I love Rodney Mullen so much, what a wholesome, beautiful human being.
Heβs the kinda guy I wanna invite to my backyard barbecue
@@moraj3764 hes like the nicest guy ever, seriously ive met him
As a kid I always assumed the Kickflip was some ubiquitous thing as old as the skateboard itself, when I found out he invented it in the 90s it blew my mind
No doubt man...seems like just one of the most genuine people on this planet, not to mention one of the greatest skaters of all time...his humility is refreshing to see these days.
The best street skater to walk the earth
Rodney Mullen: *Gazing into Tony Hawk's eyes, genuinely thrilled to see him again*
Tony Hawk: "So why do you suck so bad?"
LMAO!
Damn. I wasn't prepared for that comment. ItΕ 4 a.m. and I'm pretty sure the neighbours called the cops on me (again) for bursting into a 2 minute laugh/cry seizure (again)
That was like kicking a puppy when it comes to greet you
@@discofoxxy Seizures aren't healthy, man. Especialy if the police shows up.
Even you have better stats
Rodney is such a nice guy man brings a smile to my face every time I see him in any interview. Love that guy.
I meet him last fall, one of the most humble and gracious guys ever. I told him that he inspired me to start skating and you could tell it made his day, even though heβs probably heard that a thousand times
A little too nice.. great man overall
Literally the most humble guy ever ever
Yeah, he seems like such a loveable, down to earth, kind soul. Rodney is great!
just commented the same, then deleted when recognised you were faster :D
Rodney is genuinely the closest to a Skate God there could be. Inventing almost every flip trick, having been such an inspiration for so many, while always being so wholesome, humble and genuine. The GOAT.
him and tom penny
I loved it when they added flatland tricks in whichever THPS it was and you could finally actually be Rodney properly...
Rodney Mullen is the absolute most down to earth innocent humble awkward guy in the world yet remains the best skateboarder in the world. What a guy.
@Ghost Enybodykiller then how do you explain easter?
@Ghost Enybodykiller Jesus existed. He was just a con man/cult leader
@Ghost Enybodykiller well there's evidence and documentation of places he visited in his life so he did live on this planet. But like i said he was a con artist. The greatest con artist in history
@Ghost EnybodykillerI'm claiming he was a human who existed and nothing more. You're right that things get distorted through history. I believe from my own research that he existed. However, no, i don't believe he was a Messiah ot the Son of God or whatever. I was raised in church but as I've gotten older and with how many religions out there that exist. I don't know what's true and what's bullshit and maybe it's all bullshit. But i try to respect people's beliefs or non belief.
Rodney is my church
I came here for nostalgia not to almost cry watching Rodney almost cry.
rodney almost cries every time he talks from the passion seeping out of him
Seems like such a cool, humble guy!
Seriously, Rodney's passion in everything he does is enviable I love it
@Mike G i really love slobbering on a big throbbing veiny coc k. as a grown man, i feel like its my right to cuddle with my man and grind up against him until i feel that bulge press against my cheeks
@@Rhapbus1 So, I was reading these comments and fucking died with laughter when I got to the end of these replies. LOL. Jesus bro, you deserve heaven just for your efforts tonight!
You can just feel the pure excitement in Rodney's voice whenever he talks to Tony. This is a man that loves what he does so much and that just adores the friends he's made because of it.
He talks so highly of the other skaters. Crazy considering heβs the best one in the group (for the most part). He loved the community and all they done together and just seems so happy to have taken part.
Gotta love Rodney! An amazing human being β€οΈ
His happines and genuine personality is something to envy.
He's got a weird vibe
@@brandonw6139 being genuine and happy is weird and that's sad lol
I swear that when Rodney thanked Tony for organizing this my eyes got watery. A big part of my childhood rests with these guys! Would have loved to see Thomas, Reynolds, Lasek, Burnquist and Rowley though.
Bucky and Bob were great. I was impressed Bob could skate goofy or regular no problem. Remember when Bob accidentally ran into Shaun White in vert doubles?
