Just met Jamie at a signing this year at a local skate shop. He literally fist bumped every single person in line. I was blown away. 🙌

The tricks they are talking about are impossible, especially going down handrails and huge gaps, so these guys are amazing

JT was my favorite skater growing up. This was an absolute gem to watch. As a 42 yr. Old it definitely gave inspiration.

@willrunriot 3 ай бұрын

Same, albeit a couple years younger (38). My brother who’s a year younger than me were huge JT fans. My 5 year old daughter has taken an interest in skating so I actually just bought a Zero deck to get back into it and skate with my kid!

As a skateboarder from Mississippi me and my entire skate crew looked up to and respected Jamie Thomas immensely. He wasn't just someone from the south who became pro he was literally one of the best of that era. It was proof you didn't have to be from Cali or a big city to make it in skateboarding.

Jamie Thomas is such a pillar in skating not just because of his stand-out career as a pro skater but because of his business acumen, sense of aesthetic, and contributions to skating culture. The cherry on top is his soft-spoken humility. It's interesting about how being bullied is sometimes the fire that either forges or breaks a human being. While bullying is bad, it also can ignite the kind of resilience it takes to land the Leap of Faith. If the Embarcadero crowd was like, "you got this" instead of barking after every trick, would we have Zero and Fallen and all the other video parts and things Jamie has created? Great interview. Loved it.

I was so excited when JT arrived on the scene, total breathe of fresh air, then I began to think after a few years he wasn't that cool, and now many years later I like him again. Hearing him on here and the Nine "no way - sick" Club has been eye-opening. He's very self-aware.

Ellis &Hawk who would have ever thought 🤷‍♂️ . It couldn’t be better. Squeaky clean front man with the Wild Card ! These guys separate would be good but together it’s magic !! JT so glad you’re a humble dude. Skated with you at the Brooklyn Banks Got a sneaky pic. I don’t know why but you were on an updated GONZ board with the updated old VISION graphic. Nice to see all these guys getting their due. Much Love to Tony ,Jason and of course JT. You guys are all part of my childhood and therefore part of my life. I’m 50 and I still skate out here in the ATL. Thank You Tony the parks are amazing ! Way better than NYC . lol.

Damn he is right about the visualizing it and losing it. It’s like being so used to the dream that the dreaming it is better or knowing you could and knowing you don’t have to prove it to anyone else anymore. I used to skate in a wasteland and was good for my area and going back my body won’t let me but when I have tried I faced this.

Wow I can relate to Jamie more than I expected. I used to jump off my roof for fun as a kid I noticed my friends would do it once and be pumped but I would eventually keep going higher and higher. Now I can drop huge cliffs on the snow and its def nd nature.Also I respect and relate to him with those trials qnd tribulations. Being homeless just to pursue your passion is so awesome. Definitely had a similiar time moving to the mountains with no home, just a ski pass.

Still got a copy of 'Welcome to Hell' on VHS. Jamie Thomas is such a legend and his part in that video is one of my all-time favorites. And his part is soundtracked to 'Hallowed be thy name' by Iron Maiden which makes it even better. Still so awesome to this day.
