Geoff Rowley did that in 2002. He was incredibly ahead of his time. If you watch that part, it still holds up today.
Geoff is legend!
That Clive Dixon noseblunt is one of the gnarliest tricks to ever go down on a skateboard imo
Fully agree. Can’t understand how it wasn’t TOTY
@robertojacobfleck what was the trick of the year when clive did it?
@@bobkilla430Brandon Turner's switch hardflip down wallenberg
@anguscooney8182 both are damn impressive
@@anguscooney8182 damn. okay, maaaybe that was correct call. Super close tho
Hard to emphasize how shocking Geoff Rowley's skating was when this first came out. He's a legend for good reason.
He was 100% my guy in the late 90s/early 00s, even though my skating was so totally opposite (small and techy/park transition vs Geoff's huge fast and gnarly).
@@Hardcastle83 my 4
You gotta respect any skater who gets a trick on this thing… I pulled up 2 it One day on a bday trip just to check it out & that mf is HUGEEE
100%. It looks big in videos but looks impossible in person. 🤯
Wooow
yeah its def one of those spots where the camera actually makes it look smaller than in person.
I don't respect a buttslide 😂
I eyed this in person.. it eyed me back. I kept walking .
3:48 Oh man is that 360 Flip a thing of beauty. Geoff is an all time favorite and one of the best styles ever! Sorry era Flip team was insane!
Geoff always had a different mentality than every other skateboarder.
This man was on a mission to push limits
And boy, did he push them! Such a raw, yet smooth style too. He's one of the favourites from those golden years as a teenager-to-adult!
Ted Nugent for President
Geoff was always one of my all time favourites, also as a Brit, it’s funny coming back to his videos every few years and the accent evolves more and more American every time haha
Wow I hadn't seen Chad Fernandez in a long long time... Underrated skater imo
Same here. Always liked him. Watched 'The Storm' a thousand times as a kid 🛹🔥🤙
Same same, I said aloud "Damn this guy existed too! Didn't even remember and he was so good"
To this day I'll still sometimes say "Just give me a Chad FUR-nan-DEZ!" from his old ACME video.
Chad Fernandez was always ahead of his time, always hit the biggest spots, didn’t get the love he should have
Just rewatched 'Grind' the other night, he's great in that lol
Geoff is an absolute animal.
I got flip sorry free with a sidewalk skate mag subscription when I first started and will remember that vid forever.
Legend.
Geoff has always been oozing with passion
I think that 360 flip should’ve been talked about more. That was insane
Replayed it about 15 times, incredibly effortless yet perfect
I was looking for this comment. Totally agree: unreal.
yeah I tripped on that. So much control
Geoff isn't talked about enough when it comes to good 360 flips, he always had one of the best ones in my opinion. The one he does down that set of stairs in some old 411vm pro files is so good
the fact he did that so perfect right after... I've seen that clip so much and didn't realize he did that
That tre flip says everything.
The best Street skateboarding commentator on the planet #GeoffRowley
He’s the best to ever do it
He certainly is, but damn that noseslide heelflip out looked sick as hell. Hats off to you man, keep pushing it!
Much respect, Geoff. One of the greatest skateboarders ever.
Still knarly to this day much respect 💯💪
Sebo's nollie flip manual my personal favorite trick to go down. What a unique way to interpret the spot
I love skateboarding, so much. Its still makes me feel, which is rare now a days.
Beautiful explanation of what it feels like to be in love with skateboarding.
Geoff was always my favorite he pushed limits
This guy was always a maniac getting busted open and bloody and was like let's keep going till i get the trick down once he got it he was like "alright let's go to the hospital" 😂❤
Rowley is so underrated in the world of skateboarding for me he is in the same level as Reynolds or Deawon and yet he still haven't had the status of those two have. Rowley open many ways of skateboarding in his career.
@dennybeck666 for the late 90's and early 2000's skater he still one of the best but the 2010 era doesn't recognize him a much as Reynolds or Koston.
One of my favorites of all time
Geoff is such an inspiration ❤️🔥
"Find it, skate it and move on".... Awesome words.
“I ain’t TRYING sh*t! I *AM* Nose Blunting this!!” 😂😂😂😂 love Clive
Mad respect for anyone doing tricks on that massive beast.
Erik Penton , from WINNIPEG Manitoba, Canada... kickflipped front 50-50 staples. Photo is in thrasher
Geoff Rowley is a warrior and gentleman👏😎👏
the 360 flip afterward will always be my favorite one ever done. so effortless and good
Hell yeah. Geoff is a real pioneer
Nice to see that Geoff is still doing his thing!
