I grew up skating with Jordan in colchester, the nicest guy and i love seeing how much he has grown as a skater and person watched this whole thing with a smile on my face! Love you JThaxx
having bopth skated with him and even judged contests he rode in, this description of graceful loose style is really correct! Jordan had this firey hype way of skating where he would try things no one is doing and land things no one should be able to hang on to...but it never felt forced, it was just vibey and fun and fast paced and creative and all things good with skating! Two thumbs up on a well deserved clip here bud!
Jordan’s feet are so quick I had to watch most of the skating on 75% playback speed. Especially impressed with the rock to backside disaster variations. In my mid-2’s I went through though a phase of skating miniramps almost exclusively for a couple years. Had rock to back-tail stall down pretty well and tried to step it up and learn boardslide to back-tailslide on coping and found it way harder than expected; only ever pulled a handful and none really clean. I never really considered trying to back-D from rock/boardstall position but seeing this makes me wish I’d tried that back when my reflexes were sharp. Been skating since 1986 so that’s ~37 years of wear plus compounded injuries that have left my 46 y/o body too battered and arthritic for any serious coping-dancing but Jordan got me inspired to try some new stuff. Rock to back-D isn’t likely but maybe, just maybe, I could whip a feeble-stall into disaster… Can’t hurt to try, right? Actually, for skateboarders that saying is bullshit. It *can* hurt to try, and most definitely will hurt, but F it, that’s never stopped a skater before!
Such a mysterious dude! see how humble he is makes him even more mysterious. Anyway, beautiful skating, been a fan for a few years, and yeah, go get that american dream.
big up thackery, had the pleasure of seeing him skate at the king of kings in 2023, a humble man with so much skill on a skateboard, like so much skill. no one makes it look as easy as he does
Dude is sooo smooth. Never heard of him before. His smoothness and whole chjll vibe kind of reminds me of Hosoi. You can tell he's an artists both on and off his board.
Jordans the best, us Essex bods are super proud. Not the fact that he has become such an amazing skater, but because he has maintained being such a nice genuine guy despite being such a talented skateboarder.
Rune called it!! A graceful, loose style. One of THE very best natural styles I've ever seen. The board is like an extension of him, not something he's riding....
He's such a great skater and a beautiful human being! I've been lucky enough to meet him a couple of times and he's just magical on a skateboard and really really friendly. His style reminds me of Jaakko Ojanen's, just on transitions. Great looking video and amazing filming! The last ramp looks epic✨🛹
Saw him once when I was younger at this DIY in Nottingham. He did the fattest, steeziest, Ollie north I have ever done seen, over the sketchiest double hump. Still remember it lol. Englands rough spots and hostility for skating makes some persistent, creative skaters!
I liked those last words, how you should be appreciative for doing what you love. Do the most of what you have if you have it, it is still a job but its the best gig you can have, sponsored skateboarder. Most of us had to go find a job and work more then we skated at 20.
I used to see this dude at Cardiff plaza a long time ago, he would destroy the place. I took a photo of him doing a back noseblunt back 180 out on the jersey barrier on top of the hip. Good times, good memories. Super chill and friendly guy. So glad he's still shredding and thrasher have realised his abilities.
Rare when i get into a better mood from staring at my phone. His first run he did a bs 5-0 that was tweaked around so rad! Not sure ive seen that look before. Dope
It's rare to see a truly original style anymore, but this guy has one. Brilliant!
love when i've never heard of someone and instantly become a huge fan
go watch tea and biscuits, amazing skate video
you're in for a treat with the Tea & Biscuits vid

Biggup Empire skatepark haha
Ramprage*
Always been my favorite skater! Glad he's getting the recognition he deserves.
So underrated! Dude deserves way more shine:))
it's gonna take quite a bit of polish to get that dirt off , greasy asfk.
This dude reminds me of the guy who skated for element Brent Atchley.
Met Jordan a couple of times up and down the UK at events. Always the nicest and most pleasant lad, ace to see him on here. Killing it.
for anyone who hasn't seen his tea and biscuits part, go watch that right now!
That was him?? I remember loving that video when it dropped.
Was just about to comment the same thing - one of my favourites
Yer not my dad!
and his Dont Worry Gordo.. part.
Nah I’m watching this don’t tell me what to do

Seeing this guy skate when he was a kid at NASS festival to now. Deserves this so much!
Ever since tea and biscuits this man has been my fav transition skater easily. Beautiful music
Incredible style, hopefully not underrated much longer - time to shine!

