Bastien Marlin x Kingpin part

Bastien Marlin from France is a one man skateboard army. Whenever he’s not working his day job at his family’s car rental business or catching fish to sell to local restaurants, he’s usually found scoping spots, building or modifying others, logging footage and basically killing it on all levels.
