YouTube sensation Dan Corrigan just went pro for Powell Peralta Skateboards and the whole skate scene is backing it.
From skate legends Steve Caballero Bucky Lasek Salman Agah and other pros the respect is real.
If you’ve been around YouTube skate videos at all you already know who Dan is. The good homie has been grinding for years dropping clips filming homies putting in work behind the camera and still stacking his own footage.
He’s got that mix of goofiness and skill that makes you wanna grab your board and hit a spot right after watching him.
Powell-Peralta Skateboards saw what the people already knew.
Dan’s been putting in the work nonstop and this is just the respect catching up. He’s been holding it down for years making YouTube videos that show the real side of skating.
Everyone who knows Dan says the same thing.
He’s funny as hell always talking skate nerd stuff and breaking down tricks like he’s teaching a class.
But he’s also humble with it.
Never acting like he’s better than anyone just out there skating and vibing with the crew. That’s what makes this pro move hit even harder.
It’s not just about a name on a deck. It’s about someone who stayed true to himself and got rewarded for it.
Seeing Dan go pro is like a win for every skater who’s been grinding in the background making stuff happen with no big budget no fancy film crew.
It shows that if you keep skating for the love of it good things can really happen.
So salute to Dan as he earned it the real way through hard work and creativity on and off the internet.
