I've said it before and I'll say it again; The "My War" videos the best skateboarding videos you can find.
You’re not the only one who says that
Damn Right!
They really are tho!!!!
@@jeff7764 Yes he is. You’ve never said it. I’ve never said it. He says it. And he’s right.
It makes it relatable
Best episode so far! And best quote: You don't have to be the most talented skateboarder to do something special!
Underrated
This really was. Great story overall, it had tension, anguish, jeopardy... and a feelgood ending!
Meanwhile he has 3 "my wars"
Straight up
Pop an ollie! Feels amazing.
Gabriel just got me so fired up to crush this spreadsheet I should have sent off hours ago.
FUCK YEAH !! EXCEL !
My War: Excel

The struggle in your head knowing you can do this trick.
Friends backing you, there every second of the way.
The anxiety of thinking someone could snake the trick before you.
Friends right there in celebration as you alone made the trick.
I love skating.
The ground we been there 😤😤😤😤
Couldn't have said it any better myself. 🤟
FUUUUUUKKKK!!😤🤬 He battled another kinker few years back !!!! Savage adrenalin/anxiety mix. All it takes is that one make. 🧠💥❤️
Me who doesn't have friends who skateboard :
Ok
I
Need
Them

Holy shit, I've never seen someone coming out of a board slide with that much speed. I'm sure there's faster ones out there but he is fkn flying out of the last kink when his attempts make it to the bottom.
Catches air coming off the last kink 😱
he thought it was a shitty boardslide but i think that's what ultimately saved him in the end because he was slowly rotating through the entire thing so he didn't have to focus on leaving the rail properly he was just already there. so sick.
He kept falling forward. on the make the board looks like it's just trying to shoot out from under him..crazy. he said he was too exhausted to bail
Check out Trainwrecks part in IN BLOOM. He Kickflip front boards a big rail while going 80 miles an hr! Its the ender to his part. You canT see how fast hes actually going cus of vid quality but I had the VHS and was always like wtf why does he need that much speed?!?! and for such a gnarly trick????? czcams.com/video/KsWEbp0gkPU/video.html
That was a combo... boardslide to rail kiss. I'm thinking thats why he had so much trouble with it as he'd have to go airborne to catch the slide on the last kink. Literally flying for a second.
This is a gnarly one. That was insane. "You don't have to be talented to make it happen" Straight up Rock Lee energy
Sickest boardslide ever glad the other dude didn’t bite his shit 🙌
Рнопе тнгош
1кг!?
😭👏🤗
I bite my turds all the time, usually after a Denver omelette
facts tho maybe they just "said" it to get him going?
@@turtlekappa7141 nah I’d really hope not, that certain situation puts so much pressure on you mentally
@@chickenbiscuitbabyyewww9580 i want too do that skateboarding ?. .
I dont even skate anymore but man I still love watching these
why not? skate till your fuckin legs fall off
Why not?
I'm a simple man!! Thrasher uploads a My War? I fucking CLIIIIICK.
I remember watching Damn it All and when i saw this trick, i was with a friend and he said out "thats impossible...go back" because he knows this place (its not even a spot). We musta watched Gabriel's ender like 20 times in a row, no cap. The commitment of this dude to land this, 40 hours of eating shit over and over, respect 4ever. Keep this series comin Trasher.
Those are the best moments when watching skate videos with mates. Asking them to rewind something because it was so mind blowing it didn’t register properly
Gabriel doesn’t get enough recognition that he deserves.. His parts are crazy and he goes big!
Omgggg thrasher plsss do more of these!!
They had A whole series for year's.
It's up to how many skater's have raw My War Video's!
YOU can go to heaven NO MATTER WHAT YOU’VE DONE!
(Here’s how!): When a person first becomes a Christian, their entire past is automatically erased and completely forgiven by God! Simple. Yes, You heard that correctly, you will literally NOT be in trouble for a single you did in before becoming a Christian *NO MATTER HOW BAD*. (This includes crime, etc.)
So, What do you have to do in order for Jesus to clear your record? All you have to do is believe that Jesus was real, turn from your wrong doings, and start living your life by the Bible! That’s it! So yes, this is a get out of jail free card, Even robbers, gangsters, etc can make it to heaven if they turn their life around and follow Jesus!
(Mark 3:28)- “I tell you the truth, ANY sin can be forgiven.” (Except for blasphemy)
(Acts 3:19)- “Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away.”
holy shit. I totally smiled when landed it. Best "My War" episode ever.
For anyone who’s ever boardslid or has tried to boardslide a thin rail like that, let alone a kinked one, knows just how hard it is. That is one gnarly boardslide.
Boardslides on kinked rails are always fucked. I've been thrown back on a triple kink boardslide rail on the ground at a skatepark that really shook me. I got some minor whiplash from it. I can't imagine taking it to an actual set with stairs.
I'm not even a skateboarder and I will never not watch a My War video. They're the best thing on CZcams.
