Stone Age Clip of the Week: Grant Taylor

[jesquire27]

That's a bad mofo right there.

[13johm]

@ 1:31 he took a hard hit.

[Jalen6six]

The Brandon Westgate of transition

[JefftheSk8ter134]

2:21 "i got a boner!"

[volcomdude44444]

as he was skating my local park, the dude at the end of 4am bay bridge music was like, "thats what i represent"

life changing experience.

[howtospin]

I'm glad they didnt put music in this.

[SticknIT100]

i think i seen sea skate in Seattle that was sick

[MrHubbaskater7]

yeah man i see wear your coming from

[MAKER6450]

this guy rips.

he skates the best spots.

he skates anything and everything....thats a real skater.

[WuFaceProductions]

where is that skatepark in the end?

[MAKER6450]

@WuFaceProductions I think all the spots are in korea

[WuFaceProductions]

@MAKER6450 at 1:30 that concrete park is in Mammoth Lakes, CA

[MAKER6450]

@WuFaceProductions fair enough.

most of the spots are in korea....all those good street spots are korea.

[amckail]

@WuFaceProductions HOOD RIVER my home park!

[xjoe1988x]

he shows people how to get it done, i bet those bowls and stuff were made just for him and very few people are good enough to skate things that big so well.

[41bene]

So much better without music, just the sound of skating is enough...

[nollietre72]

best style ever, hands fucking down.

[Awholefivepounds]

how does he get sutch cleen air on quater pipes iv been skating for a few yers and mine are no where nerre as nice hoWWWW

[tharbs123]

I can relate to all the people who disagree with him winning SOTY. But seriously, Nyjah will probably win Transworld SOTY so yall quit bitching. GT is sick. Okay Nyjah 270 boardslid hollywood high 16 and then kickflip backliped it right after. Amazing, Seen it on street league before though. Nothing new.

[espionage69979]

damn this guy is a boss at riding pools

[TheMrGnar]

What pant does he wear?

[adamrules265]

@TheMrGnar volcom chinos

[TwistedTraitor]

is that a thrasher long sleeve or crewneck he's wearing around 0:55 

[futtbuckr]

Mammoth lakes skatepark is even more incredible in person

[hateisntacrime]

3 people ride a scooter

[jumpingjeremy]

street tranny. I like it.

[BrushyZeus9249]

1:31 is why i don't want to vert skate. Btw beginning was awesome.

[nashville6669]

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sit through a commercial?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

Remember when the users controlled the site and now corporations?

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revolution!

Thumbs up to keep at the top of the page!

[Austinbatiger]

@nashville6669 Remember when I could watch a fucking video without this comment being spammed on there?

[zonybenvid]

So I don't understand how you can not appreciate this. I enjoy watching and attempting to skate all the disciplines and pool skating is like the soul of skating- without it skating would still be associated with the hula hoop.

[zonybenvid]

Anybody who's ever skated transition knows it takes a lot of balls to go at it the way he does let alone do it with style. Not to mention he skates street with that same intensity. To me the best skaters are the ones that make me want to skate not the ones that make me feel inferior- and this skating is universal. When you were a kid you didn't think, "I want to do a switch flip back tail" you thought, "I want to launch off of a huge ramp going really really fast."

[sheepgangordie]

Are people really bitching about him getting soty? Why does it even matter? All these awards and shit for skating, all this contest bullshit. People are turning skating into something it's not, I'm almost positive pros could care less, like yeah they're probably stoked for a little, but it's not like they're out to defend they're "title". When it comes down to it it's all just about skating, not some fuckin award.

[PerryEnix]

1:14 "Yeah how you doin'?" "PUSSY."

[constantinehelmet]

SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT IS SOTY

[SEPINEO2]

skating is skating. if you want to "flick" the board then theres nothing wrong with that.

[skatedestroy1216]

@scrotumcasserole ROFL man that was awesome thumbs up for you.

[bowiesk8ter]

WTF Is he doing at 1:51 ??

[hateisntacrime]

His style is Go Fast, Go Big or do nothing

[MrMonstersk8er]

@br1anp3ck You STFU. You don't know what you're talking about. That kind of style and skating was back in the 80's where skaters got massive air, speed, and air but, I'm not saying it's gay but that 80's skating HAS NO STYLE because you just get big air and all that. Now it's a new generation fag. It's called the 90's skating where skating is about style, creativity, speed, and technicality like flips tricks and grinds.

[yurmomaX3000]

not to be a hater but his skating is really boring. fs air, bs air, fs 5-0 grind.

[dbspaceoditty]

some body please give me video proof of why this guy is SOTY material. i havent seen any footage of him that shows he should be anything more then an am. i see am skaters every day do bigger and better things...unless every trick he has ever done on video is switch i dont understand all the credit he is getting.

then again. SOTY has almost always been a hack job popularity contest.

[LurkerDanny]

@dbspaceoditty video part dropping tomorrow on thrasher and another dropping next week.. watch them. youll see/

[jeffreyphunmongkol]

@dbspaceoditty bigger and better...? this guy goes pretty fucking big...

[falleinloveshoes7]

@dbspaceoditty your life sucks dick,quit trolling because your favorite street leauge skater didn't win.

