As someone who lives in Newcastle Australia, these spots are completely unskateable to the average skater. Almost everything in this part is close to impossible! Absolutely epic part
Yep as a fellow Novocastrian I wouldn't even consider most of the spots skateable at all. Rowan's ability to see things other skaters can't is one of his many strengths. And the footage doesn't really give credit to how gnarly and impossible these spots are. My mind is constantly blown by this young legend.
Man I had to rewind 0:35 about ten times! So insane! A little bummed on the filming of the ender though. Only because you can't see how insane it really is.
It’s amazing to see the progression over the last 10-15 years, everyone is just so talented and technical. The speed, size and trick variety has been so elevated it’s amazing.
You really can’t appreciate how gnarly most these spots are until you go to Newcastle...cracked and bumpy ground and ledges and rails well over a hundred years old. So good to see this!
Well done on going pro! I remember around 6-7 years ago seeing a young Rowan skate a little skatepark at Toukley on the Central Coast. He was ripping so good.
Rad trick selection. Unfortunately most of the filming made it difficult to get much of a feel for his style/spots he was skating. Girl use to be the gold standard for video production. This looked like some Strobec bullshit
It's crazy to me how Strobeck ever got popular. A lot of the guy's filming sucks for skating. I also get a creep vibe from him because he's always recording teen boys shirtless.
@@DFunct905 yknow most of old habitat and kalis/stevie footage is filmed by fat bill? People forget Strobeck has a strong resume starting from early 00s. I guess you can consider him "popular" since he switched to supreme but the lad can do anything behind a camera but choses to push the boundary with a new style. As much as I personally don't like his new filming style as much, its still way more enjoyable than fken skate vids with 8mm b roll lol. As an artist I can appreciate his artistry even though its not my cuppa tea
The part at 5:21 is in cessnock. It's massive, honestly shocked that he done it aye. Would never even cross my mind as a spot and yet this dude grinds up the bridge handrail and bombs into the spillway 🤯
Im gna start a new filming trend, "The Reverse Stroebeck"! You start off filming thier feet, soon as they go to pop u quickly pan to thier face, hold that til after they land an roll away about 5-6 feet and pan back down to the feet! Comin in hot for 2038!
Love to see that old Omar Salazar spot!!! Is that in Australia!?! I didn't find the filming to overall be bad, but there were some notably bad clips for sure. Great steez for Rowan though, super good balancing of tech and gnar!
God damn Rowan fuckin’ rips… I had to rewind almost every trick he landed cause they were all so dope! The dudes got mad talent and a very bright future in skateboarding… Congrats on turning pro too! Well deserved g 🙏🛹

Love to hear it, visited in 06 ! Newcastle
Rules
literally was thinking the same thing. Aussie street spots are usually sketchy at best and these are on another level
Yeah 100‰ the terrain is fucked up newcastle ways. Hats off to rowan and congrats
@@rawbiscuits101 Newy has the crunchiest of concrete and asphalt

Really cool to see a guy from my own city make it and represent for the world
I was just thinking the same thing.
Where's that
@@toneohm Newcastle, nsw.
The definition of earning a pro spot, the dude kills it 🔥
In todays world gotta hand it to Crail Tap for keeping it real for sure
Beet rice earned her pro spot to
well deserved! he's been my favorite for a long time.
I drove past while he was still attempting the spot at 5:20. Super happy for the guy. Newy skaters are on the up.
I was trying to figure it out. Is that spot somewhere near Tighes Hill Tafe?
@@RandyTwang Nah its in Cessnock next to the McDonald’s.
@jimartymcfly5061 damn, I was way off, haha.
I know that spot you're talking about now, though.
Man I had to rewind 0:35 about ten times! So insane! A little bummed on the filming of the ender though. Only because you can't see how insane it really is.
yeah there was a handful of questionable stuff with respect to filming / editing on this, sick part nonetheless
@@totaled_camry Yup, a lot of the filming in this was pretty bad.
Agreed, really great skating let down by below average filming. Still a fan tho.
i think the filming suited the style of video though. i agree the ender needed a second angle or something but the vibe of the whole vid is so sick
@@teriyakov Same here - Rowan's sick! Just wanted a couple more angles!
It’s amazing to see the progression over the last 10-15 years, everyone is just so talented and technical. The speed, size and trick variety has been so elevated it’s amazing.
He's one of my new favs coming up, should be a good decade for him and fun for me to watch.
definitely one of or if not the only good part ive seen in almost a year. amazing!
All these new parts been good asf lately
What's this song??
Tre flip in the air maxes was one of the sickest clips I’ve ever seen man god damn
You really can’t appreciate how gnarly most these spots are until you go to Newcastle...cracked and bumpy ground and ledges and rails well over a hundred years old. So good to see this!
Yea Row! 💚
I’m so happy than Rowan turned pro,he deserves it
Great soundtrack and awesome skating
Congrats, what a Aussie ripper well deserved mate 👊
😮😮 the switch front nose 270 fakie flip out…..what the!! 🔥🔥🙌🏽🙌🏽
I had to replay it as soon as I saw it , this was insane!
0:35 still blows my mind everytime i watch it
Well done on going pro! I remember around 6-7 years ago seeing a young Rowan skate a little skatepark at Toukley on the Central Coast. He was ripping so good.
Additional filming by Shake McJitters
I stopped watching after a minute and a half, because the filming was so bad.
Y’all are trippin the filming was fine
That's what I'm saying, the filming seems fine.
Talvez una toma abierta hubiera ayudado
Additional comments from cool guy mcawesome
did his mom film the long lens clips?
my favorite vid so far from this year! amazing skating and spot selection
Well deserved. He’s too damn good. And a good addition. Love girl and Chocolate both teams stacked heavy
Love him a true blue ripper but Girl/Chocolate? yea nah it don’t suit
@@alexnico3028 whose he suit then ? Real ?
Real Baker but April with Shane would’ve made my day
@@alexnico3028 he said he’s wanted to ride for girl since he was young so he’s dream come true he just took street to the next level
@@alexnico3028 he wud fit baker for sure
One of the gnarliest dudes from down under, congrats man

