- Some Rodney flat ground magic plus hitting the ramps as part of the A-Team demo.
I tried to keep the editing minimal on this to show how consistently he had these.

I love the fact Mullen could do a freestyle run from 1984 and blow kids' minds in 1998.
Blow our minds in 2021
@@kyleheaser1089 True, true. I don't think a lot of those kids in 1998 even realized he was doing that all that stuff in 1984, though. His freestyle seemed to get a lot more exposure around 2002. Kids today look at things a little differently, appreciate more styles of skating in general. Things used to be a lot more regimented in terms of what was considered cool.
@@morgellon9449 true true. Not only that, the same footage is still blowing minds in 2021!
@@pauldavies8020 I watched all his old Plan B parts yesterday after seeing this clip. There's so much he did back then that is still way beyond next level.
Mullin is legend, but come 89, 91...raw street skating was emerging, h street, blind, launch ramps....and so on boring cites then turned into sk8 places, by waxing curbs and wall riding and such, mullen..early freestyle days twas almost like watching s corny karate tournament. All the other freestyle sk8ers...had nothing compared to Rodney,....the streets were the real open mics...back then ...
Bro if you have anymore of Rodney Mullen clips just upload it all regardless if it’s fails or not it’s always great to see clips of his
💯
He's so sick
🤌
Bro, Rodney don't fail, EVER
Bro, I second this🤙🏻
that 90's underground hip hop makes it even better.
Fuck yeah. The 90s were intense. Sucks what the world has come to. I guess the fun is over.
Calm down. We still got Ye or what's left of him. That shit.
@@superwalt2159 No kidding. These kids just don't understand what being rad is. You had to be there poser. :P
@@Elder74 we have David Gravette too. He's badass. But the scene isn't the same. The whole vibe changed. It doesn't feel the same.
@@superwalt2159 I'll hold your beer
Nostalgic watching these old skateboard clips. Brings back memories of tony hawks pro skater 1 and 2. Those were the days
FUCKEN OATH
Hands down Skateboarding GOAT.
@@Hoppapolla 100%, Nyjah is king
@@nedflanders8351 lmaoooooo
@@Hoppapolla FUCK NO lol. F all can't do half the tricks Rodney created.
@@nedflanders8351 Still yet to see him Casper Slide or Darkslide sooo yeah nah.

That one footed 540 nollie shuv was sic. Wonder when's Gigers going to try it?
Hahaha Giger should see this comment.
@jonnygiger ?
@@kmagius he's a really talented skateboarder and he has a youtube channel where he makes videos called The Impossible Tricks of Rodney Mullen where he picks one of Rodneys tricks n tries to land it.
@kozaks 😊 I know. I have followed him for years. Hence why I tried to tag him in my comment.
@@Bmxbandit261 talented is an understatement.
My era of skateboarding. Love the drum n bass in the background.
Amazing footage. I literally searched decades for a clip of Mullen in a miniramp!
Lmao I clicked cause of the thumbnail. I’ve never wanted to see a skater do a kick turn so bad haha.
Same. Is there any footy of him actually skating on a miniramp?
@@TheWhyer Yes this one haha
I heard he started out on transition so he has to have some skills on it.
He didn't skate a mini ramp though. I want some footage of him actually skating a mini
I used to work at a skate warehouse in the nineties.
One year during Christmas season I bought myself a Plan B Rodney Mullen (Jazz Player) deck just to hang on my wall.
And to this day I still have it on my wall.
I treasure it.
What year?
2021 and still ahead of the game... GOAT!
Rodney always seemed like he was on a totally different wavelength. His tricks and the way he moved was so original and never duplicated.
When I started skating in’88 there were so many icons I looked up to and this is by far one of the best clips ever
Nice name haha. Have a nice day
Wow that one-foot 540 shove-it at 0:24 is insane, I've never seen that before even all these years later.
yes, he does one in his 1989's world industries part. I recommend to check it.
I have never seen a one footed shove let alone a 720, not a 540 btw
Love that he's still doing the original kickflip in 1998
Still one of my heroes.
Damn I am getting old
Rodney mullen on TedTalks is an awesome video. This man is as genuine and as pure as it gets.
This is from my adolescence I really looked up to skaters like mullen. He was incredible.
Best to ever do it, no question. A true visionary 🙏
I was there.
He signed my first deck. 😁
What a great memory to have 😊
Rodney Mullen was a genius skateboarder. Absolutely amazing technique.
He created a style of street dancing on a board(when vert was becoming god) and no one could do it for about a decade, now street skating is the most popular form. Its safe to say Mullen was ahead of his time.
Its funny to see the evolution of sk8n -
1st - a silly joke toy
2nd - downhill and pre '79 trix like handstands.
