The era of entire video parts with mind-melting skating on gnarly street terrain-with little to no filler-really took off with Menikmati in 2000. Torey Pudwill introduces a true classic.
Arto was always my fave. I used to watch this on VHS before sessions, like 99-00 era. Arto’s parts in sorry and really sorry absolutely insane! Glad he won skater of the year, arto absolutely killed it.
Arto is legendary, this was one of the most innovative parts ever made. Taking technical tricks to huge obstacles and doing it with robot precision. His part in Sorry a couple of years later was even more polished. Arto is an absolute beast, makes me want to skate everytime!
still today this part, makes me wana skate so hard... arto ripped that shit so hard. the finnish skate king.... was the vid, where salabansi showed his sick skills to... its just an epic vid allround, with the best of the best. at the time
When I was a little kid, just learning about different grinds (basic ones), I thought the krooked grind was the coolest thing in the whole world. Years later, this part came out and was the perfect example of how sick the basic krooked grind is. Every single one in this part is just beautiful.
OMG front board down el toro! so sick! such a true skater right, might not of gotten as recognised as much as all the other skaters but he is one of my favorite! ♥
I remember being so blown away with how sick Arto was and how jampacked it was with heavy tricks. Add that with the song, the way French Fred shot it and chopped it together, just legendary part, brings back so many memories!
definitely history arto is on a different level and always has been i like the technical ability of arto over most any other skater he shows you things on full scale handrails no curbs for arto love how he usually uses less speed and balances more delicately
AL Too bad most of what kids these days are watching is vloggers who skate. And then there 10 parts and 1000 clips out everyday, they don't have time to appreciate.
Arto was one of my favorites growing up. I loved that his sorry part started with 6 clips where he did a trick regular tgan switch. It made me want to get my switch game on point like that
I still remember going to the premier of this. They did like a skatepark premiere tour. No pros came they just showed the video on a big screen. Super cool as a teen to go to.
This is one of my favorite parts in any skate video ever!!! Arto destroys!!! The song is a CKY song!!! I cant remember the name of the song but a friend and I used to jam this song out on guitar and drums. The nostalgia is real!!!!
whe I was young I didn't realize how good arto was, now, several years later I realize even if it is 11 yrs old, still better than a lot of the newest video.
Stephen Imsong They are back. eS has been back for around a year, maybe longer. They have a few models out with limited colorways every season. Some online shops have them (Tactics), but I think eS are mostly sold in "core" skate shops now. Oh yeah, and it's just "team" edition shoes now. No pro models. To my knowledge, they do not have a pro team and do not plan to have a team.
yeah i loved that shoe i had it in white and a little blueish. he wears the koston one alot also! i always used es back in those days with the exeption of marc johnsons emerica shoe i loved that one you know with the big M on the side!
The way he can stand on grinds and slides for so long is just something else. If friction was not a factor he could probably travel round the world on a back lip
One of the greatest parts . Still Y2k was the merge for video quality , tech skating with style and gnarly rails. Just remember being so hyped on that video
All these spots look perfectly built for skateboarding specifically. Are enough civil engineers skateboarding to make the best skateboarding scenarios public, or is it all by chance?
one of the best street skater of all time
He was top notch in his time. Even compared to today I think a lot of his footage holds up.
GOOD COMMENT ❤🎉
Arto was always my fave. I used to watch this on VHS before sessions, like 99-00 era. Arto’s parts in sorry and really sorry absolutely insane! Glad he won skater of the year, arto absolutely killed it.
This part is a masterpiece. Incredible filming, editing and skating. They dont make parts like this anymore
I don't understand how someone can dislike this video part. Fucking classic. Legendary.
I really love how he skate switch
Gotta love that red VHS. first skate video i ever bought. watched this and thought damn, the music behind Arto's part set a standard for timing.
Notice, the whole video was without lyrics, except for the montage park section that had some kind of singing from India....
this was my first skate video too!!!
This part really changed skateboarding.
Patrick Hanlon this and about all of Flip Sorry
i'm so stoked this is up
Same
Arto is fuckin amaizing. Its unbeliavable
What’s up John Hill?!
Made front boards and crooks so coveted by all skaters of that time
Fuckin historic part
yes in fucking deed
I still catch myself whistling this song when I'm fucking around. Great video mane!
i think menikmati is the first skateboarding video i ever saw. it's amazing.always will be.

anything arto does is timeless. i forgot how rad this part was

I think of Arto every year on my birthday...because we have the same birthday
OMG front board down el toro! so sick! such a true skater right, might not of gotten as recognised as much as all the other skaters but he is one of my favorite! ♥
Arto caused a new zeitgeist in skating. Switch, pop, and balance with your body on the line.
My all time fav skater and part. He really raised the bar
Deserves 10m views at least. Epic video and epic skateboarder 🙌
I remember being so blown away with how sick Arto was and how jampacked it was with heavy tricks. Add that with the song, the way French Fred shot it and chopped it together, just legendary part, brings back so many memories!
Hands down the best skater of all times. Without a doubt.
This dudes switch is fucking clean. Everything's clean. Such a good part !
One of my favorite parts ever.
Love the music, and the skating really fits it.
definitely history arto is on a different level and always has been i like the technical ability of arto over most any other skater he shows you things on full scale handrails no curbs for arto love how he usually uses less speed and balances more delicately
El Toro front board!!! 😩😩
+artie lozano Rip El Toro Handrail :'(
Light went out mid slide!
CKY instrumental. Amazing part, still have this on VHS!
I use to rent this vhs every weekend from my local skateshop when i was like 11...the golden era of feel good skateboarding
i still have his thrasher skater of the year award and his shoes... holy hell that es team was so sick
Maybe the greatest team ever and video
quality skateboarding
I was so fucking pumped when I heard he used this song. Foreign Objects was so good, as WAS cKy. This and his Sorry part blew my fucking mind.
