Hot take, but I wonder if the downvotes are from people seeing the word "Zion" and instinctually downvoting.

2:04 literally made me gasp when he started flailing mid-air while heading for the lower handrail.
As bad as it was, that's about the best that slam could have gone.
That was the last clip of that rail, so it looks like he never got the make. I don't blame him either. I'd be done after that too
I agree. I hate to admit I haven't heard about a third of the names on this list
The tre down El Toro was definitely worth the hype. I was in the camp that counted it the first time he did it years ago.
I love to see that he made it a personal mission, and finally accomplished it. The last minute and a half of a 5 minute part is understandably dedicated directly to it.
I hadn't heard Zion's name since the Olympics. I'll definitely have to keep watch for his new part.
I just peeped the REAL part that dropped a month ago.
I know helmets are passe in street skating, but I really wish he would take a page out of Andy Anderson's book.
Leaving a little skin on the pavement is cool and all, but I've seen him take some pretty major slams.
Mitchie Brusco's only critique seemed pretty spot on, when he pointed out that one of the fun parts of watching Greyson is watching him land and seeing the rollaway.
They cut the roll-aways (and some of the roll-ups) in the video in order to create a sense of speed and energy. Part of the fun of watching Greyson is watching his style, and you don't get to see that in it's full effect when they cut everything early.

I agree. The whole thing looked like an extension of an SLS run, but street footage doesn't give points for tricks performed.
Instead, the medium is more of an art form, and requires style and spectacle to keep the momentum rolling.
