I'm in my 30's. Stopped skating when I graduated high school, I use to watch this part every single damn day after school before I went out to go skate.. I'm seriously thinking about getting back on a board again.
@@sasproductions701 TLDR. Seriously. You need help. Try to read that spiel from someone else's perspective and notice how many times you were hypocritical, selfish and unappreciative of your so called friends. So much toxicity in one self obsessed diatribe
Same here, stopped after high school but I'm back in the game after 11 years! The body doesn't take slams that could anymore past your 30s, but it's still fun and my wishlist (tricks I wanna learn) is larger than ever!
I'm 40, I remember watching this when I was like 18 skating downtown Miami kick flipping 10s and 12s.. me and my friends used to go hard and this video was so motivating.. Bayside 7s, court house 10s.. skating was life
I was 12 when I first watched this. 33 now and watching it again gives me goosebumps. P rod was the only famous person in any category who I wanted to dress like at the time, and to see how guys career unfolded since then is unbelievable. He did it all with so much class
Brings back many memories skating during those early 2000 years. One of the best times of my life and will always remember those memories skating created
I got this DVD when I was 13 and watched it everyday before I went out to skate. Out of every part, p-rod had such a smooth style, even as a teenager, and that influenced my skating so much. Since then, I have gotten to skate with lots of shredders, some from this same DVD. Such as Mike Taylor, Mike Mo, Chris Cole. Skateboarding is such an awesome thing to be part of and has always been a tight community, and we had to be! We were the outcasts. The popularity will come and go but it's good to see us stick together and stay friends. We could be from opposite sides of the planet, but if you've got a skateboard, we're instant homies, and that's dope. Shout out to all the homies I haven't skated with yet. See y'all out there.
Still watching this after breaking 20 bones and still pushing to have fun and continue my passionate lifestyle. 23 years later I'm still shreddin, moderation is key take little breaks. Drink water, have fun, eat good and sleep good. Anythings possible with God.
I always liked prod. He wasn’t one of my favorites but I always thought he had amazing style. After he got hurt, and came back with that “What the prod?” Promo for Nike... I appreciated him so much more. Now that I’m revisiting his old parts I’m blown away that I didn’t see it as much before: one of the really great things about him is the trick versatility. Its a much wider range of tricks than most pros. I think before I thought we was overrated. I don’t think that anymore.
Nah man there’s always gonna be ppl of the new generation that wanna keep it underground. Skating is still somewhat sacred but trendy af at the same time like you said it’s weird but overall there’s not a wrong or right reason to skate. All that matter is that we’re all here
were you around in 2002? that was or at least leading into when the biggest skateboarding ever was, muska would get chased in the streets by mobs of kids, video games, movies, everyone was trying to capitalize.
Fuck yes! I remember watching this when I first started skateboarding. I was blow away by this part and I remember admiring Prod so much after watching In Bloom for the first time. At the time I thought to myself; this guy is barely older than I am and he has already developed such magnificent skill and style on a skateboard at such a young age... How can I compete? Haha!
Tiny wheels, big trainers, clak clak clak, pop, smak. Bolts. That's what it's all about. The 00s were special and we didn't know it at the time, we were too busy having fun
I remember debating with my friend on who had the better part. Paul or Evan. We were like 13 and he swore Paul had the better part where I thought Evan did. Looking back on this almost 20 years later... he was right. I didn't realize how comfortably Paul skated switch. Insane🤯
I remember seeing this at 11 years old and now things change because I got older lol it's hard to explain... TH-cam and google was the future in the past
Wow, crazy to think how far progression in skating has come. That green rail he sw front boarded Shane o niell sw flip back lipped it in his recent part. Crazy stuff
I'd say the opposite based off that example. Shane is a robot and this footy is from 20 years ago by a 13-ish year old kid. P-Rod has just always been insane.
@Michael Espinoza lol I most definitely understand the difficulty of every trick, seeing how I am 23 and can’t do any of them. Not knocking the switch front board whatsoever, just said the progression of skateboarding is insane. Also, wasn’t knocking his style either, so why argue a point I didn’t make?
What a fucking video part. Never seen this before. I'm from the days where you'd have to buy the VHS from ya local skate shop. You couldn't see em all. Again, this part is epic
I believe the children are the future, teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside, give them a sense of pride. To make it easier.
they did tell him to skate goofy they forced him to. they said paul u best skate goofy or im gonna beat u up, and paul got scared so he did as they said. paul is a G
Damn when he rode for Es, all he wore were the Accels and the EOS...Said those two were the best shoes for skating when he was with them. Don't really see him wearing the Tribo or Schemes as much it seemed.
