One last dose of @cs_rivera magic 🤩
Last week we sent Chris off with a farewell slab set. If you were wondering, yes he did climb the whole thing in less than 8 minutes. Yes, this was one take. Yes, he is magic.
Chris, we wish you the best in all your future endeavors. Keep setting bangers wherever life takes you 😎
