Bryce Kanights

Bryce Kanights is an American photographer and former professional skateboarder who is internationally recognized for his photographs of skateboarding. He grew up in San Francisco, California, photographing and skateboarding throughout the city, and started taking his first photographs as a teenager while skating there. He was the first skateboarder to be sponsored by Billabong but earned very little from the sponsorship, and photography remained his main source of income. He worked for Thrasher for many years, and the article records his induction into the Skateboarding Hall of Fame in 2026. It gives no birth date and no competition results, so those facts are left open here rather than guessed.