It irritates me that instead of those guys they got Jack Black. Who has zip to do with the original games. Also not to be THIS guy but... Literally asking about clothes is pretty pandering
i agree, would have love to seen reynolds and rowley. then again i have a bias for street skaters like mullen more.
u could feel the love in his words
sAme here i started cryiong with rodney he is so beautiful
Rodney Mullenβs stats were the worst because he is a legend and they wanted to make playing with him harder.
Yeah, otherwise there'd be no reason to have any other character.
Only character I ever used anyways lol
I feel like everyone wouldve had lower stats then...
He's still my first pick when revisiting those old games.
Dude legit invented half of the most well known tricks.
Rodney is so wholesome, just a clearly infectiously happy person to be around.
Steve is too
You should watch Rodney's TED talk
I got the impression he wanted to have a genuine talk and Tony's like sorry man I gotta ask you a stupid question for this UA-cam channel.
@@realtonestar4342 he seems very awkward and uncomfortable in his own skin, despite also seeming very lovely
The rumor has always been aspergers. Whatever it is. Heβs got a beautiful mind for real. Fascinating
I remember being a broke kid in Jersey, skating everyday with my homie Eric. He used to laugh at me so much because my skateboard held with duct tape. Then one day The Muska pulled up in a black SUV after a demo at our local park and threw me his board, wished me a merry christmas (?) and drove off in the sunset. One of my most cherished childhood memories.
Too bad about how things turned out with Eric, though
Dude thats awesome! I remember skating in jersey when a black van pulled up and abducted me, then I was threatened with a chainsaw
Funny, I have the same memories. Crazy.
Youβre the guy from THUG. In the park
That's totally a fever dream. Muska's SUV was white.
Even though Rodney is one of the stars, you can tell he truly felt the way fans felt out of all of them. "Thank you so much for bringing us together." It's like the people who love this game were projected through him. Truly an amazing person.
Dude. When Rodney comes in he's literally genuinely excited to be with the gang. So happy.. What an amazing experience to witness.
you can tell that rodney enjoys the meeting so much. so wholesome
Viα»t An Yes
For real, there's literally zero drama in the skate community, just guys who love being around eachother no matter how many years pass by in between
Rodney Mullen is one of the most humble and all around good person. I met him one time when I was a young skater at a small skate park. He was nice to every single skater, spent time talking to all of us, cheered for people that landed a solid tricks, gave trick tips to all of us, gave out free stuff. Mind you this wasn't a paid for event, just bumped into him. He is just a genuine nice guy, that really cares about the next generation of skateboarders. My dad was there and it totally changed his perception of skateboarders (this was before it was mainstream). As well it is something I still remember to this day, 15 years later.
Tony and Mike V came to my local park years ago and the police chased them off. It was bs
Beautiful dude π€
@@sick6nightmare I don't get them chasing off the Hawk, however as a long time Mike V fan, I can totally understand why they may have chased him off lmao
@@Admiral_Potato41 their reasoning was because they showed up and gathered a huge group without contacting the city first. I don't even think the sheriff knew who hawk was lol
Thatβs an awesome story and Iβve got no reason to doubt it as itβs fucking Rodney Mullen after all. Dudes too humble and kind for this world
Mullen is the most genuine, down to earth, kind human being I've ever witnessed.
He always seems to have a sparkle of joy in his eyes, like he still can't believe he's able to skate full time like he always wanted, while being the most legendary name in all of street skating.
Rodney Mullen is such a genuine soul. Its always so good to see him on screen.
Daniel Simpson So true mate! Heβs a real one, lots of respect for him
Lets all just appreciate the fact that Kareem came out of hibernation and is blessing us with footage
I actually thought he had died
cheeks8112 Iβve seen him around Dallas as a judge at some skate contests last one I saw him at was like 2016.
