In terms of OG status really Brian Tucci and Jahmal Williams hold the crown, both of those dudes have so much energy, are both still skate rats 20 years in the game and have awesome attitudes.  Nearly all of the dudes on their level have long since fled to Cali or somewhere else, had a career and retired or just vanished.

True. Tucci always gets overlooked when talking about east coast legends. Growing up in and around Philly, Ricky, Matt and Freddy will always be the first to come to mind when the legend talk starts.

Terrel Owens?

not sure if Panama Dan qualifies as a east coast legend. dude is from Panama and was around for only a couple years. not to take anything away from his skating, dude was sick and had some pop!

^^^ Jerry. He is seriously so good. Oh shit and Panama Dan and Pat Smith too.

Jerry has a smooth style, haven't seen much of him lately, same with pat, what's up with those dudes?

edit: I forgot Pat got on affiliate a while ago

Wasn't there an article with three "where are they nows" in a tws or something a year back or so? Jerry is an E.M.T. now.

What about Bear Hughes? rode for Element for a bit.
[close]

than he went to zooyork for a bit, he had some footy in their promo (Ellis Island) and than quit after that

I think you're talking about Kenny Hughes.  Bear Hughes is a total different person.  He used to ride for them when it was still called Underworld Element.  What about Eric Ruwaldi?

We usually punt those guys into the Atlantic. Preferably, off a big cliff in New England.

Eric Ruwadi is a sucka. He owes me a board from LOVE's infamous board jacking days.

I see Tucci killing Pulaski on a daily basis. He's been doing it for a long time too.

jimmy mcdonald, not a legend yet but his skating is so sick, hes got the creativity of puleo and the power of oyola, and he skates everything from rails to manual pads with lots of speed.
