Bring Inline skating back! Let them jump the mega ramp too. Would love to see that!
That would be a scene!
Why’d you get rid of inline skating in the x games.. it’s the reason I started rollerblading.
@@matthewpamatian4853 they didnt see money in it anymore
@@matthewpamatian4853 And also, rollerblading started the X-Games. It all started cause the NISS and ASA PRO TOUR inline contests were doing well on ratings on TV, ESPN thought they needed a slice of that market too, and hence the X-Games were born. Would be nice if they put blading back in the event, I´m sure bladers won´t disapoint
Nitrous circus have some inline guys
why people dont think this deserve a spot on the xgames roster is beyond me.
Agreed, I just watched the entire thing and thought to myself how come I’ve never seen this event ?!
Because the fad died out
Just like Street Luge! That used to be a good event i loved and looked forward to in the X-Games
@@MovieTime022 Biker Sherlock FTW.
@@jsbmx2039 the so cal street skating scene to over park and vert the premium got put on rail skating and doing stunts off of roofs. Most aggressive inline skaters didn't want to take the time to train and practice to compete at the highest levels the look at their craft as a way to travel and party
The Yasutoko Brothers are secret characters that require you to complete the game and still use cheat codes to unlock.
Classic X games... The nostalgia.
In rolling ps2 right
Bring inline back !
It is time for Blading's glorious return
The 1080 california roll is still one of the best tricks in extreme sports imo. iThe way he just floats sideways spread out and then suddenly snaps in and makes the spin happen. It is a perfect mix of style and difficulty.
Almost 20 years later and watching the Yasutoko brothers still gives me goosebumps. Actual legends.
same
This was definitely the golden era of action sports.
More of this content please. Blading deserves a place at the table.
I started inline skating purely cause of the yasu brothers. Took me years before i could do a a simple backflip in the vert. Nowadays this isnt a xgames sport anymore, but inlining needed a shitload of efford and guts.
That Viking flip is such a sick trick...just like a big whip in moto I could watch it again and again
But be careful dude only vert aggressive inline skater can do it
Seems like the skateboarding equivalent would be a tweaked out method rodeo flip.
The memories bro.. My love for blading never died man!
It is time for Blading's glorious return
Mine unfortunately died when i grew out of my blades... That might be the reason why it tapered off. Skateboarding is so easy to just pick up and do for anyone. With blades you have to change shoes and you grow out of them pretty quick if you start young. Plus the level of innovation with skating has just been constant while blading kinda hit a ceiling. Eventually it just got stale for fans.
Mine either
@@balloonpoop what a load of bs. We go through skateboards, shoes and clothing. Some shoes didn't last a Month and costed a 100 dollars.
12:27 So sick how Eito uses his legs to create rotation!
I literally gasped.
These are some great childhood memories for me.
seriously they are i was dumbfounded when i saw that this was posted, my dogs got scared when i started screaming at my computer
Bring back inline !!!
Rollerblading is still alive !
This makes me want to get my old blades out for a bit!
Do It 💪
I’d skate with u bro
funny bc your name is Chris Hartley and arguable the best rollerblader of all-time is Chris Haffey. Brink - Soul Skaters!
This NEEEEEDS to come back! There is a beautiful sport with some of the coolest, most accepting people you've ever met in your life waiting to get back in the spotlight and fighting for their chance! Do the right thing ESPN & X-Games !!
I find inline so interesting to watch.
It is time for Blading's glorious return
BRING IT BACK
It is time for Blading's glorious return

Hey, bring inline back!! This was the best of X-Games. A shame that you guys gave up to all the skating lobby.
10:09 That vert run from Takeshi was possibly the sickest i have ever seen
For real absolutely insane
This is so amazing, and to think that Takeshi is still skating on a professional level today is mind blowing. Would be so cool to see the current pros push themselves in an x-games setting.
bought my first pair of inlines as an adult this week and i never knew how awesome it could be! such an incredible sport
The yasutoko bro’s were so gooood. My god!
They still got it too. Only in their 30s
Habeev07 that’s crazy, feels like they’ve been pushing the sport forever. My biggest fear is rollerblading coming back into the spot light only for these guys to be retired.
Takeshi is still active, but Eito stopped the competitions a few years ago 😔.
Yup they were already so good.. I had nothing to teach them as a coach.. Proud of them..arigato
And they're both still KILLING it to this day. Check out Takeshi's street run at fise a few years back and tell me rollerblading ain't cool
How can you have xgames without this, I loved watching this, just imagine what they could do now good God xgames make it happen.
