One of my favorite videos of all time. I’m right around Paul’s age & it’s crazy looking at it now to think he was living the absolute dream a lot of us had when we were in high school to be in a transworld video, get paid to travel and skate and have koston co-sign your intro lol. Cheers to everyone from this era still skating and making it in life!
It’s 2002, I’m 16 I’d just moved to Puerto Rico. I didn’t know anyone that skated for the first 3-4 months that I moved there but I’ll never forget watching Paul, Mikey and evans part every single day before going skating.
Yeah it was the first ever full skate video I watched; I skated about 4 miles to the skate shop then I randomly picked 'In Bloom' on VHS. I lucked out big time - I remember turning off the lights in the living room before pressing play... very special time... I still listen to all the songs that featured on the video to this day
@@Obez45 yeah I'm glad I was apart of that generation, getting a new skate video and watching it over and over again, I just don't think full length internet videos these days have the same vibe
So special. One of my favorite parts and videos. John Holland really inspired me to be a filmmaker. I was at the In Bloom Premiere on crutches and my Mom gave Jaime Thomas my sponsor me tape. I remember it was at the Ford Theatre in LA. Such an amazing time in skateboarding. Thank You Paul for doing this. Some day if we could trade talents in Heaven It would be a dream come true.
I remember buying this in 9th grade, and it was like $30 for the VHS tape. Save up for a minute! Watched it once, and I just knew I was skating every day forever after that.
Some kid I used to skate with stole my copy of this and Guilty. I'm still looking for him to this day, 15+ years later lol. I only knew him through another guy, but he unfortunately passed away a few years ago. I will get my skate videos back one day.
Everything ins this video is perfect, the song, the editing, the tricks, and i thought paul was a bit much older at this time, damm 16 and already a beast! Gob Bless! P-rod
In Bloom Paul Rodriguez part was a big influence for me as a skater. I used to watch before skate session to motivated my self ! Song and montage was perfect ! Best slate Area !!! #inbloom
One of my favourite P-rod parts. Even though I had been skating for years before In Bloom came out and I had already seen my fair share of skate videos I was impressed by how smooth he was and how effortless he made it look. And it's one of my favourites for this reason. So smooth.
Interesting break down. The Mophono song is one of my favorite skate part songs and I still listen to it 20 years later. It's a trip to learn he didn't pick the song. It just meshed with his part so well. I remember him sticking tricks or landings to the beat.
This and Emerica this is skateboarding were the first 2 full videos I remember watching as a kid, following and copying everything my older brother and his friends did, this part is perfection to me, I can call out the tricks before they happen 😂
I can't believe it's been 21 years...I remember the feeling I got seeing that switch tre over the double set - at the time it was mind blowing an am could do better tricks than pro's.
I remember I always thought that SHS thing on his grip was two flipped and kind of runic styled R's because his last name is Rodriguez, and I wanted to do something like that on my own but my name and initials sucked so it always came out shit lol. Crazy how much I looked up to him as a kid, watched all his parts and tried to do tricks like him, always had éS Accel's and an éS hoodie on. It's crazy hearing him talking about Koston like that and to think that he himself has been "the Koston" to countless of thousands of skaters through the years. It's all just a big cycle, Koston had his own Koston or uh.. whatever. Fuck yeah Paul, you're the best
paul has some of the sharpest recollection iv ever seen! down to his clothes n shit!! that also shows how important and formative those times were for paul. baby hip hop fresh paul to the now full O.L.D terminal grandpa sweater wearing paul lol!
if u look at sunlight @8:39 u can see it's much later in the day when u landed the nollie kickflip, and Beebs landed his nollie heel much earlier that day....if it was back to back it wasn't immediately after...
This video made me start going For shit cuz I was like this kid is 16? I’m 16 wtf!! How tf did he learn all these tricks regular and switch!! Shit blew my mind
@@nedtempleton4873 I think there’s another recent type video that had it. But that you for this, man I think I used to have this 411 best of 4. I remembered that part right when it started. Hell yeah. Thanks man. Took me back.
@@nedtempleton4873 dude!! I think this is it! I was having a debate with a homie of mine and he said the song hasn’t been used. I kept think it was either a girl or chocolate video. But I think this is what I was thinking of. Man, thanks for this bro.
@@artytheonemanparty You're welcome. And it may have been used more than those two video parts I linked to, but I can't remember any more at the moment.
I’ve seen many great skate videos in my time, but this one is just so influential for the time period. It easily sits at the top, just so many priceless memories that come with it, skateboarding on the rise, the tricks, the style, clothes, personalities, music, brands, everything encapsulated in one video. 🥲
Say what SHS is.. don't be shy or making it not about your image nowadays. SHS to me is Senior Highschool I went to but it's SSHS back than. Now it's SHS

One of my favorite skate vids of all time. Every part was insane at the time.

