Well deserved. Saw this and hadn't seen it posted. Sorry for the low tech solution to getting the ad from paper to computer.

Well deserved with two amazing parts in a year. Definitely getting his board if it's 8".

don't get me wrong I think grant taylor is fucking SICK but i feel like they're tossing the pro status around a little too lightly.

he's kind of only been in the official am spotlight for not too long. I think they should have waited a little longer before turning him pro

Dude is fucking amazing, congrats to him. His dad must be proud, does that make them the second father/son former pro and pro?

I'm suprised he's pro already, but dude is definitely killin' it.
watching his Debacle part made me think about Tony T in In Bloom,
which is about the best praise I can think of...

Grant has that intangible quality about him when he skates, its so sick to watch.  I look forward to everything this kid does for the next ten years.

dude has the most natural style on a board, he looks like he's been skating for all his life and hes in his 30s (thats a good thing)
and i agree with the other comments, if brock isnt next for real im gonna be bummed.  they'll probably turn him pro after the video drops.
