thank the universe that out of all the people to help kickstart skateboarding in his way, it was Rodney Mullen a humble man, i can't imagine a better example of a human for skateboarding 🙏
Alex P other then Jake phelps, jay adams, Jeff grosso, Duane Peters, Christian hosoi, Tony Alva, Stacy Peralta, John Gibson, Alan gelfin, Eric dressen, Mark Gonzales, Natas Kaupas just to name a few
@@williamdoyle8431 im aware everyone of those people played a part, but the person of topic is Rodney Mullen , and i by all the interviews Ive seen he never identified as a punker, a drinker or even tried to be "cool" and not that i have an issue with people who identify as anything i guess he embodied all that is great with skateboarding from his abilities to his personality, once again im sure all of us and Mullen wouldn't be where we are now without everyone who played a part 🙏🌌
I have respect for Rodney and I can’t deny what he did for skating but his personality and him as a person doesn’t remotely strike you as a skateboarder. If you want someone who is a pure skater look at Andy Roy. He’s a pure and true skater TIL the end of fucking time. Plus who ever even cared about freestyle, people would only watch the freestyle contests when Rodney was competing anyway
@@williamdoyle8431 Bro enough. You just sound grumpy and disrespectful. This video was about Rodney, respect the man.
Joel Folkesson I do respect him as a skateboarder and what he did for skating but if you read his book he is constantly talking about how he is the best skater of all time and that he pioneered modern skating and for that I have a dislike towards him
It’s like watching Gandalf talk about magic, goddamn
God damn perfect analogy👍
Love your videos Charlie
It really is haha
P.R giving good P.R
Ya God is gonna damn those sorcerers
As Skaters can we make a national "Mullen" day? You know cos like, he's a legend and all?
All in Favor say "I"
I
We need a Mullen and a Hawk day. They both pioneered in their respective styles. It’s only fair, right? I bet there will be a Mullen day and/or a Hawk day in our lifetime. No doubt.
@@bz_random5804 👁️
He deserves a day! 🤔
I see Rodney Mullen I click. No questions asked. The man is a national treasure and I could watch him talk about skating for hours.
Completely agree.
Same, man. The way he speaks about skateboarding is just ethereal. What a gift of a person. Truly an inspiration in skateboarding and the artistic world in general.
I do the same. No matter what.
I could quite frankly watch him talk about ANYTHING. Skating absolutely aside. He is a really genuine person and such a kind heart. A fascinating man, such a great role model for the scene.
Same here man, I'd love if rodney made a podcast or something
This guy invented 100's of tricks and he says oh I only had a few tricks the rest were just variations. What a legend
Curt lindgren invented the kickflip in 1978 and rodney mullen modified it in 1982.
@@JudgmentallyRS nah the old school kickflip can't even be considered the same trick, the only thing it has that's the same is both are called kickflip and the board flips but the technique and look of the trick is completely different.
Think they call em gorilla flips now since you grip the board with your toes
@@lmfaodudeplz679 yeah it was technically a Toeflip
Hey man if someone flipped the board under their feet and landed and rode away in 1978 I gotta say that at least mostly counts, toe flip or popped.
Rodney Mullen invented more tricks than I've ever landed.
ikr ?
Rodney Mullen, Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods GOAT
Then anyone ever landed.
@@NickCADA Rodney is so much more important to skating than those guys are to their respective sport. It’s like if Michael Jordan invented shooting, dunking, and the basket lol
i want to see Rodney to host "do a kickflip" at least once!
YESS! HEY!! @The Berrics Let's make this happen!!
Fr tho
It would be the most polite, “Hey, would mind, if you could do a kick flip, I would appreciate that, thanks “.
He'll do you a double flip reverse late double flip it's like nothing. Lol
Basically someone was driving by and yelled "do a kickflip!"
"but im on a longborad tho?" - some random dude on his way to class being pestered by Eric koston
Yeah eric ko stone
so funny : )
first try on a friday ;)
"Come on guy!" 🤷♂️😂
PLEASE get Rodney on The Nine Club. Ask, beg, whatever.
YES
Fuck yes
Ask the Nine Club.
Can you imagine the length of that interview.
