i was just thinking about carroll and i realised that i dont know many skaters who really have these tricks like perfect, stylish and down every time. carrol is the only one who came to mind i think im having a mental blank because i really cant think of anyone else but wat do u think?
-
I think Alex Olsen. Possibly Carroll. Beautifull, too.
-
chet motherfucking childress.
-
i cant think of his name, but one of the dudes on the board has a outrageous backsmith.
-
Torey pudwill has them down, and ben cundall
-
Duffy on transitions / anything
-
Busenitz
Scott Johnston
Jerry Fowler
Joey Pepper
-
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Kenny Reed. I remember him in Static one doing that on tall hand rail and being blown away.
-
carroll of handrails, duffy on tranny....
but my vote still goes to carroll hands down....

i kinda preferred the aristocrats in ancient civilizations
-
Wes Lott does an amazing one in Label Kills. My personal favorite.
I am anti-blacksmith. I prefer mechanized labor and the unskilled workforce. Cheaper, more efficient
-
after FF, there are way too many "best back smiths"....
-
did anyone see torey's last matix ad? holy shit! back smith on some window ledge atleast 4 feet high. higher than that bench in that clip someone posted. it's poked right down too.

julien stranger had a good one. that one antihero ripon ad shot was sick. like carrol, he's also got a sick front feeble which is the corollary trick. anyone remember an ad from the 90s on a 5 or 6 stair handrail where he's doing one, just totally over the top?
greco's in that zero video were right on too.

fixed
(Mike Smith originated frontside smith).
And, if you have the Animal Chin dvd, listen to the commentary and Tommy Guerrero refers to Mike Smith's invention as the Smith stop (I guess he didn't grind them very long or just went to stall).
