Montaj

About.com Rating four out of Five

By Jay DiMartino, About.com

When next year's new schoolers show up to class, this guy will be the principal.
"Extreme" is a word we've heard way too much lately, but it's a word that describes Taj Burrow. This Aussie is extremely creative and extremely air-borne. While his unflinching and sometimes unexpected approach to maneuvers is mind-blowing,it is Taj Burrow's aerial savvy that sets him apart from the rest. In "Montaj", he launches so high that you may wonder if he's wearing straps. No dice. If you are a beginner, watch his weighted front foot and low center of gravity, these are the secrets to his success. Keeping low and centered keeps Burrow stuck on his board even in the deadly sandpits of his homebreak in Australia. For state-of -the-art shredding and pure aerial overload, this is one of the best videos of the last few years. The music is pretty hollow and trendy, but it doesn't hurt the power of Burrow's message: the future is now.