Kenny Albert if it’s any shorter than Mike V’s, I’d be surprised.
Hes so sweet and a creative genius
He stays humble, but he definitely expedited the progression of skateboarding. ❤️
Sweetest nicest sounding dude
He reminds me of Crispin Glover
How can someone who did so much for skateboarding can be so simple and humble
We need examples like Rodney.
Exactly, selfless dedication to the art of skateboarding
Often, those at the very top of their fields are the most humble, and it's the people who feel the need to prove themselves who are most succeptible to arrogance and ego.
because skateboarding isn't only a sport but an art, and as for every arts it connects to your deeper self, where love and humility actualy resides
He's not simple, he's a genius. But he's a humble genius.
The first words of the video are "My name is Rodney Mullen, I've been skating for 43 years and I invented the kickflip." Imagine being the guy who invented one of the most influential tricks in sports history.
It is mind-blowing how young skateboarding is, and how fast it has progressed. People are amazing!
@@berrics the skating is on fire these days including all the equipment, defo..amazing..but remember the late 80s early 90s.. The first time seeing public domain and the progression to video days.. Such a small scene that has exploded to huge proportion. I could never have imagined having skateparks in every town and city, indoor and outdoor. Fantastic for the kids etc
We had to build our own with stolen wood from building sites.. Great days.. The days when Vans, Airwalk and Etnies did their thing,.. Adidas and Nike did something else... Till the baggy time came with bearing cover wheels.. Again.. Great days in skateboarding. Respect to all who see the light..
@@berrics 4000 vids welldone!
@@Fvkhh The late 80s - early 90s was just insane time in terms of progression. Like there was many never-been-even-heard-of tricks in pretty much every video. It's insane to think of it now. Back then it was just something of a norm. :D I'm eternally grateful being able to live that perioid of time in skateboarding. I still remember it so well when I saw Rubbish Heap the very first time, when Rodney picks up a regular skateboard after Jeremy Klein breaks his freestyle board. MINDS... WERE... BLOWN... :)
@@blaablaa22 100% dude.. No insta, no UA-cam.. No high fashion, no cell.. Just skateboarding, local shop, new videos, magazines, demos and skaters.... Flip it 30 and we have Louis vittong or some shit plus the Olympics on the horizon.. Unless covid was sent by God to stop it.. I have to say though the Tony hawk game style tricks I see on rails especially.. Blow my mind.. Watching evolution.. But done Switch.. Amazing.
“I did a 360 flip and nobody noticed.... so I did a double 360 flip...”
"Maybe they'll get it then"
lol
That's what I like to call a720 flip. In fact I've always dreamed of being able to do one! 😎
@@hittingtax2670 he added another flip to it. so thats a double 360 flip. basicly he did a 360 shov double kickflip
@@nomercy4chomos893 720 shuvit*
vid got 1 Dislike from that guy in Madagascar who did the first kickflip.
🤣
The other 8 witnessed it go down
Phenomenal lol
@Youssef Twiiza how is that racist lol
mullen is older than that film.
I love how he introduced himself even though every skater knows who he is
Possibly because of his humbleness. He’s not the type to expect everyone to know who he is
He's just a guy "clickin' around" after all :p
Every time Rodney talks about skating you can really hear him pour all of his heart and emotion in it. Sounds like he's on the verge of tears of happiness all the time and it really shows his love for the sport.
Man, Rodney is so humble. “I guess” I invented the kickflip.
@Cam Rocket yes and rodney brought both into the streets and flatground and pop so... 😉 There is no question about.. Rodney invented the streetskating as it is known these days. He did not invented skateboarding but he had for sure the biggest impact so far
and when he said he gets nervous around Koston 😭
rodney "yeah i guess i invented the universe or whatever" mullen
I love the way he speaks with passion.
Manuel (Mogely) Herrera you can tell he loves it so much, it’s awesome
Just watched your new vid. Go check out Mogely's channel people. Qual content 👌
I'm surprised you didn't laugh in the middle of this post.
Ryan Balara what
you have similar spark in you Moges
best. guy. ever. PERIOD.