Heard!!! What a smile too
He needs to get back on the fast track to Celebrity hood
Real shame he didn't correct everyone on what the ghetto bird actually is though
Him and Mullen looks like a simple friendly conversation, but Tony is actually talking to his biggest inspiration
But yet... it looks like it's the other way around lol
β@@Brandon2940 It's both, probably. Mullen has talked about how Tony could have gone off and just made all this money alone, but instead he brought all his friends along for the ride and shared the limelight as THPS made skating mainstream and turned these skaters into household names. Tony's a great dude, and a humble dude; there's real mutual respect there.
Hawk is a fan of Mullen because of what he did for the artistic aspect of skateboarding.
Mullen is a fan of Hawk because of what he did for the social aspect of skateboarding.
They are both very smart and humble, more skate nerds than skate punks and they know each other since the very early days.
Mullen just seems somewhat socially awkward, so whenever he gets to meet Hawk he's like 'hey man thanks for inviting me over' and Hawks like 'stop thanking me Rodney, people love having you around''
@@Diogenes2077 That's a great way to put it.
Mullen is definitely The Godfather of street skating. Hawk is king of vert. They both helped create the huge popularity together. But obviously Hawk and his game really did it. Someone else explained it better.
I probably watched Rodney Mullens video at least 1000x, I couldn't believe how amazing he was, it didn't compute how he defied gravity... He still amazes me to this day!
the 411vm one?
Which video? I wanna watch that too!
@@mcbrite sit down for this one.
ua-cam.com/video/aILeeAGr3ss/v-deo.html
This is THE rodney video from the 90s, and it's still incredible.
@@Nathan-dt2tu Thanks for taking the time! I'll watch it!
My mind couldnβt comprehend how someone could do a handstand on a skateboard, flip the board, land primo, and then flip out. It was literal sorcery to me.
I adore seeing all the love for Rodney in the comments. Heβs the absolute best and such a good soul. When art meets skateboarding.
What he has and continues to do is exactly that. When i saw his "tape" from the games.. I noticed he was always the one covered in street dirt and god knows what lol his dedication and the love he has for skating is.. Well.. It's him.. They gotta make a movie about him.. "The Skater: The life of Rodney Mullen"... Or something.. Or.. A series of movies based off the Bones Brigade crew..
Why does he sound like that though?
@@BAGAKOOS β why does Tony talk like that, why does chad talk like that, why does jack black talk like that, why does Kareem talk like thatβ¦ everybody is different π€¦πΏββοΈ
ββ@@BAGAKOOS He embodies a lot of traits seen in people with high functioning autism, and that might have been something that helped drive him to focus so intensely on Skateboarding.
That could be why he has such an eccentric personality as well.
Much love for Rodney, the GOAT.
Seeing Rodney happy always puts a smile on my face.
I'm sorry to hear about your permanent smile man π
Rodney is just so pure. Always good vibes when I see him on film.
All are smiling!
He honestly looks like a meth head
@@lazym91 let's see how good you look at 53.
Rodney Mullen is like ecstatic. His happiness is contagious. I'm smiling and I got no effin' clue why!
His happiness exudes of the RAW filter guy
That's the joy of the Lord, my friend. Rodney exudes it in every ounce of his being.
@@bryanvickers Could be weed.
@@eczyYT yeah weed is ok for awhile, but Rodney Mullen is a follower of Christ, and has found true and lasting peace, hope, and joy. Sounds like a cliche man, but I'm telling you, you should try and open your heart to it because it's legit.
Rodney's style is as mindblowing today as it was when I was a kid. Truly an artist - and seems to be a great person too. Always loved him.
Can we get a show where Rodney Mullen just goes about his day. He now my go to voice/image whenever i'm having a bad day.
Dude is the definition of inner peace
Heβs like the Theo Von of skateboarding. I dig it
Day in the Life of Rodney Mullen
ikr he's such a bright person
He radiates CHILL! He's just so happy to be there with all his boys doing what they love.... that is true Joy right there
Yβall, I was 14 when this game came out. I live in the hood so to speak, but always admired offbeat things. This game changed my life, I started skateboarding because of it, and I was the only black kid I knew with a skateboard. Seeing Kareem Campbell on the game gave me the confidence to roll through my neighborhood without caring.
