This was like watching a dozen “My War” episodes.
Awesome.
He skates the rails we all look at and say imagine if someone actually skated that
You know its gnarly when Milton is cleaning the spot for a trick
Alexandre Meyers Is Milton the maintenance man? It’s nice to see he‘s cool with people skateboarding.
@@DFunct905 milton martinez
milton goes full fucking speed through almost anything. seeing him cleaning it really says something. absolutely insane
Imagine waking up and being Kevin Baekkel's knees knowing what you were in for each day,
"Aaaaaaaahhhhh maaaaaaaan"
The guy is amazing, not trying to be a dick tho i noticed he doesn't flip down any stairs like at all
@@acutecloudd7970 every skater has their strength and weaknesses
@@user-lp7cf9wq5x Yeah that's true! I love seeing flip tricks down stuff personally
This dude is epic-level
So many of these spots are sketch and he still wrecks them
I love the cameraman trying to cheer him. You all alone with the skater, he just wants to give up, but you try to cheer him. You guys play a big part in keeping their moral until they land the trick. I salute you o7
Francis Pilon it’s a tough job to know when to encourage, but also when to throw in the towel. I like to think that filmers who don’t care about people’s health get a bad rep, but I don’t honestly know.
@@DFunct905 filming with the same guy for a long time (like in this video) builds you a pretty tight relation, definitely dont want to push him into an injury.
Francis Pilon I’d have to film ledge skating because I think everything Kevin skated is too dangerous. After the first bail I’d have told him he’s crazy and that I refuse to film his suicide.
wish my friends where like that, when i get angry trying something that scares me, they only yell at me LOL
@@DFunct905 dude like that bs360 he came close to falling down a few times.
"I hate stairs" - fs 50s the craziest, crustiest stairs. best rough cut in a while
I love how when he gets into those long frontside boardslides, you can tell he doesn't even know if he's going to pop out regular or to fakie, just figures it out as he comes off
Ben true
How it goes! A makes a make
The ender is at my school, Lewis and Clark College in Portland. I've always seen that rail and imagined someone skating it but concluded that it would be impossible. Glad Kevin proved me wrong.
Ikr we all have our local area insane spots and one day may they be shredded. Good job on college too mboy
@@Theeosees 16 stair at my high school was always too crazy to imagine someone hitting and then saw a clip of a 15 year old ollie it first try lmfao
@@gutwounds damn yeah Charleston has some spots that are untouched. No Hills here so it's less popular but it has some cool and very untouched spots
@@Theeosees my high school has been hit up by danny way in '97 he used to shred the 7 and 8 stair that i used to to skate lol, also riley hawk and most of the baker crew will skate it too. My city is right in between the two cities where skateboarding developed
Every single trick he does could be an ender for a video, by far my favorite skater to watch......crazy Viking mofo
Same thought of mine. Everything is bangers.
It's kind of amazing to know this is my cousin's son. 10 years ago I just thought he was another guy with the same last name as me. but to find out I was actually related with him is fun as hell. Only met his father once. Never him. Kind of proud of this dude.
16:09 I forgot about the lady who couldn't handle the gnar
😱
This part is amazing, Bækkel is an absolute monster. Now, someone get him some physio or get his leg checked out, he's limping through like 50% of these clips!
Worker: Do you want us to skate-stop this new rail we put in?
Council: Nah, no one would be crazy enough to try skating it
Kevin Baekkel: Hold my monster...
Classic powerhouse skating full of go big or go home full senders. Gotta love skaters who go fast af the energy is refreshing.
17:04 that short of a kink + the angle + the length of that rail = skill...wow
i love how at 7:40 the filmer kind of tells him to chill out when he’s getting heated. I love skating with those kind of people. “Dont worry bro get another try, u got it”
Norwegian black metal Ben Gilley.
this guys’ skating excites me and stresses me out simultaneously
I like how he gets so angry and frustrated but remains calm, not focusing or throwing boards
SOTY nominee? I would say, “yes”.
Brandon Amsberg he was a nominee in 2017
One word for his part insane! Goes so big and rips with so much steez. That beginning clip was hilarious, that smith was so dope on the first handrail @1:11 is how you start a part.
This kid is incredible
How easy he makes it look is amazing!
Saw the thumbnail, watched the video, was not disappointed. What a legend
This dude must receive SOTY + biggest balls of the year. What a badass!
At first, i thought the priest was blessing/cursing the rail!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He was trying to take his board to lure in children to rape in the butthole.
@@J.G.Wentworth69420 are u okay?
@@motherohmy Absolutely. I don't live my life worshipping a false idol and diddling kids.
@@J.G.Wentworth69420 ok
@M Deckers Are you a priest?
I love this man! You have the power, and you ride the hell every day! Congratulations mean, you are the best skater around the world!.
Literally does not get better than this
I haven’t said this in over a decade but.......gnarly.
Really enjoyed this part all bangers 🌙
I didn’t plan on actually watching this video all the way threw but the passion this man puts into his skating it’s hard not to get sucked in dudes a fuckin monster
The best part is the old lady reaction at 16:10. Its even better that he landed that one.
He has that old school approach of aggressive/ fast skateboarding but with semi modern clean style.
Every generation has clean skating, what are you talking about?
What r u even talking about
I think that the old 80s guys who skated really aggressive were more rough around the edges. I think there's a more particular way tricks are generally executed these days. I think Kevin has a sick combination of both. Not to worry if you disagree.
