Like the other thread, but flip it and reverse it.

I'd go with Chet Childress; Back Smith, Back blunt, Back D
Andy Anderson, I cannot sanction your buffoonery.

Plenty of people who get praised for trick selection. It's not a selection if you only do 8 tricks.
Nate Jones, huf, kien lieu, Reese Forbes, Paul sharpe (those ones hurt)TNT, foundation video duty now for later just has the same dozen tricks

Muska's pretty infamous for a small bag. Even way, way back in the early 00's, I overheard kids at the shop saying Muska only did noseslides and tailslides.

Salabanzi did a lot of big flip front board, cab flip, crooked to back lip and backside flips.

I am sure he could probably do any trick if he wanted to.

Having signature tricks (which are hard as fuck and are multiple tricks at once) and having a small bag of tricks are two very different things

Aidan Mackey will do a switch nose stall or ooo maybe even a switch front shuv nose stall. He’ll do a switch 180 to barley grind. He will go downhill and manual.

Do 13 kickflip variations and no one says anything.

Do 13 heelflip variations and now you're the heelflip guy.

No Bastien slander will be tolerated. He has stuck to his staples more and more over his career but that Sorry part borderline showed he could do anything out the gate. After that point he had very little to prove on what his limits were.

I vote Daniel Castillo. Love the front 3s, inward heels and switch back heels though so I'm not complaining. He spices it up every so often but those are a guarantee in his footage.

I know I'll get a lot of shit for this but HUF (RIP). Though, he looked great doing his tricks.

Hot take but Pedro Delfino kind of just does lip slides and grinds and bonelesses. He’s super super sick but he ain’t doing sw back smiths or anything. Still love the guy

He really only does backside flip variations. His footage in Shrimp Blunt was better than Id have thought it would be though.

I know you got some hottest awful takes, but come on now. ::)

McCranker is one of those skateborders that can do big shit, small shit, tech shit, transition, manuals, handrails, grind, slides, switch, fakie, nollie, you name it. And then throw a couple of tricks no one has seen before in the mix too.

considering Theo is a top tier front heelflipper/bigspin heelflipper amongst many other tricks outside of backside flip variations, this is just flat out wrong.

lol i put it because most of his late 90s / early 2000ss parts are just front lips front tails and front fiftys down big rails like the muska
same reason i put heath kirchart
he even said his stay gold part was like the exact same as his mind field part

i know those guys can do whatever they want though but their video parts were never that technical. heath kickflip front 5050 and mccrank 5050 kickflip on le dome are gnar tech type stuff that really no one else at the time hardly could do (billy marks) it was just the type of skating they did that got high lighted.

oh shit terry kennedy needs to be on the list
