Christian Hosoi
He invented the Christ Air and Rocket Air. One of the best vert skaters of all time and had epic battles with his rival Tony Hawk in the 80's, Hawk being the more technical skater and Hosoi being the one with most style and flair. Its a shame his speed addiction was his downfall. He was a great inspiration in the game of skateboarding to a lot of 80's babys on the WestCoast and in Hawaii. peep the documentary on netflix "Rising Son".
