Tom was one of the main guys who helped push technical street skating back in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He had all the blunt combo tricks down on curbs and kickflip wallrides. Tom turned pro for Santa Cruz and he still has a board on their veterans division. He also has dabbled in music.

he prolly ate at the Taco Bell after this session at Benicia.

Knox OOOOOZES style, and is still doing it at his later age, thanks to his training and excellence (and black belt) in Judo. Going all the way back to Micke Alba (and probably a couple guys before him), skaters and martial arts have made a smart combo.
Knox was an original rail destroyer, too. I remember so many photos of him laying down classic front-boards.
I saw him as a rookie win the Chicago shootout...to see all his blunt combos blew my mind..soo consistant and great style..way underrated...
