I'm an old school skate it from the mid 90s.... I'm about to be 29 and I just started skating again..... got myself a pair of Chris Haffys... and on my god... ice skate oxygen... the low cuff light blues was the last skates i Owned.... and the difference with the shock absorbers is amazing does old oxygens you jump off something really high and it felt like your ankles was going to snap but I'm getting really back into it.... I grew up skating with Billy o Neal.. well I'm coming back hard!
Skating has come along way since my time. I used to go skating with Arlo Eisenburg and Brooke Howard Smith in the good ol days in NZ. Watching this makes me wana dust off my old TRS's! Dang that Chris is good!
true that, ive been blading for 2 years and where i live its been almost completely forgotten about, when my brother was younger he was part of the blading era and i hope to god that i can bring it back and i realize its a fat chance for one person but its worth it for such a bad ass sport or at least i wish i could move smewhere where its still big.
Inlining is everything Skateboarding used to be pre-1994. No money, DIY, being the outcast. It's all about progression and love of what you do now. Haffey is at the forefront of this progression. It seems like every time he has a new section the bar is raised again.
I remeber these days, hittin up Vans skatepark with my brother tearin up the rails and ledges going line after line doing nothing but trying to do what we saw. All day, thinkin that one I'll be where Haffey is. We would watch the Hyphy movies before taking our pvc pipe rail outside and tryin to do what we saw everybody do, bustin our asses eating shit and whatnot xD. It sucks that a part of my life is dying before my eyes, and I can't do much more about it. WE NEED TO REVIVE THIS SPORT!
@mypantsarechaffed rollin = skateboarding = bmx = tennis = golf in skill necessary to excel. it doesn't matter if you don't like a few people you met at a skatepark, rolling still rocks. i repeat, 325-329 is the sickest combo i have seen on skates. it's like watching jordan dunk from the foul line.
oh fair enough, nice to see a skateboarder who respects inline too XD i did both and PERSONALLY, i think skateboarding is harder, but i just enjoy inline more, the feeling etc.
@MrGutterbunny I was never a fan of Anti-Rocker either, but since I imagine my technique has suffered greatly, what can ya do? I now live about 400 miles from where I used to skate, so I need to adapt to this area. Keep on skating...let's show these young punks how we older folks get down! I wonder if Boarders still have the same animosity towards us...that was pretty rampant in the 90s. A Boarder friend of mine used to get mad when I told him that WE couldn't bail if a trick went awry. :)
This part is so sick. It honestly makes me want to boot and Im a skateboarder who skates everyday. I love skating but skateboarding has been losing its originality lately. This is pretty new and interesting to me. Although, I know ill never quit skateboarding and pick up booting, this makes booting seem really awesome.
@liberater12312321 its harder, but also better.. you can absorb more impact landing backwards... but at high speeds its more tricky. so it shows that hes got talent even if its a bit more dangerous.
well if you really think about it, you can't really compare skaters cause they are all good but they are all just so different. so really there really isn't any comparison.
he was born in 85 so he's like 21-22, I'm 22 and just started up again since I was 14, just a slight lay-over, keep on bladin ya'll, the older you get the more balls you accumulate
@mypantsarechaffed it's short for combination. it means a combination of tricks. a trick is a maneuver. in rollerblading, a trick is when you either grind on the plates of your rollerblades, or you do a spin in the air. in other words, a comination is when you do more than one trick before you land. it takes a large amount of skill to do such. let me know if you're still confused about it!
i think the first song is greens keepers-lotion bt im not sure. go on vimeo, watch the whole vid cos its excelleent nd all the songs are in the credits.
nice man i had those found em in the back of my closet slapped on some estilo skins new plates some old frames and rocked em i liked em so much im like skating them mroe than my xsjado's getting alpha 3 red and white skins next and some senate liners..going straight old school
this a a sweet vid haffey pwns, but i still dont get the difference between a truespin and a alley-oop, cuz if im goin fakie and 180 into lets say a makio, wat would that be?? or would it just be a fakie 180 to makio?? i no this is prob a stupid question but o well xD
i love wood pushin and i love wood pushin videos This is seriously in the top 20 skate videos for me. Its like a ton of skate videos and then all of chris haffeys blading parts. Seriously makes me wanna grab some fruit and hit some massive gaps or something. 666 comments before this!
this is from 2005 but still there is no better vid than this one.... andd haffey my idol is the best of all times
HAFFEY IS FEARLESS!! wtf ive been skating damn near my whole life and this guy makes me want to call it quits!!
rollerblading isnt dead!!!!! rollerblading is alive and it allways will stay!!! :D Love for all inline skaters
been watching this video for years and years. listen to this song before every skate sesh.