[IRatatatI]

haha uploaded on my birthday

[hauntedshore204]

Yeah... I mean yyeeeeaaaaayyah. Skate tranny

[DougglesMagnificent]

GUISE SK8ING ISN'T ALL ABOUT TECH TRICKS IT'S ABOUT A;LSKDJFAOI4UNFGASLDFKN

blah blah blah

[ThunderHamilton]

this dude has the best style

[iceman8593]

but im not a rapper....

[Skatelifeish]

SOTY

[nativeskater1]

i like the music

[MrJordance]

i guess alot of old school guys would want him soty out of nostalgia for the time before around 10 out of 13 skaters were street skaters but i think nyjah huston might be a little better not that he isnt good

[3fl1ppp]

SOTY??? WHY??? just cuz he does big airs and stuff?? not a single damn flip trick!! he's definitely awesome, but there are so many other skaters that deserve SOTY. his Nike part BETTER WRECK SHIT, cmon man! CHANGE MY MIND!

[coliseum2]

everyone needs to get off his nuts already, we get it he skates fast and does fs airs.... he hasnt done shit this year... everyone sucks his dick so hard.. theres a fs air kid in every town big deal... all the pros are wack too scared to have to own opinion just taking turns sucking dick...sooooo many better skaters

[Rudkut]

@coliseum2 he hasnt done shit this year? next week he drops a trasher and a nike part! dude whats wrong with you?

[coliseum2]

@Rudkut lol i knew people would get hurt i was just kidding

[ThunderHamilton]

@coliseum2 your a kook



[tacompton2]

soty no but good skater

[15Jack95]

SOTY

[wowow0w1]

@15Jack95 mmmhhhmmmm thats right

[roscoemoore77]

john cardiel??

[OJfreshsqueezed]

@scrotumcasserole and your a faggot with a youtube account called scrotum casserole

[c0nztribe]

SOTY? i think yes

[tuodekab]

i heard the velvet underground in there somewhere

[oidaniel100]

honly fuck he is look like Brandon Westgate

[Artokaas]

you always wonder mid-air if he's gonna tap it to disaster or not

[TheMastakilla4201]

Lol if grant taylor sucks then I'm denzel washinton

[lopiiiiiskank]

fukkk. i put thumbs down by accident :[

[OJfreshsqueezed]

why the fuck is everyone saying he should be soty. he is a fucking faggot that just does a bunch of frontside/backside ollies

[secondhandbeast]

is there a pool this guy cant skate?

[mrsteezyrider]

Fuckin sick. Fuck all y'all skate haters. Y'all prolly never even heard of GT till SOTY mentioned him. Yall need to get of the dick man, fall the fuck back like a bike with no kick stand.

[OJfreshsqueezed]

@mrsteezyrider stfu u lil wayne poser

[GraySkaleProductions]

Fs 180, ollies, 5-0, 50-50 and a few grabs. There I summarized the whole video.

[espionage69979]

@GraySkaleProductions oh thanks i didnt need to watch it now !!!!!

[GraySkaleProductions]

@espionage69979 No problem! lol

[coliseum2]

truth its better than a boring tech line

[coliseum2]

grant taylors sick and all no doubt, but people jock way too hard. How many times is a fs air going to be sick? i already knew before i watched this that there were going to be a shit load of fs airs and 5-0s... c'mon, skater of the year? is this really what people think is the best?

[br1anp3ck]

@coliseum2 Fuck yeah it is dude, skating is about riding with power, presence and style... not about how you can flick your board around all small and technical-like

[TheDurty630]

@br1anp3ck so trippy

[FriedRice01]

@br1anp3ck So your basically saying Rodney Mullen doesn't know how to skate?LOL GG

[alfredoking14]

@br1anp3ck *grant taylor's skating. skatings whatever you make it.

[SkateReviewChannel]

@br1anp3ck no dude, skating is about being creative and doing whatever the fuck you want, skating shouldnt be labelled, it should be about free will

[purplemonkey178]

@SkateReviewChannel agreed

[jomanine]

@br1anp3ck actually theyre both about as important as each other

[synemon]

@br1anp3ck power and presence? wtf? probably not the best adjectives to use there buddy...

[tehbossasian]

@br1anp3ck its about whatever the fuck you want it to be about stop pretending to be some type of skate god....

[kolbytard]

Grants the man

[bJONESsk8er]

killin ittt

[matthewjamal]

the people watching him at the beginning probably thought he was gonna do a full loop haha

[terminader24]

jack roof????

[NateLP02]

just watching this gives me the sweaty palms

[SchindleSkater]

whats the song ?

[matthewjamal]

man his arm steeze is tight. It looks like the skate gods in heaven are being his puppeteer.

[DGKallDay137]

he is one steeze mofo...

[phatwhutskatevideos]

grant taylor truly is you're favorite skater's favorite skater!

[armin38822]

I hate when he's in the air and everybody is yelling.

[Spitfire515O]

@hypehoops - Yes, under the right conditions and on some obstacles, ollies are very hard. You obviously can't skate tranny. This guy is young and can hit huge stuff with more style that most seasoned pros. Watch his debacle part and get a clue, man. I'd like to see you ollie on something with 3' tranny and 4' vert. In his older footage there's more flip tricks but I'd rather watch this any day of the week.

[11yearoldscene]

dude.....go tell chris cole to shred a pool and do all those.go skate like a frikin 65 year old kinked rail.i hate chris cole

[mattnsim]

grant taylor's ollies leave other pro's ollie in the dust..
