Jim Thiebaud #5.



60.5 mm OJII Street Razors 95A.

I've been watching a bunch of the old clips with the SMA team on YouTube over the last couple of days to refresh my memory on how they skated. Jim did a bunch to pioneer early technical street skating. He was doing fakie ollies into manuals and tailslides along with varial kickflips. He was also doing a lot of lipslides and pushing how far you could take a railslide.

Congrats to Tyshawn Jones for winning Thrasher's Skater of the Year award. Everybody they nominated this year was worthy of the honor.
