"best black skater"
fuck yeah
-
he's the first to claim it, but still ...
-
he might as well just say he's the best skater ever if he's gonna make such an obviously false claim. He would not be in my top 10 best black skaters.
-
Hands down, no fucking way.
-
Well that was awful.
-
come on, Tk got like 6 tricks, and the nigga can barly push... Tk it a cool person, but claiming to be the best black skater?? Ray barbee, Jovante Turner, Brandon turner, kareem and stevie, have way more steez and have never tried to something there not. they have stuck to skateboarding...Tk is not a rapper because eminem would make him look like the black Jereme rodgers if they battled.....

Antwuan is wayyyyyyyyyyyy fucking better...

Finally my dislike of Terry Kennedy is 100% validated.

I'm trying to think of a black skater that's almost as bad as tk but I can't. if terrel robinson said it then I might believe him.

So glad you included Pat Washington in that list of videos. I watched that part yesterday and decided the backside flip at 1:12 is the best I've ever seen.
-
so is this now the "black guys who are better than TK" thread?
Chris Pfanner, Lucien Clarke, Rodrigo TX, Jahmal Williams. Just a few off the top of my head.
-
That fucking Baker ad a few years ago wasn't enough? Fuck TK, cocky asshole.
-
He might not be the best one, but he's definitely the coolest one.
-
"nigga, we fly as the space shuttle"
-
He might not be the best one, but he's definitely the coolest one.
HA!! Fucking faggot.
-
Hands down, no fucking way.
Keenan, Stevie, Antwuan.
-
The only reason hes pro is because he fits an image that sells boards.
I mean look at him.

Why are you guys including Rodrigo Tx in the lists?He's brazilian, right?Or is this gonna bring up the whole arguement that Latino isn't a race
That baker ad did it awhile back and claimed it.I mean i give TK his props that he got good fast but maybe if he has a wider trick selection.He kills handrails though.

Brazillian is Portugese or however fuck it's spelt. Not black at all, man.

Brazil enslaved huge amounts of black people for a long time. There are a huge amount of black people in Brazil. Did you think all black people in the world lived in America and Africa or something?

i think y'all are taking this a little too seriously. i'm sure he knows he's not the best black skater, its just a line from a rap song on his mixtape so he's talking a little shit. not like he's gonna actually say "i'm like the 30th best black skater, give or take"...not sure how you'd even make that rhyme...

TK is good, but generally speaking to say that you are the best anything is folly. that being said i would give my vote to Sheffey, Kareem, and Stevie. If Keenan were still alive i would say that he would be not only the best black skater alive, but would probably have achieved legendary status by now.

I'm also kind've partial to him because he may be the only person who sweats more than me.

i'm suprised some idiot didnt say omar salazar or daryl angel

"faggot niggas" are going to be pretty bummed that he called them out in this song.
my vote for "black skater I'd rather see skate" is Brian Edwards

this is so dumb.. the ad was a fucking a joke just like all the other baker ads. reynolds put the ad out... he owns baker and he lays out every ad they put out so im sure terry didnt really have much to do with it. Im sure terry doesnt think he is the best black skater.

three pages already? It's a claim, not a fact
-
this is what todays rap music is all about. making stupid claims without even thinking about it .
i bet terry will eventually "retire" from skating because of how low he'll be in skateboarding, especially if he keeps saying stupid shit like that hes the best black skater. its gonna get to the point where his marketability is so low that hell pull a JR
-
He might just edge out T Bone and Gershon, but that's debatable.

...theres black skaters??

He might just edge out T Bone and Gershon, but that's debatable.
Do you even know who Gershon is? Its not debatable at all. Gershon is far better.

Haha! Brian Edwards...what happened to that guy? Last time I saw him was on the 411 issue where Muska was the host and they had that Cadillac where they drove around and skated it....and I think Brian Edwards had some tricks on there.
-
While I don't care to comment on who the best is and don't care about someone claiming anything I just want to bring up Alfonso Rawls. he was good. That is all.

I can't take TK seriously if he's too much of a pussy to ghost ride the whip.

I didn't really understand the swerving of his leased car on one way streets. What was he swerving his leased car around? There wasn't any traffic.
He lost temporary control while re-adjusting his dimonique necklaces. Obviously.

I think anyone making claims about how good they are has lost the point of what skateboarding is about. And race never mattered in skating back in the day, why should it start mattering now? TK is accidentally very funnty!

If you said sponsored skater I'd have to dig deeper, but if it is coverage, there is that guy in that one big brother video who rocks the jumpsuit and is on the cover. He probably wasn't as good as Terry.

