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.

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.
