promoting safety makes him a legend in and of itself. Nothing cooler than hitting the trick and not winding up in a coma if you don't, but go ahead Nike, you do you, hurt the world while claiming you're doing the opposite, yall are THE BELIEVER
Andy always shows what Skateboarding should be all about: Having fun and giving a fxck on what others think about your tricks. As long as you're enjoying it you are right
@@ZenMasterGeebut that’s how Andy skates in his videos. He’s obsessive about being able to complete a clean run. You gotta admit, it’s impressive to be so consistent with such technical tricks. As an amateur skater myself, that takes a lot of practice 😅
@@ZenMasterGee Bud, he has like 1,500 hours or uncut videos on TH-cam of him doing wayyyyyyy longer than 45-second runs...run which arguably zero other skaters can achieve. His style is far less repetitive than any given comp skater. As much as I love Joslin, for instance, he doesn't improvise worth a damn. Almost none of them do. Andy does. To hell with scores and prizes...Andy is everything skateboarding represents!
Possibly the most creative skateboarder, within a sport that prides itself on originality and self-expression, that will never get a win because of his style of skateboarding. Fucking piss take.
@@lolololol-e7z I guarantee Andy could come much closer to replicating every other run than any other skater there could get to replicating his. Tell me, how do you measure skateboarding ability then?
@Cameldactyl To be fair, Yuto is just different. He's doing tricks that won't be the standard for another couple years so I'll give you that one. Still calling bullshit on the other 11 or so people that placed above him for reasons I already stated.
My favourite skater. Love the helmet too when I skate anything new or hard I try to use my knee pads and helmet atleast at the beginning. Making it cool to be safe like Mullen gets the utmost respect 🤙🏽
Having pads on gives you the confidence you need to conquer whatever your skating goals are, whether it's a transition line at your local park or a new flip tricks you're trying to learn, they have helped me get much farther than I ever thought I would
@@robreeto it’s funny you say this now because I learned boardslides a few days ago and that’s what I was saying in my video is I didn’t fear the pain of falling anymore I was wearing my gear for the mental aspect of feeling free to try whatever and it worked! Completely forgot I made this comment I’ve grown so much since then and Andy is still my favourite skater 😂
FUUUUUCK AMPLITUDE. This is like watching Rodney Mullen in his prime. Dude can't get a fair score in these formats. Pretty happy he doesn't really need the win to keep going like some Shaun White type.
For him not to make finals just shows that skateboarding is still judged as a popularity contest rather than judged by skills and talent. Bails or not, NO OTHER SKATER there could pull off his run but apparently that means nothing 🤦♂️
If you don't land a complete run, then obviously you'll have a hard time beating complete runs, that makes perfect sense. Consistency is part of the contest, you gotta be able to consistently land it, not just able to land it sometimes, in theory.
there is something u can't explain about the flow a skater can have, Andy Anderson has'nt what Yuto Horigome has (one of the flowest skateboarder ever for me). Relaxation and confidence of the landing is all about in my opinion
Love it! I also call that type of skating "industrial" skating. Cuz that is exactly what it looks like. Cero creativity of feeling, just factory of souless tricks with massive corporate quality... but kindda dead.
That “slow comply” at 0:46… I invented it 37 years ago. He named it, but he got it from Street Survival. I’m soooooo stoked to see it in a contest run.
@@TIZFUNK It’s documented though… Street Survival was released in ‘88. We filmed it in ‘87 and ‘88. Andy said in his Nine Club interview that he watched it a bunch when he was young. Keep lying and accusing others of lying; that’s all you. You’ll either get over it or you won’t. Not my concern.
@@TIZFUNKbro someone has to event all those obscure tricks. Stuff like anti hospital, anti big spin, hang ten hard flip, lion flip etc were all done the first time by some randomer lol
Go watch a mullen contest run in the 80s.. he was consistent and much more skilled and high level. When he switched to street he was even better. You simply can't compare the two. Rodney was better at old-school and new school 100 percent .
@listenup7284 except you forgot to consider something called "transition skating" and the fact that Andy's way better at it than Rodney. Andy is a ATV, Rodney is not.
2:38 waitwaitwait.... how have i watched this like at least a dozen times, and never noticed the furries wearing diapers next to a Cariuma on the side of the ramp... X_X david python is a babyfur; confirmed. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
on variety alone, they need to start scoring other MFs at a 7 or less, give this man his trophy. Let him get one clean competition without the outside influences trying to send kids helmetless down 10sets. #EVILJUICE ps, im not even sure about my claims, but I bet if you looked into it, you would be surprised to learn I am correct.
To be fair he bailed his big trick at the end of both runs, I do agree that he gets judged unfairly for being different at times, but this is not a great example.
I bet he didn't win, despite being far and way the best skater, cos he missed a ridiculous flip trick transfer, although he landed everything else clean as and nobody did anything as technical
AA is the reason skateboarding still a thing here in Canada, our scene is all but pretty much dead. go to local skatepark no one can land anything and all you see bunch chimpanzee flinging poo at each other.
his tricks are flat, there's no energy,or vibe, and his trick selection is too odd. That's why he won't win. He is a good skater but he ain't no savant,or redefining skating...he is just ...competent

Andy will never fail to surprise me 🤩
Every generation of skaters has its legends Andy is gonna be one of those.
promoting safety makes him a legend in and of itself. Nothing cooler than hitting the trick and not winding up in a coma if you don't, but go ahead Nike, you do you, hurt the world while claiming you're doing the opposite, yall are THE BELIEVER

