What was once an outcasted subculture, Skateboarding is now a current focal point in the biggest industries around the world. Authenticity is vital within a culture, and the artistry of skateboarding has driven trends in fashion, filmmaking, youth culture and more. One skater who's impact has checked all of these boxes is Sean Pablo.

Since blowing up on the scene in Supreme's classic Cherry skate film in 2014, Pablo became a tour de force in the industry. He's joined the Converse skate, created his own clothing line PARADIS3, and partied with Bill Murray. Did we mention that he's only 20 years old.

For the release of Converse’s first-ever feature skate film, Purple, Ball Boyz Kyle Hodge and Ian Servantes spent some time with Pablo discuss his favorite New York skate spots, favorite Converse's to skate in, and his design process for the PARADIS3 brand. Watch above!
