Best episode so far! And best quote: You don't have to be the most talented skateboarder to do something special!
Underrated
This really was. Great story overall, it had tension, anguish, jeopardy... and a feelgood ending!
Meanwhile he has 3 "my wars"
Straight up
Pop an ollie! Feels amazing.
I've said it before and I'll say it again; The "My War" videos the best skateboarding videos you can find.
You’re not the only one who says that
Damn Right!
They really are tho!!!!
@@jeff7764 Yes he is. You’ve never said it. I’ve never said it. He says it. And he’s right.
It makes it relatable
The struggle in your head knowing you can do this trick.
Friends backing you, there every second of the way.
The anxiety of thinking someone could snake the trick before you.
Friends right there in celebration as you alone made the trick.
I love skating.
The ground we been there 😤😤😤😤
Couldn't have said it any better myself. 🤟
FUUUUUUKKKK!!😤🤬 He battled another kinker few years back !!!! Savage adrenalin/anxiety mix. All it takes is that one make. 🧠💥❤️
Me who doesn't have friends who skateboard :
Ok
I
Need
Them

Gabriel just got me so fired up to crush this spreadsheet I should have sent off hours ago.
FUCK YEAH !! EXCEL !
My War: Excel

@@rickeykoga2312 story of my college life
Holy shit, I've never seen someone coming out of a board slide with that much speed. I'm sure there's faster ones out there but he is fkn flying out of the last kink when his attempts make it to the bottom.
Catches air coming off the last kink 😱
he thought it was a shitty boardslide but i think that's what ultimately saved him in the end because he was slowly rotating through the entire thing so he didn't have to focus on leaving the rail properly he was just already there. so sick.
He kept falling forward. on the make the board looks like it's just trying to shoot out from under him..crazy. he said he was too exhausted to bail
Check out Trainwrecks part in IN BLOOM. He Kickflip front boards a big rail while going 80 miles an hr! Its the ender to his part. You canT see how fast hes actually going cus of vid quality but I had the VHS and was always like wtf why does he need that much speed?!?! and for such a gnarly trick????? ua-cam.com/video/KsWEbp0gkPU/v-deo.html
That was a combo... boardslide to rail kiss. I'm thinking thats why he had so much trouble with it as he'd have to go airborne to catch the slide on the last kink. Literally flying for a second.
This is a gnarly one. That was insane. "You don't have to be talented to make it happen" Straight up Rock Lee energy
Sickest boardslide ever glad the other dude didn’t bite his shit 🙌
Рнопе тнгош
1кг!?
😭👏🤗
I bite my turds all the time, usually after a Denver omelette
facts tho maybe they just "said" it to get him going?
@@turtlekappa7141 nah I’d really hope not, that certain situation puts so much pressure on you mentally
@@chickenbiscuitbabyyewww9580 i want too do that skateboarding ?. .
Gabriel doesn’t get enough recognition that he deserves.. His parts are crazy and he goes big!
I remember watching Damn it All and when i saw this trick, i was with a friend and he said out "thats impossible...go back" because he knows this place (its not even a spot). We musta watched Gabriel's ender like 20 times in a row, no cap. The commitment of this dude to land this, 40 hours of eating shit over and over, respect 4ever. Keep this series comin Trasher.
Those are the best moments when watching skate videos with mates. Asking them to rewind something because it was so mind blowing it didn’t register properly
Omgggg thrasher plsss do more of these!!
They had A whole series for year's.
It's up to how many skater's have raw My War Video's!
YOU can go to heaven NO MATTER WHAT YOU’VE DONE!
(Here’s how!): When a person first becomes a Christian, their entire past is automatically erased and completely forgiven by God! Simple. Yes, You heard that correctly, you will literally NOT be in trouble for a single you did in before becoming a Christian *NO MATTER HOW BAD*. (This includes crime, etc.)
So, What do you have to do in order for Jesus to clear your record? All you have to do is believe that Jesus was real, turn from your wrong doings, and start living your life by the Bible! That’s it! So yes, this is a get out of jail free card, Even robbers, gangsters, etc can make it to heaven if they turn their life around and follow Jesus!
(Mark 3:28)- “I tell you the truth, ANY sin can be forgiven.” (Except for blasphemy)
(Acts 3:19)- “Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away.”
