Jazzpick - Danny Minnick in Next Generation

Skateboarding is at a point where variation and acceptance is at an all time high. Park guys, street guys, vert, rails, curbs, no comply's, and ledge dancing is all accepted. Despite all of the tolerance, skateboarding has neglected to bring back this extinct creature called the mini ramp pro. 

H-Street's Next Generation (1992) exemplifies the mini ramp pro at the peak of its existence. Some of the parts may be a bit hard to watch in this video but I think Danny Minnick came through with a short and sweet part with style and originality. That's why we pay homage this month to a criminally underrated part that would put most of these Cayucos ramp kids to shame.

Don't knock coping dancers until you've tried them. They're not easy.