True
I love hearing him speak. He's my favourite public speaker in the world.
he speaks from his heart, you can just tell how much he loves skating
He should be president. But someone so humble would never successfully manipulate the system.
I literally named my UA-cam profile after this guy when i was 8. My greatest influence in skating!
prodandmullen good choice. Prod is buttery.
I had an old myspace and called myself Rodney Mullen kid lol. Email was the same then too with AOL
@@PhaseSkater this is more my era....my brain wouldn't let me think of how young someone had to be to start a youtube channel at 8 years old lol.
@@jamesordwayultralightpilot maybe he's born -96 or something. UA-cam came 2004ish, right?
I literally just smile when i see his face on a video, its like looking at the soul of skateboarding. Rodney your literally the brightest soul out there what you've done for people can never be put in to words. Thankyou!
All the love brother.
A true legend, this man is like skate yoda
The yoda of skateboarding 😂 that’s amazing
Best description of Mullen ever.
Flick the board you must.
exactly 👍👍
Junji Ito that should be on a shirt
That ZERO board in the background! Now that is the ultimate honor.
Him and Thomas are the greatest in my opinion. They've given so much to the sport and world of skating it isn't even funny. Hawk is like the Stan Lee of skating.
I think Hawk as the Stan Lee and Mullen as the Jack Kirby is a pretty damn good analogy. Both incredible creators, but one comfortable in the spotlight and the other less so, and the latter being the more artistic and creative of the two.
Thank god those two are friends because if they hated each other that would fucking suck.
@@TheKyleMark Exactly!
@@TheKyleMark That is a perfect analogy. Now just to explain to people who Jack Kirby is xD
"My name's Rodney Mullen" Dude is a legend and still introduces himself.
Rodney Mullen is such a wholesome person. Extremely humble. The way he talks is so calming. Mad respect for him!
"I just spazzed out" yes TF you did Rodney.
Should be called spazzedflip
@Cam Rocket Rodney Mullen invented the flatground ollie, Gelfand invented the first ollie in vert.
@Cam Rocket Curt invented what we would call an "old school kickflip". Rodney invented what today is called a kickflip. Why are you lying to make one of the coolest, humblest dudes in the world, look bad?
Honestly he's such a wholesome and humble guy
We need a movie in which skaters are messing around with time travel and Eric Koston ends up in 80s Florida yelling "do a kickflip" just to troll people. But he ends up yelling it at a kid who's skating on his own. The boy spasms out and does the first kickflip ever. Boys name is Rodney and Koston gives him a t-shirt and some wheels.
😂 let’s do this! 🎬
@@berrics bet, short film time
We need a movie about Rodney Mullen
@@dannywilliams3764 i will literally watch any video with rodney mullen in it. period. so, yes.
Cool idea, and not to be 'that guy', but wouldn't it take the originality/innovation away from Mullen? Back to the future/Chuck Berry conundrum
My hero!
Started skating after watching this dudes 'tape' in Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 when they mixed his footage from Opinion with AFI! Good memories. Thank you Rodney.
Ahh, you seem to like AFI. A man of culture, I see!
@@Patrick_Andrews917 That's me!
Rodney is the one guy who doesn’t have haters. No one can hate this man. Humble, genuine and you can hear the love and passion he has for skating by the way he talks about it. Legend.
i got to skate with Rod and Gershon at my old indoor park in Geelong, one of the best days of my life.
Big thanks for the demo and letting the crew get down as well.
Please stay safe.
That is so sick! ✨
Gershon Mosley? Damn that's a throw back!
Gershon was ahead of his time, doing switch tres during runs and had huge kickflips. Love his part in Globe's Opinion, that was my first skate video.
@@Widderic Yo ^^^^
my fist skate vid was ramp riot, wow.
43 years skating. WOW, this man did so much for skateboarding. I stopped skating years ago but Rodney is one of those guys that you never forgot even as time goes by.