Still watching this 13 years since I stopped skating. Memories Last forever. Good times
skate againp
Skate again
Go skate again we need you out there with us buddy 🛹
Prod definitely made me give up my dream of being pro when this came out.. but even from then I knew it’s all about having fun
@@ActiveRideShop100 bro do u even know him lol
I'm in my 30's. Stopped skating when I graduated high school, I use to watch this part every single damn day after school before I went out to go skate.. I'm seriously thinking about getting back on a board again.
Did you do it?
You should. I started again at 35
I still skate from time to time and Im 37. Same age as Prod, get it bro

People need to understand, this video, this part, and this music was the beginning of a new era in skateboarding
For real. This whole video was a landmark
Faaaactsss...💯
Prod the man as a child
Paul Rodriguez and Bastien Salabanzi Flip - Sorry video. Two kids pushing the boundaries
why did none of Prod's pro parts excite me as much as amateur prod (in bloom and city stars) can somebody tell me?
A real classic that will never die in skateboarding history. 1 of the best skateboarders to ever exist on this planet. I give it up to Paul Rodriguez.
music + koston intro = CHILLS
Unreal
2020 and this is still one of the best video parts in history..
Still gives me chills down my spine. I'm 36 and use to watch this when I was in high school.
I'm 40, I remember watching this when I was like 18 skating downtown Miami kick flipping 10s and 12s.. me and my friends used to go hard and this video was so motivating.. Bayside 7s, court house 10s.. skating was life
This part was on repeat for a long time. The music was perfect with his skating.
I was 12 when I first watched this. 33 now and watching it again gives me goosebumps. P rod was the only famous person in any category who I wanted to dress like at the time, and to see how guys career unfolded since then is unbelievable. He did it all with so much class
Brings back many memories skating during those early 2000 years. One of the best times of my life and will always remember those memories skating created
Best Part of All Time for me !!! That track and young OG Paul !
Best part is the "wow" at the end, jawdropping stuff from a kid at the time.
Still come back here once in a while

These were the skating days.. great memories!
This brings me back the best days of my life , PROD a legend.
Still watching this after breaking 20 bones and still pushing to have fun and continue my passionate lifestyle. 23 years later I'm still shreddin, moderation is key take little breaks. Drink water, have fun, eat good and sleep good. Anythings possible with God.
One of my fav videos and plus this song makes it very special ❤
Atiba said it best at the end “wow”…2022 still think this is one of the best video parts ever made
The absolute best part. No one can beat this. He is the gold standard and is so humble. So much respect.
I always liked prod. He wasn’t one of my favorites but I always thought he had amazing style. After he got hurt, and came back with that “What the prod?” Promo for Nike...

Miss these days
He took the switch game to a whole another level
One of the part that got me so many emotions! PRod and the song are the perfect match!
"In Bloom," back when today's legends were the up-and-comers.
Watching this at 27. Been watching since 16. It was old then 😅
2:41 One of the best kickflips in the history right there.
One of my favourite parts in my 28 years of skateboarding! PROD=GOAT!
Never gets old !!
Switch god for a reason!
classic one of my favorite videos growing up
Between the city stars part and this, he solidified himself as one of the greatest skaters.
Atiba Jefferson said it best at the end....wow.
I bought in bloom at a vans skatepark and it was the best shit I had ever seen. This and 411VM changed my life
i really love this part ,this video ,tws skateboarding ,PRod...
when skateboarding was something underground and not trendy af
Lorenzo Bliss Molina Lmao skateboarding has been popular since the 60s. Get the fuck over yourself.
@@alexcorona skateboarding was not popular in 1960
Nah man there’s always gonna be ppl of the new generation that wanna keep it underground. Skating is still somewhat sacred but trendy af at the same time like you said it’s weird but overall there’s not a wrong or right reason to skate. All that matter is that we’re all here
were you around in 2002? that was or at least leading into when the biggest skateboarding ever was, muska would get chased in the streets by mobs of kids, video games, movies, everyone was trying to capitalize.
@Nationalist Baller thps was released aug. 31 1999. He landed the 900 june 27 1999 at the 99 summer x games.
Can't wait for Evan Hernandez' part in 1080p60. One of my all time faves
My favorite part of all time
Paul is so cool. Forever my role model of choice. God bless!
Soooo good and hyped. When i saw this. Another great video by TW S and Little PD on 🔥 and still going strong🔥🦾
I remember back that as a kid I was always memorized at how well each trick is on beat !
