    I don't understand how people can hate on Nijah for his style being 'too perfect.' He has insane skill; that is all that matters. It is so weird how they find anything to hate on him.

    Frankie Hill did the 1st notable drop. It's pretty much well documented. I think it's in the Powell video "8". It was mind bending at the time and still is pretty gnarly as he appears to hover a little from the grab. Frankie Hill ftw.

    That Jaws block jump on the waterfront is in Louisville, KY at waterfront park. I drive by that spot 4-5 times a week. Went to go look at it a few years ago after seeing the Jaws clip, those block steps are massive. It looks much bigger in person once you see how high up it is.

    Still props to Jamie Thomas. He set the field we have now. An absolute legend that inspired me to do my biggest 13 stair land back when I was 17. 43 now, and I’d rather take bone collagen supplements than do that again 😂 still got that 13 Stair rail K grind landed too 🤙🏻 it’s only because he showed us that going massive was possible back then. Kids be shredding so much more these days, and it’s frocking awesome how the level has been lifted.

    • @rinking88
      @rinking88 10 місяців тому +4

      Absolutely. Besides the drop stuff, Jamie Thomas and Chad Muska are hugely influential on the particulars of modern street skating. They didn't invent street by any means, but they refined the style to primarily be handrails/hubbas, stairs, and gaps, and variations of grinds and flips on those. As opposed to the more "tech" style that a lot of street skaters did before them on smaller obstacles. Seriously if you watch old 90s skate videos (which I often do) and then watch modern parts from pros like Huston and Chris Joslin, the influence of Thomas and Muska on modern street style is undeniable

    Average stair step is 7-1/2". I fell off a telephone pole working, thankfully I was a skater for many years and landed on my feet, approx. 25-30', I landed good, but crushed both heals and fractured a vertebra. Anything over 10-15 foot you enter a new lever of risk.

    Frankie Hill had some big ones, but it’s been a while since I’ve seen them. 🤔😬

    Everytime I see footage of Jaws my knees start hurting. Dude is going to need some replacements later in life.

    What about Frankie Hill!!! He was the original Pioneer. He should've been mentioned.
