The first time I saw Pali was in the cover of a Spanish mag going down a monster rail when the average by then was maybe…5 stairs? But Pali isn’t one of those crazy freaks who only have eyes for rails, he’s able to skate pretty much everything, whether it’s a techfoot flip to grind, or to keep going 8 weeks solid to the biggest kinked rail I’ve ever seen around here (Gavà’s kinky, that is). Well… actually I think he must be a crazy freak in a way.  But then, he’s a type of guy unable to get mad. I’ve seen him seriously trying to, but he just cannot do it. He can’t help to be happy all the time with that huge afro growing above his ideas and his 8+ boards. One of the big guys in many ways.
