    It's amazing watching skating evolve, ever still. When Rodney vs Daewon Round 1 came out, Rodney blew everyone away. He was hands down the best technical skater. Just around 20 years later, and this kid has unarguably exceeded Mullen's ability at least in flatground tricks, perhaps not in all around skill, for now I wonder now if THIS kid is paving the way for another phenom in another 20 years.

    Rodney Mullen must be so proud. It also kind of looks like he learned a lot of tricks directly from the Tony Hawk games. And most importantly HE'S HAVING FUN! He's not being arrogant or trying to be cool. He's just chill and having fun, which inspires those around him to do the same. I love it.

      @joshuaschmidinger3993 Рік тому

      @Nenad Popov this is true 😎👌 when I saw the way he was skating and how precise his tricks were and how he wasn't content with an OK land and had to do it right I immediately thought about Rodney mullen. This guy is only 19 so I bet he has been skating since he was 10 or even before? Japanese people train their kids to go to the store and pay for stuff and bring it back at 2 years old 🤷‍♂️

    • @joshuaschmidinger3993

      ​@Nenad Popov so thos kid started skating when he was 8 and guess who inspired him to start skating after his father(also a skateboarder) showed him a video? Rodney mullen 😊👌 I knew it, the style shows. I just looked it up. I was impressed that someone wants to work on that level, he was also trained by Brett Novak so this guy has the potential to be a legend. I grew up with Tony hawk and Rodney mullen and I don't think most of today's skaters are on that level? This guy reminded me of that level of greatness.

Had a once in a generation male gymnast, absolutely dominant female olympic wrestler, Shohei Ohtani whose no doubt in anyone's mind the greatest thing to happen to baseball since Babe Ruth (Arguably better than the Babe), and obviously this kid.

And he's so humble and nice too. No arrogance. I've subscribed to his Insta and UA-cam. Thanks for sharing this masterpiece 😊.
