Tyshawn and Nakel’s board brand is called King skateboards

[jakeumms]

I can see this year being his 3rd SOTY run.

This clip

New Supreme part?

New King part?

New anything part?

New Adidas shoe dropping this year?

New shoe design is floating around

[fakie nollie]

Fakie Ollie would forever shut that spot down

[SubCurban Commando]

Fakie Ollie would forever shut that spot down

I'd say given the angle, him being regular and his skillset that a switch ollie wouldn't be out of the question, maybe a switch fs 180 or if we're really pushing it, a switch flip.

[SATIVA HYBRID]

i know it's early but #3 seems pretty imminent at this point. love or hate him his skill is undeniable and there's nobody doing it like him

[Lou Strux]

Wait… you fellas reckon he’s gonna up-and-over that cock blocker of a safety railing & THEN clear that gap?!?
Wild take.
I love it.

Fuckin aye. That'd be fucked. Good for goofs. Lol. Imagine that shit. Be like the shifty from hell.

Like half a half cab rewind to muster that type of huck

[Big Skatefase]

can't wait until he has to re-do it because gifted hater says he didn't hit it at the right angle.

[Ninj2]

Is you fools thinking this a spot? Nah homie. This some shit you don’t skate and never will. It’s not no spot.

[Cuban_Lynx]

I don’t know shit about this, but could he clear a segment of that railing with a cordless angle grinder or something like that? A guy can dream.

[Uncle Flea]

you're both fried if you think supreme would collaborate with those over Snap-On

[mclovin1336]

the old flex: save it for your part

the new flex: straight to the gram

yes, I think this is more "strategic" or planned as some people here make it up to be. it creates instant hype, reaches more people (arguably also outside of skateboarding), nonetheless hella hard and I hope he's working on part(s)

he is racking up literally millions of views on each clip posted to IG. this one's got 1.8 million already.

[Gleefull508]

If the tre flip is going straight to the gram he definitely switch flipped it for next part

[lurker_and_poster]

Oh Fuck! This would seal the 3rd SOTY

treflip the subway gap was nice.
But cmon dont play with out feelings concerning the watertowers... if you pose pictures via IG after 27 years.
We want to see results in a reasonable timing.

He’s gonna switch flip or nollie flip it

Gram clips get more views than full parts and reach broader audiences. It's an advertiser's wet dream. My wife works in social media marketing and they can pay an influencer $5K for a story and get 2M impressions and ~200K shares OR they can pay that much for a single day ad on a website and get 3M impressions. The shares and engagement are where it's at. Gets and keeps people talking. Whether we like it or not it's more efficient and full lengths are really just for a narrower audience of skaters.

My Dad sent me a picture of TJ ollie'ing over the Ferrari, but he definitely didn't watch Cherry.

Maybe people on Slap don't love King graphics, but I bet once they get more distribution they will become a brand that a lot of kids buy when they're getting one of their first setups just because they've seen a lot of TJ's more "viral" clips.

Usually takes a trip to a doctor's office, or at least a lot of soda in a small amount of time.

I can’t look  be careful, Tyshawn!

The problem with using this as a metric is: your dad probably ain't going to buy a King deck.

Anyone trying to sell things on the internet will tell you "views" are meaningless. Traffic isn't a river of gold any more - it's a flood.

Sounds kinda tight: where do I sign up to get wet?

This is true but a lot of the people viewing it will buy supreme clothes and I can definitely see King lining up to follow the FA trajectory, TJ's persona of more of a traditional athlete crossed with all the modelling stuff rather than just a skater and the athletically impressive nature of the stuff he does gives him possibly the most widespread appeal of any skater out right now. Softgoods will be where they make their money for sure but an awful lot of hype beasts buy wall hangers and King graphics are right up their alley, if they do some on trend artist collars on boards they'll sell out easy.
