Max Palmer, also known as “ Loose Trucks Max” has become infamous in the vast and ever-changing world of skateboarding, but has solidified himself as the community's outspoken favorite skater. Somehow kept relatively underground, Max Palmer’s most recent part, “Year of the Rat”, dropped in February of this year. With endless Lines and the Best front noses on seemingly impossible ledges and rails, Max’s videos are unique masterpieces.

With that being said, every time my buddies and I sit down to have a drink and watch his part or watch a 917 video, we can’t help but joke about Maxs Hairline, and always end up busting out laughing at his parts. It’s not good, and I suppose we are missing out on the magic max produces on a skateboard. So I’m trying to offer a solution: Max, GO bald. Or you could start wearing hats 24/7 like Nick Fero, also known as buggytalls on Instagram. There's ways around this, but like I said it could distract people from you skating.

Lebron in the finals. Thinking about Mark Suciu's “Verso” Part.

This situation reminds me of what happened to LeBron during the 2018/19 season. Everything basketball related had no media impact what so ever, Lebron could go for 50 points, but post game interviews will be about what hair products he uses. But Hey- I am just going on a stupid little tangent because I’m bored — and procrastinating on doing school work. Anyways, Go check out some Max Palmer Clips. You will not be let down.
