Chris Cole

  Hey everyone, so last time you heard me talk about Nyjah Houston and why he was liked/disliked with the skateboarding community. Well now I bring to you another skater who is also liked/disliked by the skateboarding community . The name Chris Cole ring a bell? Well he’s a 40 year old American skateboarder who is well known for having a very stiff skateboarding style.  http://www.xgames.com/athletes/3014653/chris-cole The thing about his skateboarding style and skateboarding videos is that he doesn’t miss a trick. His whole persona is to be the best of the best. That is why he has that nickname “Cobra Cole '' kind of like that similar name with Cobra Kai from karate kid.  He usually just films when he lands or he posts only the ones with good takes, and some people don’t like that anymore because it makes the person seem robotic almost. People like to see the whole set up for the tricks and then watching the person fail a time or two before they see the trick being lande...

Nyjah Houston

Hey skaters and people reading this because they saw the title of Nyjah Huston. Today I wanted to talk about the world's ranking number one skater, Nyjah Huston. Nyjah has made a huge impact on the skateboarding community in good and bad ways. I would for starters say that a good way he has impacted the skateboarding community is that he brought a lot of attention to the community and brought some more people in with his insane tricks and stunts going viral on social media platforms. There have also been bad things he had or not necessarily bad things he did but things that were bad in the eyes of the community. The thing about Nyjah is that he is known as a sell out. He has this reputation because he has big brand sponsors and does some crazy things for them that some people consider bad or “selling out” as another would say. One thing he did especially that people criticized him for was having a nude picture of himself with his back showing to the camera for a GQ magazine.  ( Pi...

Hey, welcome to my blog site which will be about skateboarding and the skateboarding world. My name is Josue Donato and I'm an amateur skater in the Chico area. I really enjoy skateboarding and reading about skateboarding news and then decided to start a blog. This isn’t a thrasher magazine but more of a fun little thing where I’ll try to talk about tricks and how to do them or where to learn how to do them or just things going on with skateboarding news. An example would be talking about how Nyjah Houston, globally ranked #1 street skater recently got injured. The injury was a torn ACL. So something like that along the lines would be news of what's going on in the skateboarding community.  Or learning a trick would be me talking about some of the tricks like an ollie or a kickflip came to be and where they originated and who started doing them. It kind of goes with the name of the blog, Jump While Rolling. It’s the equivalent to doing an ollie because you just jump with the sk...
