This dude embodies the term “Thrasher” imo. No jock shit, no over produced drone shots, no social media posturing. Just raw fuckin street skateboarding at an extremely high level.
So even tho Nyjah gets down on crazier obstacles you don’t like it because of how he dresses or has things filmed lmao skating is about being yourself bro stop projecting your insecurity’s and just enjoy skateboarding
@@kimjong699 that’s a whole lot of shit I didn’t say. I respect Nyjah for being himself 100% but to _ME_ his hyper corporate image and choice of spots and trick selection don’t resonate with me or inspire me to get my board out.
It does, i think because it shows that you can do tricjs that are not even tricks by just being creative. Not too much of this is standard skating thats for sure
Its real skateboarding. He just goes out and skates and they happen to be filming. Not like oh im gonna go to this rail and back lip it because no one has done that and everyone skates here and i want recognition
@@harshivjotsingh8073 For real. People have been skating those banks for decades and never thought that ollie was even a possibility. People have been grinding up handrails since Leo did it in stay gold 12 years ago.
idk man, I kinda wish that the camera was either zoomed in on his face or his shoes at all times. What would really do it for me: if there was about 2 minutes of b roll footy of him smoking a joint with his homies, now THAT would be epic.
Fuck no it didn’t too many stand still shots. He need more follow shots to showcase the speed. Like that gap to fs smith, horrible filming. That’s like asking anybody yo could u film this right quick and they just stand there🤦🏽
@@sixish I don't think suciu should've gotten it last year for putting out 4 parts, 3 of which were throwaway footy. It was such a blatant attempt and Jake would've never went for that.
Reynolds’s has an insane eye for talent … it’s remarkable that he’s managed to keep baker at the top of skateboarding for all these years …. It’s simply because he knows how to pick riders that fit the brand and who wanna stick around and make it a lifelong relationship.. Dudes don’t leave baker , dudes who aren’t on baker anymore we’re let go by the boss himself .. people who ride for baker are baker for life and that’s incredibly rare in the skate industry..and it’s a testament to how good Andrew is as an owner
Maaan come on I know Tyshawn and nyjah def both killed it and tfunk may be one of those dudes that you could say wins soty because he’s more of the “thrasher” type. But man you can’t deny how insane this dudes skating is and let’s not forget the China banks ollie earlier this year along with with that whole part. Tfunk for SOTY dudes got my vote.
Nyjah deserves it this year, he’s been doing insane shit for 16years and he dropped a 12mimute banger full of bangers. Tfunk is dope but Nyjah deserves it
I’m 36 years old been skating since I was 12 and this guy is my favorite skater of all time. He can skate anything and he does it going Mach 1 . The goat.
Wow. T-Funk’s year is reminding me of how I felt when TNT and David Gonzales won their SOTYs. Raw Speed. Rad Style. And a ton of WTFs.. This part is at the center of what Thrasher culture is all about, in my opinion. Nonetheless, this is the most suspenseful running for SOTY, that I can remember, in the last 20 years.
absolutely incredible. these skaters just keep pushing the envelope getting gnarlier and gnarlier every year and t funk is up there with the best of them. so much respect
I think this solidifies him for SOTY, China bank cover and this part, some the best street skating I’ve seen came from him this year, him and Pedro Delfino never disappoint, anyone on Baker basically
Agreed. I love wade desarmo type technical street skating but guys like tfunk, Trujillo, tershy are skateboarding imo. Probably spelled every name incorrect lol
Was and remains my pick for SOTY. Wanna also point out how quickly edited this is simply for the amount of stuff he is rifling off. And the china banks ollie is still the most insane thing to go down this year. Plenty of rippers but the joy combined with terror in T Funk's parts this year I just think is different. Makes me wanna skate. Also WTF Vans put the kid on the team.
Tristan lives and breathes this shit. Everything as fast as possible, looks dangerous on a board it’s so much fun to watch. I can’t imagine witnessing this in person
I have watched this part 3 times today. All respect to Nyjah his parts ripped and were very impressive but to make a film analogy Nyjah is like the Avengers it's very impressive and polished and fine to see once but T Funk is like No Country for Old Men it is gritty and you can watch it multiple times and still love it.
this dudes skating is so unique...he sees things most people dont even consider.....he skating is 1 of.....so soty is always a hard decision and its hard to put on just 1 person....im just glad to witness all the greatness!!!✌️
so fun to watch, i love this guy's energy. he skates hard, fast, loose & destroys everything.... same with jack o'grady. those 2 are my top picks for soty. they rep what thrasher is all about...
SOTY BABY CMON THIS IS HIS YEAR im sorry but every time i see t funk flying into a spot at mock 10 just to hit the cleanest smith grind ive ever seen in my life it makes me feel all nice inside
hellz ya T-Funk - the ultimate test to a sick part...are you fired up to go shred after watching? Its a resounding yes after every T-Funk part, especially this one
The Deep Fried crew stayed at the Airbnb next to my house a few months ago on the same day my skateboard was stolen from my car (broken window). They were hella cool and gave me a GX1000 deck. This crew defines the term Thrasher - out for blood skateboarding and not in it for the fame or flex. Real fucking deal these dudes!! I know they did some shooting here in Portland and wondering when it’ll come out.
Trunk is insane lover watching his progression over the years and how he is molding as a skater and the kid shreds he will go down in skate history for sure
Wtf the end of this year has just been incredible for skating! T Funk, Louie, Nyjah and Tyshawn (many others, those are your SOTY candidates though!) all just taking it to the next level.. Great time to be a skate fan! 1:14 wtf how?!?
Damn! Love it! Thanks to whoever got him to get that last one again, 2nd was flawless! Bails were painful!!! That 2nd one he bounced and the hill bomb fall looked crazy!
ledges, switch trix, flip trix, hill bombs, rail chomps, gaps, transition, tech, gnar, roofs, manuals, SPEED; everything you want to see from skateboarding in one fried skater.
Come on! How can you not like Strobeck's "cool" style of filming where more than 75% of the shot is garbage?! And you can only see the skater's feet? lol. Supreme trash.
@@Lame-Over Yea word has it a lot of pros are feeling a little hurt that Nyjah murdered all the big rails in LA, even heard some have transitioned into curb skating to avoid being caught on camera too close to a rail.
My hands just sweat whenever he drops a part. Fast aggressive skating will always translate and look the best on video.
Like watching a horror movie
Same, I haven't had to rewind so much in ages. The street gap to slappy on a dry dusty curb is too psycho to even comprehend.
Wasn't paying attention to it but yeah same.. like watching someone free solo a mountain
Who is Grant Taylor?
t funk is destroying!
This dude embodies the term “Thrasher” imo. No jock shit, no over produced drone shots, no social media posturing. Just raw fuckin street skateboarding at an extremely high level.

