As a 6'4 person I want to say Tx does miracles on his tiny board, I wonder how his style would  change if he rode 8.5+.

I'm 6'7" if I stand up straight. Curse the heavens for making skateboarding my passion instead of basketball or something.

Anyways, BA is the best tall skater.

Biased because I’m 6ft 4 but a tall guy with style will always out a skinny manlet, in my opinion. Idk something about it actually looking like a grown man, with an explosion of power rather than a delicate glide through the air.

How y'all forgetting Hjalte? For shame...

Edit: Just Googled how much 6ft is – you consider anything above 182cm as tall?!

American pro skaters skew very short, so yes, over 6' is tall to us.

I never would have guessed Shier is that tall… you sure thats not a error from converting metric data to the clearly superior imperial?

Seen Ellington in person and I'd be surprised if he is over 5 11 maybe 6 foot max.
Anyone remember Andre genovisi? Was he actually tall he always looked way too big for his board.
