agreed. The gnar from the danger of having to go over that fence first and maybe clipping it and flipping heels over head...crazy to think about worst case scenario there. But still both are crazy kickflips.@@mrburns805
Sheckler’s kickflip is the most memorable for me. Hats off to Dave Bachinsky and especially Ryan Decenzo because those dudes still put it down like it’s nothing! Mad respect
Just found this UA-cam channel and this is exactly what I've been looking for, documentary style videos with skate legends giving eachother their flowers for crazy tricks. Keep doing this!
That little bit of conversation at the end between those two about getting older and using each other as motivation to still huck big stuff was super rad. They’re both still willing to go hard but they need some help. Most guys that get older don’t want that smoke, myself included. Concrete only gets harder the older you get.
Something about the speed of that el toro kickflip and the way he the overhead camera angle shows him catching the board makes the look of that kickflip unbeatable to me. but overall the Costco gap kickflip is insane if only for the fact that almost no one else has even gone back to fuck with it. also I love the way these guys talk to eachother. so much respect man. Sheckler's right the next greatest is coming down the line!
people dont want to skate a spot that is a glorified loading dock and big drop. just doesnt appeal to most people or look that great. bachinsky was going as fast as one can go on a skateboard to flip el toro, sheckler was just cruising at a medium speed because its only 5 feet to clear compared to el toros 20.
@@sharongreffin1715 that’s funny I feel exactly opposite, when I saw shecklers kick flip about 10 years ago and didn’t care about skating it was memorable, massive and gnarly going over a fence. It’s more unique than another set of ugly stairs being jumped down, stairs are everywhere, nothing interesting about that set. I may have seen bachinskis too but would’ve been forgettable. Ryan seriously pushed the limits of the size of drops doing that, as well his was way cleaner and 6 feet higher. Says a lot that sheckler himself nearly backside flipped el toro as to what is objectively more impressive.
yes he pushed the limits of drops aka loading docks and its not 6 feet higher. there is literally evidence right on video showing that: measuring at an angle, holding tape a foot above fence, and him adding a foot just for fun. also i wouldnt say he nearly bs flipped el toro as the closest attempt he had was him doing the splits. joslin almost tre flipped it thats fair to say, sheckler nope. maybe if el toro was a big drop with nothing to clear he would have landed it.@@saturnvi5421
As an official “old guy” who grew up in skateboarding, one of my favorite things of this current era is the renewed interest and respect for what came before. Same thing happened a little bit in the late 90’s early 00’s. Super cool to see younger dudes giving props to the eras they came up watching. Love and props all around.
Love these videos! Both kick flips are so gnarly! I love how at the end they talk about skating something big together; and Ryan's totally right that there's gonna be someone someday who takes it to the next level!
who ever owns this channel, your killing it! i’m 37 and remember all this stuff, to bring it more to light, is amazing. props to you guys and your whole team
Bachinsky definetly. I remember when we watched this, at like age 14 and it was so friggin hype. I was the one who always collected the Skatevideos and we all sat down & watched this 411 it before the session, without actually knowing of Bachinskys Kicklip. He did it so well too. We never heard of him in Europe before this. One of my friends (who struggled with Kickflips) actually learned how to Kickflip the same session and we all were so proud of him, and celebrated him like he was the one who Kickflipped El Toro. Good times😅
Man you find a way to sneak literally all of my favorite skaters from my greatest skate years in your videos. I love that shit. I can't believe we're getting old.
"someone somewhere is plotting the next kickflip to rule them all" this is gnarly to think about and i wonder who it is and when they're going to show up. looking forward to this.
I think it will take a downhill landing for anyone to do anything bigger than shecklers. It’s pushing the point of what’s gonna break a board and someone’s body
Mad thing is Bachinsky is known more for tech skating, crazy mini ramp flip in flip out combos etc but he also did one of the biggest kickflips of all time