Although I wasnβt able to continue skateboarding very long (god gave me weak af ankles), I helped inspire other kids in the neighborhood to start skateboarding. I gave my boards away to the kids in my neighborhood and watched them do tricks I could never imagine doing. THPS changed the whole dynamic of what it meant to be a minority skateboarder, I am so grateful this game was around in my life.
Plus, THPS was dope on my Sega Dreamcast... seriously, one of Dreamcast best games ever.
Dope .
Love it! And thank you for sharing skateboarding with those kids
Wow. These days a lot of black kids skate.
@@rafaeltordilla5234 yep times change man. you gotta owe it to the og's. skating is mainstream now and no longer a counterculture. but i see that as a positive. skaters dont have to worry about asshole jocks hassling them.
agreed and enjoy my man
So clearly pro skateboarders are the nicest, coolest people of all-time.
James M I have a theory sponsored athletes get sponsored not just because theyβre good but because theyβre good people. There are plenty of great athletes that are complete jerks and companies donβt want that kind of person representing them.
If you think about it though, very few of these people were making buckets of money like Tony, theyβre skating because they love it and have such a passion for it. People that have that much passion are usually pretty great.
Corey and tony has changed all their lives Iβm sure. with the game. Given them a ton of exposure and I would guess enough money to not have to worry too much.
"the truth has been spoken"
Well when you're so good at skateboarding that you make a living from it, their satisfaction rates are off the charts. Making them infinitely chill
Chad always seems like he's living the best life. Dude is always so happy.
Rodney Mullen looks like a kindest person ever
Heβs like George Mcfly if Marty had taught him to skate instead of fighting biff lol
he is
Definitely one of the most humble people out there. He's a gem of a dude.
True True
Easily the kindest most humble skateboarder
Mullen seems like the nicest most innocent dude ever wow
Rodney Mullen was always my favorite pro skater to choose in THPS2, always wondered why his stats were THAT low lol I guess in the end it didn't matter since you got to level up the stats the more you progressed πΉ
Chad Muska was my best choice for thps
Mullen Stats had high, Rail Balance, Manual and Ollie, switch are the most important stats in the game...
Exactly he literally made street skating popular
@@gbasso666 That was my literal thought.. I always thought he was the best character to start with since his stats were the best to combo with, Air tricks in thps1 and 2 were worthless. Funny considering Tony is the vert god and the game is named after him yet vert sucks ass lol.
@Matt G Mullen was the first to do a flat-ground Ollie and like 90% of the tricks used in street. He may not have made street popular but he did make it possible.
Dude Rodney looks so happy to be there, Iβve missed him so much
Gang Starr, above the clouds reigning down. Chad is one of the coolest dudes in skating. Still have my Muska rising sun deck. Wish this was longer, I don't think people get how big of a deal this is.
RIP Guru
Muska and Mullen where my 2 favs growing up. Chad is just so chill he's hard not to like
I'm still hiding weed in my muska hi tops lmao
Hey I just turned 28 couple days ago, so not a youngin but I understand how big of a deal it is!!!! But kids younger than me... yeah. Idk maybe we need Nyjah or someone to grab a boom box during their next crook lol if he even could that was fricken gnarly
My brother got a shorty's board for christmas and my tiny self got this bigass cabalero cruiser and I wasnt happy I love it now but at the time I loved Chad muskas stuff
"The Avengers" from my childhood.
ASSEMBLE!
That's actually a really beautiful way to put it.
Nice!
I'm not even a skateboarder, but I can relate to this comment. Same goes for the Jackass crewπ.
you litereally just figured out the best way to describe how I feel about this video game series AND this video
"what's playing on the boombox?"
"Gang Starr"
ONE OF THE BEST YET.
@Grym There it is! "π€π₯"
BIG L REST IN PEACE
@@blk1048 Do you wanna mess with this?!
RIP GURU!
Hahaha! I see what y'all did there.