💯✊🏾
this part is so iconic. Out of all his parts over the years this one and forecast are all time favorites.
This was super enjoyable. Paul is such a chill dude
That story about Dustin was the most Dustin story ever 😂
Can see him in bonus footy of Sight Unseen at that spot too
Some kid I used to skate with stole my copy of this and Guilty. I'm still looking for him to this day, 15+ years later lol. I only knew him through another guy, but he unfortunately passed away a few years ago. I will get my skate videos back one day.
I'd love to see Cole on here to talk about his "Ride The Sky" part
Everything ins this video is perfect, the song, the editing, the tricks, and i thought paul was a bit much older at this time, damm 16 and already a beast! Gob Bless! P-rod
always liked how well edited the clip at 2:22 was in terms of skate sounds going with the beat of the song, especially the screech stop at the end.
In Bloom Paul Rodriguez part was a big influence for me as a skater. I used to watch before skate session to motivated my self ! Song and montage was perfect ! Best slate Area !!! #inbloom
THANKS FOR THE AUDIO !
This part and the song and the intro was all perfect. I still have this song on my skate ipod. Again another great insight into your part. Loved it
One of my favourite P-rod parts. Even though I had been skating for years before In Bloom came out and I had already seen my fair share of skate videos I was impressed by how smooth he was and how effortless he made it look. And it's one of my favourites for this reason. So smooth.
Damn this brings back memories. My brother bought this for me. First time I had seen P Rod. Unbelievable part to me.
Interesting break down. The Mophono song is one of my favorite skate part songs and I still listen to it 20 years later. It's a trip to learn he didn't pick the song. It just meshed with his part so well. I remember him sticking tricks or landings to the beat.
Yeah. I bought this on DVD back in the day. Whole thing is golden. Great skate parts.
I met Paul at the In bloom premiere in LA and we took a photo it was super dope. I got one with Elissa steamer too I remember. Need to look for those
The most epic video. I analyzed this video religiously. Memorized every single millimeter of every clip
That whole video is great. Watched it for years
Those EOS shoes from ES skates so good. I remember those were the first shoes my skateshop sponsor gave me.
Love it! Would love to see Cole break down his In Bloom part too. Grew skating the same spots he skated in that part.
Dustin tore that rail up in sight unseen cool backstory thanks Paul
The lineup of that video was insane
This and Emerica this is skateboarding were the first 2 full videos I remember watching as a kid, following and copying everything my older brother and his friends did, this part is perfection to me, I can call out the tricks before they happen 😂
First skate video I watched and it Still is my favorite.
Man him talking about this is awesome that video was stacked with legends to this day
Honestly the coolest thing to me is he bought the car from "Belly". Thats gangsta.
P rod has always been such a crispy clean skater, dedication to getting that perfect piece of footage. Dude.
This is the video that turned me into a life long skater.
I can't believe it's been 21 years...I remember the feeling I got seeing that switch tre over the double set - at the time it was mind blowing an am could do better tricks than pro's.
actually watched it so many times the vhs got fucked up, all time fav paired with dying to live and menikmati.
The switch Tre story is gold. “BIG mistake bro…I’m like 16, I don’t need to warm up…sorry dude!” 😂
Lol I would always try dressing like Paul and Geoff Rowley. Good times
That song was meant to be, still skate to it to this day, gets me hyped asf
First video I ever got! Can’t believe it’s been 21 years
I remember I always thought that SHS thing on his grip was two flipped and kind of runic styled R's because his last name is Rodriguez, and I wanted to do something like that on my own but my name and initials sucked so it always came out shit lol.

It's crazy hearing him talking about Koston like that and to think that he himself has been "the Koston" to countless of thousands of skaters through the years. It's all just a big cycle, Koston had his own Koston or uh.. whatever. Fuck yeah Paul, you're the best
Need to see the rest of the in bloom skaters review this
paul has some of the sharpest recollection iv ever seen! down to his clothes n shit!! that also shows how important and formative those times were for paul. baby hip hop fresh paul to the now full O.L.D terminal grandpa sweater wearing paul lol!
if u look at sunlight @8:39 u can see it's much later in the day when u landed the nollie kickflip, and Beebs landed his nollie heel much earlier that day....if it was back to back it wasn't immediately after...
Have him review his 16 Below part, one of my favorites! Get him to spill the beans on what song he's skating to too!
Shout out to Select Beer Store in Redondo for sponsoring the beer glass shot. Oh, and Paul breaking down his video was dope too...
Dope video! Please get Geoff to do all the 'Sorry" videos. Would be dope
Hesh Paul was steez Af
probably my fav part of all time. music track is the. best
Love these have more skaters review classic parts
This song blends into one one the songs used in this is skateboarding
we got sound here!
If I had that first rail in my area, I would've had fun on it.. nowadays that rail is considered small
This video made me start going
For shit cuz I was like this kid is 16? I’m 16 wtf!! How tf did he learn all these tricks regular and switch!! Shit blew my mind
Awwwww yeah!
I wish all pros would do these commentaries
grew up watching this at my homies pad when we were kids. i was in the 6th grade. still one of my favorite videos
I think I was 14....There was anything more important to me than skateboarding at that time.
NHS was named after Novak, Haut, and Shuirman - the original founders of the surf company that later made Santa Cruz skateboards. Mystery solved.
I named my tattoo shop after this video
The days 😮💨
love ya p-rod 🤙

Does anyone out there know who used Curtis Mayfield’s “move on up” in a video part?
Check out 23:18 of th-cam.com/video/J3RvMC5USg4/w-d-xo.html . I can't remember if anyone else has used it.

Sesh prod is the best! I think a sesh tech skater looks RAD!

When I seen this video. I was 100% on Evan's part.. I thought he would've made it big but never did
Y’all should full screen the video part and corner screen the skater
Atiba hasn't aged a day my mans got good ass genetics

He was crisp but I don't truck with his Paris Hilton vibes.