One of the best years in Skateboarding ever!!!
Really though.

his parts are the only ones i had to watch over and over again this year...whoever thrasher picks...this is my skater of the year
This fool is the real deal. He does the absolute most with what he gots. So much heart. Keep it going, don't stop
I like the way T Funk went about it. Dropped shit all throughout the year. Like a true SOTY should do
for sure. tfunk deserves it more than anyone else right now.

Speed + Aggression + Style : T Funk - Skater of the Year !
of all the parts dropped by SOTY candidates this is easily my favorite. holy cow what a blast.
I promise you‘ll get hooked to my channel😎

All of his tricks are so gnarly! I had my jaw on the floor this whole video.
Way gnarly part! Taking it to all the classic SF spots. That OB gap is no joke!! Simply amazing!
Absolutely insane. Think t funk is my #1 right now. Love that fast style
T Funk’s part from earlier this year was 1 of my favorites & this is at least as good
I agree, Tom
He would still be my soty pick if he didn’t put anything else out but this just sealed the deal
DROPPIN HAMMERS! This year's SOTY pick is one of the best for a long time.
The dudes a living cannonball

absolutely incredible. these skaters just keep pushing the envelope getting gnarlier and gnarlier every year and t funk is up there with the best of them. so much respect

Nyjah does sick things, but this type of skateboarding is so much more interesting and impressive
Sound dumb lol
Agreed. I love wade desarmo type technical street skating but guys like tfunk, Trujillo, tershy are skateboarding imo.
Probably spelled every name incorrect lol
Was and remains my pick for SOTY. Wanna also point out how quickly edited this is simply for the amount of stuff he is rifling off. And the china banks ollie is still the most insane thing to go down this year. Plenty of rippers but the joy combined with terror in T Funk's parts this year I just think is different.

