Watching that Bridge scene was something else.. The simple fact he survived is another matter!!! But to recover strong enough (along with everything else) to end up smashing a Switch Hardflip down Wallenberg is pure love for the craft!! Legend.
I fell almost 40 ft at work last year and shattered my knee, I was starting to think I'd not be able to skate again, but i decided to hop on my board yesterday and cruised around, then I see this dude broke both legs and he's out here shredding like that. Super inspirational.
The fact that there is a specific spot built ramp/roll-in for a spot that’s not really the most accessible ready to be constructed for people willing to throw down blows my mind. Brandon, welcome back. Not that you were ever gone
IKR YOU CAN HEAR HIS WHEEL HIT A PEBBLE OR SOME SHIT ON THE ROLL UP AND HE’S LIKE “OH SHIT” BUT HE JUST KEEPS GOING AND BUSTS OUT THE FAT SWITCH HARD DOWN CARLSBAD. I NEVER GET OVER HOW HE KEEPS GOING AND THEN LANDS THE TRICK, SHITS AMAZING FOR SURE..
I am 36 and grew up skating in 1995. In 98' he blew my mind, that whole video did with Fulfill the Dream. Switch hard flipping Carlsbad was just insane and legendary. He can do a switch hardflip in his sleep. A legend. Brandon is tough physically and mentally.
Just made a 38 year old man happy and inspired. Looked up to Brandon and the shortys team so much in my teens. This made me wanna get into better shape and skate to my best abilities.
35 here. I love seeing one of my all time favorite skaters getting healthy and straight up KILLING it again. It's so inspirational. I started getting healthy and skating again back in April. So far I've dropped 70 lbs and feel so much better mentally and physically. I skate better now in my mid 30's than I did 20 years ago because I'm passionate about my growth instead of getting faded and barely skating.
38 here. Me to man. Me to. Shortys and brandon specifically was the man. When i was a kid amd coos came and tried to ask my name i always said brandon turner. Lmao.
@@topxsoul I like the switch hard better personally. That back 3 off the car wash into the bank was absolutely buck and insane but Midler is a young guy that can afford to take heavy slams. Brandon is fucking 38 throwing himself down that mountain I respect the fuck out of that. Just seems like more on the line for Brandon. His legacy was almost already set, he didn’t have anything to prove by doing that. Midler on the other hand is young and hungry so I expect that kinda commitment.
@@topxsoul The 360/270 was amazing. Incredibly gnarly. Insane. But a legit switch hardflip at the 'berg? I don't care if you're 38 or 18, that is nuts. TOTY for sure.
I shed a legitimate tear at the Wallenberg switch hardflip. Fulfill the Dream was my first video, and to see him still doing this at the highest level is wonderful. Congrats Brandon! You deserve it!
I am 6 years sober and just started skating again after 10 years off the board. I'm 29 and a little overweight, but I'm having so much fun. This guy is absolutely an inspiration man. Kickflips were hard for me to get back, but I practice everyday. Thanks for posting this video.
Thanks jenkem. Great to see Brandon doing so well. Those new clips are insane! Switch hardflip was hard AF. This is the best skateboarding channel on UA-cam. Its not even close.
Switch god for sure. So stoked he's re-emerging. Saying that as an old that's burnt out on today's skate scene. The skating itself is mind blowing but the "scene"...nahh
Geezzz those sw hard attempts at wallenberg were already so close from the jump! He’s on point! This was a great piece, thanks! Brought me back seeing his old Shorty’s photos and footage!
WHO KEEPS A 5TH OF HENNESSY AND A CARGO POCKET FILLED WITH WEED?! His Guilty part was insane..dude is a true legend and to come back from addiction like he did and be relevant at 39 years old winning the SLS trick title is mind blowing. A true inspiration
Love to see it! This makes me want to see more of Brandon Turner! A vlog series at least........I recently got sober just before i had my son. Now i'm ready to pick up my board again this year after 5 years hiatus! This came out at a good time to inspire me this year! Lets go!
Awesome interview, bridge story is unbelievable, can’t believe he not only got back to skating but is throwing mega bangers... makes this dude that much gnarlier
O.B.S. OL BOY SKATING GLAD to see the older gen still killin it, i just got back into skating. Thanks to youtube, never stopped watching skate videos, ive actually watched more skate video since i quit than when i was skating. All because of youtube. Also, thanks to the 9 club n my 4 n half yr old son. I want to be able to do some sht when he gets a bit older n i think it would be awesome for me to share skating with him. He already likes it, so IM FULLY IN, middle of building a skate box now ( had to stop because of the east coast weather) Got enough wood to build 2 boxes, a bench ( going to put granite top on it, buttery ledge basically) N building a rail also, n of couse everything im building will be adjustable height. Skating never leaves you
hey man honestly this was so inspiring I'm 23 and I've been skating since i was 10 and i got sober like 4 years ago and got back into skating while living in chicago but honestly i havent skated in a year and watching this made me get inspired to loosen my muscles and get back on the board man my whole body doesnt feel good anymore
Fuck yeah Brandon! So glad to see you healthy and better than ever. 2 broken legs can’t even stop you. That switch hardflip brought tears to my eyes because the journey behind it.
His switch skills blew me away when I was a kid. Really nice to see how he tuned his life around. Makes me wonder how far he would have taken his talent if he had stayed on the straight and narrow.
Man I wish I could like this 1,000 times. Just turned 40, so I grew up with the Shorty’s videos. He looks so good! Congrats, Brandon! Win SOTY for all us old guys !
Fulfill The Dream was my first skate video in 1998, Brandon's part was mind blowing. That whole video, plus the 411 Europe 1998 contest video is what got me into skateboarding. Great memories.
Skate culture is kinda schizophrenic- guys who "get sober" like Brandon, Greco, Reynolds, etc. are celebrated, while there's still a lot of emphasis on partying, and weed is ubiquitous. Before anyone says "but weed is different", ask Brandon if it was a gateway thing for him, and ask him why he doesn't do it now if it's so positive.
@@MyBodyWash True- it varies by person, but there is plenty of evidence that THC has a detrimental effect. Mariano, Paolo Diaz, & too many to name know this first hand. Wes Kremer will look beat in a few years, & Evan Smith already does.
I shouted, "yooo" when I saw that treflip roast beef. I shouted, "YOOOOOOOOO" when I saw the next trick. This is the raddest thing I've seen, hell yeah Brandon!!!! This video is also a huge inspiration to push my limits on the health side of skateboarding too. This sport is so young and we're all still figuring it out, but I think Brandon and other health conscious skateboarders like him are paving the way for future skaters to pay attention to their bodies and treat them right because when they're older, they're going to need to skate, and in order to skate, you need to get your body right!!! HELL YEAH!
Brandon seems so humble and down to earth. Life changes people. Some for the good? Some for the Bad. I feel for Brandon? He is so positive now and helping others cope with the realities of life. Keep up the good work 👍🙏😎
I knew nothing about him besides him appearing in Wes's Gram if I'm correct, great respect to this guy. He's a great inspiration. Great job on the presentation too Jenkem. 👍
That is interesting when he speaks about 4 years of staying sober you can see in the background two signs in opposite directions „beer” and „beach” and he drives in beach direction.
The fact he switch hard flipped Wallenberg this late in his career is inspiring.

