Watching Jimmy Wilkins halfpike skating is actually fun.
He somehow figured how to use tall and gangly to his style advantage.

I thought of these three as well...Jake Johnson is up there, too.

Wow Nate Jones... now that's a part I'll be watching when I'm done working.
360 flips that were textbook perfect.

You have to be joking right???

New Figgy has a style I like for the first time. That switch back lip he did In Green was incredible looking, the only time I see switch back lip on a larger rail it seems to be by contest guys who have it robotically dialed 100%

Paul Sharpe was such a beast, opposite of the lanky tall guy style. Burnt the vhs tape rewatching his last 360 flip in rolling thunder.

True that. I’ll add parts to the names (but subbing out Miller for Matt Schnurr, you might not think because of the tech skating, but that guy’s a giant).

PAUL SHARPE

BRIAN YOUNG

That guy is truly amazing. They should just film all his runs and start a YouTube channel.

Well, he’s the tallest on Zero. JT is 5’8”, so Wimer is probably 6’ - he rips!

Definitely all sytlish dudes, but come on half of them aren't even six foot tall.

Most of the people memtioned are pretty skinny. I like the big and tall guys who look good on a board:
older Arto
Ben Schröder
I also liked Danny Way's skating before he went Mega and I joined Slap.

Are there any others?

Pat Duffy? Is he tall?
