Skateboarding question.

I know very little about skateboarding. 

I hold this opinion and wondered how creditable it is. 

Rodney Mullen and Danny Way are two of the very best skateboarders ever.

I’m fairly happy in this opinion without knowing whether it’s a bit of a punter opinion or by playing tony hawk 3 (watcing the videos you unlock) i’ve actually hit upon the truth!

Rodney Mullen was no doubt the fore father of modern street skating tricks. See if you can find some mid 80’s footage of that guy on a freestyle board.

Danny Way, well he just keeps pushing the limits of how big you can go (and not die) on a skateboard.

Bob Burquist is also a stand out.

Who Is this Tony Hawk person I keep hearing about?
^ On that not - I’ve no idea of Shawn White or Kelly Slater, are they influential?
wink hehehehehehe

But seriously - since when were gods allowed to come to earth and compete against humans. It’s just not fair.
