One of my biggest wishes in life is that one day we will see a full-lenght documentary about Tom Penny. Interview him,everybody that was around him at different times in his life,and people who adore him and look up to him. And I wish someone like Patrick O'Dell could do the job in that old style epicly later'd but make it 2 hours long. I would pay 100 euros to watch that.
MOST don't/can't handle fame the way TomPenny did/does....We all heard Geoff Rowley "Tom doesn't wanna hear he's the sht or great" he gets mad..The Gonz is like this too but the Gonz isn'tas Sincerely genuine as Tom Is...TomPenny IMO really doesn't let his skating success go to his head..The dude is special..I still want his epic,coveted,hard to find,uber rare Es shoe. despite His shoes being too ghetto for my taste..ThankYou TP!
We proud of Penny here in UK- but we aware he belongs to the whole world. ❤ but you kids be careful - the booze n tings become a lifestyle too. It ain’t all fun. Ask Ali..
Tom Deserves all the respect in the world. Omg I love that old board with TP on the bike. That's when skating was so pure. I wish I could watch Tom Skate back then or now. Hes just so sick.
"penny went ballistic" even that is an understatement, penny trick selection and style is out of this world, nobody can match penny when it comes to STEEZ.. period.
I bet TomPenny influenced more people to skate harder then anyone else. *Same happened earlier W/ Jason Lee in Video Days. helper clean up a lot of sketch
1:26, 2:26 , and 3:21 in the TH-cam vid. THE LEGEND OF TOM PENNY needs to be seen by all who read this. Especially 3:21 fs flip over vert coping to bottom. That is next to impossible to do U can tell by the way he lands it, Unreal
I think you're right bro especially some of the stories I hear of him like the him skating with the lights off that totally to me says he was probably on a little dose of some booms or just knew how to utilize his mind in a think less feel more aspect that mushrooms can provide
+jamalydude agreed hallucinogens can also give you a great sense of confidence, I'm thinking in certain clips he's gotta be tripping cause it's just sooo effortless
@Madeline Monahan no it's really not. I took shrooms and skated once and it was actually very easy to do tricks. There is something to his statement, I assure you. For example I was never very good at switch flips but on shrooms I could switch flip, SW FS flip, Kick back 50-50 the flat bar, and skate mini ramp quite well. Very interesting stuff.
I need a new deck and I can’t afford one but my name is flip so I think the flip team should just give me one haha skated flips decks for about almost 20 years now I think I deserve a free one 🙄 haha 🤙
@James Hendricks no they don't and it's disrespectful to anyone who works hard at what they do. Ask any elite sportsman or musician or whatever and they'll give you one answer. Talent is a myth.
Bullshit. I dont give a fuck how many singing lessons i take and how many hours i practice singing. Im never gonna sound like adele. Some people just are just better at things then other people. Im not gonna say tom penny didn't put in the hard work to but look at the way he rides, hes able to get in a freeflow state which is what I feel makes you great at whatever you do if you can channel that state of mind.

That would be so cool to hang out with Tom Penny for a day
Tom penny is incredible! do a real deal Tom penny episode and epicly later´d will win all skaters hearts world wide!
@@bella_love345 most probably said yes but forgot about turning up lol
Tom Penny will always be my GOAT. His style was so nonchalant & he made it all look so easy

thats when skateboarding was skateboarding...
What is skateboarding now? Asking for a neighbor.
@@billchilds6360 believe it or not, skateboarding
@@louielouielouee the physicality of skateboarding has improved.. the personality and respect has died
@@tenfold7493 not across the board mate, only on the surface

Should have his own episode. Really hope they do one
Tom is a legend!
I have that 411vm. Europe 95. I'm proud of it.
"penny went ballistic"
even that is an understatement, penny trick selection and style is out of this world, nobody can match penny when it comes to STEEZ.. period.
every time he does a tre flip or fs flip photo it always looks incredible
+Drake Knight-Graves or any trick really...but yeah those 2 especially
One day, in the distant future, Tom might be a legend, a myth. No one sure if he ever even existed.
But we know, we know…
🤣🤣🤣
that kickflip back tail god dam
Ppl are bugging on fuckboi Nyjahs one at tampa last week, Penny did it way better 25years ago
please have a real deal Penny episode!
Timeless Tom
Tom is every pro skaters favourite skater.
I bet TomPenny influenced more people to skate harder then anyone else.
*Same happened earlier W/ Jason Lee in Video Days. helper clean up a lot of sketch
I went through like three of those penny mushroom boards. God I miss those tough ass boards.
we need a penny and a new Saari epicly laterd.. that would be so dope
Where can I find the original Arto episode?
@@MrLooseCheeks I've watched it on the Vice website.
1:26, 2:26 , and 3:21 in the TH-cam vid. THE LEGEND OF TOM PENNY needs to be seen by all who read this.

U can tell by the way he lands it,
Unreal
4:19
tom "in the butt?"
nurse "yes"
tom "what does it do?"
nurse "it hurts"
lol wtf
Lmaoo Thanx bruv, Iv always wanted to know what they were saying
The radlands contest said to be from 97 is acutally from 95. He ripped it in 95/96.
Timeless. Anyone know where the Arto Epicly Laterd resides? seems it's vanished
it's uploaded again on TH-cam in 6 (bad quality) parts
Those contest runs were from “Europe 1995” not 1997
Tell that to Aarto
man arto was getting thicc for a while there
Contest footage was 1995 not 97
I think the shrooms made him use extra percentages of the mind
I think you're right bro especially some of the stories I hear of him like the him skating with the lights off that totally to me says he was probably on a little dose of some booms or just knew how to utilize his mind in a think less feel more aspect that mushrooms can provide

J Johnson it only adds to the legend of Tom

@Madeline Monahan you do know that we don't actually use our brain at 100%, right?
2:51
Rune Glifberg!!!! Best years in skateboarding!!!!!
Real clean. But with Rails & sets involved, Arto was Blockin it Out..
Sweeeeet video
i'd like to live at arto saari's house.
I need a new deck and I can’t afford one but my name is flip so I think the flip team should just give me one haha skated flips decks for about almost 20 years now I think I deserve a free one 🙄 haha 🤙
0:53 jeff tremaine never noticed that
Does anyone know where I could find the original photo used for the thumbnail?
That 360 flip at that mini ramp with Gonz and homies? It was in a mag I had, but I have no idea where to find that now lol.
You can Google "Sidewalk Cover Tom Penny" or "Tom Penny - Excerpt (Arto Saari Epicly Later'd)" and then click images. It'll be right there
any link to the whole show?
Eek a Mouse this is from the Arto saari epicly later'd episode
Yes and that episode has since been deleted.
There's no such thing as natural ability. Only hard work.
@On a journey inwards. I guess he was that good the first time he stepped on a board
I agree with you for the most part, but what Tom did wasn't the result of hard work. He was born to skate.
@James Hendricks no they don't and it's disrespectful to anyone who works hard at what they do. Ask any elite sportsman or musician or whatever and they'll give you one answer. Talent is a myth.
no amount of hard work can replicate his style and grace on a skateboard
Bullshit. I dont give a fuck how many singing lessons i take and how many hours i practice singing. Im never gonna sound like adele. Some people just are just better at things then other people.
