In New Balance’s latest film, Marquise Henry show us that that you can skate the big city and still pursue a passion for fishing in your own backyard. As a New Balance Numeric rider, juggling the demands of skateboarding in the concrete jungle and escaping to the wilderness for a much needed retreat is as easy as throwing on a pair of Trailbusters and climbing under an overpass just a short distance from the 31-year-old pro’s home in Moreno Valley, California. Marquise likens fishing to skateboarding in that they both require patience to achieve a goal — catching a fish is much like landing a new trick. Like his urban fishing pastime, the Trailbuster sneakers are designed to merge the city and the wilds by offering support, traction and a super durable construction in versatile colorways comprised of primarily neutral tones with bright accent highlights.

Watch the video above to see Marquise Henry speak on both his fishing hobby and his life in the world of professional riding. For more information drop by the New Balance website.