Facts
I love Andy so much. His “competitive runs” are still just… Andy doing Andy things. Amazing.
Andy always shows what Skateboarding should be all about:
Having fun and giving a fxck on what others think about your tricks. As long as you're enjoying it you are right
and then again he is doing the exact same run, not improvising at all :/
@@ZenMasterGeebut that’s how Andy skates in his videos. He’s obsessive about being able to complete a clean run. You gotta admit, it’s impressive to be so consistent with such technical tricks. As an amateur skater myself, that takes a lot of practice 😅

He is really good…he loves skateboarding…and embodies creative spirit.
ahhhh! i love watching andy skate!! so refreshing to see! especially in competition! :3
My three favorite skaters: Rodney Mullen, Daewon Song, and Andy Anderson.
Facts my friend. Facts 👍
That’s a solid top 3 in my book
Freestyle+Park+Street+Awesomederson
ANDY DID YOU PLAN THAT, DID YOU PLAN THAT, DID YOU PLAN THAT, ANDY!!!!
The only skateboarder I watch.
No doubt. Before TFs we were getting chased by the police. I'll take less money for the golden age. mid 90's street skating. Same as well for hip hop.
The wizard 🪄! Always so much joy to watch Andy's creativity.
The amazing Andy Anderson!
big fun ANDY!!!
Possibly the most creative skateboarder, within a sport that prides itself on originality and self-expression, that will never get a win because of his style of skateboarding. Fucking piss take.
he wont win because he doesnt skate as good as everyone else in a CONTEST. it also isnt a creativity contest lol
@@lolololol-e7z I guarantee Andy could come much closer to replicating every other run than any other skater there could get to replicating his. Tell me, how do you measure skateboarding ability then?
@@LastTryMedia he does not skate switch so
You are smoking some insane crack copeium if you think Andy Anderson could recreate Yuto's winning or any of his other runs @@LastTryMedia
@Cameldactyl To be fair, Yuto is just different. He's doing tricks that won't be the standard for another couple years so I'll give you that one. Still calling bullshit on the other 11 or so people that placed above him for reasons I already stated.
That last part though insanity
Andy, this kid is matched only Rodney Mullen!!! He is an absolute savage on a board.
Any special move, mr Anderson?
Andy: "yes"

God bless Andy Anderson
Andy Anderson for President of Canada 🇨🇦
Kills it every time
FUUUUUCK AMPLITUDE. This is like watching Rodney Mullen in his prime. Dude can't get a fair score in these formats. Pretty happy he doesn't really need the win to keep going like some Shaun White type.
Most awesome footage, it's called 'the thinker' at the end there, Jake Ilyard covered it 😇🫒😋☮️
My newest favorite
Have you seen his run in the 2022 Olympics? He didn't place well, but he was awesome.
For him not to make finals just shows that skateboarding is still judged as a popularity contest rather than judged by skills and talent. Bails or not, NO OTHER SKATER there could pull off his run but apparently that means nothing 🤦♂️
If he landed every trick I would say it's very possible that he could have made the finals.
If it was a popularity contest then he would of won dummy so your comment ain't relevant
If you don't land a complete run, then obviously you'll have a hard time beating complete runs, that makes perfect sense.
Consistency is part of the contest, you gotta be able to consistently land it, not just able to land it sometimes, in theory.
Maybe he just isn't cut out for competition.
He only missed one trick each run. I thought the rule was done after 2 misses.
Dude.. the nose manual he does is so incredibly difficult to do and I dont think a lot of people understand. Smh Andy is the goat
Needs ollie into it and not on the flat to look good imo:/
there is something u can't explain about the flow a skater can have, Andy Anderson has'nt what Yuto Horigome has (one of the flowest skateboarder ever for me). Relaxation and confidence of the landing is all about in my opinion
I mean you're comparing him to one of the best street skaters on the planet. He must be doing something right.
not just flow , you need flair too , lacking in most of the best skater
@@americangangster1911 Bah. Yuto's style has zero soul.
He skates like a robot. Gnarly trick bag, but I still find him unappealing, personally.
sick af!
that manual at the end
Um show a parte.
🔥
Other skaters might have "crazier" tricks, but...nobody injects fun into skating like Andy does! 🤩
If Andy Anderson walked in to compete in the same contest as me, I would just go home.
So uhh, did he make it to the finals?
Didn't notice first time watching this, but they ask which grip tape he is riding. His own! His own deck and shoes too, guy is keyed in.
he rides his own griptape, the theory map
como no gano?
I feel like Andy was more creative and entertaining the 90% of the skaters. His Scores were an insult. Those judges are whack.
Combine Mike Vallely and Rodney Mullen, add a helmet and you have Andy :)
Certified Ripper
I blame Eric Costa from back in the day for turning skateboarding into a factory work!
Love it! I also call that type of skating "industrial" skating. Cuz that is exactly what it looks like. Cero creativity of feeling, just factory of souless tricks with massive corporate quality... but kindda dead.
@julianblake8385 Yeah, it turned into a cookie cutter trend and killed the art in motion. Like there was no more individual style.

When he does his Skywalker Slide. 🤌

Andy will replace the goat rodney one day i believe it
he planned that at the end. i've seen him do that trick in other vids

👌
And he didn’t advanced to the finals isn’t acceptable. Dude is a blender of street, freestyle and vert

Have you watched any of his video parts? You should probably reserve judgment until you actually see his best skating.
