Nyjah Huston Talks About SOTY 2022
Nyjah Huston has only good things to say about his rivals for the 2022 SOTY.
In the ONSTIX Episode 108 streamed on Thrasher’s Twitch channel, Nyjah described the 2022 SOTY Tyshawn Jones as the “King of Pops” for “skating over anything and everything possible.”
He also said that Louie Lopez is just straight-up creative and had a good chance of getting SOTY for many years now.
He also commended TFunk’s latest video part.
Nyjah said in the interview that he watches almost every video that Thrasher posts, even those names he hadn’t heard of.
I love watching everyone’s skating because everyone skates differently and that’s what beautiful about what we do.