I’ve always thought the same thing. His kickflip made him famous, so when I would search around for clips and stuff I was always surprised to see miniramp and flip in flip out stuff. Makes it even more impressive. Especially since it was on a 7.5 board. One of the most underrated for sure. Even after all the credit he gets for el toro.
the thing is that back then, he was the same kind of skater as Jaws was a bit later, believe it or not. He was doing basic tricks down the biggest drops anyone had skated at that moment.
Used to watch that Reynolds flip at the end of his part in Feedback 'till VHS stretched... Anyhooo.. Solid channel/ content and all that proverbial jazz. Word up from Cape Town, South Africa
never skated throughout my life but have always had an immense respect for the sport. the sheer determination it takes to take brutal falls and just get right back up to try again is absurd.
I think something that skating teaches you that kinda goes unspoken unless you are a skater, is humility. You humble yourself every time you try and fail a trick. Hundreds of times per trick potentially or more. And it teaches you that you have to work for it. And every skater understands this truth and it puts like a humility into anything you achieve or do. Its like yeah i did this but bro so did this guy with this trick or w.e it is. A real skater will always say but yeah this so and so or nah man you can do this. Its never just a fuck yes im the best. And as weve gotten older i think its translated well into other aspects and ironically creates a sense of respect that most people dont assume skaters have just cause we get kicked out of everywhere for just doing something. There are bad eggs but as you get older you realize nah man we just out here tryna do fun shit for fun.
This is a sick video. Was never that big into skateboarding but you showed the picture of scheckler and I instantly was like “yup seen that - very famous”
I was at my skating peak when the majority of these came out. Bachinsky’s el toro kickflip was the most ubiquitous and impactful by far. Literally everybody who was into skating brought it up when it happened. All the others were amazing, but it was only brought up in context of a part or when people were talking about the skater in general. Everyone was talking about the el toro kickflip after it happened.
Dave had more impact opening the gates of El Toro What I like about Ryan's is that because of the traffic for the run up, you have more pressure. My personal is Gonz with his mobbed kickflip
Man I love the way a big kickflip sounds when you slam it down right on the bolts. I wish my legs weren't made of metal now and I could still do ones taller than a curb.
stoked to see all the Reynolds call outs. Reynolds kickflipping grass gaps got me into skating. Shecklers costco gap is insane but it never inspired me, it looked like torture. Andrew always made big flips looks so stylish
No mention of Enzo Cautela's kickflip down that massive 20? You can see the footage in his KOTR intro. That's gotta be the most underrated. My favorite is Sheckler's Costco and Nuge's out to the street.
@storied_skateboarding so you're saying there's more?! I'd love an extended with all the other kickflips people bring up and any chance to chat at the people who hucked. This video got me so fucking stoked.
its not. he measured incorrectly at an angle, added a foot as you can see hes holding it a foot over the fence, and then on top of that added another foot for pop. dont know why he has to do things like that but then again he said he bs flipped el toro when he got murdered by el toro weird
@@sharongreffin1715 regardless it’s bigger than el toro lmao And he claimed it before even trying it because he was put on the spot and wanted to impress one of the greats in skateboarding. I don’t think he was wrong for having the confidence to claim that he did bs flip el toro considering he was at his peak and if anyone was going to bs flip el toro, everyone would’ve agreed that it would’ve been Sheckler. Unfortunately injuries are unavoidable, it’s skateboarding. I don’t know why you’re so salty about everything.
sheckler is the same guy who lied about bs flipping el toro. there is no reason but he did it. he got murdered by el toro trying to bs flip it. and you can see on video they arent measuring it right, you can see hes holding it a foot above the fence so its not accurate. maybe hes not lying but just really poor at measuring things? @@leastselfawarepotassium
skating hasnt stopped but these videos will bring that old typa skate vibe back an im excited for it, ive skated a few times but now im gonna set a new bored up an start seriously
