Brian Bleech Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 this is just stupid! the stuff around 3:10 is just crazy! the mans a legend!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 i f**king love rodney mullen, i haven't actually seen any new footage for ages though, which is a shame, but its also a sign of him being the best skater/freestyler ever becasue he just loves to skate, not because he wants a load of publicity.for me probably top 5 best 'extreme sportsmen' ever and seems like a genuinely nice guy too.you know if this was the olden days, people would be saying jesus has returned, and he's riding a skateboard.

Tony Harrison Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 He is an actual legend, you're right. They had one of his videos playing in a pub once, and I didn't touch my drink the whole time, I was just glued to the screen! That stuff must be unbelievably hard...

manuel Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 Rodney Mullen : Invented the Kickflip ... Then captured on film some of the best sports action of all time (extreme or otherwise)....goes down in history.The definition of dedication and pushing the limits of tech.

Concussion Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 (edited) Heh` Rodney Mullen, the man with the tricks! Good I love this guy, got all his vids..... I even bought a skateboard after watching him. Now used as a base for my PC ! Go Rodney! Edited December 9, 2006 by Concussion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 To be honest, whenever I watch Rodney skate, it just makes me think how crap everyone else is these days! Ok so Ryan Sheckler can land virtually everything he tries but he's only doing the same stuff people have been doing for years. Rodney is THE man and deserves all the respect in the world! For anyone who's never seen an interview with the guy, he's also such an amazing character... really intelligent almost to a fault. Kinda reminds me of Ayrton Senna- very deep guy. Truly amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