For anyone who’s ever boardslid or has tried to boardslide a thin rail like that, let alone a kinked one, knows just how hard it is. That is one gnarly boardslide.
Boardslides on kinked rails are always fucked. I've been thrown back on a triple kink boardslide rail on the ground at a skatepark that really shook me. I got some minor whiplash from it. I can't imagine taking it to an actual set with stairs.
The best part about “My War” is watching them scream and fight through literal blood, sweat, and tears all to finally land it and shrug it off in disbelief
Had a full head of hair when he started, bald head when he landed
Never giving up is one of many things skateboarding gave me and you can apply that determination into every day life and many things. I maybe tired, hurting, bruised, bleeding, losing, but one thing I know for sure I ain't giving up I'm gonna keep going no matter what it is!! We all have that in us you just need to find it and skateboarding definitely brings that out of you.
Absolutely the greatest feeling in the world. I can't imagine the physical and emotional tension that would build up after weeks of trying the same trick, but the release and elation when you finally land something like that is very unique to "extreme athletes". Whether it's a skateboard, BMX or anything else. We all know that feeling and keep chasing it.
I'm a simple man!! Thrasher uploads a My War? I fucking CLIIIIICK.
The way it was slowly turning back too, the limp + low speed + control
Legendary
Powerfully exceptional production lads, thank you, the deathbed visions part is true, mine will be the abnormally perfect and extra-popped tre flip i did on flat at my favourite spot that one time.
I don't skate but love these videos so much. I find the mental/physical battle they face inspiring!.
I'm not even a skateboarder and I will never not watch a My War video. They're the best thing on UA-cam.
I love this era of Zero. Super gnarly, actual underdogs. Most of them probably have to work jobs, but still produce video parts like this. Fuck yeah
Jamie should pay them more he has more than enough to do so
THIS is skateboarding. The friends, the danger the make. 🤘
This is the absolute best series by far. THIS is what skateboarding is all about. Even if your war is on a much smaller scale, you can relate to what this man went through and experienced
Skateboarding is the most beautiful, loving, creative sport. I haven't been in a board in 15yrs but these videos being me back. Those feelings when you hit something in front of your mates is better than everything
Best series ever- the storytelling is always top notch.
I almost cried watching this very touching seeing how determined this guy is
This is my favorite of all the my wars, super gnarly
Probably one of the gnarliest My Wars ever
i dont even know some of these guys in these my war videos, but i swear i cry every single time.
The speed he’s getting in that rail is wild and to be going that fast for so long while also getting out of it has to be one of the hardest mental battle
So much admiration for all the men at War with these badass tricks. There’s something about doing something impossible that keeps us humans coming back for more.
I always get taken by surprise when I get super stoked on this series it’s like I forget how motivational these are until I’m in that moment where I need it the most
The fact that Gabbers had 2 parts in my war lets you know that this guy is the epitome of skating.
This episode was particularly badass. Best My War I think thus far.
Been to this rail back in the day. I remember seeing it in the Plan B Virtual Reality video and was like “who in their right mind would ever go for that…then I saw it in person and said to myself out loud, WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD EVER GO FOR THAT?!”…well, here we are boys and girls.😤
Amen. Danny Way and Pat Duffy were 100% trailblazers. Took nearly 30 years for someone to nail it down. Unreal.
i literally just showed my friends who arent into skating his damn it all video part like 2 days ago cause i was blown away by it and how little coverage it seemed to get. Then this comes out
the universe works in mysterious ways
That was the best board Slide I have seen in my life.👍
I'm crying happy tears right now
love the whole team are like limping to congratulate him... gnarly crew of vets
by far one of the gnarliest My Wars. What a fucking legend.
The harder the challenge the greater the feeling of accomplishment once it’s done.
So well spoken. Shout out to Gabriel
"My war" is the most excited skateboarding videos👍👋
Skateboarders are so absurdly, wonderfully tenacious. 40 hours of getting wrecked for 3 seconds of footage. I salute you.
This my be my all time favorite video. Not just in the "My War" series, but on the whole of youtube. I swear... This is extremely deep and inspiring. All the suffering is worth it for the thing you want most. God bless skateboarding. God bless skateboarders. May steel knobs never stand in the way of you and your dreams.
this is by far the coolest series on youtube.
can't get enough!
The first video i've ever yelled "Fuck yeah!!" at the screen, when he made it. That was one of the gnarliest things i've ever seen on a skateboard. Kudos, man.