I still miss those inline events.
I love these inline videos. They are so smooth!
YES and these days the game is so advanced. Blading is prime to return. Money is flowing in BIG TIME.
inline on the mega ramp, that could be interesting
Chris haffey got you!
JDPatterson CJ, Abrate & Cudot also 😎
@@freshzinn Jonny Jenson has been putting in some work down under at the megaranch ;)
Chris haffey, dave lang, Roman abrate all could do it no problem an have done it
Watch Dave Lang edit from Mega Ramp. It’s crazy.
I love that ESPN is finally showing rollerblading again!!!!!!!!
They’re doing new competitions??
@@mcanad8203 not xgames.. check out @winterclash and @bladingcup
JC T Sick! Thanks for the info, appreciate you following up!
It is time for Blading's glorious return
Takes 20 years for something to be cool again so it makes theirs a resurgence again
B3 Bikes, Boards, Blades.
XGames B3, Bring Back Blades.
@ESPN Thanks for throwing up some of the strongest vert skaters. These guys still are top of their game!
I forget how much air Takeshi gets on his runs, brings back so many great memories!
The brothers!!!! Total inspiration
Bring rollerblading back to the games!!!!
It is time for Blading's glorious return
YES!
The yasutoko brother's were absolute Titans of their sport. They carried speed and amplitude like nobody else could. I really do miss watching this event, it's a shame that they just disappeared it
Takeshi is still active :D
Who flew higher than these two!!! Bring it back, so amazing
Those brothers are the best on Vert. This was 17 years ago! and look at the height and the tricks they were doing back then. Get blading back.
Blading could be back in the XGames before we know it. XGames YT channel just celebrated Fabiola Da Silva- the greatest female rollerblader ever imo. Blading is making a huge resurgence with the COVID hiatus. All skate companies were sold out of skates. There is a skate shortage. The influx of capital should get things mainstream again. BRING BLADING BACK PLEASE
Amazing!!🎁
is it back?
Wow ! Memories, I remember watching this as a kid
Legends
Thanks for posting this xgames. Really brought back my teenage vibes watching inline on espn like the old days. Still blading til this day, and I gotta say this is gold .
Bring back the unique vert ramps
The Yasutoko brothers were absolute madlads, for any non skater it seems difficult but if you skated you would know what they do is bordering on the impossible. My god how I miss skating, some of the best times of my life for sure.
Yasutoko brothers aggressive inline skate feel the authentic of Jet Set Radio
BRING THIS BACK. PLEASE!
these guys went so much bigger than anyone else. amazing
Really hoping this is a precursor to having blading come back especially with all the people picking it up in 2020
It should. Blading is alive and well. It just needs to be broadcast.
Takeshi’s run is art.
Ah. This is when inline vert was at its best. A couple years back a double backflip was enough to win any event and people were like 'this is peak performance'
Then the Yasutokas showed us how wrong we were
I used to inline alot back in the 90s and early 2000s the yasutoko brothers were my idols so happy to get a nostalgia bomb dropped on me
I see you guys liking comments, bring inline back!!! It's coming back!!!
YES. Bring back the sport that started it all.
remember a couple movies like brink and the one with jack black that had rollerblading. I've tried putting on skates and that's a lot harder than skateboarding. was pretty cool to see some of this back then
Yes g, brink was fire lol
Some girls love ballet, I love aggressive inline skating. If this isn't art, then what is?! Amazing athletes ❤️
Yesssss! 2004 vert, fabiola with the boys? I would also like to see new! Imagine today’s champs on this!! Would be amazing to see! Plus female game is strong now over forty entered winter clash! Fabiola and Jenna are looking to compete too! Imagine!
That 1080 California roll from E.Yasutoko is actually disgusting! How in the world do you learn that?!
I was mind blown, he spun after stalling in the air !! Haha
Yo
it's like he saw awesome tricks in a videogame and decided to do em in real life
It is time for Blading's glorious return
Keep up with those X Games Throwbacks
Thanks for watching!
It is time for Blading's glorious return
Inline skating was the one single sport I used to watch on X Games and for me it was reason enough to love and consider the X games the coolest thing in sports. Do bring it back, guys!
I remember watching this live being mad hype on the yasutoko runs! Takeshi was killin it with the switch ups then chucking that 1440 at only 17yrs old!Timeless!!!
