Time is so strange. I remember being a kid and not really understanding why pros seemed to like AVE. Back then it was plain to see that Jamie Thomas and Andrew Reynolds, for example, were doing way more. But then decades pass by, and a lot of big pros just sort of disappeared and stopped putting out much footage: Arto, Rowley, Koston, Dill and so many others. Yet, AVE is still going. Not only that, but skating styles and trends changed too, and suddenly everything AVE was every doing seems like the coolest shit. It’s more timeless. Going really fast and sliding longer for example. Keeping it burly without getting into the stair counting contest of the late 90s/early 2000s.
I'm guessing you weren't seeing his 411vm parts. Absolutely crushing it, regular montage clips too. I love his Photosynthesis part, but it didn't really outdo any existing footy. His DC part is insanely good. I think SOTY that year if not for Danny
AVE is the goat his skating is just the way skateboarding should be. So raw and his skating looks so good and his switch game is insane he’s the real switch god and way ahead of his time
AMAZING AVE! WOW. Is there a way to keep this part alive like the old VHS days where we watch it over and over? I feel like thrasher should make a playlist that gets streamed to skateshops/cafes etc etc so more people see it again and again. LEGEND!

I agree to all of what you said exept about Rowley not putting out much footage! Rowley is still shredding!
Ave is still going and I fucking love it. Even crazier he's still progressing.
What the fuck else is he gonna do
The greatest switch 360 flip of all time.
Ave s Part in the dc Video forever childhood memory... so sick
all killer no filler
What a powerhouse to pair with a classic song
that's exactly the word that best describes AVE. powerhouse!
That Switch Kickflip over the Bumpy Sidewalk Grass Gap
Also, best 9.24 minutes I've spent lately👌
AVE!!!!! Thank you for this!!
vans - please bring back the AV classic shoe!!
Bro his shoe was so good for sure had to have been the only shoe I bought more than once
His switch game in rough street is mental😮😮

Longevity at its finest! Dude is 46 and that power is still there . Definitely inspirational.
Anthony = leggend
He skates better at 40 years old than he was 20!!
Great respect and ❤

Wow this was good. I remember so many of these clips from Vans ads and photos and sequences in mags.
Legend. Love his style.
SO many good video parts over the years. He has mastered legend status.
Nobody deserves it more IMO. Dude has killed it for years and years!
There will only ever be one AVE. What a beast.
Love seeing the mystical green curved bench
The fact that he does all these gnarly tricks skating switch is amazing
His switch game has been insane even back in the DC video. He’s been crazy good since forever

AVE proving age ain’t nothing but a number 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for skateboarding. For real.
AMAZING AVE! WOW. Is there a way to keep this part alive like the old VHS days where we watch it over and over?
I feel like thrasher should make a playlist that gets streamed to skateshops/cafes etc etc so more people see it again and again. LEGEND!
He’s regular for anyone who didn’t notice. This man is regular stance
Incredible edit! Thank you
Anthony's skating + the Phantasm theme song = hot fire.
I was just thinking that! Works well together
🔥🔥🔥👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
This guy's a manly man beast skater.
Is this 100% old footage??
wicked edit, such a raw legend
Part was shockingly fire AF..
It wasn't a part - it's a retrospective collection of archival footage (just saying). But, you're right: it's all fire!
Underrated skater for sure.
Legend
9min went faster than snack time...made me want more and more! GD LEGEND ❤
Meus parabéns por reproduzir novamente uma video part muito pesada de Van Engelen... 19 anos atras com manobras e nível atual.
RESPECT DUE AVE! STREET SKATING AT ITS BEST!!!!!

Skates with power, damn mad good switch game, Looks like he can kick some ass.
Viewing pleasure 👏👏👏
Dude is super creative
NOSTALGIA!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Timeless.
Incredible!!!
he's the one skater that really deserved the SOTY in 2015. No contest, and also I miss the AWS era
Switch tre flying down the street was crazy
Crazy!!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh yeah. Also very fitting that AVE skates Vans which was founded year of horse in 66.
Ave power 🔥🔥🔥
SOLID ROCK🔥🔥🔥
Sick. Respect
One of the best 🍻
Insane part!
Seriously, he surfs the streets. Sotyyyyyy
AVE is like wine, he gets better with age.
Back tail up the stacked benches🤯
That logo with the music has a 80’s halloween horror movie sense
I remember back in the day I had some vans ortholite ave nice part
He has so much Uummmpff in his switch tre's. Powerful as hell.

Dude that was switch!
Be more specific: what exactly was switch? There's like 9 minutes of tricks here!

R.I.P JAMES HARDY. Um dos melhores skatistas e ser humano que já passou por esse planeta.
Van Engelen 🤘🏻

At this point AVE should just legally change his name to “Fine Wine”

How can he have been skating Vans for 19 years when it feels like the DC video came out a few years ago?!
2003...2004...

Sick! But 180$ for a vans skate shoe is crazy