Still can’t believe Dollin almost kickflip bs boardslid it at nite time with no camera he said and that was the closest he got from all the other attempts afterwards! Any trick down this is legendary.. 🍻
One of my idols growing up , still look you to you bro!
UTTER GREATNESS 🔥🔥
Great piece, Geoff is an excellent presenter! Need more Geoff!
The best friend i ever had idolized Geoff Rowley when we grew up skating. This was 100% nostalgia. R.I.P. Michael Chernikoff
Geoff pushed the boundaries of skateboarding. Legend!
I really wish that 3 flip after the 50 would have been part of the official video part that was sick
Still wants to skate it. What a beast. Eric's kickflip 50-50 was real nutty.
What a beautiful piece this was. I love skateboarding.
This spot is huge. Iconic for skateboarding. She’s beautiful
We found this shortly after Geoff's ad came out. Completely blown away!
Respect🤘🤘 he's still one of my favorites
Inspiring words from a true legend!
Geoff’s a legend. And the berrics is like that one friend who has the mini ramp that you just put up with so you can go skate it.
I remember having the Vans ad on my wall when I was 14. I'm 37 now and I still remember seeing it and being so blown away by that photo.
Cool series, and Geoff is a beast
Rowley is Class
Im old cuz I remember this moment crystal clear. What a legendary spot and moment in skateboarding history. Salute Geoff🫡
Chad looking like Bam Margera. Dern Bros out here predicting the berric's next vids. I was just watching theirs on this spot. Insane spot, thats for sure!
Best series ❤❤
Rode the Shams and the XLTs for sooo long. Geoff was my idol
I freaking love Geoff what a legend!
that flip time from this era set the bar so high in the early 2000s. Kids are just barely getting there at this point and it's crazy lol
Geoff embodies skateboarding!
When I visited LA in 2016, I went there just to see it for myself, and it's soooo high. Unbelievable. I got sweaty hands just watching this video :D
That thing is massive
Crazy. Got to see the fountain at love park when I was a kid, was in Philly and just had to see it. Crazy
Fark yeah Geoff yah bloody legend..............
This is great! Rowley has always been an inspiration from when I was first skating. Very psyched to see this now
legend.. much love.. :)
Dern bros here first
So sick! This Skate Register series is awesome.
Geoff is my all time favorite skater. Thats it
Mamba Mentality, really one of the early street skaters to have it.
"It's just another skatespot to me" Geoff Rowley is one of the only people on earth that will look at that spot and say that.
I love Geoff's perspective on this. Totally agree with him.
that 3 flip after the grind was so effortless
Bloody Love Geoff Rowley!
"Sorry" and "Really Sorry" will always be my favorite skate video's (and Baker 3) lol
Man i knew this hubba was big but not THAT big!! Shoulder high, thats insane!
The uproots and alienations that a local in LA can see.. They show us so much including the ever current obstacles and the ways around ‘em,through ‘em,over ‘em,whateva…. Destroy ‘em.
Feels like the Dern brothers video, except Geoff is in here.
Super well done project. Stoked for Geoff and all rippers.
Geoff is an OG skater. So dope and doing hige stuff way back in the day ❤
so sick
Awesome. Geoff rules.
Anyone else feel like Geoff was going to hit it again near the end of the video?
I love skateboarding man
Dane burmans 50 the rail then onto the hubba was insane to me, looked so scary!
hammers. Geoff done some things.
"Just another skate spot to me."
That's mental.
dern brothers been doing these type of videos
That 360 flip after was so effortless and steezy
Was my favorite skater growing up 🔥
Keep em coming, this one was great
Came to this spot one day and there was a dude trying a nollie back blunt. Gnarly stuff. Hope he got it.
Rowley is the real deal. Absolute legend.
Epic! Great Video!
this guy was my idol when I was a kid and this video was pure nostalgia! Bring him at the BOTB 😆
Legend
Real skateboard legend
Remember him as a kid skating the Law Courts in Town !!
That has got to be most effortless video game tre flip I’ve ever seen in my life lmao, even better then dixons
Rowley has been my favorite skaters since Tony Hawk's!
Amazing piece ❤🇿🇦🤘🏻🛹
Dam now thats passion ! That would be a great series of boards to put legend skate spots on the graphics. Emb, Pier 7 ect ect ...
Thank you!
