[@TheFunkytownGotcha]

its mind blowing that skaters today can just have a "Sesh" at El Toro. doing anything off that used to be a career highlight.

[@ricktaylor1437]

50-50 el toro for an opener like meh... Crazy times.

[@ricktaylor1437]

Also feeble.

[@johnconnerhudgeons]

TheFunkytownGotcha seriously,!

[@landonderbyshire6462]

Right? He just goes and front feebles it second try. Insane.

[@exoticexperiments3008]

Bro why you asuming that they smoke weed 😂😂😂

[@swishersweets727]

Best part bout skating is just the pure positive vibes. Brings all races and age groups together for a good time. God bless all the skaters out there !

[@gratefuldrifter6588]

You said it,god bless you my friend.peace.....

[@RedCorvette9311]

10:21 Jamie gets sacked hard... true friend swooped in and passed him a blunt. Not all heroes wear capes

[@otaviofratini8173]

After a bail, weed is the best medication!!

[@JohnDoe-zq1ho]

Reefer actually increases acute pain, while helps with chronic pain, but with how strong it is nowadays, unless you freak out you’ll just be too zooted to be in your body.

[@brittbranton]

Foy is no joke. he's clearly working his ass off for Deathwish and skating in general. If anyone deserves the SOTY award it's him.

[@ThedudeMWsM]

Handrails musta done something to piss him off when he was younger. He just murder like 100. Foy for SOTY

[@jessehimmelsbach]

andrew thompson sooooooo weak right now... 😂😂😂😂

[@jessehimmelsbach]

Jamie foy is on a handrail rampage

[@JBaked]

They killed his father. N raped his mother

[@bestversionofmeforyou]

J. Baked poke jam

[@nathanchildress5995]

Jamie Foy is exactly what Deathwish needed; not that they weren't a sick team already

[@MilkSteak23]

Nathan Childress hopefully he doesn't quit for some less cool brand to make more money.

[@HairyNGross]

Nathan Childress They are stacked bro.

[@G4sTo0wN]

They fucked up when they fired Moose and Furby Especially Moose that dude got the best part on the deathwish video

[@MilkSteak23]

Yeah they were both awesome, haven't really seen anything from either of them since then.

[@thrashinwebster]

don't know about fury, but moose has been stacking shit for Mystery> he's been out injured for abit, but he is back rolling recently' the dude is sick' as soon as he turned pro for deathwish i brought first pro model board, the rocky and bullkwinkle piss take board the smoke one' would be rad if he was still on Deathwish tho

[@BillionaireFox]

saw the nose grind at 0:57, paused the video, went to thrasher, voted for Jamie Foy.

[@davidday9967]

STEEZBUTTER looked a bit like over crook but I could be wrong..

[@raulsonn]

Overcrook*

[@scronyx]

definitely not an overcrook.

[@MikiTroy]

Not an overcrook, not a nosegrind, so it's a semi-overcrook. ;-)

[@scronyx]

Troilo Michaël just a nosegrind

[@tiscayea5000]

7:04 For Whom The Rail Tolls

[@J.Lachaine]

This dude is the Chris Joslin of rails.

[@TheGrandWhiteFox]

15:54 That guy will never understand what he just witnessed

[@mmezi]

he was definitely only watching because he wanted to see him get hurt

[@sepiarain]

TheGrandWhiteFox hahahaha! XD

[@conorsheridan2998]

big boy foy graced his heart

[@brandonmeade9681]

so hip

[@PabloCruise91]

It's always like that in skate videos. Pedestrians just see the most amazing trick and they're like "mhmm...okay."

[@iglooproductions]

It’s always funny watching normal people observing skating, they don’t know / appreciate the difficulty. They just think “some guy sliding his skateboard down a handrail”.

[@winnemuccamangler7657]

Plus they won't know if somebody doing switch n shit

[@linkhiznoh9146]

Lol u talking bout the end huh ?

[@jamieskroberts4091]

ratz cavity bro I been skating years and still don’t realise when it’s switch lmao

[@notorioussloth]

igloo productions Or when a kid is genuinely amazed by a skate sesh in public and all they wanted was a skateboard afterwards

[@existextinct]

They can't wrap their heads around it

[@amadeoo1]

SOTY

[@naelvincent9491]

Aman G yea boii

[@finn3588]

Aman G But all he does is rails????

