There's probably a thousand people who technically improved after their first part but it never hit as hard. I feel like I've named 999 in other threads recently so I'll just say Mike mo

Ya i mean that was an all time part but he only had 1 other part and it was bottom 25 % of that video (pretty sweet) good example

You don’t really have to drop huge parts these days to have a big following and sponsor worth. Lots of dudes are probably fine with not adding tons of pressure and dealing with the “this wasn’t as good as I was hoping” trolling that is much more present these days.

Marc Johnson mastered the art of the video part. A lot of pros from his era did.

Ya basically

Suciu , ishod with chronicles 2 imo , cant be more than a couple others that rly fulfilled potential etc (past their breakout part)

Cory kennedy PS of mike mo FF are obviously goat parts but everything after that for each of them was average at best

Its understandable to take foot off the gas when you made it sort of but damn 99 % of them do lol

  • I got the internet goin' nuts
Tom Knox is the only current pro whose parts I go back to a lot.

With the current footage onslaught, I'd rather pros put out something really memorable rather than put out a ton of footage I'm unlikely to ever re-watch.

Yeah the point of a part should be every 3 years you top yourself or at least around your usual level minimum

This applies more for 2010 +

Zered is an example of not putting it all together imo actually

Dumbass thread... not completely sure what OP's point is. You get these people exist outside of your head, right?

People very very rarely surpass their debut part or even put out another part at that same level
(Not counting a part like suciu in origin where i think he was 16 ish) 18 minimum i guess

Mason and franky are borderline but ya durao might be most egregious

Lemos is obviously another one

Luan to altho chronicles 2 is close , his extremely sorry part is technically top 5 when it came out and hasnt topped it

Brandon is still killing it 10+ years later.

I don't know what the fuck you've watched for skate videos in your life, but this is stupid