So sick! Costco gap is nearly 15ft high after pop. Plus the death gap over the fence. Costco wins technically but should we compare? Both are all time gnarly💯🙏
This is so special ! Growing up Watching gladiators touch the untouchable, made skateboarding the secret society I wanted to be a part of ! Every broken bone and twisted ankle was a mark of honour
On paper it’s Ryan’s kick flip by a landslide. It’s bigger, it’s harder, and looks cooler. I know when I first saw it 10 years ago before I ever gave a shit about skating I never forgot it whereas I think i would have forgotten el Toro cause it’s just another set of stairs at the end of the day. Adding on we all know with how close Ryan came to backside flipping el Toro he probably wouldn’t have struggled to much with a straight kick flip on it. I kind of find it amusing the mental gymnastics these athletes are pulling to make it sound like their comparable when one is 9 feet and the other is 15 with a fence to clear on a spot nobody else has skated.
0:58 thank god it’s in here 🤣 it’s the most famous kickflip in my mind. It’s the most textbook kickflip. Absolute perfection. Billy Marks Ride the Sky 🙌
Ps - cant believe its been 20 YEARS since I saw Billy Marks and Chris Cole neck and neck at Tampa Pro 2004 best trick on the rail. Fun unrelated story - I won the moat race that year, made friends with Kareem Campbell and he gave me a wristband to hang on the ramps. Marks did tre-flip lipslide i wanna say, Cole did kickflip front noseblunt. Shit was gnarlyyyy
One of the greatest parts of these videos is how much extra content put into them. Definitely agree that Milton’s was gnarly, but not the most famous. I know non-skaters who’ve talked to me about Dave’s kickflip down El Toro. There are also some vert kickflips that I would classify as gnarly, but not necessarily famous.
thank you tim oconnor for mentioning garcias kickflip, i remember watching mosaic when it came out and i always thought it looked like he had magnets on his feet
Man. All the kickflips mentioned are epic but Enzos kickflip down that gigantic block is so under-rated. Doesn't help that it looks like it was filmed on an iPhone and there was no photo or hype built around it at LEAST deserves an honourable mention
Many of these dudes say such stupid answers to "the most famous kickflip" due to bias. obviously its not one of those old clips. has to be shecklers since hes had most fans of the bunch outside hardcore skaters
“Obviously it’s not one of those old clips”? Those were all big deals. And Franks down Wallenberg wasn’t that long before Bachinskys, which itself is almost 20 years ago. Your comment only makes sense if you heard of non of the older kickflips. I started skating in 2002 and Gonzs Mobflip and Marchovics down Carlsbad Gap were legendary. It seems to me that newer skaters just don’t care enough about skateboarding history.
Sheckler's kickflip over that fence drop is bad ass, and Decenzo's double set was insane, bit the most famous kickflip was Mark Gonzales doing that gap in SF in the late 1980s.
I wasn’t a huge fan of skate parts but i’d seen Shecklers kickflip at costco so many times. So i think thats the most famous worldwide. People will have seen that dont care about skating but with Shecklers fame at times i think it went around more
The fact that nobody has been back to the “Costco gap” since Ryan Sheckler did it shows, that gap was the hardest nobody is willing to give it another try lol
3:53 as soon as shackles sat down with Bachinsky & said “El Toro is no joke” it immediately dawned on me that they’re probably gonna bring up Sheckler lying to Phelps about backside flipping El Toro. Personally I don’t hold it against him. Every single one of us has screwed up and lied or exaggerated something & then immediately regretted it wishing we could take the words back
I gotta say My FAVORITE kickflip is Mark Appleyard's kickflip over the handrail in Really Sorry. It's literally perfect. The way he pops it, catches it at the peak of his jump. It's unreal
That Decenzo double set kickflip is ridiculously underrated
It’s nuts
If they did top three kickflips that would be number three.
On new years eve no less.. Decenzo hucks
Agreed!!!!
It totally is but el toro seems bigger. I’ve been to both. I can’t confirm which is bigger but el Toro seems impossible to do anything but Ollie
I love the humility and mutual respect shown here.
🙏🙏🙏
That's what makes this series so awesome.
The nostalgia hit of these are so nice. RIP all the old skating homies that didn't make it. We remember you.