[@ratinthecat2]

As much as I want to agree with you, Clint Walker is my SOTY vote.

[@reillyjarrosiak63]

I voted baby

[@alexw9215]

I voted Riley, but Foy is definitely KILLING IT! Soooo many amazing parts this year it's hard to pick.

[@lukesanchez3741]

I really wonder what rail would scare Jamie foy

[@winnemuccamangler7657]

Maybe some radioactive one in Chernobyl suburbs

[@Dontbustthecrust]

The red kinker in Phoenix that owned him.

[@southwestcreativestooone]

that one dane burman hit up surely

[@WetermelonOfficial]

Where I live there is a totally skateable triple set with about 10 stairs on each set that has a triple kink rail and a triple kink Hubba on the side.. but I still don’t think this guy would think twice about skating it

[@southwestcreativestooone]

there's two 20 stair rails where i live, they're beyond rusted but definitely nyjah worthy

[@DaKoosh33]

So much of this part was either land it or get seriously f'd up trying it. I shook my head when chance and physics went out the window. Congrats Jamie!

[@IsabellaAdina]

he's seriously not fat though, i don't get why people are calling him fat.

[@skatevidcentral]

He's just really stocky you can tell he has a big bone structure, it's why he looks "fat" with clothing on.

[@rosaatomica9976]

Dystopia1980 no hes not "big boned" hes chunky, and they say hes fat because the average pro skater is like 6ft or something and skinny

[@skatevidcentral]

Have you seen pics of him without a shirt? He's not "chunky" he's actually decently built. He just has a stocky frame that makes him look compact as well as like I said having a bigger bone structure than other ectomorph pros. If you look at pics of him next to other guys like Nick Tucker even though he's short his arms/forearms are clearly much thicker and it's not because they're fat. Wrist size is an indicator of how big your bone structure is and Foy has big wrists. Also 11:50 you can clearly see his abs when he lifts up his shirt, if he were chunky it would be a gut. Also at 12:06

[@bowieboiwiewoiieowiuebowir9344]

Even if he is chunky. He still soty lol

[@JakeMCGreen]

Isabella Adina he’s fat compared to most skaters who are skinny af. It’s like saying Danica Patrick is hot, like yeah she is compared to fucking dude racecar drivers lol

[@bastney4804]

This dude skated himself in my heart

[@thecraigpaul6799]

Too damn good! I quit! I can’t believe how calm he is skating rails, it requires some ability to do what he does

[@24Mkmarchand]

How well are you Skateboarding now,it's been 3 years now 🤔

[@NinjaLifestyle]

Best dude out right now

[@eggman3020]

No one likes you

[@vrostiz2021]

Egg Man 😂

[@davidhugo6560]

Nyjah lol

[@codymarshall8578]

Egg Man hard

[@johnam1919]

Nope

[@draconianTL]

He is insanely good and has a wonderful fs crook. Also Beagle at 6:00-6:20 :) must be awesome filming with him and just having his positivity.

[@paultaylor7115]

So hyped when I saw this in my subscription box

[@littlerobot2340]

I think i broke my jaw having opened it so much in awe

[@nephimcknight5832]

The most surprising part is that anyone could dislike this - jealousy maybe? Some of the best skating I've ever seen right here. Jamie Foy for SOTY!

[@christophersawyer253]

Kick flip front feeble?!?!?! That huge heel flip over that rail was clean . The back tail to shove crook.... Lord have mercy. Those are some kirchart sized rails. I don't know who can up these hammers

[@ricktaylor1437]

Guy I hear ya.... Fuckin amazing!

[@christophersawyer253]

Rick Taylor that 17 min part felt like 5 min. I wonder what he has on transition.

[@nephimcknight5832]

Christopher Sawyer - lord have mercy indeed.

