This might be unpopular opinion but the Pabich Brothers. Clearly they rip but they both skate like clones of people who have already tread those long beaten paths.

Mikey Taylor was The King Of Generic. Now he's the King Of Gentrification. The Voice Of A Generation. I hope I'm not being too generous, here.

One that comes to mind is Matt Berger

Agree. It must be a hard pill to swallow to dedicate your life to something, definitely be aware you are at a top tier level and nobody gives a shit haha

J Scott has no reason to even be mentioned here.

Pastor Maldonado. Just kidding, he is a alfa male.

To be fair Berger is ridiculously good and he doesn't have bad style either. I dont really know much about him other than that

In summary, like 80% of Bones Wheels riders

Surprised that Nyjah hasn't been on a box of Wheaties yet, it's the kind of cringe up his alley. Comes with a glow stick.

I'm not calling this person boring but I always expect much more thrill from Clive Dixon's extreme GNAR and yet am always left nonplussed. Does not seem fair ...
His 9Club interview is hilarious: his affect is super flat, was he super stoned?

"Chocolate" with zero Chocolate team members

Tyson Peterson

Steve Brandi puts in zero effort in any clip he is in

You’re fuckin boring dude

Joslin, sewa and dixon are all gnarly in their own right but just don’t care. Throw jamie foy in there too.
My real vote is for the entire April team.

French Jostlin

Gnarly does not equal not boring. But yes, you are entitled to your opinion friendo.

Paul Rodriguez - an incredible amount of talent but I can't think of one trick he's ever done where I thought "Wow, only Paul would have done that." He's done all kinds of impressive things, but all of them are v cookie cutter.

Skateboarding is one of those paradoxical things where at a certain level of technical proficiency you can cross some threshold and become "boring". This is due to the seeming absence the things that make it interesting, most notably difficulty and dangerous-ness. When there is no struggle, no tension, no effort it can become too mechanical, cold, or dry. This is where style becomes most essential and is often most absent. Boringness can also be counteracted by spot selection. If it is gnarly or novel it won't be boring. Interesting garments can also help.

100% accurate. The absence of some sketchiness sort of puts some of these skaters into our version of the uncanny valley and it becomes unpleasant to view.

i agree with all of this. when that asian looking guy in the new noah video ollied that 10 stair and looked back at it and you saw that he just pushed himself to do something he never imagined to be able to do, that was so sick.
to me its like having sex. if you love the girl and she loves you thats the best sex you can have, not the pornstar that can do the whole kamasutra. i dont need to hand stand fuck a girl in her ass, i want to feel something.
certain peoples limited bag of tricks and how they work with their limitation make them have a character.
that swhy i loved the pyramid counrty videos, because you could see everyone one up themselves no matter how limited they were.

guess you didnt see that tailslide kickflip out that was spicier than a jalapeno doused with shriracha

yeah switch back tail late kickflip out is about as cookie cutter as it gets. thats an old ass cookie too since he did that 9 years ago

This hurts man. I went to skatecamp with him in 1990...he was pretty ill.

B-b-but... he likes burritos... that's personality right? Liking burritos makes you not boring... right??

Joslin, but appreciate the gnar.

Shane Heyl has way too much personality to be on this list. Dude started Shake Junt and has been a hype man for a lot of his friends on Baker.

We all know that it's the Canadians.

John cardiel is hands down the most boring skater

The answer is Chris Roberts. Dude is the most vanilla, unimpressive, uninspiring BORING skater of all time

How often do you really see someone not touch their nose or tail during a 5-0 or nosegrind in a Chris Roberts video part anyway? Also, he likes La Croix, the most unimpressive seltzer. See, here in New England, we have Polar, so you're goddamn right I'm not impressed.

Appreciate the gnar but for me it's David Gonzalez

100% have to agree. I can't take him seriously.

Shane O'Neill is painfully boring from a personality perspective. I'd like to see just one clip of that guy chugging a beer and throwing up the shocker or something.

Funnily enough, I've only ever watched a few eps of the 9 Club. I'm mainly basing my opinion on his skating/skate career
