    What a beautiful video, thanks, Jonny. As you mentioned, failure is a part of life and allows us the opportunity to learn from our mistakes. While perhaps I did not learn this from skating, it was definitely reinforced during my many years of kicking and pushing.

    Unfortunately there is still a generation that was programmed to see skateboarders as punks and criminals. I'm old enough to be in the first skateboarding generation (hint, I met Rodney in Santa Cruz when I was 13 and he was still a teenager), so we are nearing the end of the "skateboarding is a crime" generation being a problem.

      Big Brother and Jackass and that whole era turned me off skating even as a skater myself. So bro'd out and obnoxious. Skating getting famous for really toxic stuff. I love that skateboarding is becoming more positive and welcoming again, like Jonny, just all good vibes. Andy Anderson, so chill, such an incredible skater, but so humble, love that vid of Nicole Hause taking him to school on backside 180 airs...Love everything about Krux..Good times

This motivates me to achieve this one day and will feel soooo good when i land my first kickflip!! Super hyped putting in work whenever i can! Summer here atm been weird rainy and stormy all the time, mad respect bro, you definitely put alot of time and joy into honing your skill 👊🏻🇳🇿

    Cheers, I love watching you skate. I really like that in your other video you show all of the eyelids and arseholes that go into making the sausage too.
    My own skating goals are pretty limited, I've started skating again at 42 just as a way of going around with my 4 year old on his little bike. I'd just like to be able to ollie over and obstacle, which I always lost my balls with as a kid even though I could ollie really high stationary! I'd also like to one day land a kickflip... I reckon these two goals are achievable when my little one is skating properly and we spend more time on it - we've just got him his first board and he's learning to ride it up and down in the hallway in the house

I'm like nah I'm gonna learn treflips and relearn kickflips and heelflips heh maybe over ambitious. First month back has just been like oh shit I have no leg muscles, lots of elliptical and leg exercises. Now I'm doing kicklfips better than I ever could before and landing frontside shove-its and 360 shove-its which I had never done before. I kinda forgot how to have fun after my dad died, mom got cancer, mf Trump made my country lose its mind. I swear skating made me rediscover joy when nothing else did

    Perfect video to open the new year, basically a comp of the cleanest and most picturesque lands in Jonny's endless supply of footage. Only Jonny can get away with calling primos, a 1-wheel manny, some truckstand stuff, all among some other funky tricks "less weird". Also, to be fair, it's hard to have a trick look bad if they're all that clean . . . and in front of some of the most beautiful mountains anywhere on the planet, but definitely hit home on the nice looking tricks part regardless :)