Man yall making me happy panda with all this Inliiine!
Brings back good memories, Yasutoko bros were unstoppable! Big props to all bladers and I hope Aggressive Inline makes a comeback in X-games:- )
X-Games was amazing every summer. Loved watching all the events, Skateboarding, Inline, BMX, Moto.
Watching old throwback X-Games and then found Street Luge! That was an awesome event too.
Eito and Takeshi are Legend vert skaters !!
Thank you X GMAES🙏
Woooo crazy brothers nice tricks👀 👍🏽🤙🏽🤟🏽
If not the x-games aggressive skating should just go to the Olympics they deserve serious recognition.
Yasutoko brothers two of the best action sports athletes of all time no one could or still can't touch them
Thank you uploading this. Amazing time. I love it.
Absolutely amazing! So sad that xgames took inline skating away
Great video! Bring it back!
I love this! I greatly miss it being a feature sport at the X games. Just finished watching the 1999 park competition and it is hard to believe that many people were there to watch, the stands were packed! I miss that vibe. Would love to see you bring this back and see where the sport goes! Thank you!
The Yasutokos are amazing
i started skating inline back in 2002 as a 10 year old, right in the peak!
This was my childhood, my Olympics. I love blading! It's interesting how the announcers had NO VOCABULARY for the grind tricks though.
Should never have been removed from the xgames. Especially with talents like the yasutoko brothers.
Where can we watch current inline contests since xgames no longer hosts them? So cool to watch
Winterclash , Blading Cup , FISE , full streams on YT or FB for example
Join rollerbladingrollerblading on facebook, that will keep you posted, FISE are running an online edit comp in september also. Go Joe! Go CJ!
DONT join rollerbladingrollerblading its the cess pit of rollerblading
@@rajmander1287 Yeah, but it will have pretty much everything posted to it, actually now you mention it, we post all the events in Melbourne Rollerblading, plus Aussie stuff!
Its still on the Asian Xgames and the FISE tour. Watch the FISE on youtube.
Sven and the yasutoko still killing it to this day!!
The Yasutoko Brothers are so inspiring. Their dad has got to be so proud watching them skate!
Inline was kinda sick.
Still is.
It is time for Blading's glorious return
The golden age. Amazing.
I recall seeing this 12:28 when I was younger for the first time and being so blown away by this trick
This was my favorite as a teenager. So sad aggressive inline got pulled from the xgames. Bring it back. Keep inspiring generations to come. It's the right thing.
Please bring this back in the program. Inline is making a uprising 🤘🏼
You know what’s interesting, I really feel they were SO good and set the bar so high that they may have destroyed the sport since most people realized there wasn’t even a point of competing anymore when nobody was going to be able to touch their talent for nearly a decade.
Man this brings me back. So good.
bring rollerblading back the sport has very much evolved since the mid 90s early 00s please at least give it a chance. its 2020 and nostalgia still brings in money.
THERE IS SOOOO MUCH MONEY OUT THERE NOW. Danny Beer who rides for THEM skates is making awesome royalties. Skaters just need a chance for exposure with events... LIKE XGAMES. Razors and USD are doing great things as well. The sport is so much stronger at its core because its mostly OWNED BY BLADERS - FOR BLADERS! The companies now care and with COVID all skate shops sold out worldwide basically. Good luck finding any size 9 or 10 XD. Razors even is making the SHIMA 2's again!!
@@Habeev07 i think the lg event really damaged the image i mean kids beg their parents to buy them like 300 400$ scooters.
Put rollerblading back in games!! Timing is perfect now. The interest is there. Ever since Covid rollerblade sales are through the roof.
10:45 the way he carried that soul grind to the other coping was SICK!!!
Had no idea what that first 1080 california roll was. So sick, he twisted AFTER having no spin momentum!!
Anyone else record this on vhs as a kid? And remember when street luge and sky diving was in the xgames?
Loving these, bring back happy childhood memories.
I forgot how exciting this was to watch. Thank you and more please!
Thanks so much for uploading this!!!
Practically grew up watching these two. Aahhh the memories
Yasutoko Bros for life 🛸
The golden era of x-games. I hope they bring it back somehow one day.
Bmx vert / in-line sk8 the most elegant of extreme sports air comps.. so beautiful to watch and HELLLLLLLAH SCARY at the same time
So good Rollerblading is slowly quietly rising back up !
Jesus... I forgot how exciting the brothers were. They were the only thing keeping my interest long after I switched to the board.
