It's interesting that his new Venture truck specifically has 8 holes to bring the wheelbase in, but in the shot of his board in the first few seconds you see a normal 4 hole Venture haha. I wish we could see more current Koston footage sorta like we have the modern Reynolds. Still have the skills, good style, good trick selection.

These were sick, he has occasional gnar tricks still , wallride grind thing from that one supreme video and a switch wallie back 5050 on this hubba from plunketts stories come to mind. He’s been at parks with his kids a bunch over the years , why skate when you can collect Nike checks , hang out with your kids and play golf and go on homie trips as Nikes elder statesman.

Good for him for milking it I guess but he really is the epitome of “you couldn’t put out 1m:06s per year?”

(Because he totally fucking could have)

Koston will never be a Milker.   He’s arguably the greatest of all time and killed it for 20 plus years.

Think he ate it? That shit was cut kind of funny. It would not surprise me if a koston slam would get cut. You know cuz it’s a product vid. Koston it tatters might not be the move.
Yo he really is a fucking king. Seeing that makes me feel like I’ve chosen the right way to go out in this world. With speed and style.

Guy and Gall are like the second tier kings. My Carroll those guys too

This is never going to change. Not on the professional level. The modern era is about product and imagination. Not skills

I’d say it’s impossible for any sponsored skater in the modern era to be able to match the goats in their 40s now.

It’s the same reason there’s never going to be a second Tony hawk. You can only jump the Great Wall once.

I just feel like PJ beat everyone for skill and style. He’s still doing it. If guy and gall are the beginning of art genius then pj is the end.

What’s happened since then? Ritchie Jackson. He ain’t worthy.

Pj Ladd is the Colin McKay of street. He’s #1 but no one wants to give it to them