Terry Kennedy can not do waist high switch tailslides. I don't even know if I have ever seen him do a knee high switch tailslide, or anything switch besides a fronstide boardslide.

he could be the best skater, he could be the worst skater but the dude still sucks as a rapper and as a human being.
he is the epitome of everything i hate in people all rolled up in one.

do any of you guys like being around someone who thinks they're the shit all the time?

There is a difference between liking to watch a guy act the way he does and liking to hang out with a guy like that. The dude is funny, I'll give him that. He's just not the best skateboarder no matter how you categorize him
-
TK is not only the best black skater he is also the best skater out of any race
he skates fakie all the time cause everyone else skates nollie
skates regular all the time cause everyone else skates switch
he is killing it, heelflip down the same stairs furby switch heeled
but Tks was way better thats why hes better he doesnt have to conform to your gay trick standards
hes got a pro shoe on supra thats amazing
he did fs tailslide kickflip to fakie and had a mad pissed look on his face
also fs shove to crook no one else has ever done that
remember that bs blunt in baker 2g he did? that shit was dope
no one said benny fairfax in this whole thread either. or lavar!

for sure sarcasm. me and my friends used to laugh at that baker 2g video part so bad like 'why is this joker even in this video'. the best part of it is when he does a bs blunt in a line, lands in the middle of the ledge completely crooked, stops dead, and falls off and almost falls pushing away from it.

Is there any footage of SAD online? It's murder trying to search for him because of his name (what's the story behind that anyway?). I can just about remember my friend having a video in which he had a part. We thought it was weird because he skated with a rag or a hankie in his hand or something.

411 best of 4, curtis mayfield "Move on up". start of his part he walks into his apt slaps a black womans ass and says "No time for slippin"
he 5050s this rail at one part and if you look closely he has blonde eyebrows and a blonde mustache.
lots of great LA schoolyard footy. 5050 the high ledge at venice beach. skates that slanted manual pad way different than anyone else too. also some dope shit on picnic tables.
that issue is great. andrew reynolds profile no music, sad rookies, chad fernandez rookies, brad hayes rookies, cairo foster wheels w/ xzibit, adrian lopez wheels w/misfits, greco wheels w/the faction doin california dreamin, marc johnson profiles, jerry hsu wheels (when hes 15), rodney + daewon profile (epmd!), tons of good shit on that one.

That's what I was thinking. He doesn't directly say "I'm the best black skater". He says "best black skater, yeah nigga prove that" as if to say there needs to be some real proof that he's the best black skater. I read it as a response to this ad:
(http://www.bakerskateboards.com/images/ad_archive/2006/terry_baker.jpg)
He might be adressing Reynolds in this rap, like 'you labeled me the best black skater, so prove it to me'. Just by his expression, I can tell he's not serious. TK is neither dumb nor particularly competitive: He knows that you can't definitively prove who the best in skateboarding; he probably knows that Antuwan is better than him, he's just putting up a front for the sake of a rap song.
That's how I saw it at least. Most people interpreted it as a absolute claim, and thus this thread turned into listing all the black skaters better than Terry Kennedy. Since the vast majority of black pro skaters are better than TK, a simpler task would be to list those that are worst.
-
that sequence was dope, no one else is doing that trick in the industry on a handrail you have to admit, its not like other people COULDNT do it though. i think people just automatically assume since its been done nollie it doesnt need to be doen fakie cause its easier. i guess thats a reasonable assumption.

i don't know man, i definitely would not ride up to a rail fakie, imo doin a fakie tailslide on a rail that tall is pretty good... but tk does have a limited trick selection for sure...

ur dumber than i thought, if u knew anything about anything you would know there was an ad on battle of the berrics with benny fairfax doing fs shove to nosegrind, 180 out, and then i wrote his name 2 seconds later.
At least I'm not being taken as a joke without knowing it.
is that supposed to be hurtful?

just pointing out that you really can't call anybody "dumb" here. Was it sarcasm? I was the one pointing out to you the fact that you see people doing that trick constantly and have for years. Then you called me dumb and backed up what I was saying.
But honestly, whether its a joke or its serious, your account is REALLY annoying and stupid. Either its a shitty job of being funny or a shitty job of existing. It was cute for a minute. It isn't anymore. Just annoying.

