Grant Taylor

Grant Taylor has been a staple in skateboarding for over 20 years now. Grant was sponsored at a young age and began competing in amatuer contests. Grant's father, Thomas, was a former pro himself which helped fuel Grant's natural ability. Grant is part of the generation of skaters that started to shred all terrains at a high level, blending street and park seamlessly. Grant turned pro in 2009 and two years later was granted one of skateboarding's highest honors: Thrasher Skater of the Year. Grant has a longstanding staple pro model for Nike, the GT Blazer Low, an achievement very few have managed. Today, Grant continues to skate at a high level, consistently producing for himself and his sponsors.
