where does all this Kader hope come from? Ppl saying hes like the next Nyjah / child prodigy but I am yet to see any tricks out of his camp that are anything more than warm up tricks from the 90s era. I admit I dont stalk his insta, so please take this opportunity to enlighten me as to why yall think he is the saviour of Baker. Does he do jaw dropping nbd rail tech like Nugget? Does he bust down huge gaps like Joslin? Does he have some insane manual tech like Daewon? Does he have a crazy switch game like PRod? Does he have anything that sets him apart? I just dont get it. Are you all just regurgitating the Boss's early comments / hype about how good he is without evidence or has he been destroying in clips I missed (apart from that dime bombdrop)
I like how your whole argument of “what sets him apart” just boils down to “does he have characteristics of these other skaters”
There was no argument, just raising the question, and I wasnt saying he was shit if he didn't have those characteristics, just providing examples of how most the top skaters stand apart for doing SOMETHING better than the others.
Sure the kid can land basic tricks well, hes a fucking pro for Baker, but the hype surrounding him is unjustified so far. Wont matter tho, dude will frontside flip a 12 stair and boardslide a kinked rail and everyone will say they are the best ever versions of that trick, how hes good for his age (even though hes nearly a grown ass man) and how nice a guy he is, etc. Reynolds deserves a rise for pulling off the next TK hypemachine. Hes a master.