There's no way he hasn't had other offers, dude just wants to rock the vans
He should have a pro model on Vans like today.
Tristan lives and breathes this shit. Everything as fast as possible, looks dangerous on a board it’s so much fun to watch. I can’t imagine witnessing this in person
T funk charges harder than anyone currently imo..best power street skating I've seen lately
love parts that make me uncomfortable in my chair and that's especially happening when tfunk rolls switch down hills
T-funk + San Fran is a match made in heaven, they were made for eachother
I have watched this part 3 times today. All respect to Nyjah his parts ripped and were very impressive but to make a film analogy Nyjah is like the Avengers it's very impressive and polished and fine to see once but T Funk is like No Country for Old Men it is gritty and you can watch it multiple times and still love it.
I wanted to roast your post but I agree with you so I think I will decline this time.
Y’all just hate Nyjah for having $ lol …..Nyjahs parts rip this to shreds.
this dudes skating is so unique...he sees things most people dont even consider.....he skating is 1 of.....so soty is always a hard decision and its hard to put on just 1 person....im just glad to witness all the greatness!!!✌️
Now THAT'S what I'm talking about. This is the kinda skating I want to see and that deserves SOTY.
he’s so insanely comfortable skating at ludicrous speeds
T-Funk really grew up big 🔥🔥
8.25 to big bort like woaaahhh
Puase
Pause
One of the best styles in skateboarding. Like California surfer but super aggressive. Love it.
Just got to say, the song selection is on point. New York Dolls and Baker, can’t go wrong.
SOTY !!! Used to see Tristan ripping Pedlow when he was a lot younger, super stoked to see how he's developed. A lot of Zack Krull influence for sure!
And just like that, T-Funk was back into contention for SOTY 2022. 🔥
From a 35 yr skater. This is hands down the most hard charging, epic, style filled video ever produced, ever....in skateboarding history......
Wow 35 wow that’s so rad wow did u say 30 fr3akin 555555🤡🤡 holy shit brothernnnn
Well said. Absolutely.
Him and Milton are the only dudes still capturing what skating is all about. It’s not about the best tricks…it’s about the GNARLIEST tricks.
My favorite part of the year! One of my favorite parts ever! This part reminds me of what I love about skateboarding.
seeing him skate in person is so unreal bro
Just when you though the race was over... What a part, and thanks for having the Dolls rolling with him - fantastic all around!
Wow. Riding out those switch speed wobbles after the hippie hop!
Watched it about 4 times now and it just gets better everytime
T-Funk keeping hesh skaters in the SOTY conversation! 🍻🔥
Refreshing filming. We need a FOTY trophy make it happen
so fun to watch, i love this guy's energy. he skates hard, fast, loose & destroys everything.... same with jack o'grady. those 2 are my top picks for soty. they rep what thrasher is all about...
I completely agree. Two of my favorites and T-Funk definitely deserves SOTY. So much faster, looser, and more creative that the competition.
Jack o grady Is too fuckin sickkkk
New York Dolls and T-Funk... one of the GREATEST combinations ever
the best skater, best song, best brand and BEST VIDEO PART EVER
SOTY BABY CMON THIS IS HIS YEAR im sorry but every time i see t funk flying into a spot at mock 10 just to hit the cleanest smith grind ive ever seen in my life it makes me feel all nice inside
One of the most fun to watch for sure
Just when you think we’ve seen it all. The skate Gods stir the pot with a new twist.
you look at his eyes the craziness of the wild stuff he always does
Raw, straightforward street skate. One of the Best skate stuff i've ever seen.
Skates some pretty gnarly/unique spots 🔥
Baker is in such good hands. Love watching this kid skate

This speaks pretty clear...real street stuff, raw, fast, creative...such a good part!
T Funk is definitely one of the most gnarliest skaters of all time. Fast skating, ridiculous gaps, and unusual spots.
Always my favorite skater ❤