Aw, Rodney... "Thank you so much for bringing us all together" bringing the boys back, a revisit to the day. β€οΈβ€οΈ Good on all of you. Rodney bless that kind heart of yours.
This is the dopest happiest thing Iβve seen in quarantine everyone is so upbeat and excited love this shit
Yeah they're all such nice guys (and girls) and 100% authentic.
Jablinskis video is much better
Rodney is the nicest person to ever walk this earth. I canβt imagine that heβs ever said anything negative about anyone or anything.
He really is...his ted talk was awesome and I knew Instantly when I saw gleaming the cube that he was the stunt double during the end sequence I mean those moves are iconically his
He's the nicest guy on this planet
β@@XeroFailGames Rodney was also on PhysicsGirl channel to explain how the impossible is done. He created like 80% of the tricks on street and he talks about it as if he hasn't. He changed skateboarding, loved by everyone, and still doesn't want to take credit because he is so humble that it'd take normal people another 20-100 years before we'd learn all the things Rodney brought to the table with the motivation of Daewon Song. Different styles, but helped him tons, as much as he helped others. Rodney is the Eisenstein/SchrΓΆdinger of skateboarding. Literally.

*Rodney* is one of those rare people that just by being near him you can't help but be in a good mood and smile.
He's like human Scooby Doo
Heβs no trumptard
@obglobgablob when you dont have any personality and/or opinion yourself you have to bring something else into play? im not sure xD
Was literally saying the same to myself. Such a cool dude
obglobgablob
Aww, are you gonna cry, snowflake? π€
The genuine mutual respect between Tony and Rodney is the best thing ever
I love that this re-release is gonna introduce these legendary skater's to whole new batch of fans.
Right keeps them relevant
I'm glad the game is an incredible remaster and is a big hit
Names that should be emblazoned on any enthusiast of the sportβs mind. These guys are the Mount Rushmore of skateboarding, and weβre missing some big names, too. Stacy Peralta probably being the most famous absentee.
Rodney is one of the most genuine human beings on this planet.
I feel like the true reason for Rodneyβs low stats is making him the most realistic character. He isnβt buffed by stats with any sort of assistance you have to make due with what you have, the true essence of Rodneyβs skating!
Balance is the most important thing for combos and Rodney has it all, since he's the king of manual tricks
I don't remember Rodney's stats being that low although his vert stats were below average I guess but Manual, Rail and Ollie were among the best if not the best.
Rodney Mullen is amazing. Dude is all smiles and is one of the best skaters to ever exist.
Every person hugs and thanks Tony after their interaction with him and you just know its because he's probably helped every single one of them at some point.
Jackbro82 damn dude heβs still got a lot of years left we donβt gotta talk about all that yet!
@Jackbro82 Same, he's such an amazing person.
Itβs crazy to think of how influential Rodney Mullen is... he basically invented street skating and yet such a humble dude.. legend
Wow, so insane actually seeing Kareem speak on film after all these years.
I donβt know if there is a more humble happier person on this planet than Rodney Mullen. This man is always in a good mood
What nobody know is that Rodney Mullen is actually Spider-Man, that is why is so friendly
That would actually explain his abilities on a skateboard. π§
Your Friendly Neighborhood Rodney-Man.
So we're getting Spiderman in the THPS remaster after all. π€
Spider-Man was Tony Hawk actually lol
Sony owns him.. π
Rodney is always the happiest person. Look at him, I just love that. He deserves it.
βItβs louder than a Metallica concert in there, Iβve got bulletproof sidings put in, and seven screens for my DVD player.β - Chad Muska
The Chadillac Muskalade
"Muska, chilling chilling, Where Australia?!" -Also Chad Muska
See? That's how you hook it up!
I mean, what's he done? Popped down a few rails, and he's travelling the world living like a king!
Here, Merry Christmas.
