    Rodney M. Is the goat and the reason he is the goat not only did he pioneered just about every variation of freestyle but he didn’t self proclaim himself the best of anything. He just wholeheartedly loved skating.

      I agree he loved skating but if you read his autobiography it becomes clear there is a sense of boasting. However that was present with all freestylers such as Primo Desiderio. What’s important to remember is there were so many legends of freestyle with amazing styles with Rodney of being one part of the whole. I think what Mike is saying is don’t forget about the other guys

    Rodney is probably the Greatest skateboarder of all time, doing tricks that haven’t even been landed by anyone today…At a time when the ollie and kickflip were just being invented(by him of course). However, we can’t let Rodney’s awesome skill distract us from the talent of modern freestyle skateboarders! I think that’s what mike was getting at. Also, modern freestylers can do many tricks that Rodney Mullen never landed or will land, and that’s just how skating works over time, it progresses.

    When I was younger I used to do things like rail slides and primo slides across flat tops. I could pressure flip out of both of them and I was skating with someone one day. He was a friend of a friend so I had only just met him that day. He told me that I'll never amount to anything doing tricks like that. I'll never be anybody because nobody wants to watch flatground skateboarding. This crushed my spirit and since then I've stopped doing all those tricks completely and started favoring more modern street tricks like frontside flips and back nose slides.
