Local newspapers. Nah jus fucksing around local shops that don't suck.

everyone who rides a skateboard
-
Pontus alv for his specific scene
-
mike v or bam
-
Gonz, Natas, Guerrero, Rodney. New ideas are priceless. What's the point of a scene, a diy spot, or a park without something to actually do on a skateboard?
In terms of individual cities, Steve Rodriguez seems like hes the man, despite the OIAM fiasco.
-
Gonz hawk mountain. Nowadays fucking j.j. Gilbert alrin team and vov
-
I dunno Jim T, Rocco, Kareem Campbell...

This thread is gay. Mullen is the godfather of modern day street skating & Tony Hawk was the first to reach modern day mainstream popularity though the sport. Obviously there's a bajillion others who have dedicated their lives to this shit & were game changers, but I feel like Hawk & Mullen are the most prominent. Still, it's lame to make it a "who did more?" thing.
But if y'all wanted my actual answer then it'd hands down be DaSk8D00D from early to mid 2012.

That guy is a knob.
I think like with most of the worlds geniuses, he was just misunderstood & ahead of his time. Like Steve jobs, he was hard to work with & overly passionate to a fault at times, but his impact was undeniable. A dent in the universe indeed.

this would have been a more interesting thread
but to answer your question i believe that Mullen did the first flatland ollie and several other building blocks of skateboarding
-
Hosoi, hawk, gonz, natas, mullen,alva, peralta, and a fuck tonne other people
-
I'll add Larry Stevenson, the inventor of the kicktail
and the guys who founded Thrasher and everything
-
Actually probably tony hawk. His video games made alot of kids start skating
-
Probably Rodney....invented a ton of stuff....rode shotgun through all the world stuff and made it so all desk are pretty much the same...