Melhor época pro skate ❤⚘
I miss these days so much
This is sooo epic! P-ROD on Citystars and és two of my favourite skatecompanies at that time! THE GOAT and and a truly inspiring human being!
Simply the best.
Wow Prod has came a long way..role model for many. Blessings.
the final switch flip and heel are still blowing minds like 20 years later
Fuck yes! I remember watching this when I first started skateboarding. I was blow away by this part and I remember admiring Prod so much after watching In Bloom for the first time. At the time I thought to myself; this guy is barely older than I am and he has already developed such magnificent skill and style on a skateboard at such a young age... How can I compete? Haha!
Have fun, that's how! If your scared don't do it!
Tiny wheels, big trainers, clak clak clak, pop, smak. Bolts. That's what it's all about. The 00s were special and we didn't know it at the time, we were too busy having fun
still mind blowing 16 years later. P-Rod is a legend. wish he put out more footy. I mean, his mini-part in Never was fuckin nuts!
I remember debating with my friend on who had the better part. Paul or Evan. We were like 13 and he swore Paul had the better part where I thought Evan did. Looking back on this almost 20 years later... he was right. I didn't realize how comfortably Paul skated switch. Insane🤯
First skate video I ever got, Evan Hernandez part, Prod and Mike T in this video are fucking magical. Timeless footage and still so inspirational
I remember seeing this at 11 years old and now things change because I got older lol it's hard to explain... TH-cam and google was the future in the past
3:17 the switch steeze came all the way from his feet to his hands
Still here in 2024 ! P rod was that og switch god who made it seem like he didn't even have a stance
the tricks he does nollie and switch are unreal!
18 years strong
DAMN THIS MAN WAS HUNGRY 🔥
I watched this in slow mo and omg it gives me the chills
Wow, crazy to think how far progression in skating has come. That green rail he sw front boarded Shane o niell sw flip back lipped it in his recent part. Crazy stuff
I'd say the opposite based off that example. Shane is a robot and this footy is from 20 years ago by a 13-ish year old kid. P-Rod has just always been insane.
@gaboskatelife 16-17 then in the footy
@gaboskatelife 16

This guy's got talent I think he can make it big in skateboarding!
best part, hands down, style, tricks, music, clothing
What a fucking video part. Never seen this before. I'm from the days where you'd have to buy the VHS from ya local skate shop. You couldn't see em all. Again, this part is epic
The part that put him out to the world
This kid has a bright future ahead of him
A legend!
Sick switch hard flip in the end!
I believe the children are the future, teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside, give them a sense of pride. To make it easier.
If there's one single person i aspire to be like its this man right here barr none
This part changed the fucking game. Im 35 now and its amazing how fucking far we come in this skateboarding shit
Gap to five switch back lip switch kick and switch heel, nollie flip, some of the best trick selection coming up
the chosen one.
!AWESOME!
R.I.P. éS Footwear
edskt they're back fool, get you some
LOL
Haha what? Es is doing better than ever!
He skates like he's regular but someone made him skate goofy when he started. The man's a beast!
they did tell him to skate goofy they forced him to. they said paul u best skate goofy or im gonna beat u up, and paul got scared so he did as they said. paul is a G
Still skating I had stopped for like 5 years picked up my board again
Prodigy
Best of the all times
Prod is such a legend
Now everyone tries to get so technical. Just simple tricks done well are so good.
Damn when he rode for Es, all he wore were the Accels and the EOS...Said those two were the best shoes for skating when he was with them. Don't really see him wearing the Tribo or Schemes as much it seemed.
pasada de lanza
me inspira y lo veia en 2011
Too good!!
still enjoyable many years later. anyone know that song ?
Mophono - I Cry
This in bloom video put me on
At 0:40 he kickfliped so quick I had to watch at 0.05 speed to tell if it was a kickflip
Still dope
Colddddddddd
Here befor this goes viral, varial, varial kickflip, VIRAL
when he hits the switch flip at 1:53. perfect
At 16 his footwork is poetic
This guys going places
this is pretty rad!
Kinda PURISM of Skateboarding.
crazy crazy
Is genial !
Legend
Back when Es footwear had a stack team
such an iconic team they had. Defined that entire skate era.
P-rod should’ve had last part. 1:47 probably the best switch back heel ever done.
i thought it was over at the sw tre!
@@butterknutts5888 for sure. Dude has textbook flip tricks. Makes the hardest shit look easy haha