Aren't you unemployed and living with your parents? What does me being a teacher have anything to do with anything? Is it an insult? Damn, dude who has nothing going in his life pointed out the fact that I have a career. fuck. You got me!

that sequence was dope, no one else is doing that trick in the industry on a handrail you have to admit, its not like other people COULDNT do it though. i think people just automatically assume since its been done nollie it doesnt need to be doen fakie cause its easier. i guess thats a reasonable assumption.
i don't know man, i definitely would not ride up to a rail fakie, imo doin a fakie tailslide on a rail that tall is pretty good...
terry couldn't do a nollie noseslide on a rail like that and i bet the guys that could can't do fakie tailslides
overall i'd say fakie tail is harder (and definitely more interesting) than nollie nose but it all depends on the person

People talk shit on his fakie to grind/slides like that's all he can do.He did a switch fs nosegrind in the baker tour video and he did a heelflip bs boardslide and he did a switch crook in baker has a deathwish.These days he has a wider trick selection then his baker 3 days.

For the most part, I hate them. Some people can do them well though. I like Lindsey Robertson's heelflips because he's got that ninja thing going, but usually heelflips are fugly.

Is there any footage of SAD online? It's murder trying to search for him because of his name (what's the story behind that anyway?). I can just about remember my friend having a video in which he had a part. We thought it was weird because he skated with a rag or a hankie in his hand or something.
411 best of 4, curtis mayfield "Move on up". start of his part he walks into his apt slaps a black womans ass and says "No time for slippin"
he 5050s this rail at one part and if you look closely he has blonde eyebrows and a blonde mustache.
lots of great LA schoolyard footy. 5050 the high ledge at venice beach. skates that slanted manual pad way different than anyone else too. also some dope shit on picnic tables.
that issue is great. andrew reynolds profile no music, sad rookies, chad fernandez rookies, brad hayes rookies, cairo foster wheels w/ xzibit, adrian lopez wheels w/misfits, greco wheels w/the faction doin california dreamin, marc johnson profiles, jerry hsu wheels (when hes 15), rodney + daewon profile (epmd!), tons of good shit on that one.
i cant find footage of SAD on youtube either.
i would also like to know whats the story behind that nickname.

thanks kinky john!
i still cant understand why SAD hadnt got some bigger sponsors back then, he had a good style and nice tricks for the era. i only remember one of his sponsor, that was Simple Shoes.
didn't he ride for Arcade skateboards too? Or am I mistaken?
-
sorry that title is taken by the late, great keenan milton
-
I still don't get the whole race-classification thing. Doesn't "best black skater" just limit you? Why not try to be one of the best period?
-
he couldnt say that with a straight face.
-
To determine the best black skater, all you have to do is examine his big money and his big cars, then ask yourself 'who do I think he is?'. You must then proceed to take a look at his chain, car, fame, and broads (respectively) and decide whether he is stunting on you all or not.

this thread is hurtful and offensive

To all the people looking for SAD clips:
Gumbo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfnCMMfkVO4&feature=fvsr (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfnCMMfkVO4&feature=fvsr)
SAD TV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOfH1t7E6Cs&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOfH1t7E6Cs&feature=related)
LA County (@1:24) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcsEtHkMOYw&feature=related (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcsEtHkMOYw&feature=related)
I'm pretty sure he had more clips In LA county but I couldn't find the rest of the video on Youtube. SAD also had footage in one of the later Logic videos but I couldn't find that either.

Here's a few I think of. TK has skill nowhere near these guys.
SAD
Keenan
Ray Barbee
Jovantae
Bastien
Antwuan
Kareem
Jeron
Lavar
Pat Washington
Windsor
Devine
Stevie
Kevin Taylor
"That kid on Alien"
Tabias Walker (He was so sick on Invisible)
Black dudes you didn't list that I'd rather see skate than TK:
Clyde Singleton
Lamare Hemmings
Aquil Braithwait
Everen Stallion (great name by the way)
Kevin Romar
Kevin Booker
Karl Watson
Theotis Beasley
Darren Harper
That's just a few off the top of the dome, there's many many more that are far more talented and/or easier on the eyes than fucking TK.
don't forget chris pfanner
-
"who i'd rather see than tk" is completely different than "who is better than tk", and a lot of you guys are definitely confusing the two. whether you like him or not, tk does some really sick shit. fakie 5-0 on wilshire 10, gap to nosegrind on that spot that two stair flat something spot, that fakie tailslide someone posted, and the fakie lips he did for his ender and baker 3 and his second to last trick in his deathwish part were both really good. dude has gotten a fuck load better since his baker 3 part. think about it: no one else's deathwish part topped their baker 3 part except terry's, so that shows some real progression, especially since it was all throwaway anyway. he's far from the best black skater, but certainly not the worst. how you guys can compare majorly ledge skaters to someone like tk who skates mainly handrails is stupid. apples & oranges. as already stated, i doubt he believes he's the best black skater either.
-
the one thing i can say about TK is he can actually do pretty much every regular and fakie trick really solid down stuff, with good style. a lot of pros can only do heelflips good switch, he can do them both ways really good, for example.