Dude… I may be a softy… But these my wars are the best, they always bring tears to my eyes. You see the whole battle, you see the struggle, you see the determination, the whole story, and then you get to see the pinnacle moment of why they kept going at it, the expression and emotion on all these skaters faces is literally priceless. Makes me feel like I was there with them cheering them on! Congratulations, that’s the best feeling! And you will always have visual documentation to prove it! Nothing better :-)
Minus Jamie Foy. Jamie's blessed.
I believe this is his second my war 🔥
A do or die skater for sure
The best part about “My War” is watching them scream and fight through literal blood, sweat, and tears all to finally land it and shrug it off in disbelief
So much admiration for all the men at War with these badass tricks. There’s something about doing something impossible that keeps us humans coming back for more.
THIS is skateboarding. The friends, the danger the make. 🤘
Powerfully exceptional production lads, thank you, the deathbed visions part is true, mine will be the abnormally perfect and extra-popped tre flip i did on flat at my favourite spot that one time.
I love this era of Zero. Super gnarly, actual underdogs. Most of them probably have to work jobs, but still produce video parts like this. Fuck yeah
Jamie should pay them more he has more than enough to do so
This is the absolute best series by far. THIS is what skateboarding is all about. Even if your war is on a much smaller scale, you can relate to what this man went through and experienced
Skateboarders are so absurdly, wonderfully tenacious. 40 hours of getting wrecked for 3 seconds of footage. I salute you.
Never giving up is one of many things skateboarding gave me and you can apply that determination into every day life and many things. I maybe tired, hurting, bruised, bleeding, losing, but one thing I know for sure I ain't giving up I'm gonna keep going no matter what it is!! We all have that in us you just need to find it and skateboarding definitely brings that out of you.
I've never clicked on anything so fast in my life. ANOTHER Gabbers My War... the only man to have two to his name. Fukken legend!
Don't wanna be that guy, but Joslin also has 2.
@@dovel9149 Oh shit, you're right. Davis gap and the euro stairs. Good reminder. Welp, he's tied then, but Gabbers works soooo hard for his rail tricks - his wars are on another level imo.
@@technodrome Yeah the man is insane. I cannot understand how any human being can have so much willpower to sustain going back 9, 10 times and keep trying and trying until he gets it and somehow it looks like he did it easily at the end...
That was the best board Slide I have seen in my life.👍
Absolutely the greatest feeling in the world. I can't imagine the physical and emotional tension that would build up after weeks of trying the same trick, but the release and elation when you finally land something like that is very unique to "extreme athletes". Whether it's a skateboard, BMX or anything else. We all know that feeling and keep chasing it.
I don't skate but love these videos so much. I find the mental/physical battle they face inspiring!.
The best MyWar Ever!! Dude Sacrificed his hair & then his collarbone for this!!! Also people probably died when that structure collapsed without that pillar!!
"My war" is the most excited skateboarding videos👍👋
The fact that Gabbers had 2 parts in my war lets you know that this guy is the epitome of skating.
Been to this rail back in the day. I remember seeing it in the Plan B Virtual Reality video and was like “who in their right mind would ever go for that…then I saw it in person and said to myself out loud, WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD EVER GO FOR THAT?!”…well, here we are boys and girls.😤
Amen. Danny Way and Pat Duffy were 100% trailblazers. Took nearly 30 years for someone to nail it down. Unreal.
The first video i've ever yelled "Fuck yeah!!" at the screen, when he made it. That was one of the gnarliest things i've ever seen on a skateboard. Kudos, man.
I cheer for these dudes all the time. Kinda how football fans yell at the tv, I understand.
Crazy how far Gabbers has come... I had the pleasure of growing up with Gavin in Tasmania... I remember when all he could do was heel flips, noseslides and boardslides.. Spent many weekends and days teaching each other and pushing each other. After a few years watching him grow in confidence and style it was obvious he was gonna be a force to be reckoned with on a plank. Blows my mind if I stuck with skating this is where I'd be. Well deserved Gabbers
by far one of the gnarliest My Wars. What a fucking legend.
Probably one of the gnarliest My Wars ever
Gabriel Summers is the definition of hard work paying off over natural talent. The man fought for his. Respects ✊
That boardslide.. definitely best 1 everrrrrrrrrrr. I've watched this 4 times. I watch it again bout a month. Gratsi""" Gabe 💯💯💯💪💪💪💪👍👍💰💰💰🔨🔨🔨⚒️⚒️⚒️🚬
i dont even know some of these guys in these my war videos, but i swear i cry every single time.
Skateboarding is the most beautiful, loving, creative sport. I haven't been in a board in 15yrs but these videos being me back. Those feelings when you hit something in front of your mates is better than everything
This episode was particularly badass. Best My War I think thus far.
That flip in the beginning was gnarly 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Love watching my war please keep making them
This is my favorite of all the my wars, super gnarly
Best series ever- the storytelling is always top notch.
These My War videos are so inspiring bc the pure determination to succeed is always there. Also the level of joy that everyone feels once the trick is accomplished is just so awesome to see. This has to be my favorite playlist on the thrasher yt channel.
this is by far the coolest series on youtube.
can't get enough!
