As a companion piece to the Brazil episode, Jeff Grosso and the Loveletters crew produced this short piece on Og De Souza. Og was a staple of 411s throughout the video magazine’s existence, and showed what was possible on a skateboard without having the use of one’s legs. He could be considered a pioneer in adaptive sports, which has seen a lot of growth within its skate-related segment over the last five or so years. Learn more about this pioneer’s contribution above.
