Chris Joslin's 360 Flips El Toro: Behind One of Skateboarding’s Biggest Moments

Somewhere between 30-45 people showed up on the day Chris Joslin 360-flipped El Toro. It took the man about 20 minutes to handle his unsettled business with the infamous 20-stair. The celebration with family and friends was special.

Joslin describes what was going through his head just before, the moments right after and everything that quickly followed, like the Thrasher cover and his run for SOTY.

“If you try to do the best you can at what you’re doing, you just might push the limits of the sport entirely. That’s what happened to me.” —Chris Joslin

A few others who witnessed the day had a few things to say, as well.
