paraphrase those language experts, the Backstreet Boys.Yet what use is an accent that may be charming, red bridesmaid dresses short but which is so indecipherable that it imprisons you in the environs of your birthplace? For if people cannot understand what you are saying, then that is your problem vintage lace bridesmaid dresses , not theirs.Over the past decade or so, it has been fashionable to believe that parasol or fan instead of a bouquet. Whatever you decide to do tea length chiffon wedding dresses wholesale party dress , you can see that in fact red is a real option for your wedding dress. If you’re brave enough to break away from the norm and go red then you may just find that you are rewarded because you will be a truly memorable bride!

Just to clear this up. Nyjah should have won skater of the year but Grant Taylor is more of the Thrasher homie. I can tell you this, people might be doing the same shit as Nyjah, but no one could have ever filmed 5 minutes of straight bangers in 8 months. For that, Nyjah has my respect.

u call nyhaj a robot but how the hell is grant not a robot?? he does crazy big transition airs with no gear on huge concrete vert ramps. basicly if he didnt do all of those first try he would crack his scull open and break his arms and wrists. he is a robot in vert and pool skating. he has been skating before he could even walk and has the craziest concrete pool park in his backyard. you shouldnt put him so much higher than all the other young skaters cuz hes just as spoiled little kid as sheckler and nyjah and ortiz. but thats the reason they are all the best out there right now.

I don't understand why everyones sucking this kids dick. He is nowhere near SOTY material, I thought that new video part was all hyped up and wasn't good at all. I hate competition skaters. When I started skating we hated jocks and were completely against sports and now disgustingly skateboarding is being considered a sport. I don't get what happened I'm almost ashamed to be a skater now a days. I also don't understand when wearing your sisters pants became cool. Tight pants are not cool at all its actually extremely gay. Skater are supposed to be tought not little bitches that wear chick pants. Ohhhh how I miss the 90's

Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
So he doesn't actually say... but was that 2nd try?
Guest

Nicely worded mr townsley
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
we should just call it hateboarding now cause thats all these faggots on here do is hate on someone who deserves soty more then any other person in the world. who cares how he sets up for his kickflips. hes been doing em down 14 sets since he was 12. and saying that hes too good is no argument either. hateboarding at its finest right here. faggot haters gonna hate
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
wtf why would you smith it first try if you dont want to shoot your nuts up your ass.
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
nyjah is insane, extremely talented and hardworking. if you wanna see why he didn't win SOTY, go back and watch his part. see how he sets up his feet for the kickflip back lip, it says it all. little guy still has some growing up to do. also, winning street leagues and having a battle commander or probably reasons to NOT make someone SOTY. although, thrasher does have that big glaring monster logo...
Guest

why is it called "accident"? cant they just say slammed like everyone else or something that doesnt make nyjah sound like a machine? oh wait he is a machine. you ever sat and watched a machine do anything? gets old kids.

Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
that is a super super fucked up crazy approach to skateboarding! the whole thing he said about giving up on a trick before and how now he feels he has to do it and how he feels "there's not a choice". humans first instict is self preservation you know?

Guest

after a couple of years people might remember nyjah from 2011 and what he did that year but nobodys gonna remember what grant did. thats when you know who it should have been
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
Agree with all you guys. Nyjah put his life into that year, but I think he didnt expect he will be SOTY bcs he knows how it goes in Thrasher, everyone knows that. Guess Nyjah is for the moest skaters SOTY in heart and thats wassup!!!
Guest

I think the reason Grant Taylor is SOTY, because he was on tour with thrasher a lot. He has tricks in almost all of the thrasher web video. I don't see Njah houston skate with all the thasher skaterats. A lot in skateboarding is the charm that the skateboarders have, I'm sure there is someone out there that can do the same gnarly tricks just like both grant and njah. you can't deny that njah is skilled, but what it comes down to is how often you roll with the thrasher dudes. i was a little disappointed when I saw grant's SOTY part, but he keeps getting coverage so he won the SOTY.
Guest

The Only reason nyjah isnt soty is because of his image, sad but truPr
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
Yeah I agree with what people below me have said. Sure Grant Taylor has tranny skating in his pocket, but tranny skating can't touch the sheer dedication integral to gnarly street skating. Grant Taylor's video parts are amazing to watch, but seem more to showcase his skating than his tricks. It's less about what he does than how he does it. And there's a lot to be said for that, and it's certainly what makes someone an enjoyable skater to watch, but I don't think it should override a 100% gnarly street part. Sure Grant has style, trick selection, spot selection, overall coolness and a bunch of other things going for him, but he didn't put himself on the line as much as Nyjah did this year, so he shouldn't have gotten SOTY. That being said, Grant Taylor is one of my favorite skaters. But I guess I just esteem effort more highly than talent.
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
this is the real skater of the year. grant is awesome always but this was nyjahs year. The best video part in a while. tons of internet coverage including berrics battle commander dominating every contest he went into. lots of mag covers and a thrasher interview. i guess thrasher SOTY doesnt really mean much anymore unlike the good old days
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
if this was figgy or romero or anybody else doing this shit they would get mad props from everyone. but since its nyjah everybody just has to hate him because they got bored when he took out all the streetleague stops. thats a crazy fucking spot and trick and especially doing it after sacking and cutting his chin he should get the most respect of everything. true beast and he will have like 15 years of progress ahead of him so its just gnna be great
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
i think its bc no one at thrashr cares about street league. nyjah will prolly win every transworld award there is this year. grant taylor just fits "thrashers skater of the year" both are sick!
Guest
on Dec 9th 2011
How is the guy not SOTY? I know all these sk8 hipsters out there are on the Grant Taylor band wagon, but Nyjah has killed it this year. His video part was probably one of the best in recent memory and he has dominated professional sk8 competitions. I feel like people in the sk8 industry pull for GT b/c they want to act like they know something the rest of us don't. But by all empirical measures Nyjah was the best skater this year. I'm not downing GT. The dude is insanely good. I just don't think he's a better professional year than Nyjah. I think what hurts Nyjah is that he's so good and does everything with such ease people forget how insane his tricks are.