I’ll never forget getting to meet Rodney in St.Louis when I was a teen in the late 90s He tagged along on tour with the blind team, Ronnie Creager, Lavar McBride,Gideon Choi and those guys. It was a great day. Now I feel old lol
People have no idea how much of a blessing it is to have a originator be this humble in speaking in the origin of his creation, this story is parallel to anyone that’s ever been the originator of anything that caught on in a culture, from iphones to jay-z’s music. Luckily we have Rodney Mullen who has the blessing of being naturally humble to peek into the mind of what it’s like to be the originator.
if anyone is interested he has a biography called the mutt and it’s great, if you enjoy mullen check it out
“To me it was just another trick”, what a legend!
Was obsessed with this guy as a kid. Used to watch his parts in the THPS games over and over again
Such a humble guy I could listen too him talk about skateboarding all day amd still want to listen to him even more
At the moment I’m surfing and skating and I have been for about 6 years and I got to say skateboarding culture is the best thing in the world to be a part of this like when you see another skater do a kickflip or tre or wathever your so happy for them because you know every single step that they went through you know how they’ve been looked down on by society that’s what brings us all close so Thankyou ❤️🤘🏽
So humble !!!
Such a genius!!!
A true Picasso on a skateboard!!
Light years ahead of anyone on a skateboard !!
I fucking love you MUTT !!!
Damn.
I discovered Rodney Mullen's skate video on THPS2 in 2000.
The things I was witnessing were unlike anything the other skaters were doing.
This dude was like a real-life cheat code.
For the longest time my friends and I referred to him as "God Mode" or "Perfect Balance"
22 years now since I first saw him skate and I still get the same feeling now when watching him as a 32 year old man as I did then as a 10 year old boy.
Thanks for the memories.
SAME!! i was 10 then, 27 now, but there is no other piece of media that paved my future path as much as THPS2 did. not even half a gigabyte proved to be so formative i would literally be living another life at the moment, would you believe that?
This man is so great. The way he talks and views things is so different in the best way possible. I love hearing him talk about skating.
Dammit rodney, why’d you have to be so cool and humble at the same time? Regardless, kickflip underflip is my fav of all time..crazy!
Half cab kickflip underflip is mine
Brad Welch yup..any variations of that underflip are just mind boggling..
Rodney Millen is the father of modern skateboarding and deserves this title more than anyone else. He represents the strong social bond of the skateboarding community and i can't thank him enough for it. Thank you Rodney, for everything you did for the best sport in the world. Love ya man!
So humble,so well spoken.The way he talks about skateboarding is a art form in itself.
43 years man, wow! Rodney Mullen is one of if not the original creator of modern flat ground and skating in general. Thank you Rodney Mullen!!
I never thought I could love this dude more, then I notice the smith grind Zero deck in the background.
When you give a genius a skateboard cool shit is just bound to happen eventually. Thanks Rodney!
I started skating in the 90s, and always loved mullen. Although freestlye wasn't that hip. I have so much respect for him what he has done for skating in general. But also the humble attitude, he's truly a gem in skateboarding and skateboard history. And for me he's an example to stay grounded. Best of luck to him from the Netherlands. Cheers,
Rodney exhales the most calming speaking ever. I cant explain what this man is, I feel like he is aware he is a legend, but at the same time, doesnt feel like one, extreme humble guy. Him and Tony were the first people Ive ever looked up in life. The two guys I most want to meet in this life.
the last sentence hit hard
This was so awesome. Thank you Barrics and thank you Rodney.
Every morning I wake up first thing and check the internet for new Rodney Mullen related content... this is a good day
the world needs more Rodney Mullen!
I love how humble he is, I mean he invented the trick that has become almost synonymous with skateboarding.
Greatest skater of all time:
Starstruck by other good skaters
Credits his popularity to others
Doesn't boast about his influence
A treasure in human form.
doesn't boast about his influence? lol have you watched the bones brigade documentary that most of the real skate world laughed at his portion of? he basically painted himself out to be some kind of mythical figure who discovered and then passed down ancient secrets. talk about self-aggrandizement (read: bs)
Seeing this makes me so happy, i just finished reading his book and it left me feeling hollow without it. Seeing new rodney content is a blessing. I consider him my hero. Love the mullen content♥️♥️
Love this guy! I remember when I started playing the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games and unlocked his tape doing those amazing tricks. I was absolutely mesmerised by it. Today, knowing more about Rodney and his tremendous impact on skateboarding, it makes me very happy to see that he’s an amazing human being as well, humble, honest and truly LOVES skateboarding. You’re such an inspiration Rodney! Thank you and the all the many amazing skaters in the community. And thank you to the Berrics channel for always bringing the coolest stuff to us!