The videographer, Ricki Bedenbaugh, was at both and he's giving it to Sheckler... I gotta agree with that!

Nah… El Toro is the spot that everyone knows.
@@RiverGambler it is gnarlier, 6 feet higher and over a fence.

And no one ever tried to skate Costco again 💀

That line was too good.
Sheckler at the Costco. Still one of the sickest tricks to this day.

Shecks caught it tweaked too. It had style for such a big drop.

Bachinsky rode from nowhere into the history books in a day. What a badass story. For that reason I give it to him.
Yup!
I love this series so much! And let’s give a shout out to Milton’s car wash kickflip!
We can’t believe nobody called that one out!
maybe its too recent and this generation just takes it in for a minute and on to the next. Kinda ruining longevity@@storied_skateboarding
It's fucking buck but I don't think people really see it as gnarly (even though it is) because it's not visually as massive.
That car wash kickflip has to be the scariest of all time.
@@wiggztvit look massive

These are the best videos ever. Keep em coming
Thank you!
What are your thoughts? Who do YOU think as the most famous kickflip ever?!
Man. All the kickflips mentioned are epic but Enzos kickflip down that gigantic block is so under-rated. Doesn't help that it looks like it was filmed on an iPhone and there was no photo or hype built around it at LEAST deserves an honourable mention
Absolute monsters. MAD respect. The level of potential injury of these two gaps is huge
💪🙌🤝
Many of these dudes say such stupid answers to "the most famous kickflip" due to bias. obviously its not one of those old clips. has to be shecklers since hes had most fans of the bunch outside hardcore skaters
but yes I get it, they want to include more names in the video
It is all very relative to the eras they grew up skating in
yes thats true, but i meant if we are speaking of the all time most famous@@storied_skateboarding
“Obviously it’s not one of those old clips”? Those were all big deals. And Franks down Wallenberg wasn’t that long before Bachinskys, which itself is almost 20 years ago. Your comment only makes sense if you heard of non of the older kickflips. I started skating in 2002 and Gonzs Mobflip and Marchovics down Carlsbad Gap were legendary. It seems to me that newer skaters just don’t care enough about skateboarding history.
kuulppa poju lue tän videon titteli eka ja lue mitä määkirjotin udestaan@@nikokaapa
Both gnarly but i got to go with Costco gap.. nobody is stepping to that gap to do anything else.. killer video tho
Thanks!
Sheckler's kickflip over that fence drop is bad ass, and Decenzo's double set was insane, bit the most famous kickflip was Mark Gonzales doing that gap in SF in the late 1980s.
💪💪💪
You got to give it to shecks. Not a single soul has touched the Costco Gap since. There's a reason for that.
🙏🙏🙏
I wasn’t a huge fan of skate parts but i’d seen Shecklers kickflip at costco so many times. So i think thats the most famous worldwide. People will have seen that dont care about skating but with Shecklers fame at times i think it went around more

Without Rodney Mullen, none of us would be watching this video
💯
Someone woulda figured it out
@@gabedepina9331but then we’d be watching a different video.
The fact that nobody has been back to the “Costco gap” since Ryan Sheckler did it shows, that gap was the hardest nobody is willing to give it another try lol
💪💪💪
Just two absolute titans, good shit.
💪💪💪
sheckler or dave- not even a contest on this
!!!
3:53 as soon as shackles sat down with Bachinsky & said “El Toro is no joke” it immediately dawned on me that they’re probably gonna bring up Sheckler lying to Phelps about backside flipping El Toro. Personally I don’t hold it against him. Every single one of us has screwed up and lied or exaggerated something & then immediately regretted it wishing we could take the words back
most tricks.....
rodney mullen in a florida garage: hello old friend.
Haha
Man i love this type of skate content. thank you dudes
@@Jdkieddj thank you!
I know this isnt in the same category but Keenan Milton's switch flip over the picnic table was a work of art. RIP.
Truth
I gotta say My FAVORITE kickflip is Mark Appleyard's kickflip over the handrail in Really Sorry. It's literally perfect. The way he pops it, catches it at the peak of his jump. It's unreal
Personal favorites of ours as well
Bro said 7.5 💀
Haha
Legitimately BUGGING 😂
In the end the costco flip it just looks so freakin' easy when Sheckler does it. Just perfect.
Nuts
