Tiago Lemos #3.


Sure Shot.

Tiago has been on quite the roll lately by churning out three full parts of his high tech street skateboarding and scoring the cover of Thrasher. I like that he skated some handrails to add variety to the expected tall ledges. I wanted to find an ad of him on either Listen or BLVD, but that might have been a lot of time spent searching for something that didn't exist so I went with Primitive instead. I think Tiago was still sponsored by DC Shoes in 2019. In a perfect world, he should probably win SOTY this year, but I don't really see that happening. Thrasher needs to impose a one and done rule for the trophy going forward.

Superb photo! I don't understand what you mean by 'one and done' re SOTY - can you say a bit more?
