Watch: Monster Army Welcomes Vert Powerhouse JD Sanchez to the Team
Vert's not dead! Of course it isn't. Hell, you could say it's as alive as ever, and young guns like JD Sanchez are keeping that fire burning bright. The dude has style and his approach is super refreshing. You can tell he's done his homework. He clearly respects the past but has his foot pressed on the gas all the same.
He just secured a spot on the Monster Army, and at just 16 years old, I think it's safe to say the future is bright as hell. All this stuff was filmed in a short 48 hours, too. Just FYI. Take a look:
"JD Sanchez; A name you will be hearing much more of for years to come," Monster mentioned on YouTube. "At just 16 years of age, JD is already a consistent podium contender at any given major vert or park event. He has the composure and consistency of a vet, but he is just getting started. Check this footage we were able to get with him while up in NorCal for two days."

I'll never understand how some of these kids get so good, so fast, but it's pretty rad to see. JD was clearly born to skate and we can't wait to see what he brings to the table in the years to come.
What else can I even say? If you were unfamiliar with this hungry up-and-comer's skating before this, I'd say it's one hell of an introduction. Keep charging, JD! We see you.
