    Thank you Johnny. I just watched this over breakfast with my 5&3 year olds. So inspiring to see and also share with the next generation.

      Same here! I skated for 15 years and if she’d have been skating at the same time, I could’ve spent more time doing something I was actually good at😂

    I'm in my 40's and don't skate anymore, but it was a big part of my life for almost 2 decades, so I like to revisit the community from time to time via youtube. Jonny's videos show up on my feed on occasion with perfect frequency (as the algorithm would have it) and I always watch. He's younger and focuses on the up and coming , but also presents with what I interpret as an appreciation for the previous gens insofar as production. It seems to be filmed, edited and scored in a way that is accessible to skaters of any generation and Jonny is crazy good! Quality.

    Hey jonny I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do man. I am old skater I just started picking it up again. Last summer I watched your how to do a hard flip video and it took me a while to learn. But I finally landed it and now i know again why I love skating so much. I have so much love for skating and you give off the vibe of skaters back in the day. It's the true passion and feel of everything skateboarding is. So thank you man. I'm going to keep skating and doing what I love. I hope to meet you one day and lay down a game of skate. When I get better. Till then keep kicking ass man and thank you again.

    So cool to see skateboarding be at a place like this in 2023. Kids I've never heard of doing stuff I thought was impossible 20 years ago. Girls throwing 720's on vert. So much awesomeness. Japan definitely has a unique skate scene; a lot of the coolest stuff I've seen for a minute has been coming out of Japan.
    Also, was that a crooked to nollie hospital Giger threw so casually? He really is the modern-day Rodney Mullen. I say that as a long-time Mullen fan.

  • @Meet_Me_In_The_Pit

    SO impressive, great to see the parents supporting it too, I hope the world can recognize the skill involved here and make some great events for all the kids skating their hearts out like this. Enough with the toxic bs, time to respect the form.

  • @mattscimeca4288
    @mattscimeca4288 ปีที่แล้ว +24

    the fact that a 12 year old would think that it's a reasonable idea to throw a 360 down that bank is insane to me... these kids are seriously on another level

  • @fhlwrhqrhqfnb
    @fhlwrhqrhqfnb 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In the 90's, the skatepark was a concession made by towns as a desperate attempt to divert kids from drugs and sex during their unsupervised afternoons, evenings, and weekends, while parents worked or recuperated from that work.
    It's unbelievable* to see families just being around each other during their random hangout time, chilling, being there, making sure everyone is happy and safe, and having a great time themselves.
    *Unbelievably healthy.
    Can societies and families be built around health and happiness? Could we do that? I think we could.
    Jonny, thanks for the video!

  • @mclarensaleenf7
    @mclarensaleenf7 ปีที่แล้ว

    It would be awesome if freestyle skating contests still went down. This girl is like Rodney at his age, she’s unbelievably good and may even be the single best female in the world since it’s such a niche discipline. I know there’s been one main male freestyler besides Giger (I think he’s European but can’t remember the name) who has really pushed the limits even higher than Rodney did when there were still contests. There are so many unique trick combos you can come up with that it honestly needs to be its own discipline. Hope to see freestyle come back into more favor (and the Olympics finally having vert).

  • @morgellon7877
    @morgellon7877 ปีที่แล้ว

    What was the trick Yuzuk Ikarin threw over the pq to flat? 8:13 That kid has awesome style and a cool bag of tricks. I thought one of those was a 360 pressure, which is normally a trick I don't think looks good, but he made it look super cool. Unless that was something else.
    Edit: the 360 pressure was the previous time stamp; the question was about the trick at 8:43 How does he make 360 pressures look so cool?
    Holy crap, the one at 11:35 was bonkers. I used to do some similar tricks i didn't know the names for back in the day. I really like that idea of not popping into flips; something different.
