Rad photo, especially since the spot is going to be taken out, but that can't be a make right? It looks like he's going to land right in the middle of the bench.  I know some people don't care if the actual photo is the make and I usually don't but that one seems a little obvious. Maybe he's hauling ass and cleared it, though.

I think the photographer was more focused on framing his body between the buildings than snapping it at the apex. It does come off as a little early. Still rad, and I don't doubt T-funk did a really fast ollie on a bank.

Once everybody gets over the fact that t funk looks like he probably has a slingshot in his back pocket and lights bags of dog shit on Mr Wilson’s front porch, people are going to realize he should be held in the same regard as other modern legends.

TFunk is one of my favorites of the last decade. I go back and rewatch his shared DC part with Dekeyzer every couple weeks.

Also does anyone have that video of him bombing the hill set to Send Me On My Way?

Maybe he didn't clear it all the way, but landed most of the way there and surfed/carved out the remaining brick space?

It seems at least theoretically possible.

Based on his style and trick/spot selection, he is definitely capable of pulling off some "how did he do that shit?" type tricks.

thrashers covers have gotten so good. used to all be wide angle shots from bottom of stairs but these last few years have had a lot of really great covers.

I think it’s just the crazy wide angle making people think it’s a bail. There are 5 evenly spaced skate stoppers and he appears to be over the center one, which makes sense for the apex point.

Also,
I thought it wasnt just him solo, shouldve stuck with my og thought.

That would be sick if he went into the bank and jammed it on top of the bench.

I can't convince my brain this is real before I see the footage. Thought there's only a handful of people that have even rolled over it.

Love this dude’s skating, safety hands n all. I was shocked when he hit that gap to wallride in Baker 4. This dude is a monster I bet it’s a make.

only been there once like four years ago but i don't think that's possible from my memory. i believe there's a gap between the bench and the bank
also echoing what everyone else has said. his (supposed) trajectory makes it look impossible for both of those photos to be makes, so i'm excited to see the footage. predicting the t funk mid november soty run part

also it looks like the rail is cut out at the base of the bank at the beginning of the runup in the far right of the photo. would be sick if he ollied over the rail into the bank to get speed

Can you just admit it would be sick?