I always get taken by surprise when I get super stoked on this series it’s like I forget how motivational these are until I’m in that moment where I need it the most
i literally just showed my friends who arent into skating his damn it all video part like 2 days ago cause i was blown away by it and how little coverage it seemed to get. Then this comes out
the universe works in mysterious ways
This my be my all time favorite video. Not just in the "My War" series, but on the whole of youtube. I swear... This is extremely deep and inspiring. All the suffering is worth it for the thing you want most. God bless skateboarding. God bless skateboarders. May steel knobs never stand in the way of you and your dreams.
Best feeling hands down
I almost cried watching this very touching seeing how determined this guy is
I love the "My War" edits. To see how much effort and selfhate goes into one trick shows so much more than a whole video part.
My war is such an awesome segment. Keep ‘em coming please. 🤘🏾😆🤘🏾
So good to see gabbers getting the recognition he deserves, I remember him crushing crazy rails in slam magazine many years ago
Both this dude's my wars are gnarly and shows how damn stubborn as persistent he is. He's that blue collar skater.
This is 100% the best series on thrasher
So inspiring. This is what skateboarding is all about!
The harder the challenge the greater the feeling of accomplishment once it’s done.
Ohhhh mannn this is one of the best my wars! Such a battle, good friends, and competition!!!
Awesome episode. The commitment to be able to keep throwing himself into it after taking so many slams is admirable
So well spoken. Shout out to Gabriel
Can’t help but to root for dudes like this that understand their talent level and are accepting of it. Amazing My War.!
Thrasher is killing it with this my war vibe videos. We all wanna know the struggle and much respect for all these skaters.
love the whole team are like limping to congratulate him... gnarly crew of vets
Yes gabeee! One of my favorites since a long time
Been waiting for a new my war for awhile now and gabbers doing another giant rail is the greatest gift imaginable
the airtime while entering the last segment of rail while twisting his shoulders to hop out on the landing.. wow. such a subtle technicality you´d only get by practicing that totally mental scenario over and over. Sick!
This is a fucking awesome My War!! Great job with this edit. You can feel the struggle, the pain and the joy! Gabriel Summers has a fan for life now, too!
Best episode so far so much MOTIVATION
This is just insane and absolutely awesome. Not just an insane trick but a very very interesting story of triumph. I absolutely love this. When he said, "these kids, they don't care", I felt that heat and I understand, it was WAR and VICTORY!
An awesome tale of a worthy war
Gabbers is a straight up legend! Commitment personified
I'm 51, been around the scene since '76. Never have I seen such a sick, gnarly slide.
That euphoric smile at the end is crazy dope !
Insane boardslide & my war! Really captures the dedication in skateboarding!
This man has two my wars under his belt and prob some of the gnarliest!!!! Gawd damn that was so sick!!!
That comment about the final make. “not getting into a good slide and feeling it, but kept sliding sounds awesome”. Maybe not getting a comfortable slide was helpful on top of the motivation 💯🙌🏽
Gaberz is one hard working dude. Second My War? And as gnarly as a first one with that 5050 in Australia? My god..
Also him trying that gap to crooked on the Milton rail and breaking his neck might be the scariest and worst bail I’ve seen a skater take
Holy shit. I forgot about the Australian one! That one is outrageous.
First the war to make me tear up. I love skateboarding
We need more of these
The amount of speed getting built up by the end of the slide is just absurd... to keep balance through a mach 2 kink is insane 👏👏
Ayyy sick edit thanks for using our music! 🚀
This is the feeling we all chase for 🤙🏼 loved this one.
This is probably the craziest “my war” vid
Love the struggle and the determination. Great f'n episode
I get so excited when a new my war video is made
So humble !!! Hit that thing so hard ! Very special moments in skateboarding!
Love it when dude says: "these kids dont give a f-.. care about that" when he was talking about the kids trying to take the trick from Gabriel. It's true, like nothing is sacred nowadays and people will snake each other out of everything. Its crazy.
"take the trick from Gabriel" ... it's not "your trick" until you land it
So inspiring man! What a knarly rail slide.. Nailed it. Well deserved. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤟🏼
That was the most sketchiest rail, that boardslide is unreal and other boardslides might be longer but THAT rail, that is in my opinion the most crazy boardslide I have seen. He talks about that feeling you get, all skaters know that feeling of trying something so many times, and then somehow it just happens, like perfectly, and it is the best feeling in the world.
Amazing dedication. Super inspiring!
Best series on CZcams
I love this. I know the feeling he’s talking about. I only had it once, in one day I jumped down the macba 3 over a hundred times trying to bs360 it. And when I landed it, it was the pinnacle of “utopia”. And that was already 5 years ago
This was absolutely amazing
Hell yeah dude! Fave part from that video! 🔥
That was “Locked Down!”
come on Gabe
That was soooo dam sweet like you just dropped into the rail🤯
You the man ! 👊… also, giving up on your phone to be there for the bro - that’s love
I'm crying happy tears right now
I love this series