you da man
Miss this time so much with Haffey ! Best rider ever !
Skating has come along way since my time. I used to go skating with Arlo Eisenburg and Brooke Howard Smith in the good ol days in NZ. Watching this makes me wana dust off my old TRS's! Dang that Chris is good!
Been watching this vid for over a decade and man… hits different
chris haffey man... he is the greatest of all time the fakie 1 foot gap @ the end was just mind-blowig
I love how damn near every good video has most of its footage at UCI. That campus has been trying to run us off for like 16 years hahaha
this is the video that got me skating!!! GO HAFFEY!!!!
Skateboarding is a trend.
Rolling is a passion.
true that, ive been blading for 2 years and where i live its been almost completely forgotten about, when my brother was younger he was part of the blading era and i hope to god that i can bring it back and i realize its a fat chance for one person but its worth it for such a bad ass sport or at least i wish i could move smewhere where its still big.
Love that quick-fakie 360 over the huge gap at the end. Lands it clean.
Pretty much the king of stunt blading.
I have watched this video at least once a year over a decade and this always blows my mind :O
Inlining is everything Skateboarding used to be pre-1994. No money, DIY, being the outcast. It's all about progression and love of what you do now.
Haffey is at the forefront of this progression. It seems like every time he has a new section the bar is raised again.
I still can't quite comprehend how fucking high this guy can jump.
i wish someone would upload this in HD. its so good.
Ya I agree but brings back so much nostalgia feels like a time machine
one of my fav sections EVER it still juices me up to go skate
doubtful anyone will reach this level ever again
Nope
This is where aggressive rollerblading peaked.
I remeber these days, hittin up Vans skatepark with my brother tearin up the rails and ledges going line after line doing nothing but trying to do what we saw. All day, thinkin that one I'll be where Haffey is. We would watch the Hyphy movies before taking our pvc pipe rail outside and tryin to do what we saw everybody do, bustin our asses eating shit and whatnot xD. It sucks that a part of my life is dying before my eyes, and I can't do much more about it. WE NEED TO REVIVE THIS SPORT!
lovin the white boots and the tricks are freaking amazing too. i wish i could do this. you guys are awesome.
this section gets me juiced eveytime
i don't understand why so many people think that inline skating is gay. this is awesome stuff.
that fakey 360 looked amazing
@mypantsarechaffed rollin = skateboarding = bmx = tennis = golf in skill necessary to excel. it doesn't matter if you don't like a few people you met at a skatepark, rolling still rocks. i repeat, 325-329 is the sickest combo i have seen on skates. it's like watching jordan dunk from the foul line.
The greatest section of all time, Hands Down.
😳it's like watching a videogame character
This guy could be tom cruise's stunt double.
i wish i could skate half as good as him i,ve rolling for 15 yrs much much respect
maaan i miss skating so much now. some of those shots were takin at uci too. i recognize the rails.
I did this shit over 10yrs ago now and I miss it to pieces. Wish my body would let me do this again......either way Haffey is insane!!!!
So so so good
seriously struggling to see what's switch and what isn't in this video, he's so smooth it's unreal.
chris haffey is seriously like the best skater ever...
Golden age!
Mad video, some of this shid actually scares me!
That last gap is the best i've seen.
And for those few of you who didnt know, or are too lazy to scroll down: the second song is Placebo - Special K
oh fair enough, nice to see a skateboarder who respects inline too XD
i did both and PERSONALLY, i think skateboarding is harder, but i just enjoy inline more, the feeling etc.
Oh Shiiiiiiiit! I can't believe this video still Fucking exist, this is the legend, the gold
he always has the best fuckin sections!!!:)
the first line i the whole video you hear is ''' put the ocean in the basket'' lol
@MrGutterbunny I was never a fan of Anti-Rocker either, but since I imagine my technique has suffered greatly, what can ya do? I now live about 400 miles from where I used to skate, so I need to adapt to this area.
Keep on skating...let's show these young punks how we older folks get down!
I wonder if Boarders still have the same animosity towards us...that was pretty rampant in the 90s. A Boarder friend of mine used to get mad when I told him that WE couldn't bail if a trick went awry. :)
3:41 that line is so ridiculously hard holy shit
This part is so sick. It honestly makes me want to boot and Im a skateboarder who skates everyday. I love skating but skateboarding has been losing its originality lately.

this shit is so good, that it must be illegal
Is this not one of the oldest videos on TH-cam!!!!??? Damn Chris Haffey!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 (dated 4/28/2020) 😁🤷♂️
@toomanysneakers Song is: Placebo - Special K
his 540 at 4:16 and that last fakie 3 are ill, and the fact that he skates so fast into every trick just adds balls
Here at 38 to see my 16 year old comment is hilarious.
haffey is one of the best!!! maybe best skater ever!
those are the all white haffey 2's splatmaster, I wish I could get my hands on a pair, def. my fav. blader too
well if you really think about it, you can't really compare skaters cause they are all good but they are all just so different. so really there really isn't any comparison.
he was born in 85 so he's like 21-22, I'm 22 and just started up again since I was 14, just a slight lay-over, keep on bladin ya'll, the older you get the more balls you accumulate
damn.... he is reaaaallly.. good..i enjoyed this video !!!

@nooky9440 The first one is Lotion - Greenspeepers and the second one is Special K - Placebo ;)
legend
I'd like to nominate Chris Haffeys part the best rollerblading section period
the 45 that Disliked tought it means DIS I LIKE
@mypantsarechaffed it's short for combination. it means a combination of tricks. a trick is a maneuver. in rollerblading, a trick is when you either grind on the plates of your rollerblades, or you do a spin in the air. in other words, a comination is when you do more than one trick before you land. it takes a large amount of skill to do such. let me know if you're still confused about it!
I've never seen Rollerblading look this sick
chris haffey = Amazing
Matt Andrews did the same trick in "Elements II 07 Sean Cullen-Matt Andrews". It is at 2:02.
haffey is sooooo beast.

@hshanableh haffey invented gravity as he was bored of
grinding rooftops
i think the first song is greens keepers-lotion bt im not sure. go on vimeo, watch the whole vid cos its excelleent nd all the songs are in the credits.
3:24 dope, he was on the ledge fer days!
Im not sure what makes this video so epic. The fact thats its placebo - special k or the fact that its chris haffey
nice man i had those found em in the back of my closet slapped on some estilo skins new plates some old frames and rocked em i liked em so much im like skating them mroe than my xsjado's getting alpha 3 red and white skins next and some senate liners..going straight old school
