Comparative part-ology should be offered at the 300 level at Skateboard University.

Interesting.  While I love the Tom Knox part, it is neither as groundbreaking as Gonz in Video Days nor does it show an approach that is progressive on all terrain.  I would say the modern day peak Gonz is closer to maybe Rowan?  I don't know if I am doing this wrong but I like the thread idea.

Nik Stain is this generation's most direct (and most obvious) spiritual successor to Ricky Oyola. Discuss.

 Rowan is definitely a very good contemporary analogue to Gonz, he has a similar loosiness in his style. Post a part!

Funnily enough given its "SOTY season", on rewatching the Gonz part I saw a lot of similarities to Mason Silva as well (alley-hoop fs 180 to sw bs 50s!). It's insane how closely that part prefigures so much of today's street skating in general.

This one ^ is spot on, and so is this:

Nik Stain is this generation's most direct (and most obvious) spiritual successor to Ricky Oyola. Discuss.

Never though of it before, but makes perfect sense now: the simple tricks done well, the endless lines on relatively random street spots, the speed.

Antithetical realization of the same notion.

Style, approach and power in general, but especially Cards' last and Pedro's first front board.