Thug was my favorite game ever
When I first played THPS and knew very little about skateboarding culture or pro skateboarders, I watched the tapes of all the skaters and was so amazed, but when I got to Rodney Mullen I literally couldnβt believe what I was seeing. Then I go on to find he invented the modern day skateboard and damn near every flat ground trick there is. So I think βwow, this guy probably has every right to be prideful or full of himself for all that heβs doneβ and then I watch interviews of him and itβs immediately obvious that heβs one of the most selfless and humble people ever, and without a doubt in his field. Give him his flowers while heβs here, he goes up and above the title of legend and letβs be grateful that he was born in the era of film and cameras because thereβs no way people would believe what heβs done otherwise.
Crazy seeing footage of Kareem, never saw an interview of him or even heard his voice. Trip
He was always the character i'd play too.
Damn this is so trippy. I was 6 YEARS OLD when this game came out. They're all basically my dad's age now but their hearts are all still in the same place. Love these guys.
And, your dad is in what age range?
Keep that in mind when you see someone who is older acting goofy and playful. Living sucks the life out of you. But luckily, skateboarding and art keep you young.
Kids heckling Tony to do the 900Β° is like people heckling musicians to play Free Bird.
hahahaha exactly
No it would be like asking musicians to play the double novelty guitar. Freebird is easier than a 900
Or Two Joints by Sublime if you play Reggae. lol
or heckling skaters to do a kickflip
Or like asking a ten year old to do a 1080...... oh wait that shit happens all the time on youtube.....
Kareem Campbell is such a legend to me as a Black skater πΉπͺπΎ I know he inspired a lot of us seeing him in the game shredding ππΎ
iβm white and i play him a lot, heβs super coolπ
God i wish Bob could've been there, those blue and white eΕ shoes hit different after the Philly x games
Adam Rodriguez same feeling
I'm wishing the same but with Bam
alright itβs time for the Brazilian actionnn
Remember Bob's backflip up down right err something lol
@Gamecore this was done before shit got bad.
Tony: Why you have the worst stats.
Rodney: That's my base form.
Btw Darkslide blew my mind back then. Still is
@Wise Man and no one likes you
@Wise Man whats wrong little guy?
@Wise Man I can tell by ur comments that you are a wise man
@Wise Man that's no way to talk about your grandmother
@Wise Manit's cute that you're letting gram gram take you on a date son. Will give me and your mother some alone time π
Nostalgia hitting me right in the feels
Rodney Mullen is such a genuine dude. Just really authentic guy who shows his emotions honestly and as they without putting up the slightest front. Very special dude - both as a skateboarder and as a person in general.
Kareem Campbell looks exactly the same as when the game was released and still kills it on a skateboard
You mean, extremely blurred and pixely?
@@EcnalKcin no, black
black dont crack
Ya know, it's weird. Video games keep people inside but Tony Hawk's made me pick up a skateboard and go outside. Best childhood ever.
Dude for real.
So Blessed
Me too.
Same. and I never learned how to skateboard lol Still went back to playing THPS as much as I could until I was out of high school.
Same for the graffiti games. Good point mate. Thats really rare
Rodney Mullen is an absolute diamond of a person, he's always so happy and humble
Rodney's humility just pours throughout his interview, man is such a treasure.
I love Rodney Mullen! So chill, humble and always so happy. Such a big genius in such a happy and shiny personality!
Joshua Cruz Heβs a devout Christian, I wondered why he wore a cross necklace
The best part of this video is seeing the love and respect Mullen has for Tony.
rodney mullen might be the most under appreciated athlete of all time
Only by people who are completely outside skating and only know who Tony Hawk is.
To anyone with even casual knowledge of skating though... No, he's definitely not under-appreciated. Rodney is widely known and revered as the superhuman he is.
So good to see Rodney Mullen be so humble, wholesome, and happy. Honestly made me genuinely smile. Remember picking him in thps1 and watching his crazy trick videos in the early and mid 2000s.
Rodney mullen has to be one of the coolest dudes in the planet. I know Tony hawk is very humble but you know they screwed with Rodney's stats because it's the only way anyone could be better then him street skating.
He's a bad ass dude and a huge inspiration for me getting into shape and picking up a skateboard again 20 years after the last time i got on one.
