Yesterday ago a tipster sent in the above photo, but our imaging laboratory was closed for renovations and we were unable to verify if it was real or not. Now it's turned up on Reddit, along with a little backstory.
"This photo shot by Allen Ying appears in the third issue of 43 Magazine and the footage will be released some time this month from MandibleClaw. Mandible Claw released a Subway themed edit in 2011, this trick and others will be in the upcoming sequel."
The trick was done at the 145th Street stop in Harlem. And MandibleClaw, who shot it, writes: "We waited till about 5 a.m. to get this trick but it was worth it. I wasn’t sure Koki was going to do it when we went down, but after a few run ups he landed it first try."
Before you try to attempt this, amateur skateboarder, please review our stories on subway fatalities, and revisit the end of Beat Street when the third rail kills off two taggers.
