Tyshawn Jones. Best skater Ever?
Спорт
Tyshawn Jones (born December 24, 1998) is a regular-footed American skateboarder, winner of the 2018 Thrasher Skater of the Year award.
Born in Manhattan, New York Jones grew up splitting his childhood between New Jersey and The Bronx, New York. After playing Skate with his brother and uncle at the age of 10, Jones was introduced to the world of skateboarding and purchased his first skateboard from Target. Although Jones' older brother (Brian Jones) eventually quit skateboarding, Tyshawn remained persistent without letting failures discourage him. After moving back to the Bronx from New Jersey Jones focused on skating more due to a lack of friends. Encountering skaters that were better gave Jones a competitive drive which pushed Jones to become better. Jones was a fan of Lizard King in his early days and part of a photo op featuring Lizard King followed by "thousands" of other skaters. Jones watched skate footage growing up:
"I used to go home from school and watch Andrew Reynolds’ Baker 3 part. I would just rewind his frontside flip over the Hollywood 16 rail over and over and over. Brian Herman, Antwuan Dixon… I’ve never even seen (Baker 3) all the way through, I’d just watch the parts."
After being exposed to the idea of sponsorship Jones worked on getting clips of himself skating in New York City, he saw this as an opportunity to cut cost of skateboarding equipment and wasn't so concerned about exposure. Initially Jones was under a flow sponsorship for Toy Machine. Jones first met Jason Dill (founder and CEO of Fucking Awesome) in 2011 in New York City. Dill was impressed by Jones' skating ability which evolved into Jones getting sponsored and going pro under Fucking Awesome. Jones' ability and style caught the eye of Supreme, which lead him to appear in several clips for the brand and eventually the store's 2014 video, cherry by Bill Strobeck. Jones' passion and post-trick-hype punctuated his unique style. Following the cherry video, Jones co-founded his own hardwear/apparel company, Hardies, with teammate Na-Kel Smith. Also in 2014, Jones signed with Adidas.He made his debut solo skate video part on Adidas' full-length team video, Away Days. Jones' first signature colorway/material with Adidas came out in 2017.

No shot bucko. In terms of athleticism compared to an athletics or NFL athlete he's the same level as a 12 year old no cap. I've seen him touch basketball rim, if he was top level he would be touching a 10 ft basketball rim with his shoulders.

"Best skater ever" is such a dumb statement. Skateboarding is an artform, it is not about who is best. You have legends, that is for sure. I would put him in the legend category, but I would never say anybody is the "best ever" because art is always subjective.

He's a good skater but he needs to work on getting more pop. He should try the new girl "pop secret" board.
His Ollie is crazy, looks like he's floating, like he's up just a little longer than it feels like he should be

He is still on the Tarheels right now. Wait til the Bulls sign him. I dont think there will be any question.
Yo listen I'm born and raised in New York both NYC and L.I. which they lovingly call the 6th Boro. Honestly those street cans aren't that crazy to pop an ollie over or 180 over but to nollie halfcab heel is so ridonk I have no words to describe. TJ has one of the best pop in skating but he never skates ledges or hand rails what's with that?
Man has no fear

Tyshawn you are a blessing to skateboarding. You ever in FL, this corny white boy got a guest room with your name on it.
I just hate the fact so many skaters value themselves above other human beings. When you're skating street spots, you're watching out for others, not the other way around. Just respect others, that's what the community used to be about. I guess for some people it goes as the bigger the talent, the bigger the ego. And ye I'm a skater. Respect others lads, enjoy, have fun!
