Nyjah Huston is the rare skateboarder who needs no introduction. Officially a pro for most of his life, and enjoying his status as the most successful street contest competitor in history, Huston is on top of the world. And he doesn’t plan to vacate that spot any time soon.
What Huston has accomplished since he started skating at 5 years old is seemingly impossible—never-been-done tricks, the mainstream recognition, the literal dozens of first-place victories—and it’s even tougher to reconcile his legend once you see the man perform in person.
Huston is the picture of Zen; if that 24-stair triple-kinked rail makes him nervous, he certainly doesn’t show it. How can someone so undeniably elevated still be perfectly centered?
