Check out this Sam Chamberlain video from the streets of England.

Here’s a rad one Ride UK dropped featuring Sam Chamberlain going to work on spots in Southern England. Sam has a somewhat jibby style with an eye for wallrides, transitions, rails and ledges. Sam has a bit of a Devon Smillie influenced style, which isn’t a bad thing. Take a peek!