Invents the most iconic flip trick that gets replicated in any film, show, or animation where there's a shot of a dude riding a skateboard.
"I don't want to make it seem like a big deal."
Too late Rodney.
Finnish Oltermanni cheese commercial: dude made of cheese riding around a pile of cheese and makes kickflips.
To be fair, we're the ones that make a big deal about it. He's downplaying it pretty hard. Which is endearing as hell.
@@BrokenGodEnt that was TheSamuraiApocalypse's whole point, that it IS a big deal, hell its a massive deal, it is basically one of the core fundamentals on which all modern skateboarding is built, and yet Rodney is so humble he doesnt want to claim it as a big deal himself....
i invented the kickflip guys. Chill
I love that he's so humble about everything. What an inspiration.
The humility that Rodney speaks with is unbelievable. Don't know if there is anyone in any sport, let alone skateboarding that has pushed the boundaries of their sport so much and this man talks with absolutely ZERO ego. Thank you so much to him for helping skateboarding be what it is today and being such a great role model technically, mentally, and spiritually.
Hey Rodney. i work at a certain natural foods market, and I saw you and I was flabbergasted,and did not want to disturb your evening. (It was close to closing time). Just Wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration you are to my brother and I, and how much we both respect you for bringing these tricks to life for us so that we could try them. What I wanted to say to you that night, is thank you for the many years of your dedication and inspiration. Have a great day.
"There could be some kid in Madagascar " man, what a legend

I wish there was more Rodney content out there. The man has such a unique perspective on literally everything I could happily listen to him talk about anything for hours. Thanks for this quality upload
Hearing/seeing Rodney talk always makes me feel at peace. What an absolute madlad, such a humble legendary dude. His passion for skateboarding is so motivating
Leave it to Rodney to land a kick flip a few hours after he starts trying it. Basically no one can do that nowadays, and he did the first one within one day. Truly mind blowing.
This man has done some of the most technically challenging tricks, decades before anyone else would even attempt them. I'm certain that some of them haven't been done since.
You don’t typically see anyone landing 360 flip darkslides consistently 😂 nowadays. Truly ahead of his time.
Dude, Rodney is just special. ❤️
Greetings from Estonia 🇪🇪
YOU ARE KING 👑 RODNEY!
Rodney "The Inventor" Mullen. The world thanks you kind sir. 🙏
*This dude is freaking LEGENDARY!! 🔥*
Rodney is such a genuine, awesome guy. We need more Rodneys
I'm 51 and getting back into skateboarding, but I can't do much between limited skill and old knees. Rodney is totally inspiring me to attain more, in every aspect of my life.
6:30 is such a tease !
We want a full 1 hour video session with the Mutt 👑 !!!
(And as a bonus - do it live-stream so we can ask him questions in real time)
Good luck keeping in under 1day
Thanks Rodney for being the legend that you are and truly pushing skateboarding with the creative genius that only you could have!!!!!!!!
So much respect, thanks for kicking the boulder loose that lead to the avalanche that is street skateboarding and skateboarding in general...and for talkimg about that bridge to Natas and Jason Lee!
I landed my first tre flip today. Thank you Rodney!
sweet gaming setup in the background.
This is like Dr Heimlich saying “it’s just a variation of a hug”
We need a #Mullenday , he is one of the must humble person you will find , and he deserve all our respect!! A true inspiration.
One of my biggest personal influences as a skater and 1 of my idols hands down! Till this day I STILL bust out freestyle at the skate part and young kids come up to me asking "What was that trick?" I tell em "Look up Rodney Mullen"
Imagine his grandchild going "Yeeeeeah right, sure you invented the kickflip, Grandpa."
Inspiration... thanks Mullen!
Rodney is the man. Thank you Berrics and Rodney for making this happen. Love hearing these stories. You guys should have a podcast.
