Hanging Out with Akwasi Owusu

Aug 2023 by Route One

In an era when anyone anywhere can share their footage with the world, often immediately after filming the make, it's become a trope of skate journalism to call an up-and-coming skater "one of the most exciting new talents in the world today!" So what do we say when that really rings true? That's the quandary we find ourselves in discussing Akwesi Owusu!

Having recently exploded onto the world stage via his astonishing Sci-fi Fantasy part, hosted by Thrasher, before cementing his name in the Zeitgeist being confirmed as a key member of the new Asics team, Akwesi really does seem to be riding the crest of a wave of public excitement.

Which is probably why Jenkem, those bastions of entertaining skate journalism, have recently spent nine edited minutes hanging around with him in Manhattan's Lower East Side. They know an "exciting new talent" when they see one and, if you watch this, you will too!