Seen this guy skate in the flesh, one of the best styles out there
One of the smoothest styles on the mini ramp. love to see how far he's come and still continuously rippin
Such a mysterious dude! see how humble he is makes him even more mysterious. Anyway, beautiful skating, been a fan for a few years, and yeah, go get that american dream.
Just pure grace... One luv brother
Brilliant piece! So hyped to see new footage from him, need more!

When the indoor park opened up in Colchester, Jordan learned front noseblunts in a mini within 9 months of picking up a board.
I love it when people just cruise casually like he does in the pool at the beginning ❤
"that was bangin' what you on about?"😂 What a ledge.
Propa ledge. guys the needed vibe
Dude is sooo smooth. Never heard of him before. His smoothness and whole chjll vibe kind of reminds me of Hosoi. You can tell he's an artists both on and off his board.
So proud of you, no doubt you’ll keep moving forward on the journey with grace and finesse.
Jordans the best, us Essex bods are super proud. Not the fact that he has become such an amazing skater, but because he has maintained being such a nice genuine guy despite being such a talented skateboarder.
Yes Gordo! Smashed it mate!
I remember i saw him in Christiania at cph open, and he absolutely killed it! Him and Dannie Carlsen, two unique styles, both slay the transitions!
Beautiful episode! Love this guy's skating. Makes it seem like anything is possible.
He’s so smooth. Love it!
The style is incredible and also his way of tricks 🔥
he is one with his board. pure Flow !
Amazing talent. Completely at ease at all times.
This should be the target for everybody to be this connected to the flow of life!
He's fascinating and do damn good on the Board!

Total favourite and ruling human. Loved this!
The monologue at the end tho 👏🏽🥲
Such a good cold call
He really gives me Tom Penny mini ramp vibes
Tom Penny like skills on that mini ramp. Sick!
Bro what an absolutely unique style. So fuckin cool man instant fan right here.
this is such a mind blowing artistic skateboarding
Such a nice guy and a pleasure to watch rip
so glad he's getting some shine.
I liked those last words, how you should be appreciative for doing what you love.
Do the most of what you have if you have it, it is still a job but its the best gig you can have,
sponsored skateboarder.
Most of us had to go find a job and work more then we skated at 20.
we need more of Thackeray
he's a rad one, sick to see him on thrasher, great edit
Man is just so unbelievably talented.
The style and how long he skate a line @ so many awesome tricks

Love this dude's style, Repect man
Rare when i get into a better mood from staring at my phone. His first run he did a bs 5-0 that was tweaked around so rad! Not sure ive seen that look before. Dope
the grind over the deathbox is epic and that is one tight pool
Thackeray is a fucking transition wizard. I've always wanted to be able to skate like him and Sid
Just the best. Great skater, nice person.
first modern skater I’ve seen do a backside boneless with style. 👍 strangely forgotten art there
Pretty sure we were standing next to each other for some chaos during Swampfest, seriously an amazing guy on and off the board!
THAT WAS AWESOME!!! VERY CREATIVE AND GOOD SKATER...
F#ck yeah dude. proud of you eternally
1:22 floated to that back smith like a ghost 🔥🔥🔥🔥
One of the raddest, most stylish dudes, proper gluefoot cat-skills too!
Amazing. This dude is the real deal.
One of the most underrated pros
What’s the riff he’s playing around the 1:00 mark? Is it an original of his?
Beautiful!
So nice!
one of the more interesting skateboarders out there these days in my opinion :)
That banjo pickin' sounds great
