All of these dudes have passed their prime, some farther than others. They're all known as skaters with excellent style too. What part would you most want to see? Keep in mind, this is their present self, not them in their prime. Post your reasoning below. Ready!? Fight!

No Fred Gall?
You fucked up.

Yea yea, I hear ya. Lol just changed it.

Reynolds is still putting out parts.
-
I'd actually rather see a Gravette part.

Eh, kinda sorta?

His Bronson one was ok. But I'd rather see any of these dudes over more gravette. Though I think he has falling into the passed his prime category, due to his injuries.
-
My vote was for Antwuan. I feel like we got blue balled so hard with his incredible baker 3 part, and then he just faded away after that. He's also the youngest out of these guys, so I feel like he's probably got the most juice left in him. His IG clips lately have been super stylish too, you can tell he's still got it. Made me sad to see his career get put on hold because of his drinking and trouble with the law. I would fucking kill for a full part from him with some Biggie, Jeezy, or maybe some like old school west coast shit, Snoop or Dre maybe idk.

Came here thinking the options were, marble softball and Fred Fall.
-
I’d really really really want a Kareem part. He could do it. I did vote for Freddy because Freddy is my favorite. Also I think we will get a Freddy part fairly soon. He’s skating a lot.

Kinda sorta? He put out two parts a couple months ago! He's not frontside flipping 18s anymore but based on your prompt he's producing more than all the others on the list combined.

No TK?

Grant Taylor

Kareem. I'm not sure if he's on IG, but you don't see a ton of footage from him. After that tre flip at the Berrics, it seems like he's still got it.

I didn't say anything about who was producing the most currently in my prompt. His stuff hasn't gotten me hyped lately, I guess that's why my vote was for Antwuan. I still love and respect Reynolds, and I honestly enjoyed his manny/tech shit the most in baker 4. I guess the "kinda sorta" phrase just comes from me not being that stoked on his current stuff. At the end of the day I would pick Antwuan for a part. This is why I posted the poll. Fun discussion, interesting to see what other people think.

He's still at the top of his game IMO
-

Agreed, Kareem is a very close second pick for me.

That thing he put out recently wasn't that great IMO. Even his signature fs360 in that was less than good. Though he could get filmed just pushing around the city, and that shit would get eaten up.
-
Kareem because it would be so great to see him skating again after that recent Tre flip at the Berrics.
We know what a Penny part would look like in 2020.
Twuan would do his 2 classic ledge noseslide variations.
Fred Gall has been posting on Instagram so we can get a little fix there.
Andrew we have seen plenty of recent footage from.
-

Overlooked the "past their prime" part. I just want a full focused part from him.

Agree with the Penny point as sad as that makes me :(

Good thing he's still a working professional skateboarder, right?

not voting until Softball and Marble are on the ballot
>:(
-
I wanna see a antwuan part with a Dj Quik track
-
No Darin "Cookiehead" Jenkins? No vote!

Daewon
Darwin

I chose Kareem for similar reasons to the above. His recent berries treflip, AR already productive enough, Twuan posting noseslide variations a lot already, Penny had recent (ish) footage in a Greco film, and Fred Gall has a part on the way. I want Kareem to drop a part, create some hype, then have enough young kids hyped on him that he can relaunch Axion at least for one or two seasons to milk the retro chubby shoe trend, then I can buy all the ones i wanted when I was 14 but too poor.
-
Antwuan. Penny doesn’t look great on a board anymore. Reynolds the goat and still does but he is always skating and putting out clips, I don’t feel deprived of Reynolds footy.
Antwuan legendary style is still there, just needs to film it.
-
Antwuan Dixon, best float in the game period.
If it 12 or 2 stairs me still no care....
-

Damn, I was actually hoping you would come in here with some heat. You have a knack for saying shit that cracks me up while upsetting others.
-
i think we will see some sort of gall part in the near future(next two years), at least i hope so.
i bet kareem still has it, everytime footage of him shows up it's still super good.

Uncle Freddie...
If he puts together a part with tricks at half of his spot-checks it'll be insane
-
i want Penny to come back in a big way. maybe put on some decent fitting clothes and take his flatground to the stairs. his feet still know what to do.
-
Antwuan. He was the best.
-
Thought this thread was gonna be about peeing out a golfball or pooping out a softball. Disappointed to find out out it's just about boring skateboarding.
-
Well, judging by this going to the second page I'd say people are done voting. Antwuan got the most votes. Thanks for entertaining my pointless questions y'all. :)
-
Why is Reynolds on the list? We literally just got Baker 4. My vote goes to Kareem.
-
Most of the old-guy footy I've seen has been pretty bad, other than the Greco stuff. The worst part is that some of these pro skaters seem to think fans want them to only do the hardest tricks, but I've said it before, I'd literally pay money for some DVD-quality footage of the right pros simply skating flatground in a parking lot somewhere.
