First saw him in static? Can't find his part online. First line he was wearing brown accels I believe. Around 2004ish, so i think it was static II. Anyways, this dude has always ripped. I really don't understand how he hasn't been picked up by big companies. Dope style and pops all his tricks

Dude is super underrated. His part in this skating to Dave Van Ronk is so ill. (starts at around 7:52)

Insane how underrated that dude is.
There was a nine club where Kelly talked about how good he is and that made me stoked

Such a great skater. I remember being super into the shared part he and Austin Kanfoush had when they were both on Axion.

You might be thinking of EST 4.0? That came out around then too, Kyle had a shared part with John Kroesser in it.

I went to the same school as him. He was a couple grades ahead of me but we'd skate after school and at the park sometimes.
He could do cab flips on hips and nollie flip like 8 stairs in middle school, was pretty crazy at the time.

He had a part in a Capital/Nicotine video from like 2003 too. The video was ridiculous, it was like half hesh pool skating, then a Kyle Nicholson part where he's probably 14, then like an hour of middle aged guys doing freestyle tricks in parking lots. Edited so horrendously too, I'd love to see it again.

I have always been so confused as to why he never gained more traction. He has always been crazy good looking on the board - has he been involved in drama, or was he just super unfortunate? I can name plenty of bigger names that I care less about than Kyle.

I'm really going to hold my breath on this one, I don't even care of the consequences, the people need it... I need it...

True underground legend of the 2000's, never got the shine he really deserved but is definitely one of the your-favorite-skaters-favorite-skater type.

skated with Kyle in Barca a few weeks back. Dude is still so fucking good. He hadn't skated in a month, and was destroying everything with perfect style . It was evident within 10 minutes of skating with him why his name deserved to be on a board.