[@thrashinwebster]

they are FOY sized rails, I'm sure Heath would have a crack at some of them but shit is just progressing so rapidly as usual, kids grow up watching gnarly parts and just think shit like 50 50 el toro etc is the norm, i grew up watching 411, video radio, sight unseen, misled youth, and The End things like that, as well as older stuff' they were the start of shit getting gnarly but now things are just getting crazy, but at least there is more focus on style and being clean, because you could have the biggest bag of tricks, but if you aint got nice style then you are pretty much screwed' id sooner watch a nice clean kick flip down something or even just a really nice clean ollie than some mob ass 360 flip or something like that' all the contenders for SOTY this year are really rad dudes and so many of them deserve it for so many different reasons weather it be there trick selection or their style or whatever, i really think Jamie has a good chance but whoever does get it will be deserving of it just as much as any of the other contenders

[@christophersawyer253]

matt gillies yes, I grew up on all those same vids. Looking back of some of the tricks that made some of those videos, especially some of the sloppy landing stuff in the older plan B vids..... It would never fly today. My vote is FOY all day. I gotta wonder where the next level will be in 5 yrs. since they can't give it to Grant Taylor every year back to back (such clean buttery smooth lines)... I'm giving FOY my vote this year.

[@slimpickkns1178]

Make Jamie Foy SOTY @THRASHERMAGAZINE

[@jawsjawsjawsjaws]

Watching this is literally tearing my mind open.

[@chiprules96]

SOTY , my boy foy has this shit eeeeaasssyy

[@eekipeeki]

10:25 First time I've seen a good looking noseslide since Muska in Fulfill the Dream

[@highthai7]

this dudes been puttin in soo much work

[@ayr5941]

i been waiting for this rough cut, so sick

[@rileyculbert486]

Unbelievable. Best skating I’ve seen all year

[@jacobfrazier9030]

You know your part is insane when the first two tricks are a 50-50 and a feeble down El Toro WTF!!!!

[@DailyShit.]

Jacob Frazier for warm up

[@ezekielpeppers637]

13:50 SOTY

[@chrisivy8915]

LMfaoo

[@jwines24]

Homie pushing mongo on the scooter? Or am I trippin?

[@bh-0330]

This dude has some of the best balance I have ever seen.

[@faridgibani2764]

That's what I call freestyle skating. Best! Great job Mr. Foy!

[@rensagalirte]

PURE ART.... WHAT A PLEASURE TO WATCH...

[@PHILIPWATSON82]

The level of competition is just complete insanity 🔥🏆🔥

[@drewharrelson8758]

I live in southeast Florida where Jamie is from. I’ve ran into him a couple times since I’ve moved here. I haven’t spoken to him, just because I figure with him being so popular, he gets tired of people trying to talk his ear off, or ask for pics and stuff. I definitely make sure to watch everything he does though, because the man is just unrealistically consistent, and crazy technical. The other skateboarders coming out of this area are super talented as well. Idk what’s in the water here, but I’m all for it.

[@binx12512]

My excuse all these years "I'm way to big to be hucking myself down a flight of stairs"... Thanks Jamie, you've crushed my soul!

[@CrazyAssJokers]

I change my mind... I love you Joslin but I gotta vote for Foy.

[@gavinloge373]

I fucking love the way Jamie skates and his style is so smooth, Florida represent!!

[@SONOFABITCH]

Jamie Foy has a very tongue-in-cheek approach to skate spots.

[@ISAIAH96MARTIN]

Seeing this after ALREADY voting for him has made feel very proud of my decision

[@sircurveballs7188]

I've never seen a better handrail skater in my life..

[@Labergemusic]

If you simply click anythere on this video randomly, you're more likely to hear people cheering and reacting to his tricks than him landing them. That's how fucking good he is.

[@carterhamilton4949]

INCREDIBLE!

[@petepete8862]

That felt like 5 mins

[@austin122i]

KZbin just be doing to ya especially when you start binging on videos

[@JonnyBeoulve]

SKATER OF THE YEAR WINNER.

[@thecraigpaul6799]

That kick overkrooked was insanely perfect

[@alexpellizzari9371]

starts off with a huge banger..

[@MotoSly]

that BANG when landing feeble on el toro

[@kevinharing766]

Security guard at like 15:39 had no idea how to feel. He like: they ain't listening, but that was fuckin amazing and now they're kindly leaving... his face tho! The "I don't know how to feel just now" face. 🤣🤣🤣

[@realbrandonb]

Jamie Foy is a beast

[@TIGERGUTS]

Power nugget of Brilliance and Gnar! Hail Lord Foy! HAIL!

