What a great time to a been alive

Forgot how absolutely insane those skaters were back in the day. The pioneers, the original goats. This will never stop being insanely impressive.

I love this little statement I found in an article: "If you ask a random person on the street who the greatest skateboarder of all-time is the answer you’re most likely going to get is ‘Tony Hawk.’ But if you ask Tony Hawk, or many of the OGs of skating, who the greatest skater of all time is the answer you’re almost certainly going to get is ‘Rodney Mullen.’"

i know i saw this not long after it happened, but i didn't notice until now how he was synching his moves with the music at the beginning, that's pretty cool

It's a rarity you see someone clearly decades ahead of their time with talent, mind and everything. Rodney was that for skateboarding, quite literally decades ahead of his time.

Board concave left the chat:

The GOAT!

Holy cow!

Wow

those converse! I am in love

Sick

This dude invented skating

This is it. The apex of cool 😎

WHAT !!!!! … how good is he 🤷‍♂️

No feet off the board is the most damn impressive feat of this performance. Genius

I was 2 then I’m 40 now. My mind is still blown watching him

I've never saw maneuvers like that! This guy was awesome

One of my favorites Freestylers of all times !

Crazy hard 😮😮

Thats art

The fluid STYLE. Even when he didn't stick it, he was an acrobat and gymnast while recovering from it. One of a kind.

That’s a wide freestyle board

Dude is a legend

Rodney mullen is fucking nuts. What do you mean he's doing double flips and nollie 360 in 1986?

This is insane

Thats magic..

Man’s a machine, pretty sure no one could do what he’s done ever and humble.

so crazy man how he not take his feet off the board the entire run??

An undisputed legend. The first time I saw him in action, my jaw dropped.

You absolutely killed it sir

This guy is or was simply amazing!

This man is a Legend for me

This is documented proof that whatever deal Rodney made with the devil to do what he does was made before 1986. It's absurd how good he was.

In that couple of minutes he’d invented 20 plus tricks, between him and TonyHawk they’re the best that’s ever lived.

Without question the Best Ever.

Dude is so rad

Good job. It was an excellent ride.

🐐

Dude this guy is a top athlete in 2024

This man is the god of skateboarding

I was 14 here and the weird thing is Rodney didn't get no where the respect he does today because everyone hated freestyle and you would get made fun off doing freestyle tricks plus nobody knew he invented almost every trick we were doing street skateboarding, everyone knew he was the one and only king of freestyle but most street skaters didn't even try most of his tricks until Rodney switched to street skating.

Defintion of pioneer

Sadly as street skaters in the 80's we had no real concept of where half our tricks came from and used to laugh freetstyle skating, skip their vid parts etc. but damn we weren't busting out ollie impossibles like that until years later.

Bro wtf how can you be that good

The best skateur for me... it's a god

Not even a flat skateboard with barely any pop held him back.

Today you see guys on youtube trying a couple of the tricks rodney pulled of for like a 100 times, until they nail it a single time for video. But rodney did all this in sequence with just on or two blunders... Has there every anyone become that good? I don't mean able to do all those tricks, but do them all in sequence with such security?

I'd like to see the runner up's run just for comparison.

I love his freestyle, but I’m glad Ternasky talked him into skating street.

This is what I’m talking about…
