SOTW 1-23-11: Jamie Jacobson

Holy cow! I know, right, it’s amazing that I’ve actually updated the Shot of the Week two weeks in a row… Yuck yuck yuck. What’s amazing is that this kid (Young adult?, Seasoned veteran?) Jamie Jacobson apparently has this move down pat and isn’t bothered by hitting it without shoes. This capsule face carve is as Dave Duncan would say (over and over) “no joke.” Thanks to Dabe Alan again for the photo. I had to include the oversized enlargement for this one. I need to kick up the Shot of the Week anyway, it’s still set at a 2003 bandwidth.

  1. Pictures and video simply can not do that place justice.

    That thing is so high and so narrow that I get shudders just looking at it and imagining what kind of line would be needed to hit it.

    The thought of doing it barefoot requires a clean pair of underwear.

    I never wanted to say it but,yeah,the difference in picture size was very small.

    I love the new enlargement feature! Fits my screen nicely.

    Awesome shot.

  5. Sick, but since this is skateboarding, I’m obliged to mention that Benji did it first in flip-flops, and frontside.
