Damn per wilender now that's a dude that knows skating. Remember Don Brown ?

And Donny Barley has some sick style also.

[futuretalk]

I'm waiting for a skater who dresses, talks, walks, looks and kickflips like Bruce Lee kicks whose style is "no style" and "skating without skating".

[futuretalk]

come to think of it this idea might generate big bucks...I'm gonna start training and develop something and put my ideas into fruition. Watch this space!

Gino up until 99

Keenan

Busenitz

Pappalardo

Paul Sharpe

Don't forget Chris Lambert.

[fashionis4fools]

...whoah...who said tony hawk had style???

just look at the early birdhouse videos...with his lanky frame and long hair..he is painful to watch....much as i respect the guy and his achievment..he does not skate with any style at all..!!

beststyle:

tom pennny:looks like he could do anything without trying,with his eyes shut..naturual..

donger lieu:power and grace....this guy is so underrated..i love the way he use to put his hands out like an eagle..afterlanding a trick

mike v:pure punk rock skate and destroy style

guy Mariano: the young mariano in video days....kiddy cool personified...ive seen mariano lately in the girl and chocolate videos...but his new bling style...doesnt do anything for me..

spencer fujimoto in love child was just so good to watch.

koston is too smooth.....too tech....doesnt have that rawness...

the young jay adams and stacey peralta had style too..

[whosnervous]

IN NO ORDER:

not necessarily top 5 but just good shit. and not trying to name ones that have already been named.

1. Keenan

2. Fred gall

3.CHICO

4. S. Williams

5. Kevin Taylor

BONUS 5:

1. gabriel rodriguez

2. wenning

3. AJ Mazzu

4. devine calloway(i know its early)

5. Carl Shipman (remember that dude, best 360 flip)

[kdh]

These five guys changed skating forever in one way or another. They helped make it really interesting and fun to be a skater from the late 80s to middle 90s. There were others of course, but these came to mind first.

1. Gonz--innovation, the way he did his tricks.

2. Hensley--technical yet burly at the same time.

3. Jason Lee--flowing style.

4. Mike C.--Good trick combos and style.

5. Danny Way--I'm speechless.

Honorable mention:

Phil Shao--Could do whatever he wanted (learned to skate street well in a few months).

Jason Jesse--comedy, sickest ollies and anything to fakie I've ever seen on vert.

Neil Blender--comedy; had his own lip-trick style.

[rhymes with brasspole]

I think Phil's mom was selling some of his boards on ebay recently...might be worth checking out still.

He was unstoppable. I get teary eyed still everytime I watch Damage and Penal Code.
