ToreyPudwill took in a Miami skate session he’d been dreaming about when Lil Wayne invited him to his private skate park ahead of a Miami Beach concert.

Red Bull set up the time in the Weezy indoor park, putting the two Grizzly stars on boards at the same time and letting them hit ramps, jumps, walls and rails.

The three-plus-minute video contains plenty of riding, showing off what both Pudwill and Lil Wayne can do on the board.

At the start of the video Pudwill says he's “so stoked to be able to skate with him and have the chance to interact with him.” After the pair exchange a hug, they get right down to it. “I already know Torey is going to come through here and kill it,” says Wayne.

Throughout a mixture of riding, tricks and even a wipeout or two, we get a look at the skills of the two riders and how they interact.

“We had fun, we had a crazy session,” Wayne says. “Shot how we wanted to shoot.”