3rd - counter culture and street sk8 tricks evolved bc of urethane wheels, punks mainly - (example)Zephyr team
4th - vert emerges and Mullens board dancing
5th - Bones Brigade formed and created first successful superteam and changes from counter culture to main stream
6th - Vert dominates for a decade
7th - new street sk8rs take it to Mullens lvl and make their own style
8th - commercialized and extremely profitable mainsteam sport
Yes im sure ive missed a few trends but this is a run down of how we got to today.
I love this dude he's so humble he's a total savant though
He's just got pure love for skating
So fucking DOPE! What a time for the culture. Skating, graff everything even the buds were getting Dank. Miss those days
Our lord and savior
😁😆😂🥰❤️Love it! If you know, you know 🤷🏻♂️
Jesus Christ is the True Lord and Savior
@@likenl4508 Only if you're compensating for something. Christians are way too fond of double standards and selective adherence to Christian values, especially if Republicans. 🤷🏻♂️
Buddhism and Taoism are way less judgemental and much more philosophical. ☮️☯️
You're funny!
@@likenl4508 Give me money.
I was there that day, and the A Team also skated at Royal Oak skate park my local spot. I arrived one morning to see the A Team at my local spot it was amazing the level of skating they had.
Rodney Mullen Is Skateboarding GOAT The Godfather Of Tricks
Rodney invented the tricks and Penny invented the style. Basically, we wouldn’t have any of this if Rodney hadn’t invented it.
Where does Gonz fit into your conceptualization of skateboarding’s roots?
@@ianturnbow7011 Ooooh. Good question. I forgot. Man. I guess Gonz is the one who provided the creative, artistic spirit of it. As in, Gonz took Rodney’s imaginings and applied them to all the streets of the world. Gonz’s approach is always changing and never stagnant and I love that.
This is why Rodney is called the Godfather of Skateboarding. Go to any skatepark or skate spot in the world, and within 5 minutes you'll see at least 3 tricks being done that he invented. No one else can even come close to any kind of claim like that.
Tom Penny is the GOAT when it comes to style. Dude just made everything look so effortless. Steeze for days.
You really think no one else would have started trying tricks? I dont mind giving Godney Mullen credit but to claim no one else would have eventually done it is a bit absurd.
I built every ramp in that video, not even lying.
proof ?
@@augustinnilsson4628 why would someone lie about it?
@Raynard Hymen We probably knew each other, I hung around this park a lot back in 98, Anton used to open up the park for us to do early morning sessions. I drank in the Beat bar. Happy days. :)
@@billB101 do you see anton much these days? Or Rory?
@@raynardhymen2139 Anton lives in Oxford now, I see him once in a blue moon, friends on Facebook. I don't see anyone else nowadays though - even though I live up the road - everyone seemed to go their separate ways.
He's just so consistent. Every video he's always banging it out!
thx for the gem
Still god tier to this day. I'm not super into skating but there are so many of his tricks I still have never really seen duplicated or if they can do something similar that's their big trick and rodney just does it so effortless. Like that 1 foot trick
yeah how is that even possible. its like the board is part of his foot
A 720 shove it one footed that was mind blowing ✌️🥴
That didnt even feel real, how do you think to do that and actually learn it.
Pretty sure it was 540, but still. 🤯
@@qwerty4134 rodney skated trucks as tight as you could get them. the slightest movement of your ankle would probably lift and spin the board 180 degrees lol
so effortless, so beautiful. Watching a Rodney Mullen skate video of any kind is like watching a work of art…
That man amazed me from day one. First time I saw him was in a Union Skate video back.in the early 90s I believe it was. He was skating to "Dream On". I need to find that video. It was unforgettable.
It’s so crazy that by that time all this stuff was looked upon as novelty. I remember having been a street rat then and most everyone in skating thought this would never be cool again.
Everything about this man is beautiful, he skates like a wizard and speaks like an angel. I would love to sit down and just talk to him for hours. Truly an amazing inspiring person. I wish all good things for Rodney Mullen, he deserves it
The Master Rodney Mullen.....words are not enough....!!!
Def my favorite skateboarder to watch of all time. Dudes invented tons of his own tricks
Love Mullen and his entire person.
Grandfather of the Ollie, unmatched drive, super chill yet enthusiastic
The true GOAT and Legend !
Everything came from his mind!
Literally one of a kind.. bringing old school and new school together
Revolutionary+innovative+consistency= RODNEY MULLEN.
The good old Crash Bandicoot and Tekken times :D
He literally is the best street skater of all time
Nah that’s Gonz
Heavy is the head that wears the crown! Mike Vallely rocked it too along with many others...🛹
Damn I miss those days skating. Playstation, South Bank.
Crazy this is Rodney! I had the pleasure of meeting him at a Barnes and noble in Torrance, CA so humble! He was with Chris Haslam, it was dope!
