"In Argentina, the Martinez family name is synonymous with skateboarding. Milton Martinez was literally born into skating, raised as he was within his skateboarding parents’ skateshop in Mar del Plata.
His father Tatu is practically Argentinian skateboarding royalty from the formative generation, and while Milton quickly followed in his footsteps to become the biggest skateboarding name in his home country, the beachside surf town he called home is unfortunately no place to cultivate a career as a professional skater.
Without any English, Milton caught a plane to the US and never looked back. He hustled his way through the streets to make enough money to eventually move his family to California, where they reside to this day.
Along the way, he became SOTY 2019 in a career blow-up that saw him put down more heavy markers in the US than anyone else of his era. Skate Tales takes Milton Martinez back to where it all began, as he and Madars re-trace what has been one of the most star-chasing skateboarding stories of them all!"
"Thank you very much, Milton for having us! You are a boss!! And thank you, Red Bull skate for sponsoring this!!!! What good times!!!"
"GOAT, for me, nobody get even close to his level of being gnarly. It is not only about the level, it is also about his vibe. He seems to be natural born skate killer."
"Such a great story. The whole family is into skateboarding thats so cool. And Madarse as humble and chilled as always. Please never let this series stop"
"Dude has done some of the gnarliest tricks at impossibly huge spots. It's literally insane and makes me so glad I skate to gain some perspective and appreciation for how amazing Milton is!"
"What a crazy good video! I'm from Mar del Plata, and thanks to punk and hitting the streets I have beautiful memories of seeing Milton skate, being in the Alem bowl and having the maestro fall, and seeing him fly 7 meters in the sky and start ranching like one more. In the miter the same thing, it is something very great that it is something so everyday, so simple, and that that makes it how great it is. To be number one in something, you have to make that something your life and Milton proves it, big hug to you and your family, best wishes always crazy!!"
"The gnarliest dude on a board, epic style while going at light speed! And then also so much love for his family, greatness that is! Madars obviously also one of the greats of this time, with his own unique style in skating and hosting this show. Such a great episode!! Thank you all! Skateboarding was, is and will be the greatest activity ever."
"Milton saying sometimes skateboarding gets scary was the most real shit!! So he is human after all. Great video. Keep em coming!"
