@BurningBird1 My friends and I used to push for miles on those little rock hard wheels. On the rough, bumpy Portland streets in the winter after it snowed and there was gravel all over the place. I don't know how we did it.
it amazes me people are only just educating themselves on these people now! i still watch parts like this and jason lee in video days, to get psyched to skate.timeless skateboarding done with style...and he isnt wearing timberlands!! haha theyre airwalk mid tops that came in a bunch of random weird colours including that tan yellow he's wearing.
When I had this video on VHS, I used to pause it like at 1:07 when he does that fakey tre flip. his shadow along with the board if you pause it just right, it makes a cross. almost like jesus. i know, thats kinda deep.
Whenever I saw this guy skating in person, he would always go super aggro chucking his board into the bay (at pier 7) going ballistic when he couldn't put a run together. I always made sure to stay out of his way. lol
I think the terms "smooth" and "buttery" get thrown around a lot, but Jovontae Turner has one of the smoothest, relaxed styles I've ever seen. 5 Stars.
The switch backside noseslide fakie bigspin out at 1:07 is so god damn stylish.

Switch frontside pressure flip.
That has to be one of the toughest flatground tricks possible, seriously...especially on the bricks.
Best style ever.
