Sometimes you just have a good year and 2000 was it for Koston. Consider his World Championship win at the Monster Mastership in Germany, his wins at the X Games and Gravity Games, his epic part in the award winning Es video, Menikmati, and his Skateboarder of the Year award (handed out April 2001).

Quote:
"The progression of skateboarding seems to be getting more technical with a flip into a slide then a flip back out as well as going down bigger rails and down more stairs. I like to do all that stuff, especially when it feels good. I don't stick myself into one type of style, I would get bored with that."
