Blind Introduces New Am Filipe Ortiz

I don’t really like to hype young up and coming stars because I think it gets to their heads and they might end up on “True Hollywood Stories”. Just look at Gary Coleman. Although he’s been sweet and adorable for the longest time, the guy went through bankruptcy and even had to take a job as a security guard. You’ve seen the video. Then you have the case of Haley Joel Osment. He’s the kid from “The Sixth Sense” who was able to see dead people. Unfortunately for him, the Academy Award nominated actor is a stoner and has been pulled over while under the influence. So it goes to show that child stars have a hard time adapting to adulthood.
Hopefully this won’t the case for new Blind Am Filipe Ortiz and the only reason why I’m hyping him is because Blind’s intro video for Filipe to the skateboard world is pretty sick. His short video clip will prove why he may be a tike to look forward to. Filipe will come from a long tradition of gnarly skaters that goes back some 20 years. Check it!
