NEW YORK – 2015: Battery Park
FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF THE TYSHAWN LOW, DAVE CHAMI DIGS OUT SOME TJ GEMS FROM VAULTS:
I shot these photos of Tyshawn on 3 separate trips, the first was a filming trip for Away Days to Barcelona in Nov 2015, the second was a trip I took to skate with him in New York to finish up his Transworld Pro Spotlight and the third was a Hardies Hardware trip to Sydney in April 2017. Though Tyshawn was a rookie pro during this period it wasn’t hard to imagine that with his work ethic he would soon become Thrasher’s SOTY and then start racking up the Pro shoes with adidas. Tyshawn is a guy who deserves it all!
NEW YORK - 2015: This Switch Nosegrind 180 was a banger on its own but is actually the first trick in a line he filmed at this park in Harlem.
NEW YORK - 2015: After the Harlem line was in the bag, we headed to TJ's hometown; The Bronx, where he manhandled this nollie heelflip. This photo was the cover of the June 2016 issue of Transworld
NEW YORK - 2015: Front crooks... Productive mission
NEW YORK - 2015: Hanging out with Tyshawn in NY was amazing, no cars just bombing through traffic and ghost riding city bikes.
SYDNEY - 2017: Every skate tourist wants to get some at Martin Place...