My heart was pounding the entire time while I watched that segment. I had no idea that that had happened to Brandon.
Love ur vids
Absolutely nuts.
Bro that bridge is high as hell! I had no idea he had metal in his legs. Wow
This is true legendary status. Brandon Turner has overcome all obstacles with a smile on his face. We need to make a movie about him.
Love these short docs. Brandon's a legend.

Inspirational. No mainstream athlete would perform at this level after something like the bridge. Shows how much of a prodigy he was / is.
I couldn't agree more
Why did he jump
@@rogerr6322 he didn’t mean to. He thought there was no gap between the bridges.
@@MrEL91N can you imagine the feeling ! Realizing you fucked up and jumped off a 60ft bridge ? Man is a legend
Just saw him yesterday at city heights park. With his group, he was so chill with them. Pushing them, teaching them. Such a legend

the juxtaposition of the wild push up and the instant control of the flip
That thing is amazing, wobbles around and then a perfect switch hard. The reason i learned too do them
That switch hard was legendary
Hate to say that he is underrated. Deserves more credit for sure
Skateboard industry is like the entertainment industry in the say it's so closed n has a few ppl who decide who gets on
I like the way he laughs after landing the tricks
Hey dude what's up I just subbed your channel a couple weeks ago, I didn't expect to see you here lol
How many dudes near 40 are geeking out right now here? *Raises hand.
