Greg Hunt is a skateboarder, filmmaker, and photographer whose work helped shape modern skateboarding culture. Raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, he began skating young and became part of a strong Midwest scene before traveling to California as a teenager. That trip led him to move to San Francisco shortly after turning eighteen, where he skated at Embarcadero (Justin Herman Plaza) and nearby spots during a pivotal era of street skating. Known for precise ledge skating and thoughtful trick selection, Hunt rode for Real and later Stereo, appearing in influential videos like "A Visual Sound" and "Tincan Folklore".
As his interests evolved, Hunt shifted from skating to documenting skateboarding. He learned filmmaking through early projects before directing landmark videos including "The DC Video", featuring Danny Way’s groundbreaking megaramp sequence, and Alien Workshop's "Mind Field". His work became known for balancing technical progression with emotion and scale. Alongside filmmaking, Hunt earned respect as a skate photographer, with imagery widely published in magazines and exhibitions.
