“most pros were skating curbs and small ledges. He skated big and kinked rails that were looked at as not skateable by the entire sport.”

Yeah. You have to remember the part was filmed in 91. Natas started board sliding handrails just 5 years before that, and most pros were skating curbs and small ledges. He skated big and kinked rails that were looked at as not skateable by the entire sport. At the time, it was like watching someone from the future just showing everyone what was possible. This video [VIDEO] helps to put it into perspective.
