The IASC 2015 Skateboarding Hall of Fame Inductions have been announced and the list is filled with deserving recipients. With the popularity of skateboarding at an all-time high, the majority of the accolades usually received revolve around large sums of money and TV time, so it’s hard to find a definitive appreciation of skateboarding’s pioneers and heroes. There is an honor that is bestowed by a jury of peers that a price tag won’t fit on and this is the coveted Skateboarding Hall Of Fame trophy. This year’s inductees are some of skateboarding’s most innovative, outspoken, stylish, inspiring, ground-breaking and celebrated warriors ever to ride, joining a motley list of previous inductees who not only created but defined modern skateboarding as we know it today.