He is just a genuinely happy dude. I always see Mullen smiling and laughing, no matter what is going on.
It's not some conspircay on Tony's half. Also Tony isn't a street skater never was. He was a vert skater and Mullen Was a flatland skater not a street skater. The two dont compare.
Kareem was underrated in the classic! Dudes dope af and his signature was raw!
I was always Kareem. I wasnβt even into skateboarding but he became my favorite skater of all time because of the game.
Same, I played the living shit outta Kareem
He like never aged
When I first started playing, I had no idea who Kareem Campbell was. Once I found out the button combo to the Ghetto Bird I did it off of everything. Easily my favorite skater in game and real life.
Steve caballero looks more like his thps 2 model now than when he was younger.
xDDDDDDD
Thats so accurate lmao
He based his style on the character and grew into it for sure.
Damn, Rodney almost made me cry with how wholesome he is! I remember seeing his videos and being in awe
That interviewer looks just like Tony Hawk.
Wonder what he's up to these days
Yeah, but this guyβs name is Anthony
I dunno why but the interviewer reminds me of that one guy who rode down a full loop ramp
I thought his name was birdhouse
Why?
Seeing Tony and Kareem together again took me back to the days where I use to play the hell out of the THPS demo.
I'm smiling ear to ear throughout the whole entire video
I still think it's awesome how Rodney Mullen and Physics Girl got together to try and explain how awesome he was. Just a humble man.
Nobody else think that this probably means Jack Black will be a bonus character on THPS?
Are you meaning to tell me that Jack wasn't Officer Dick in THPS 2?
He wasn't in the original right. I can't remember
@@rubenalvarado3640 Yeah, had to get all the tapes on one character though if I remember correctly
I could see him having a song in there
@@TwistedThrill44 had to get all tapes with Bob burnquest I'm pretty sure
everytime i see Rodney, I just can't help but smile immensely. such an amazing soul & pioneer of the whole skate scene. THANK YOU
Watching this from my Piano, Jack hit a solid G note.
πΉ
Yeah he went higher than normal lmao
That information is literally useless. So what? Which G?
@@BeardyGit89 The high one -- duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh... ; )
@@travboat again, means nothing. Which octave? G5? G6?
I want old friends to tangibly appreciate me the way these guys appreciate Tony. changed each of their lives forever
They remastered it for their kids college tuitions lmao respect for the honesty.
This is true ππππ
LOL. Agree. I think this just shows how authentic these people are. I don't really know them , other than the game. My brother was the skater, I gave him my board (As I grew up, and put on weight, I knew gravity and physics were NOT on my side LOL). But it's him and the skaters at Miranda Fair I have to thank for telling me how to get in before it opened, so I could be front in line to meet a certain Gillian Anderson. Treasured Memory...
When THPS first came out... my internet searches consisted of Jessica Alba and Rodney Mullen. LOL
Your house had internet?
Damn internet was to expensive for us, we had to do with drawing pictures of Jessica Alba that looked like a crooked Rodney Mullen.
@@thembutton2226 Right? Damn fancy pants over here
@83rdox hell yeah. Could have built a fort with the amount of discs we got
@83rdox Oh, you mean those free shiney frisbees that came to your house every month?
Rodney is just so humble, Chad is just so playfully funny, Eric is irrationally realistic. Man I miss these guys π
I remember the first time I unlocked Rodney's video. My mind was blown. I didn't even know who he was because I wasn't in to skateboarding that much. Then to later learn that he also invented all those crazy tricks he was doing...honestly the game should have been called Rodney Mullen's Pro Skater.
Rodney just looks so appreciative being there, man gives off such a positive vibe
This the first time I'm hearing Kareem Campbell speak EVER in my life
Dude sure looks young for 46
Matt Nelson Forreal, man looks great for his age, he popped up and I was like holy shit that canβt be Kareem dude looks way too young
All these guys look pretty good for their age let's be honest
And you know what they say
"Black don't crack" lol
Must not be a dgk fan π€·ββοΈ
That guy looks like Jablinski Games
Gaz lol was thinking the same
Crazy right? i thought im the only one thinking that.
