Professional skateboarder Manny Santiago also known as Manny Slays All has a pretty confident take on the greatest skate shoes of all time.

And you know what it is? His own signature shoe apparently sits above the competition.

During a conversation with Complex, Matthew Welty asked MSA to name his Mount Rushmore of skateboarding shoes while MSA held his Rad skate shoe.

His picks were the éS Koston 1, Nike SB P Rod 7, etnies Sheckler Marana, and Nike SB Nyjah 2.

But Welty had one question after hearing the list.

"You're not going to put your shoe on the Mount Rushmore?" he asked.

Santiago had a hilarious response.

"Well, my shoe is the mountain. They sit on it. Right?"

He went on to explain that if you peel back the layers, all four shoes are sitting on his mountain, then laughed at his own joke.

It's a pretty creative way to make a case for his signature footwear without even putting it on the list.

While MSA gave credit to four iconic skate shoes, he still found a way to put his own pair above them all.

Apparently, the competition can have its spot on Mount Rushmore. MSA just wants everyone to remember who owns the mountain.
