Well deserved. Saw this and hadn't seen it posted. Sorry for the low tech solution to getting the ad from paper to computer.

Proper ripper!
-
stoked for him
-
Absolute beast! He's probably one of my favourite skaters at the moment.
-
Well deserved with two amazing parts in a year. Definitely getting his board if it's 8".
-
DUDE ALIEN BLOWS
-
Style for miles.
-
Kid is sick for sure. I've heard he has the personality of a wet sponge though, shits a shame.
-
Not sure how anyone can hate on this dude. Well deserved pro-status.
-
Props, Grant's an ATV ripper!
-

its because he doesn't give a fuck
-
I'm not surprised at all.
-
damn, just yesterday i was talking about how good this kid is, and how he should be pro. def well deserved. i had to rewind his frontboard on that fence at least 5 times when i saw it.
-
Grant is the cream of the crop of the new generation...looks like he can skate anything with style.
-

a WET sponge??!!!
I love wet sponges! Not a shame at all:

Well I expected something terrible but im happy you spared me the self mental therapy.
I really like alien and im glad Grant is on board.
-

O rly mate?
yup
-
J Brock has to be next in line...
-
fuck yeah grant.
-
Congrats to Grant Taylor. I thought Jake Johnson was next in line. Look at their AM squad (and that Marquise Henry guy's on it as well). Sick.
Pros
Anthony Van Engelen
Jason Dill
Mikey Taylor
Arto Saari
Omar Salazar
Dylan Rieder
Josh Kalis
Heath Kirchart
Rob Dyrdek
Steve Berra
Ams
Grant Taylor
Jake Johnson
Tyler Bledsoe

if i don't see a post about justin brock going pro in the very near future i'm going to send dlx a fuckin bomb in the mail
grant taylor's sick though, pretty well deserved.
-
don't get me wrong I think grant taylor is fucking SICK but i feel like they're tossing the pro status around a little too lightly.
he's kind of only been in the official am spotlight for not too long. I think they should have waited a little longer before turning him pro
-
Dude is fucking amazing, congrats to him. His dad must be proud, does that make them the second father/son former pro and pro?
-
Two amazing video parts in a year, he definately deserved to turn pro
-
I'm suprised he's pro already, but dude is definitely killin' it.
watching his Debacle part made me think about Tony T in In Bloom,
which is about the best praise I can think of...
-
I fully back this
-
Grant has that intangible quality about him when he skates, its so sick to watch. I look forward to everything this kid does for the next ten years.
-
dude has the most natural style on a board, he looks like he's been skating for all his life and hes in his 30s (thats a good thing)
and i agree with the other comments, if brock isnt next for real im gonna be bummed. they'll probably turn him pro after the video drops.
-
Nike pro team is getting pretty big.
-
fuck yeah grant.
-
his video parts make me want to skate. hopefully he keeps crushing and doesn't fuck off now that he has a board.
-
the thing is about every am/ pro skater who wears glasses while skating, you can tell they are rich as fuck because anyone who skates wearing glasses knows that if your pair is like just a few months old they dont fit on your head as well and they fall off all the time and its impossible to skate with them.
so these guys are either hooked up by thier parents or by sponsors, not really sure. nike makes glasses but that doesnt mean they hand them out for free ( im sure they would though) but tyler bledsoe isnt on nike or any sort of company that makes glasses.... so he must be some spoiled rich kid.
Rawb, this is my favourite fucking post you've ever made.
-
fuck yah. so amped on this
-
I kind wished he was on Anti Hero. Same with Alex Olson and even Omar.
-

why do you care what his personality is like? he's around so you can watch him skate. so do that.

Definitely well deserved. GT kills.
I'm sure Brock is next. Just wait till the Fall Real catalog drops.

what the hell? JUST BECAUSE HE PLAYS SKATEBOARD IN GLASSES DOESNT MEAN HE RICH KID, I PLAY BASKETBALL IN GLASSSES, I NO RICH KID

alex olson has nothing on grant taylor

What? All those dudes are on legit teams, and DNA makes good shapes and for the most part uses good wood. Plus Anti Hero is fine just as it is.

I wear my glasses when I skate and I'm sure as fuck not rich.

Congrants to him. Hopefully Jake Johnson's pro status isn't too far behind.

you must be retarted cuz dude is definitely on oakley with slutzka...

Awesome!
-
Grant's dad is Thomas Taylor, and where did this idea come from that if you skate tranny, you should be on Anti-Hero?
-
best thing ive heard all day, hes sick as fuck, my only complaint ive ever had about anything involving him is in debacle he did a sick tucknee in a pool but it was filmed all shitty, thats not even his fault though
-

oh damn, i can't believe i missed that. I was thinking maybe it was Jeff Taylor, or something. When Alex Olson first came on the scene, no one could talk about him without bringing up the fact that he's Steve Olson's spawn. It's mentioned in almost every article about him. I heard virtually nothing about Grant's lineage.
-
Are you implying that you are rich, rawbutson?

in the skateboarder issue with grant on the cover doing the fs air on the steep qp he has an interview where they also interview his dad.

well diserved
-
will will be supporting this kid and buying his board in the future. will be my first aws deck.
-
is mikey grants brother?
-
I always thought it would be weird with two Taylors on AWS.You could buy a grant deck and accidently buy mikey's deck.Riley Hawk is probably gonna be the 3rd father-son pro.But, Justin Brock better not go pro before Chima.

I'm guessing they'll be going by first names now.

chima is the only thing real has ever been wrong about, meaning that he's bland as fuck and shouldn't be sponsored by the most legit company in skateboarding.

i dont know what the fuck you're talking about, chima's sick as hell and had a straight RIDICULOUS part in the volcom australia video.
however, i would rather have justin turn pro and then chima though they're both gnarly as hell

-

no, but your mom couldn't hold my genitals in her mouth with just her tounge muscles alone.
for real though, I just can't get over his style, garbage attitude, shitty pants, lackluster trick selection. if the dude was white, you'd all be hating on him. this is just another example of what the slap message boards have become, a place where people jump on the bandwageon to feel secure about their posts.

EDIT: scanner's tweaking, i'll try to do it tomorrow. plus, dude below me made it unnecessary.

i wouldn't put fakie 360 shove, switch inward heel, frontside heel, and switch backside bigspin down sizeable gaps under "lackluster trick selection." garbage attitude? i've seen a good amount of footage of this guy on & off the board & he seems super chill & never a lameass. and did you just pull out the race card? ahahah what a fucking goon. go drop your huge balls in a blender, i'm sure they'll fit in there.
as for grant turning pro, 17 year old kid skates like a goddamn man. absolutely killing it. he definitely has the coverage, video parts, and interviews to go pro. but he's only 17 and just started showing everyone what's up. if things were up to me i would've waited until the end of the year, at least. he's only been in true AM limelight for hardly the better part of a year.

You sure have alot of nice shoes for someone whos not rich ::)

I work hard for the money. and I sell most of my shoes after after a while, so they pay for themselves.
