Title: Team heights
Post by: Newphone on March 07, 2023, 08:33:32 PM
Team height, does it matter?  Should there be a balance of some taller skaters on a team (obviously there are less to go around) to make a well rounded video or can it all be short kings and you don’t notice?  What’s the shortest and tallest team average height of all time or currently?

Maybe a bit unfair because the team was small but gravis had Jake Johnson, Sam winter and arto so like 30% tall guys and I don't think they had any particularly short people.

Some of us were discussing in a thread not too long ago the different tall skaters on quasi. They've got a good number. Jake Johnson, Bobby De Keyzey, Justin Henry, John Rowe and if you are one for puns, Hannah Tallman

Edit: did Mystery pick their team based on height? They are all the same that's amazing

Pat Duffy looks pretty tall and him and Poncho Molar were on Think at the same time, Duffel was also on the team but idk if that counts cause he was still a kid

Baker - Reynolds, Ellington, Riley and Figgy are all pretty tall, 6'2 at least.

And then they got rippers like Sammy Baca who I'd guess is 5'7 or so. Dollin too, and T-Funk seems fairly short.

Jake Nunn, Sean Payne were also on think so that's I think a 6'5 and a 6'7 maybe the tallest combo but then they also had that Jerry Smyth guy who looked like he was about 5'3. Also don't know the exact overlap of all these people

I think the current foundation team is the shortest active team, at least that’s what I was thinking watching their video, not one especially short rider, but I can’t imagine anyone is over 5’6”.

I’d bet baker is still tallest average

If the whole team is on the petite side, it’s no big deal: film w/ the death lens fisheye & nobody will be the wiser.

Poetic collective has some decent sized scandis, I'm 6'6 and I dont run into many skaters within a head of my height. Couple of times a year, at most.

I'm 6'1" and I find myself being envious of the center of gravity that the short kings have.
