Tom Penny – THE Mixtape

November 11th, 2009

No question, best skateboarder ever. period. All about the switch back lips and frontside flips over massive rails. FS Flip, kickflip BT and KF Indy in the pool and Kick Flip 5.0 down the rail are unbelievable even by todays standard and this was 10 years ago. Switch FS flip down carlsbad 3rd try back in 95

A very bold statement from Charles here and I will be the first to admit that there will be plenty of skateboarders nodding their heads in agreement. But, I think to say that he is the best skateboarder ever is too much. I think that he was more than likely one of the best street skaters at some point or another, but now he is getting old… To fully understand what I mean by this you need to see the new flip film, Extremely Sorry.

Cant embed the tape, so here is the link http://skateboarding.transworld.net/features/the-world-traveling-tom-penny-mixtape/