[@lokesmithix2647]

Enjoyed watching him

[@cannibalcanyon]

this dude shreds!

[@XXsurf990XX]

Chris Joslin: BIG gaps Jamie Foy: BIG rails My favorite two to watch currently

[@fadhilaswad1205]

You are the man

[@robertkennedy9369]

What a style man!

[@theKODFATHER1]

best 17 min of my life

[@drewskidmore9392]

I first saw this guy in the 2017 am scramble, knew he was gonna be fire. Glad to see I wasn't wrong.

[@exactlywhatisaid]

i had forgotten about that. kinda mind blowing how fast he went from Am to pro to SOTY?? crazy

[@davidnguyen283]

perfect form on every trick

[@sophiepaillottatibouet2006]

please make more part is so cool

[@destroya3303]

4:44 That heel flip was excellent

[@baratox1]

Ta de brincadeira 😧 avançado esse esquésito! 🙌🏼🔥

[@kmddetailer2867]

Good to see someone finally making use of that rail at 14:32 I grew up in the area, sick.

[@gabrielvlogs2803]

Ducking amazing!

[@oldirtybaker1019]

Amazing.

[@111dontworry]

avoiding studying for finals by watching this, but damn its sooooo worth it

[@kurtcoibainjr]

He seems to just be enjoying himself so much with his crew and friends

[@whereswalt2716]

Amazing!

[@AEMBowers]

Wow! Makes huge and technical rail tricks look effortless. That first front feeble was seriously committed. In terms of general looks and general style he kinda reminds me a bit of Brad Hayes, from the mid 90s.

[@seanrojas8213]

Enjoyed every minute very nice 👍🏼

[@erikturnbow1458]

I would like to see if any of the 69 users who thumbs downed this video can skate better than Jamie Foy. Jamie has the natural talent that everybody, who steps on a skateboard and has fun, wants. Kid f'n kills it, hands f'n down.

[@nutchunder]

why is it that bombing hills is fun, but when you watch other people do it your palms get sweaty?

[@ricktaylor1437]

Pebbles......

[@Unstable_Luis]

Honestly it's always like that but your palms don't sweat when you're the person that's going down

[@cadeoneal8137]

Because you care about other people.

[@GR8-45]

Jamie is a god tier skater One of my favorites for sure !

[@chetfreeland1920]

So flippin good

[@carsonbaker9646]

Amaziing

[@pdpablovega2912]

This guys sick with the rails 🤙🏽

[@indigosoul8673]

Skater of the year. Every year

[@brookywookie1107]

Too good 🙌

[@williamcarswell2483]

Jamie Foy for president

[@theubsurd1]

im just really impressed with 8:15 Dude rode up that curb like it was nothing

[@502jackal]

Watching this made me remember that 2017 has been the year of the handrails.

[@klekgarcia7238]

Good men ! !! Nice style

[@DDRaHolic]

IDK why but I love in videos when you see the security or whoever talk to the skater, then they say one more try, and then they get it. Or they get it as the guard is trying to make them leave and chasing them off.

[@Giesela0815]

Love that Chuch Bell Bang when he grinds the rails.

[@stay_humble8356]

Handrail skills on another level

[@justin4208]

SOTY!!!!! GNARLIEST PART THIS YEAR!!!!

[@jadsonsillas3585]

Simplicidade e muita potência

[@DeathProof392]

I like how the Camera man got hype at the exact time i got hype every time 🤟🏾

[@Nadroj_]

this guy is crazy ! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@augiecarlson6808]

Every time he lands anything it just looks like in his mind, he’s like “fuck the ground” because he lands so hard every time

[@jaimepatino9044]

the security guard was in aw when jaime landed the 5050 shove out

[@austinlyle3579]

jamie foy and evan smith are the best skaters out right now

[@JoeySkate24]

BIG BOY FOY FOR THE WIN !!!

[@mattnsim]

Nice work 🤘🏻

[@DeanMackenziebelldmb]

[@JoeySkate24]