He's what skating games are based on. One of the only people that can live up to the crazy tricks in them.
He was one of my favorites growing up that opinion video was one of the greatest vhs tapes I had !!!
What a true legend.... simplest style. Great attacks. He makes everything
Ook easy.
Rare clip of Rodney NOT landing everything first try I love it
Decades later. Still the GOAT. Hands down.
Love watching rodney Mullen do rodney Mullen things.
He's my favourite skater. The first time I saw one of his tricks, my jaw dropped.
Your mouth was open and ready for business
@@isawicame5126 Just like your Mom at a PTA meeting.
I had a chance to meet Rodney in 1995 @ Dj's Sk8 Shop in Ambridge Pa. We all congregated outside in this empty parking lot around the corner of DJ's. with a few home made pieces of furniture to sk8 around on. He was phenomenal and was a swell dude to talk with.
Outstanding.
Rodney Mullen is an All Star Skater cause the tricks he does is outta this world
*When I bought my first Rodney Mullen deck, all of my friends who skated asked who he was. There was no TH-cam, or anything of the sort. I actually saw him on a VHS skateboard video. I literally had to show people my buddy’s VHS (that I had to borrow), just to show them he was awesome!*
When my son was about 11 years old he entered a Jaycee Relay Race. He’d never ran track before and didn’t know everybody wore shorts. He came in jeans, to everyone’s amusement. He ran the last leg for his team - and came away the fastest runner of the day, and made up considerable distance to win. This video made me think of that day. How I wish I had been able to see it, instead of only hear and read about it. I was a single mom and had to work. My son was an amazing athlete. ❤️
It’s amazing what you’re capable of when you don’t have outside distractions telling you this is how you run, or this is how you skate. Your son showing up to the track meet in jeans is like Rodney doing flat ground at the skatepark. Do what you love.
Single Mom's are athletes too...marathons...you have my respect along with his no doubt...
that 1 foot 540 shuv it is fucking insane!! like a real playstation game trick
The true GOAT of skateboarding
I was never a freestyle skater but I always had mass respect for Rodney and I still do till this day.
This is what youtube is all about, thanks for uploading this, tape shredder! IAMOfficially Stoked!
I could watch this legend all day
This man is a LEGEND!
God the 2000 seasons by talib in the back really rounds out the late 90’s vibe of this video
This should be called "Rodney Mullen uses a jump ramp"
No one else can ever be As good as rodney was
thank you for this upload. i've literally never seen this footage before
To everyone else it's impressive, to Rodney its Tuesday.
PlayStation skatepark. I got to skate that place in the summer of 1997. I was a teen and on a family vacation. It was a cool park, under an expressway or something like that. Chicago has a skatepark under an expressway too. The PlayStation park was set up really cool. They had a lot of open space. A lot of what I’m seeing in this video wasn’t there when I skated it.
I was there back in the day, got him to sign stuff for us after, legend.
On another freak'n level. Mullens forever baby!
saw a vert ramp in the thumbnail and got so excited lol
All time legend
The Godfather of modern street skating
Rodney skateboarder's king
Untouchable
I'll never understand how he can manipulate the board so precisely with those boats of shoes.
Its like he's using his fricking skateboard as ice skates or something dudes a freak for sure.
Decades ahead of his time, brilliant skater.
LEGEND 💯🦾🔥❤️🔥🖤
Dopest Dude in the Dope Game 🎯 ! Legendary ! Great vint footage ! Thanks for posting ! 👍
Rodney is a legend, The Godfather of street skating. He’s probably the only skateboarder where 30 years later very few people can do some of his signature tricks.
All time favorite skater 🛹👏👏👏
I remember on n64 playing Tony Hawk and saw these dudes .. the made me respect this sport amazing skills
Thank you for uploading‼️
This is how I remember this park. Even all the graff I recognise
The skate king
Bro so much of this footage is cut I can’t believe the original uploaded to TH-cam in like 2012 and was taken down it was at least 3 minutes but this one is cut but is in better quality? I’m so confused anyways ima have to make some connections I need the full footage asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
50 seconds of Rodney Mullen doing tricks the most people would never be able to replicate in 50 years of skating xD
PLEASE MORE OF THIS!!!!!
Mosley, woodstock, Martinez, Caballero, Muska, Jason Jesse , etc etc etc... a ton of excellent skaters!
Legend
This hit me right in the feels
Mullen is the man. He's the only guy who has momentum off the ramp stops just to kick off and do what he wants instead.
thank you for sharing
the king of flatground
OMG!!! HOW HAVE I NOT SEEN THIS BEFORE!
It’s crazy that he’s like every single kid at the park now. Pioneer he was
Wow! Unbelievable footage
The Greatest of all Time!
Sick! He was the man back in the day!
