer Former
Something I've always wondered about. When a skateboarder has a gnarly hospital bill - surgeries etc. do there companies pay for it? And do they still get paid when bed ridden?
Loving the Richard Hawley vibes ~
What is the song of the end?
Looking motivated and focused. I think we'll be seeing a lot from him
I watched the fakie tre flip at 5:03 ten times
In love
a switch front noseslide kickflip out is insane, but this is not at a park, this is a massive tiago style rail.. favorite part Rieder/Gillette 2017 SOTY
It's his knee valgus in his style on his pop leg that probably caused his knee injurys.
sweet
i find most pros lack diversity in activities and other hobbies in general
never realized how hot he is
if he knew what he knows now? what other way do you go about treating a miniscus tear besides surgery?
Time, rest, physical therapy, glucosamine, time, rest, more physical therapy, icing, heat, icing, moving the knee. hopefully it heals on it's own but in Austin's case, skating is clearly an aggressive thing to be doing when you're trying to fully recover!
Someone get this man some yoga classes
Well his comeback footage is def second to none.
That was great. I didn't know he had surgery on both knees. I know he was suffering from some sort of Injury. So much respect for that guy. Even if he has me blocked on the gram. Lol
hilga hendrix nah, I mean, I have done that, nothing directly toward the individual itself. I think I got blocked bc I was arguing or holding a convo with someone on one of his posts. So I'm sure it blew his IG notifications up.
7teenageSmokers you probably commented some dumb shit
awesome dude !
The rieder is strong in this one
That’s who he took his style from
Love Austyn such an unique and neat style and i don't know if i'm the only one but he reminds me of Dylan 🌹
Tomas Darby they don't call him discount dylan for nothing. but he is an amazing skater
dats tait main
Nice to know I'm not alone in having similar knee problems. This video has definitely inspired me more to get my shit handled and come back stronger. Thanks Austyn.
Thats the reals :)
been through 3 ACL surgeries, nothing more depressing than being forced to do nothing for months/years, can't imagine how bad it was for him being a pro, props to him for pushing himself the right way
i would suicide nigga
3 man! I had one and it was bad enough.. thats mad
Anybody know what kind of khakis he's rock'n?
Dislikes!!?? WTF!!? if you don't find this amazing you're pretty much fucked up!
my fav skater hands down
keep pushing!
When I saw that photo of him in the wheel chair I thought fuck how did he break both of his legs.
So much style and pop. Rad he's still killing it so hard after those gnarly knee injuries!
what pants is he wearing in the interview? is he spono by dickies
Yo! Pretty sure he's wearing a brand called Basic Rights. They sponsor him I'm pretty sure
deleted his comment ...triggered
haha I knew when I posted this I would get a comment like this, so predictable. To be honest though I genuinely don't care. I was just asking because they actually look sick and was curious. I already have my own style but there is nothing wrong in reaching out to new areas to put your own touch on things. Nothing is really original these days anyway. Most ideas are based off something before, even if you don't think so
@Hank Hill And IDworlds videos has at least one troll talking shit. Time is money fucker. You waste your weekend trying on clothes. I'd prefer to cut to the chase and keep it push'n!
I feel like all skateboarding videos have one of these guys asking the same question about pants, jesus dude go outside and try some shit on it isn't hard to find your own steeze no need to bite someone else's shit.
this dude kills it so hard... one of the best styles
I have the same injury in my left knee at the moment, its so shitty
nochi wakeford same for me. MCL and Meniscus. Can't wait to play football again ⚽️.
So happy to hear hes back skating i know how injurys go my neck is fucked and im in physical therapy right now too.... Hope u stay healthy Austyn!
this was nice
I had the same issue! dont get that meniscus tear surgery, I went from pain randomly to pain all the time.
They can not fix a tear so they cut it out. So now I have a small area in my knee that is bone on bone. I also have a torn meniscus in my other knee that I didn't get surgery on and it rarely bothers me now. It's still gonna be different for everyone, with physical therapy, and health, and weight. Just get a second opinion and research your doctor.
Salvatore Raciti really?
New skateboard channel, sign up, tutorial and more !! Thank you
Sintonia SkateBoard sub
That rick flip in the WKND vid tho
Bro, this is the guy who deserves being soty!!
hope u get 100 % on skate again dude, take care
SOTY
SOTY 2017 for sure!
@9:21 damn I didn't know Seth McFarlane hung out with the weekend guys!
10:00 is that rick grimes
Much respect to Austin for keep pushing and HUF for backing him so much during his injury
Ippei Morita I see you all around IDworlds bro. Do you see me all around IDworlds?
Had the exact same injuries. Got my 1st operation when I was 11. sucks. Had my last operation 3 years ago when I was 30. it's only about 70%. I've been looking at stem cell injections in Germany, I hear good things.
you should wear bigger pants. if your nuts are nut stuffed into a girl pant your much happier. you feel good man. but keep doin your thing. if you feel fucked up luke at duane peters and this is not a joke. hes still out there or danny way. keep your head up boiiiiiiiiiiiii
Wow. What an incredible and understated comeback. I loved his habitat origin part and then he started to fall off my radar a bit, but everything he has put out this year has been absolute gold. Glad to say he is one of my favs now
anyone know the song at the end?
MiscTER Cellucor Brah thanks dude!
MiscTER Cellucor Brah Thanks man really appreciate it :)
Daniel Hasen Richard Hawley - "Tonight"
awesome interview.
Happy to hear that my favorite skater is doing well. Keep it up man!
7:01 Dylan in the middle ❤
I was just watching that dude 😂🤣 😆
pure love
HELL YEAH
that was great, yo. Austyn's part, the story, everything.
I hope he's doing okay, he's been through some shit this year. Sending nothing but positive vibes his way.
Indeed...
Alfredo I would go through the same stuff if my best friend died
Cedric Borero I guess Dylan's death hit him hard
Got my SOTY vote.
❤❤❤
9:43 youtuber skate vloggers
SOTY
What's the song in the background
its just called tonight
Robby Rozite there's also, Low Flying Owls. Song is called Georgie shot Jeanie, I believe
thanks man
If we're talking about the same one, Richard Hawley, "tonight"
He so keel
i Love this man❤
I really like his trousers also, top qual vid.
fav always.
cant fakie flip it oh but i can definitely fakie tre flip it thats way easier
depends if you prefer kick flips or heelfips
Justin Salinas how bout fakie heel, is it as hard as a fakie flip?
fakie tres take less power than a fakie flip
Robert Wright makes sense cause for a fakie flip you have to get the whole length of the board over but a fakie tre sort of rolls over the highest point and you dont have to pop as early
This was cool
reminds me of Nick D. Dude workouts and skates.
The statement about the end of the video about people getting away with "doing half assed tricks" and being assholes is so true. Can't wait for his next part.
Sir SPeakz A Lot your username is on point
ronny bitter is it about Supreme
I love how it wasn't aimed at anyone but you just know.
Ik right? I loved that he said that and I have an idea who it's aimed at.
Jacob Gustafson shawn powers
Forever Dylan.
