Any serious skate fanatic has wondered at least once in their life what it would be like to break down skate videos by numbers. Pull out a pen and notepad, cue up a video, and start scribbling down as many data points as you can count.
The process is a serious grind, but luckily we have guest contributors, and one of them spent dozens of hours coming up with a pretty thorough skate video data analysis.
Jared decided to analyze some skateboarder’s entire careers through their video parts, appreciating them in a new way, starting with Jim Greco’s 25+ year prolific career.

Definitely more of these. The demographic of crossover spreadsheet nerds and skateboarding nerds is huge.
It reminds me of when Donovan Strain made a Berrics video where he compiled the stats on the Battle at on what got done the most and got letters the most. Fascinating stuff.
