Tony Cox Appreciation Thread
« on: February 19, 2007, 04:58:33 AM »
Tony Cox. Creative, stylish, (good looking), artistic. He is a skater unlike any other. This has probably been done tons of times but I'm going to do it again.

 When I first saw his little part in the Satori video, he blew my mind.









 Some of his art.








 Here is an interview.
http://www.skateboardermag.com/skateboarder-news-features/magazine/tonycox/

the i-path promo part http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcAWvnDemPU

 There arn't many Tony Cox clips on the net.


Anyway, lets appreciate him.

If you appreciate him so much, then how could you forget his Urban Canvas part.

I couldn't find his Urban Canvas part on the net.

And I have heared rumors about him being gay and all, but it doesn't really matter. He is cool both ways.


c'mon, you can't hate on the first picture! You gotta love it!

All you have to do is search Urban Canvas on Google Videos. And by all those pictures you have, I'm guessing your planing on making a Avril Lavine Appreciation Threaad as well.

How about his stuff in infinite momentum, and early ATM videos? Ive been a fan of his skating since Click came out back in 96. His interview in a recent focus (or was it FTK?) mag was a decent read. his satori in search of... part was a dissapointment. he has a unique selection of tricks. i remember seeing him at houston park in nyc a little after supernaut's demise attempting backside 360 melon's off the stair set. He didnt land it but i thought it was pretty crazy.

not so mindblowing. the opener was pretty much garbage.  the guy needs a board sponsor quick.
i could see him on either rasa or skatemental

Hes really good, but that would suck if he named his son Seymour.

You can appreciate both of us if you like.


 And sergio, I liked his Satori part a lot for some reason. Stop kicking me in the balls.

Am I the only person that finds humor in a gay man having the last name "Cox"?

I'm glad he's gay. There's not enough gay skateboarders.
He and Brian Anderson are very cute, by the way.

Is the rumor about Reese Forbes being gay true? He's a looker, too.
