RB is no Cards(but then again, who is?). Joslin is no boss. I get that bradley is a kook but to say he can't skate(or better than turner)?? his sb chronicles was a couple of years ago and it still holds weight...suicide 180 nose grind down the NY bball court rail and back 3/back 3 flip combo??

Absolutely not. Zion has a relaxed natural style while Zion is more of the athletic guy. Just because they are both black and hang out?

Wait, Zion hangs out with Zion?
Crazy, huh? Heard he likes hanging out with Zion too!

That one kid on DC, John Shanahan (?) and Kalis.

No fucking way. That dude was wearing skinny jeans just a few years ago. Just because he started cosplaying as another man DOES NOT mean he’s the new kalis.

KB is the new Antwuan Dixon if anything. Straight raw talent and skill level then piling out on booze. Like Twan was with Baker, KB puts out little footage but whatever is released is undeniable.

Ishod and Koston is the best comparison. Universally loved extroverts who can skate everything well and people around them overlook their dorkiness (Ishod is less corny than Koston though).

where have you been? koston is insufferable. ishod is extraverted but has never kooked himself that hard.

also kevin bradley and brandon turner? they don't even do the same tricks are act remotely similar. tha fuh?!

Raney Beres = John Cardiel

Focus please.
Side note. Cardiel liked a comment of mine on IG on some non skaters pic. It honestly made my life feel more complete.

Ishod has better style than Koston

my logic on reynolds/joslin is they are what i'd call stair crushers. few handrails but lots of flip tricks down huge gaps. also factoring in popularity/how well known they are.

ishod/koston are contest killers and extremely talented on any obstacle or terrain.

villani/barletta both have cool lazy style and dork tricks

zion/bastien young dudes who are naturally gifted and have athletic prowess, likely to shape the future of skating

foy/thomas are the handrail guys

Dressing like Kalis did 20+ years ago does NOT make those dudes anywhere near the "new Kalis". There isn't a new Kalis but if there was someone keeping true to what they're about, doing things For The Culture© and keeping things strictly plaza while staying at the top of the list of 3 flippers well that'd be Bobby Worrest.

I completely agree with you. You may be reading too much into the comparisons. Skateboarding being based on people's individuality, it is pretty derogatory for a certain skater to 'be' another skater in the first place, isn't it? One is just setting themselves up for failure if they actually try and go for such a goal (that's unattainable anyway), as personality is what people want to see; so if anything, you'll just look cute in your little costume.

There will never be another Kalis but I still find the phenomenon interesting and intriguing as fuck. I get honoring a time period you grew up in, or linked to a place you grew up in, and naturally incorporating little tributes in your skating style, that's sick and probably natural. But Bilyeu's dedication to that cause is something else; I for one don't care when he (or anyone really) nerds out on OG pants and shoes, but the trademark Kalis form on that switch 360 flip bump to can just reeks of both spiritual and physical sacrifice, I love it.