Couldn’t agree more with op comment. But I think it’s some of rowans homies too filming this stuff which is cool as fuck

Sorry they didn’t get Spike Jonze to film his part for you
Meza not filming maaaaan
360 flip down the stairs with a tight gap…. in air max 95’s 😵 may be the gnarliest thing in this video
in the 95s that s crazy lmaoo
Most nonchalant reaction to one if the gnarliest enders ive ever seen
The part at 5:21 is in cessnock. It's massive, honestly shocked that he done it aye. Would never even cross my mind as a spot and yet this dude grinds up the bridge handrail and bombs into the spillway 🤯
Video doesn't do it justice just how steep and deep it is.
12 feet 60+*
It's great watching the new talent rise. 🤘
style and trick selection on point
No lo puedo creer que ya es pro, que felicidad saber eso que siempre siga patinando así, gran forma de patinar ....
Mate you fuckin shred but please don’t kick my bin over again. It was recycling day 😂🤣👍👍
Best part I’ve seen this year and best spots. Looks like he traveled many a mile for that footage
99% of the spots in this were from Newcastle, all within walking distance of each other.
Can second that 😂 I live on hunter and see the dude almost daily out skating
Long overdue, Rowan BEEN killing it. Love seeing all the local spots too 👌
This was absolutely incredible
NO WAY THEY JUST USED GUITAR FIGHT FROM FOOLY COOLY YOOOOO THATS SICK! Most underrated emo band ever!!
Damn two good girl parts in two weeks 😍
Has that too comfortable stee. And tre flips are fresh. Congratulations.
Was just at the same park with him! (Croudace bay), its so cool to see a newy skater in thrasher mag
I knew he would be made pro soon, been tearing it up for a couple of years now!🎉🤙🏾🤙🏾👀🤘
One of the best parts I’ll never watch again
yessirski
As he should! Rmb watching and old old Nike SB part of his years ago. Always knew he'd be good.
I love when people master the basics.
Love seeing so many newy spots! That Jaycar spot on the coast though I've always thought that would be a dope spot. Glad someone did it justice!
crazy switch pops 😵😵😵
Im gna start a new filming trend, "The Reverse Stroebeck"! You start off filming thier feet, soon as they go to pop u quickly pan to thier face, hold that til after they land an roll away about 5-6 feet and pan back down to the feet! Comin in hot for 2038!
Aussies doin it big. Glad these guys are getting the respect they deserve
Songs are beyond sick and perfect
I like how he does his 360 flips without that ugly, goofy, dangling back leg
Dude's an actual spiderman, Girl better pay him accordingly!
Lowkey my favorite part of the year
So eye pleasing! Love that part!
1:58 I stacked my bike at this spot riding to school when I was 14 crazy to see places like this being skated
Wallride over that rail one of the best I’ve seen on video.
Great skating! These long lens filmers must be SO proud of themselves
No way they used Strictly Ballroom. So underrated
IT'S THE MOTHER FUCKING GUITAR FIGHT FROM FOOLY COOLY
So good! Good part, Good style, Good music, greetings from Venezuela. 🔥🔥
Love to see that old Omar Salazar spot!!! Is that in Australia!?! I didn't find the filming to overall be bad, but there were some notably bad clips for sure. Great steez for Rowan though, super good balancing of tech and gnar!
Such a good skater, but the constant zoom-in zoom-out does a disservice to him and the spots.
Homie said fuck them trash bins 😂
5:15 airmax 95s?!?
3:03 Those trash cans must have been talking mad shit...
Yeeeeeeesss! Will definetely get a board!❤
music was so good i was bout to be so bummed til 1:04 like YEEEAESSSSSSS
That wall ride over the double set was crazy
Man skated the Newcastle uni business and law campus now that has my ultimate respect
The core/tech/gnar got me quakin my boots n playin flutes foreal
I never would have considered that fort scratchley spot at 4.04
Dude kicked over recycling bins!!! Cancel him immediately 😆
This is gonna make waves.
Brutal music, even for crail
Damn those spots. He definitely nailed it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is rough and tumble. Raw great skating
he dropped a part like 2 weeks ago as well
Damn been waiting since his spitfire part it’s about damm time right on Rowan !
filmer went crazy with the zoom in zoom out shit....
Dope ass spots and insane tech steezy sends
Sick clip, wicked tunes, aus skater 👌🏻👌🏻
Cant imagine how hard that last trick is
The bails gotta be wild
We need the rough cut for this
I love this bro
It really is a trip when you recognise 99% of the spots in a thrasher video
Never seen an ender like that. That was crazy. It didn’t even register with me at first watch.
What about that sw varial heel
3:06 why ? haha
instant dis like .
It's about time.
No way.He got his 2nd last trick the bridge to drain in our shitty town...Cheers for the email bro.
