This new episode of Jenk TV is a special one, celebrating a significant milestone for our friend Fred Gall. After a year of sobriety, Fred is not only skating harder than ever, but he’s also built a backyard compound and is holding down a steady job. However, his sleep situation hadn’t caught up, with a mattress seemingly straight out of his Photosynthesis era. To honor his dedication and ensure he keeps shredding, Brian Anderson, Raspa, and the crew surprised Fred with a brand-new, luxurious Tempur-pedic mattress.
Celebrating Fred’s Milestone with Comfort
It’s only fitting that we provide Fred, someone who has contributed so much to skateboarding, with the gift of quality sleep. The new mattress will be especially beneficial after he’s been enjoying the green produce from his backyard compound. This surprise is more than just a comfortable bed; it’s a symbol of support for his sobriety and a thank you for his ongoing influence in skateboarding.

The idea behind this episode was simple: to acknowledge Fred’s commitment to his well-being and skateboarding with a practical and thoughtful gift. A good night’s sleep is fundamental, and for someone as active as Fred, it’s essential for maintaining his energy and focus on the board. This gesture demonstrates the close-knit community within skateboarding, where support for friends goes beyond the skatepark.
The Gift of a Good Night’s Sleep
The team behind Jenk TV, including Alex Raspa, Ian Michna, and Rob Fraebel, worked together to make this surprise happen. Their efforts highlight the importance of celebrating personal achievements, especially within a community as close as the skateboarding world. It’s these kinds of gestures that build a strong and supportive environment. The team’s care for Fred is palpable, underscoring how much his well-being matters to those around him.

By giving Fred a new Tempur-pedic mattress, they’re not just giving him a bed; they’re investing in his future success and happiness, both on and off the board.
Conclusion
The surprise for Fred is a reflection of his impact on the skateboarding world. It’s a reminder that while the tricks and lines are what we see, behind every skater is a person deserving of support and recognition. So, here’s to Fred, his year of sobriety, and all the good nights of sleep to come.