The pure passion Rodney has when he speaks really is something beautiful, I haven’t rode since I broke my back in motorcycle wreck but watching Rodney’s videos is about to make me build another board
I wanna take shrooms with this guy. And I've never taken any. But this is the guy
hi i love watching ur vids
G nigga he said it once
@G Shrooms? Drugs?
Shrooms aren't drugs. You have a lot to learn. Psilocybin is a medicine, and natural. Not like the synthetic drugs we chemically create.
There's a reason Psilocybin is used to treat depression and to help those who are dying come to terms with their deaths. It's one of the most beautiful substances life has blessed us with.
Cee Truth drugs are another word for medicine, along with other definitions of course
@@camb6818 Right, but if we were to discuss this semantically, then it can accurately be affirmed that both words have their own meanings, regardless of any interplay between them.
Psilocybin is only viably labeled as a drug because it's an illegal, controlled substance; however, it is not an addictive substance - ironically, it helps to cure addiction (as well as depression and death woes, as I mentioned). A medicine promotes healing, whether it's physiological or otherwise. A drug does as well, however, "drug" is the pharmacological term for a substance used as medicine, and these substances are mainly synthetic, and mainly serve as a catalyst to the body's chemical processes.
You're not wrong, but a derogatory perception is usually associated with the word "drug", predominantly when used to describe a recreational substance - but Psilocybin is much more than that. In fact, continued use of Psilocybin doesn't inspire a recreational use of it - and I say this both from experience and an understanding of it.
Even today, Semantics is a dominant field in Philosophy, because it governs language and our understanding of it, as well as the symbols we use to define the world and things around us, so it's important to garner expanded perceptions of language/words that may seem or feel limiting. It's important to recognize distinctions between these terms because the two aren't mutually synonymous, yet they can be (as you said). My only point was that Psilocybin falls under the definition of "medicine" much more strongly than "drug". In fact, the only definable way (as I mentioned above) that it is considered a drug is through the fact that it's an illegal substance that (usually, first timers) are prone to using in social settings (which I highly do not recommend).
This dude’s the defenition of having no stress
actually he dealt with SO MUCH STRESS for a long period of time when he was pro for swatch, A team ,world industries and plan b when his buddy mike died
He's the opposite of that. He's constantly stressed, even now. He doesn't even enjoy being around other people. He does it because he feels it's his duty and people ask. (Not my words, his.)
@@Nomad_Skateboarding True humility.
@@Nomad_Skateboarding is that from a video?
Isn't it great that all the leading skaters like Rodney are so humble, it.sets it apart from most other sports.
Reading his book and listening to him and just how humble it can be. Skating can really be the best way to be you.
I fking love skateboarding. I'm so thankful to be a part of the unity for it. First tre flip I ever did was fakey because I couldn't do it going forward regular. Good stuff.
I cant even kickflip or tre flip properly after 10 years of skating but I can fakie kickflip and big flip with ease. Skateboarding is whacked sometimes.
DO A MAGIC FLIIIIIIP!
The legend. Thanks for everything Rodney. Cheers from El Salvador.
Digital92Ghost bro be safe out there! skate forever!!! maybe we'll meet one day!!
One of these days dude!
Forever the truest OG of street skating. Thanks for creating such an art, Rodney. Shred on.
“Ollies were just a better way to get up curbs”
Basketball has Michael Jordan.
Skateboarding has Rodney Mullen.
No comparison at all. Michael Jordan is a complete asshole, Mullen is likeable and humble.
@@jdogstube not to mention Mullen invented street skating. Jordan was the shit at basketball no doubt. But everyone already knew how to dribble.
If all basketball has is Jordan than it’s a good thing the season got cut short because not shit would happen.
Oh right. Basketball is boring.
@@jdogstube I'm talking in terms of legacy status, not attitude.
@@franchisepeat Jordan revolutionized his respective game much like Mullen revolutionized the sport of skateboarding.
I've had 1 or 2 "Mullen-brain" days, the only day I ever landed 360 flips for example. That state of flow is amazing, wish I could skate more these days.
Rodney fascinates me, he just loves skating so much and you can see that he gets lost in himself when he thinks about skating. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us Rodney.
I can see Dustins kickflip crook in my head too... very nice choice rodney
