The Growing Legacy Of Skateboarding Tricks That Can’t Be Landed | Leap Of Faith | El Toro

In “The Growing Legacy Of Skateboarding Tricks That Can’t Be Landed | Leap Of Faith | El Toro“ we ask the question, what is the appeal of skateboarding tricks that weren’t landed?! It’s a sport such as baseball, if you hit a Game 7 World Series Home Run Game-Winner and it gets robbed at the wall, you are forgotten. If you compare that to analogy to skateboarding, if you at least tried and ALMOST hit that home run, you are a hero. Why do you think that is? Is this proof that skateboarding is truly NOT a sport? Is breaking down barriers and boundaries in Skateboarding not relatable to any other culture? Will some of these tricks EVER be actually landed? We asked various pros their take and pinpointed notable famous tricks that were never landed; such as the Jamie Thomas “Leap Of Faith“, Nyjah Huston and Ryan Sheckler attempting Backside Flip down El Toro 20, Chris Joslin attempting 360 flip down el toro, Heath Kirchart’s iconic massive kickflip as well as his insane Lipslide and Ali Boulala vs the Lyon 25 stair in France. The video also features Aaron “Jaws“ Homoki trying Heelflip down el toro and Dane Burman trying to Hardflip El Toro. Interviews include, Paul Rodriguez, Torey Pudwill, Ryan Sheckler, Chris Cole, Jamie Thomas, Jamie Foy, Dane Burman, Ronnie Creager, Jaws, Chris Joslin, Tim O’Connor, Mark Appleyard, Ryan Decenzo and Stefan Janoski. And of course, we threw in some Tony Hawk Pro Skater (THPS) footage. Be sure to check out Shrimpdaddy’s “El Toro“ Movie premiering you think somebody backside flips el toro in the movie?!
