Nyjah probably has the smoothest, most "yeah, I'm in control of this" style of any skater. Like honesty, he skates as if he's been doing it before he could walk. It's really amazing to see. He may not have the largest inventory of tricks of any skater, but he does have possibly the greatest trick consistency of anyone. By that I mean every single one of his tricks almost always looks like he just pressed a button to do it. Some people might not dig that, but it's why he's the highest paid in the game.

I wonder how many times he had to crash and burn before he perfected his craft? Everyone sees the final results, but it's the journey! The time put in, the blood sweat and tears that no one sees the work he put it to become successful. Hard work definitely pays off. We all are watching it! Salute to you skateboard guy....👏🤝

I skated in the 80's and this dudes aggressive execution brings back that feeling that I almost never get watching modern skaters.
I remember hearing about him when I was only 10 years old, im 21 now and he's still popular as ever. Glad to see
Whoever recorded that done one hell of a job
Him & Chris cole smoothest/steeziest skaters I ever witnessed
Whatever bearings he using for that speed is so chill for street. Not too speedy, just chill enough to pop tricks here n there
This dude had the whole skating community hating because he was just so much better than everyone
Nah, we hate him because of his character and personality. It has little to do with his skill.
@@ShouldHaveBeen I guess everyone these days has to play stupid and dumb down everything they do to be liked huh
@@MrLeeStories Or, just be a decent human being. I feel like that's the bare minimum. It's really too bad Nyjah can't even do that. It's actually kind of sad. There are some great skaters out there that are good people too, and therein lies the contrast.
@@ShouldHaveBeen I honestly think he’s a genuine dude. He’s just a competitor. He knows he’s good, and so do a lot of his fans and other skaters. I’m not even a fan boy of his, and I respect his competitive spirit, and wanting to be the best.
@@MrLeeStories It would behoove you to do your research. The only thing genuine about him is that he's an abhorrent person.
I'll never forget playing as him in Tony Hawk's project 8
Me Either Bro 💯
I’ve never seen someone do tricks more effortlessly than this man right here. Literally no effort.
And it’s switch in the end of this line, he is not regular but goofy ;-)
Nyjah & Ryan are the2 skaters who I relate to the most because we all started hella young and still going at crazy bumps & hard bruises and all
❤ nice line up Nyjah ❤
I wonder how many times he had to crash and burn before he perfected his craft? Everyone sees the final results, but it's the journey! The time put in, the blood sweat and tears that no one sees the work he put it to become successful. Hard work definitely pays off. We all are watching it! Salute to you skateboard guy....👏🤝
That spot looks like something I myself would enjoy quite thoroughly
If someone were to say the location I would not be mad at all
@@jonathansmith4354 I’m sure it’s either CA or TX which I live across the country on the east so…. :(
If you’ve never skated before, you need to know that skating in shorts is an entirely different level of confidence. It takes years and years of pounding it out to get confident enough to feel like your shins are safe enough to wear shorts! Props to Nyjah! He’s a legend for sure! 🙌
Everything he does is perfect
When I was in college, I would skate with this guy regularly. No matter how good I got. He was always 1000 steps ahead. It’s wild.
That’s basically his warm ups
