WTF?!

Thatīs about 10 meters he jumps out of the halfpipe in which he actually lands in the first place... or maybe a bit less but its way to high when added up to the height of the pipe itself.. and then he falls down... I mean I think i would shit myself ... crazy...

damn, goes to show how long i havent been in the skating scene for  :-[

well Tony Hawks was the first to do half the vert moves we see today... Rodney Mullen invented a great deal of street moves aswell...

dont get me wrong, Danny Way is old school, and if i remember correctly, he can skate both vert and street fuckin pro, but Tony Hawks is the best Vert skater...