I cheer for these dudes all the time. Kinda how football fans yell at the tv, I understand.
Gabriel Summers is the definition of hard work paying off over natural talent. The man fought for his. Respects ✊
That boardslide.. definitely best 1 everrrrrrrrrrr. I've watched this 4 times. I watch it again bout a month. Gratsi""" Gabe 💯💯💯💪💪💪💪👍👍💰💰💰🔨🔨🔨⚒️⚒️⚒️🚬
So inspiring. This is what skateboarding is all about!
Someone on the internet said that skateboarders are one of the most mentally resilient people, and I definitely agree with that.
The best MyWar Ever!! Dude Sacrificed his hair & then his collarbone for this!!! Also people probably died when that structure collapsed without that pillar!!
Thrasher is killing it with this my war vibe videos. We all wanna know the struggle and much respect for all these skaters.
That flip in the beginning was gnarly 🤘🏼🤘🏼
The amount of speed getting built up by the end of the slide is just absurd... to keep balance through a mach 2 kink is insane 👏👏
the airtime while entering the last segment of rail while twisting his shoulders to hop out on the landing.. wow. such a subtle technicality you´d only get by practicing that totally mental scenario over and over. Sick!
We need more of these
My favorite one so far
Been waiting for a new my war for awhile now and gabbers doing another giant rail is the greatest gift imaginable
I love the "My War" edits. To see how much effort and selfhate goes into one trick shows so much more than a whole video part.
Both this dude's my wars are gnarly and shows how damn stubborn as persistent he is. He's that blue collar skater.
This is probably the craziest “my war” vid
Is nobody gonna talk about how he broke his collarbone and came back 6 weeks later??? Respect.
These My War videos are so inspiring bc the pure determination to succeed is always there. Also the level of joy that everyone feels once the trick is accomplished is just so awesome to see. This has to be my favorite playlist on the thrasher yt channel.
Can’t help but to root for dudes like this that understand their talent level and are accepting of it. Amazing My War.!
Love it when dude says: "these kids dont give a f-.. care about that" when he was talking about the kids trying to take the trick from Gabriel. It's true, like nothing is sacred nowadays and people will snake each other out of everything. Its crazy.
"take the trick from Gabriel" ... it's not "your trick" until you land it
I love this. I know the feeling he’s talking about. I only had it once, in one day I jumped down the macba 3 over a hundred times trying to bs360 it. And when I landed it, it was the pinnacle of “utopia”. And that was already 5 years ago
Im from here sadly there breaking down the whole place down glad they got this 🤙
Yes gabeee! One of my favorites since a long time
That euphoric smile at the end is crazy dope !
Best episode. True warrior.
I love this series
So good to see gabbers getting the recognition he deserves, I remember him crushing crazy rails in slam magazine many years ago
This is why i love skateboarding
That comment about the final make. “not getting into a good slide and feeling it, but kept sliding sounds awesome”. Maybe not getting a comfortable slide was helpful on top of the motivation 💯🙌🏽
The attempt when he made it looks the most effortless. He didn't give a shit anymore and just did it.
He's got the Porker throwie on a melb train model in the bg of his interview, IYKYK, that's mad cool
Love watching my war please keep making them
Damn..that first slam
This is just insane and absolutely awesome. Not just an insane trick but a very very interesting story of triumph. I absolutely love this. When he said, "these kids, they don't care", I felt that heat and I understand, it was WAR and VICTORY!
The slams hurt me. What a soldier!
Ayyy sick edit thanks for using our music! 🚀
This is the essence of being human. I love skateboarding!
Best episode so far so much MOTIVATION
One of the sickest My Wars yet!!
First the war to make me tear up. I love skateboarding
Haven't clicked a thrasher video this fast in a while
I don't even skate but what a beautiful sport/artform it is
That train in the back is sick AF 🔥🔥🔥 IYKYK 💯💯💯
Skate teaches perseverance for life. Gabriel, you are a beast!
And that's why these people are special
Simply awesome
Amazing boardslide! Thanks for the video
This is 100% the best series on thrasher
I don't miss falling after watching this
best one so far!
Rolled so clean too.
An awesome tale of a worthy war
Gabbers is a straight up legend! Commitment personified
Awesome episode. The commitment to be able to keep throwing himself into it after taking so many slams is admirable
Gabriel is a legend.
