Extreme skateboarding meets fashion in, Adam Kimmel Presents: Claremont. Kimmel is a clothing designer whose designer fashions have appeared in such magazines as Vogue, GQ Style, Vanity Fair, Dazed & Confused, and numerous others.
In Adam Kimmel Presents: Claremont, Noah Sakamoto and Patrick Rizzo are wearing suits from Kimmel’s 2009 Spring Collection while they zoom down a road on the West Coast in Claremont. They rocket down the pavement at high speeds with hills and curves, and meet a few cars along the way.
All of the action was caught on a camcorder that was exchanged by Rizzo and Sakamoto throughout their gutsy skateboarding adventure. I’m not sure which of the guys exclaimed, “Oh my God!” when they had a close call with a vehicle, but I know who was freaking out while saying, “Holy Shitzu!”
