Even in slow motion, he's so fast and smooth you just HAVE to rewind and watch that trick again.

Rodney Mullen Rocks

[EDIT: I just watched it again. I don't know what to say...]

that's some sick ass shit...I've often wondered if I'd ever reach a level of mastery at any one thing to the level that these masters have attained...very inspiring...thanks.

amazing how the sport has evolved - back in the 80s, the pros would do the same tricks standing still, and everyone thought it was the shit - this guy does it all rolling!

If you think that's good - you haven't seen ME skate!

I'm dramatically worse.

But serious, that is sick, sick, sick!

No shit, he was at the top of his game when I STARTED skating 12 years ago. I've long since stopped, and he's just gotten better. Absolutely inspiring.

Rodney is THE MAN. Makes me want to dig up my VHS copy of Ban This.
Speaking of... anyone remeber this guy. I love how he always skated in jeans.

Rodney Mullen is the sickest man...Most people don't even know that he invented almost every flatground trick, ever...things we all take for granted-the basic ollie, kickflip, etc...
total innovator.