Ugh cringe its actually pewdiepie smh
Straight identical
OOOOH I knew I saw him before! You can say he's his clone or something!
I love Rodney so much, I could listen to him talk for hours. He's so passionate about his interests
Iβm assuming SpiderMan was too busy to show? What a shame
7:17
Well he is probably in hiding after Mysterio outed him in Far From Home.
Heβs there, he just didnβt bring the outfit...
@@badreligion1231 rey mysterio did what?
Did you not hear Tony Hawk say he was Spider-man? He showed up.
It was so nice to see Rodney Mullen again. That man remains an inspiration to me as a human being as much today as he was 20 years ago in back in school.
Seriously Rodney is the nicest guy on the planet would love you talk to him!
I was the producer on the commercial for the very first game. Still one of my all time favorite projects. I remember Reilly totally ripping. I still have the board Tony rode and signed for me hanging up in my house. That game was so fun.
Who else was hoping Kareem would make an appearance after clicking.
I played as him when I first started because his stats were the most levelled out.
I was just thinking about Kareem the other day. I miss the old days of skating. Dude looks like he hasn't aged a day.
City staaaaahs
Dope to see him in here.. dude looks good for 46
@@MLag23 Black dont crack and that's a fact jack
I'm loving this, it's so nice to hear from everyone, especially Rodney!
Aww.... No Bob Burquist? That was the only one I played as
Same
No Bam Margera either :/
Bob spends a lot of time in brazil with many projects, he's kind of like the Tony Hawk of Brazil. I imagine he couldn't make it to LA for this day because of his commitments down there whereas all these skaters live not too far from LA. Bob is actually in the game though.
@@TheAudicymusic ... true
Nor Bucky Lasek. :(
I always played as Elissa in THPS 1 because her grind stats was the highest (I think?) Nice to see her make an appearance here.
Rodney Mullen immediately became my role model when I first saw his "I Love Skateboarding" video on THPS3. And he has been my role model ever since. The nicest, most talented, most important man in skating.
Heartily agreed, bro! He was always my first character to play through the career modes with in every one of the THPS games... most likely because I was hoping that I would get anther super sick video of him tricking out haha.
all the way, the single most important skater to exist. Tony gets #2 tho lol :p
@@alovely4478 Totally! I have watched so many Rodney docs and clips and I just love how he basically reinvented modern skateboarding..! He basically melded freestyle with the "new" street style in a way that nobody else likely could've.
As a lot of the pros have said, "yeah that trick..? oh yeah, he created that one. Oh that other trick..? yep, he created that too." lol. Just brilliant- I could watch him for hours. Not to mention the most humble of human beings....... Nothing but a top notch person.
And Tony gets a pass for whatever he wants just for bringing all of this shit together. I wouldn't even know what real and modern skateboarding was without him, so he's definitely also the man haha
For some Rodney goodness (and some rad quarantine watching fare), check it:

This legitimately makes me so happy. Brings back childhood memories. Can't wait for the game yo
Crazy seeing Kareem speak I been a fan for 25 years and thatβs was a first
Hell yeah, I used to have this page from Thrasher magazine hanging on my wall that had him going hard and said Kareem The Dream in big letters, I would hang that up again today if I still had it
Jimbo P yes I was obsessed with MeNaCe skateboards as a kid!! The original DGK
One of the games had a song he did. Think its called Time for some action.
wth? in his world part he is writing a letter and speaks over it? how can you not have seen that as kareem fan?
LPShakur yeah but itβs very rare.. anyways it was rad seeing him in 2020!
I hope everyone here realises how much of a genius & important figurehead in skateboarding Rodney Mullen is. Back in the day, he was like an actual wizard. He still is. Nobody could even come close to touching him. He's an extremely nice guy, & his passion has always shone through his skateboarding. To see him still being so nice & passionate, considering he is literally the father of street skating, is so wholesome & really reminds you that, if you can find your real true calling in life, you can always be happy.
