- What do you get when you have a controlling father, a strict and secluded Rastafarian upbringing, six Street Skateboarding World Championships, 13 Summer X Games gold medals, three ESPY awards, total domination of Olympic qualifying for Paris 2024, and sponsors the likes of Nike SB, Monster and Disorder Skateboards? You get Nyjah Huston at 28 years old and seemingly on top of the world of street skateboarding. He has come a long way since spending four years isolated on a rural farm in Puerto Rico under his father’s questionable managerial control. After he reunited with his mother and siblings, his mother spent her last $100 to get Nyjah from their home in Davis, California, to his first Street League Skateboarding event in Phoenix, Arizona. SLS, Ridiculousness and Fantasy Factory founder Rob Dyrdek had to lend Huston’s mother the money for a hotel room. Never one to disappoint, sixteen-year-old Huston stunned Dyrdek and the judges by winning the event, collecting a $150,000 prize and stabilizing his family’s financial situation. His meteoric rise in the skateboarding world has seen him win more prize money than any other professional skateboarder in history, but was almost snuffed out in its early stages. In a wide-ranging interview with Inked Magazine’s own Jayme Foxx that takes place aboard a private flight with Huston’s new aviation partner Set Jet, Inc., Nyjah opens up about his family, his career, his tattoos and his philosophy on skateboarding.

Whenever you see someone who has mastered a skill, know that they went through a time period when they were always by themselves.
That's totally true
Man, I've been seeing his skate career since he was so little. Maybe 8 or so. It's crazy that he's been able to do what he's passionate about for so long. It's truly amazing. He's literally one of, if not the greatest of all time.
Well its debatable cause there is Rodney Mullen
The 🐐!!!
I love how he Risks his Ink on the Daily....
Bout time he got on inked
Very chill interview, even though they barely talked about the tattoo's. But I don't understand why Inked is giving so much airtime to a private plane company. We're in the middle of a climate crisis for crying out loud. Do better, Inked.
Climate activist complain about everything LOL. I hope you understand the irony that you've probably flown in a commercial plane before and youre talking shit about private plane companies when you flying a jet blue plane is no different. I actually hope you counter back and say you've never flown in a plane before and ride a horse everywhere actually
lmao stop talking

@@user-ob6dt1fk5z thats fair
It's on the goverments to take action to make any real change to the climate crisis. Them stopping flying private isn't even going to be a drop in the ocean. Stupid ass comment.

Repent and believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Your good works won't save you. You must be born again! Hell is real, money and fame will save no one from hell fire. Jesus alone can save you!