13:21....i mean come on...how is it real.
It’s a 50 50. Lol nothing too hard
@@sbe0001 aight buddy ima need to see some clips if you're gonna say that 5050ing a hundred foot handrail is "nothing too hard"
Simple perfect mind demonstration of a great skater ..! Keep that energy growing Kevin you're the best...!!!!
Half way thru I started getting scared of what the ender would be. And I kept checking the time left thinking "ohh snap! That was it for sure". Best part I've seen in a loonngg time. Better than Mark S's part in my opinion. Wayy gnarlier.
Claude Massey Consulting its a different type of skating. I wouldn’t say either is better, but I wouldn’t disagree.
That drop from the fence down the embankment is nuts! Probably the craziest thing I seen in awhile.
I can watch this all day long, rail again & again
Love how Kevin rips his tricks at super speed, dudes a full blown power house ! Tears up everything Monster Mode !
Half of this part looks like he has a hurt knee or ankle.
Or finger or arm
Came to say this. Makes everything ever gnarlier. So much respect for that dude.
God damn this guys crazy. everything in here, but especially the 5-o on a alien pyramid + the ramp- to -ramp board stall transfer got me stoked.
The "fightin' priest" clip is the best clip I've ever watched. Can't stop laughin.
You know your gnarly when Milton Martinez is your broom man. No joke,
Priest vs skater fights are one of my guilty pleasures.
Priests vs kiddie butts are priests guilty pleasures
So good I had to watch it twice
CONGRATS FOR BEING THE COOLEST/BEST SKATER EVER (IN MY OPINION)
i don't think it can get much more badass than this. holy shit...
Helvete an Slayer tshirts? my new favourite skater, hes a beast!!!
that 50-50 grind has to have beaten the longest 50-50 WR
I still love this part
That moment when you realize you've been to and skated some of these places. Helsinki, yesss
I watched every clip like 10+ times.! Now one of my favorite skaters.! So gnarly.!
omg john cardinal jr so sick
I can watch this all day. Raw ftw
one of the best front boardslides to ever be done
was waiting for it since the part came out
5:21 his wheels sound so square lol, so much power sliding at 80mph
16:09 check the lady in the back lmao
She wants a glimpse of the brutally honest skateboarding ♥️🤘
It’s the lady from It Follows
I also like how he lands that trick right on worst possible patch, like he was aiming for it!
He's a crowd pleaser. I love clips where reg citizens just witness some real raw man power lmfao
that fucking 360 ollie and then rolling down that steep monster is pretty crazy
Holy shit he's a fucking beast, and also : funniest rought cut I've seen so far :) positive energy right there!
I'm out of the loop, this dude is a fucking MONSTER! The whole damn part is nothin but banger after banger!
That was fuckin' gnarly. Great video Bro. Thanks Thrasher!
Fuck this is some of the gnarliest street shit i've seen in a long time.
Parts like that are sooo much better than watching dozens of 2 second clips for 5 minutes with shitty music.
Btw crazy skating!!!!!!!
It’s almost like he was pumping down those bumps after that crook at 3:22. Fucking insane
This dude is so good
Matosinhos my hometown. Great vid. ,🙏
what a gnarly dude - insane !! what an awesome video !!
what a freak, him and milton are from another planet
16:09 the lady in the back lol
Hoooly, gonna save this for the evening
What a beast, only bangers
Those front boardslides were fucking crazy.
that front board to fakie on that bump to fat ass white rail was hella gnarkillz mane!!! 5:40
Never gives up. Bra jobba!
One thing you take for granted as a young skateboarder is your incredible fitness and physique. It's such an ignored part of skateboarding as skaters are so low key and un jock like in this respect. But this dude made me think about that. Skaters are supreme athletic machines. I miss being a 21 year old skateboarder. Lol.
He is every pro skater wrapped up into one fucking bad ass Norwegian killer. The best. SOTY
The back 360 into the bank thing was madness
Best skate video
I just wanna be one of his homies to watch this shit go down.
I’d be so hype on the sessions
12:41 when you went to go get cereal and then found out there was no milk in the fridge
Incredible part
22:06 he saw death !!!
Yeah that was terrifying
Also 48 dislikes? From who? The Priest?
I cannot believe what I have just seen. This guyyyyyyyyy !!!
Well that's an intro and a half right there 🤣
Typical deranged kiddie diddling priest.
How gnarly was that...
What a beast...
Skating sure looks fun
Got scared for him when he did the 5-0 in the beginning
Big nvm saw the 5-0 after the 50
Definitely SOTY material. So many of these spots are sketchy as hell. Not only having the balls to try but succeed! That backside 360 Ollie onto that ledge facing sudden death if he fell had me cringing. Wowzers. Big ups to you brother!
So wild! i love this guy..., never seen before ...
That last 50/50 was outta this world!. Kevin your too hard on your self man lol.
Over the top. Good watch. Solid
I'll be back soon
Must be an amazing feeling landing some of those hella long boardslides.
23:50 "ojalá wacho. Re salado" ??? o tengo el oído en el culo? jajaja
This is some good dad cam
Cirrhosis Drinking Game:
Take a shot every time he says "dude".
Okay are we just gonna ignore the skier just cruising in the street?
Well Kev, you got my vote
How has he not been SOTY
