Real Shares Chima Ferguson’s Heavy Battle for Last Clip in ‚Roll Call‘

REAL recently dropped a new team montage dedicated to the one and only, James Hardy that hit super hard. The whole squad came through for James and it was simply just a solid representation of this always-epic squad.

If you saw it, you know that Chima Ferguson closed the curtains with a hefty switch heel down a four-block and REAL hopped on the Gram to share the battle behind the clip. Check it out:

Clips like this certainly take dedication, and even though Chima has hit us with plenty of mind-melting tricks through the years, it’s always interesting to get a behind-the-scenes look at the process. All the greatest wins in life tend to take the most out of us. And this was certainly an admirable battle.

And to do it for James was just the icing on the cake. RIP Hardy. We all miss you.
