New to this forum but a skater for decades.

Whose style is the ugliest in your opinion (from the era when style came into play and forward)

Quim cardona (flimsy arms everywhere)

Chris Cole (probably an unpopular opinion around here but... rigid, robotic movements... Still crushes though)

Nate sherwood just ugly style and trick selection in general

Rowan zilla

Dan Pageau had one hell of an ugly style.
I don't even open the can of early 90s pros with ugly styles because I can't be bothered listing them all, bad times indeed, anyway I don't recall any of nowadays pros having a really ugly style, they all seem to have at least a decent one.

In defense of Cab, who has imho a great style, he always skated with his head a little crooked because of a chronic scoliosis.
Mullen was a freestyler first, the best ever, then in the late 80s he converted to street (freestyle was quickly dying) but still mantained that freestyle way of doing tricks that makes him unique.

A bad style is like smelly cheese, once you sniff it long enough you begin to love it.

Don't get this started. It's all gonna start innocent saying Andy Mac and Danny way then next thing you know it's Koston and Penny, before you know it GT and Cardiel getting thrown in the mix. "His style is just so tweaked that it's ugly. Lower your ollie"

Rodney Mullen skates like he's never cruised on a skateboard in his life.

Yeah, they're good but I have never been a fan of their style, both skating and clothes.

Jerry Hsu
Just his arm flap weird fist thing he does.
Looks a bit like a stroke victim.
Sorry Jerry, hammers though, God damn!

Jerry Hsu had a great style in the 2000s

Then he got all stiff and frantic looking.

Everything he lands nowadays looks like a hellish attempt to stay on his board, coupled with the fact that he dresses like he's 22, it's all kinda sad to watch

Koston’s and Cardiel’s shit can be questionable at times, imo. In certain clips where either one of them is skating handrails their rollaways just look shaky as fuck.
