Mans got the spots, the style and the tricks.

Trying to imagine a Stallion version of this and how much would be lost to the zoom.

Fuck that. This was awesome.

Grant does bite Strobeck though... and there was a lot lost to zooming in this video...

Big fan of this guy. Great style, fits, trick selection and spot selection. Honestly would like to see him somewhere better than WKND. Also huge respect for bringing the spiked belt back, haven't seen that paired with button-ups previously, but I think he pulled it off. Spiked belt x Shorty's shirt fit was also sick.

What's wrong with WKND? Seems like they let the riders do their thing and are selling well enough.

I saw him at a toy machine demo in 2008, and instantly became a fan, he's hilarious and super fun to watch skate.

if only Jimi britches didn't kibosh wknd's distribution in canada, i'd love to have picked up his board.

What's the story here? Been through Mehrathon for a few years at least now. I know there was that Grant getting clocked at a restaurant story, did that reverberate all the way to Canadian skate distro?

from what i remember hearing on here, it was supposed to be through supra. jimi threw a hissy fit and said if wknd went through supra fa would pull out.

supra merged with take 5 which was the wknd distro at the time, and from what i know jimi gave the ultimatum, lose wknd or lose us. fa/hockey kills it in canada so they pulled the plug on wknd.

i’m sure it wasn’t a huge loss for supra, but they probably would have done a lot more with wknd than mehrathon has. they (supra) do a good job at marketing their brands.

Been on heavy rotation this weekend. Such a fantastic part.


Nothing quite gets me as excited about skating than somebody with a really creative approach without being gimmicky and maintaining a pretty grounded trick selection. Huge fan and maybe his best part yet.

That was just beautiful. Dude has unique spots, tricks, style, fashion, charisma-basically the complete package.
Like some others mentioned, I wish that the fimer(s) chilled out on the Strobeck style zooms because so much of Jordan Taylor's aesthetic is how interesting the spots are and how he navigates them in ways that are unexpected and inimitable- so I feel that sometimes the overzealous zoom reduces the ability to examine and appreciate the terrain. But whatever, I still think it's a such great part. Now I've got to go watch all his other parts.
You did it again, Gordo.

The intro was legitimately funny and the whole part was sick.  Creative, entertaining skating that makes me want to go charge at some crusty shit.  Good job, Jack White lookin ass.


i also liked when he went into the hole.

Didn't really pay that much attention to him on Toy, but has been one of my favorites for the past 5 or so years since his Gordo2K Part.

NB# has probably two of the most interesting skaters around right now for spot selection in Gordo and Tom Knox.

Seeing this edit, I feel that Grant is very self-concious at this point and wants to be in the "cool guy zone" with Palace, Quasi, FA, etc.  and he's not realizing that he would have a lot of potential with WKND if he stopped trying to copy everyone else.
The '80s were the worst period. You had these horrible pop bands growing their hair and calling themselves metal.

After the clip I saw earlier it definitely motivated me to peep it. If this came out in one of the Digital videos back then I would be stuck on it 4 atleast 6mo. Really refreshing & so cool. Watch til' the end 4 Braydon :D

Did you know that if you looked up "cool" in the dictionary you would find a picture of Leo Romero.

Never a bad part from Jordan. WKND has been pretty consistent, and Tom K and Jordan on the same board company makes so much sense.

This is such a sick part. Genuinely unique skating during a time where the cool thing is to be unique-seeming.

Most I’ve enjoyed WKND content in ages.

wknd skits & videos have all been outstanding.. be cool if they did a full length video like “cant stop the firm” style with skits between parts