Something about this part always gives me shivers. So crazy for the time.
lol, menikmati means enjoy or apreciating in my language
I wonder if there's a modern video part that gets today's kids as pumped as this part got me in my early teens.
AL fuck no, kids today will never have the magic that we got to witness how it was
AL Too bad most of what kids these days are watching is vloggers who skate. And then there 10 parts and 1000 clips out everyday, they don't have time to appreciate.
Nostolgia at its finest!!!
Yup
Yep
2:35 one of the most beautiful bs crooks
Arto was one of my favorites growing up. I loved that his sorry part started with 6 clips where he did a trick regular tgan switch. It made me want to get my switch game on point like that
2:33 Dat crooked
ALLLL THE WAAAAYYYYY!
His nollie heel at 4:59 is the smoothest thing I've ever seen. My VCR had slow motion button on it and I'd watch this over and over in super slow mo.
so sick, watched this part everyday when I used to skate
I skate again now
Hope you're enjoying yourself
I'm not
@@sKyWIperzzz quit again now
I still remember going to the premier of this. They did like a skatepark premiere tour. No pros came they just showed the video on a big screen. Super cool as a teen to go to.
This is one of my favorite parts in any skate video ever!!! Arto destroys!!! The song is a CKY song!!! I cant remember the name of the song but a friend and I used to jam this song out on guitar and drums. The nostalgia is real!!!!
It’s called testing by cky
absolutely classic part with classic music
he was always my favorite skater and I still think this was his best part.
This would still be a gnarly part over ten years later! thats how you know its one of the greatest ever!
This is a template for so many parts today
Could you imagine flying down el Toro backwards? Crazy shit.. He was in my top 3 skaters back when I was a skateboarder.
one of the best parts in a video ever!!!!
My favorite skater of all time!
Im 11 and this is my first time seeing this vid Im just like Torey Pudwill!!!!!!!
Always skated with intense authority. Like every trick is pure commitment
What staircase is that at the end that he f/s boardslide down? It looks familiar and massive lol
El Toro, I don't know if it still exists. Probably not
This part was so ahead of its time. I believe that's the first switch back lip ever done down a handrail.
It wasn't. th-cam.com/video/fzaBUXu2Gd8/w-d-xo.html
@@patrickhanlon932 Well ain't that some shit. You learn something new every day.
1:40 the speed at which he hits that rail is insane!!
took a drive through st-lambert today. it reminded me of days in tha west qc.
That opening Foreign Objects song tho!
Love them back crooks, how the truck flexes around. They look like their about to snap the amount of pressure he puts on them.
When you are this good at switch is it really switch anymore?
Front boardslide at El toro(ender) was so insane for the time...still is
One of my favorite vids of all time with Yeah Right and Baker 3.
whe I was young I didn't realize how good arto was, now, several years later I realize even if it is 11 yrs old, still better than a lot of the newest video.
Still better
Those back crooks are so nice!
Man, I miss my ES'. BRING THEM BACK!!
Stephen Imsong
They are back. eS has been back for around a year, maybe longer. They have a few models out with limited colorways every season. Some online shops have them (Tactics), but I think eS are mostly sold in "core" skate shops now.
Oh yeah, and it's just "team" edition shoes now. No pro models. To my knowledge, they do not have a pro team and do not plan to have a team.
es, my childhood shoe company :(
Yeah. Only brand that really suited me. ES ACCEL FOREVER! ,
That is some skills Arrto, well done! 😮🙏
arto used to be way ahead of his time back then..
I used watch this part on here about a year ago and the audio wasn't synced up properly. Thanks for fixing it!
All time favorite part for me. It changed the way I viewed skating.
yeah i loved that shoe i had it in white and a little blueish. he wears the koston one alot also! i always used es back in those days with the exeption of marc johnsons emerica shoe i loved that one you know with the big M on the side!
Gracias mastro Tatum por enserñarme esta obra de arte
old deron miller riffs and arto. so sick
owned flip really sorry and emerica this is skatboarding watched them over a million times always got me ready to skate
Mind blown!!!
He lands the same every trick it’s unbelievable, it’s like he’s in complete control and there’s an invisible cushion
The way he can stand on grinds and slides for so long is just something else. If friction was not a factor he could probably travel round the world on a back lip
I think this was the first TH-cam video I ever watched
En muistanu et tää oli näin jäätävä!!!!! O ne crookedit hallus!! ;)
Still my all time favorite part. Love Arto.
So cool to see spots from my home
Had those same kostons he's rocking in this video. Epic skating.
Menikmati was the first skate video i ever saw, ill never forget it man. Everybody in that video was so fucking gnarly.
This video had a great squad
This video changed my 12 year old life when I saw it lol
One of the best.
CKY - Testing was the perfect music for this Legendary Part!!
I miss the truely great skate videos like this. since the whole you tube thing came skate videos arn't what they use to be
one of the great skateboarding parts
Love seeing the rando street walkers that stop and watch, having no idea they watched a living legend live
cky-testing song+arto saari video =the best part of him :)
Best Part I Have Ever Seen
thumbs up for the cky- Arto Saari part song!!!
Una de mis partes favoritas de todos los tiempos!
This is probably my favorite skate part of all time. Arto Saari is definitely one of the best ever to touch a board.
Arto Saari deserve much more creds. Hes so fucking good, he skates everything !
My father is a skateboarder and this hipped him up
Menikmati = Enjoying (Indonesian Language)
He's so sick!! Super dope at switch too0
great filming
how good are them old school schemes!
One of the greatest parts . Still Y2k was the merge for video quality , tech skating with style and gnarly rails. Just remember being so hyped on that video
my first favorite part
