FLIP SORRY greatest skate video of all time. In terms of team, soundtrack, skill level, editing - and holding up well to standards nearly 15 years later. You actually can't beat it. It's about as classic as it gets
i nostalgia'd hard. when i first watched this video, all i cared about was skateboarding. all i did was skateboarding. i'd almost forgotten what it's like to have such passion
I I feel for you and I don't mean this as a diss but I'm afraid you bought into the all that get a family get a this get a bank account get a that... fuck that noise no truer statement was ever said your parents ruin the first half of your life your kids ruin the second we don't have a choice in the first matter but we do have a choice in the second
Same man. Lots of these clips took me straight back to tony hawk pro skater 4’s video section. I lost my passion for skating before I even hit puberty, I won’t go into the reasons because no one cares about my life story but yeah I haven’t had a passion since
@@DrunkenSlob Maybe its time to pick it back up. I got back into skateboarding recently after a tough time period in my life at 25 and I honestly forgot how much I loved it and needed it. I don't even skate stairs or anything anymore. Its pretty much just flatground grinding ledges and cruising around but its done wonders for my mental health and well-being.
Check out the Van's video of him tearing up the miniramp. He LOVES skateboarding as a lifestyle and gets all my respect and adulation for it. Thank God he keeps himself in good shape to stay relevant.
his style is ruthless and smooth at the same time. he is one of the all time greats. the way he skates, well, nobody skates like him. GEOFF ROWLEY IS A FUCKING LEGEND!!!
You’re forgetting the 7.5/7.65 deck width, maybe 50mm wheels, and vulcanized shoes with no support. Makes it even crazier. Like the old ES vid, makes it look like they’re skating popsicle sticks.
Haven't seen this part in years, takes me back a bit after a big day of rollin, boys loungin' round the telly, beer in hand the bong going round the table, watchin this part ...rewind, fast forward, slow mo, rewind again...
I swear his mid 360 boardslide down that set is forever in my mind. That's straight snowboarder stuff. His 360 flips were also so dialed. The board just kind of glided into his feet, he doesn't even stomp it down half the time. You really get an appreciation when you try half this stuff without steps or anything.
3:33 Heelflip into darkslide...no replay, no slo-mo...just flying through the (arguably) least-replicated rail trick in skateboarding. That's "Sorry" in a nutshell; too many bangers, not enough runtime.
I'm 25 as well dude, good times to look back on hu? Skate videos introduced me to music early, made me not turn into an asshole with bad taste, and kept me doing gnarlier stuff than my peers; I'm very thankful I got into that whole scene around ten, opened my eyes to punk, style, and how to conduct yourself in a take no prisoners rad way. Fucking little league doesn't do that dude.
Not only it holds up, considering it was filmed in 2002 this completely destroys anything released today. Progressive tricks, gnarliest gaps, plenty of style, rough spots, etc.
That's a tough trick to stick on a rail, you usually see it on Hubbas, that's the only way I could do it. Very underrated and completely insane, I wish we had an angle of that trick from the front.
That rail is steep, Geoff is crazy for that 🤘🏽 5:37 I found that spot in Long Beach and that bank was also steep as fuck 😂 me and my friends tried the side.
Wow....my respect and admiration for him went through the roof after seeing that darkslide. I had no idea he had one of those on tape. Shows how insanely good he was
To me this part was the apex of skateboarding. I always thought of this part when i was skateboarding, and to me this was where skateboarding was meant to be. This was before the business had say in what skateboarding was. Before the rise of greedy companies and exploitation of 8 year olds. Damn the tech invasion, killed the will to skate for me.
man this is so cool. the music makes me like it more too, just makes me feel at home and that skateboarding will never be too different from its roots.
Geoff was one of the first to do so many of those different tech tricks down handrails. Now that i'm older I appreciate it so much more when i watch it
Sorry was the video that literally had it all: humor, balls to the wall shred, technical skate mastery, pipe and timeless heroes. Forever and always one of the best, most influential and inspiring skate videos ever. Just watching a part or two from it turns anyone into a skate rat.
I remember when I first started skating. My brother handed me a yellow vhs tape and told me to watch this video. Geoff Rowley part came out and I was blown away. Been skating ever since
Fuck man. I remember this part when it came out and it was gnarly but I totally took it for granted. He's fucking nuts and so committed. I haven't skated for fifteen years but watching this has got me amped. Pity I'm beat up old and grey now hahaha. Had a rowley board once, the one with the Cheshire Cat. Was a great board but Snapped in half after a few hours doing tricks off a loading dock over a trailer haha.
Aside from the other Flip videos, I can't think of any other full length video parts of Geoff (I don't really count 411 stuff). Kinda interesting being that Geoff is a living legend - funny that he was never in a shoe video or something like that. BTW, this part, along with everything else in Sorry was insane when it came out. Raised skating to another level.
Yeah I only like to film cuz I'm 32 now and want to get all the footage I can until the day I can't ride anymore. We barely filmed in our real golden era, I can still shred but can't jump down shit for hours anymore or anything
Joshua McDougall Just can't get enough of it. If you turn down air, hangtime, and ollie and max everything else and turn on sim mode its kind of realistic.
This will always be a part of of my teenage years! Can’t tell you how many times I must have watched Sorry. My whole personality was based around this video and skateboarding 🛹 😂
He's crazier than any of these guys today. They might be more technical or smooth but I think Luan is a good comparison. But I don't think nyjah or Luan would attempt sliding down those steep ass rough rails.
+Rick Ross “narcoticaneutralis” well Nyjah back lipped a rail bigger than the El Toro one. I still prefer to watch Geoff skating, but objectively Nyjah is gnarlier.
+Carlos Ferreras Nyjah is insane, yeah he skates big stuff, and his kink rail game is certainly gnarly, but I don't think he'd try something as crazy as the gap to back 50-50 at 6:34. That shit is suuuuuuper gnarly, and the hubba looked really crusty and rough. He could've got broken off so hard.
Lee sOo a lot of recent video parts aren't that good compared to this imo. This video is 12 years old and he was one of very few people who skated a Vulc shoe back then and was hitting big stuff
God damn this brings back some SUPER early 2000s memories. After 9/11 and our country was on hi-alert; skaters use to watch basically 3 videos. Sorry/ this is skateboarding/ and Dying To Live. Country was extremely united, but objectively on lockdown. That was teenager skater life at that time.
FLIP SORRY greatest skate video of all time. In terms of team, soundtrack, skill level, editing - and holding up well to standards nearly 15 years later. You actually can't beat it. It's about as classic as it gets
Probably the skate video out there that gives one the hardest choice for a fav part. All of them are great
Definitely top 3. Up there with Menikmati and This is Skateboarding.
Defiantly one of the greatest skate videos of all time but I think my vote for the #1 spot has to be Yeah Right
Definitely agree. Every part in the video is classic that holds up today. It was surreal watching this when it came out
Misled Youth.
1998 to 2005 gold skateboarding era.
+matt Walter with how awkward and slow some people ride around, i'm backing that statement.
+Cristobal Reygadas skateboarding sucks
+austin schwartz fuck u
Dude people are stepping shit up today
The Golden Age is more like it...
He was extremely ahead of his time.
+Dion My exact thought.
Dion he sure was
Dion yep
AMen!!!
Indeed that 20 stair Ollie was huge and the rails he hit were all huge
i nostalgia'd hard. when i first watched this video, all i cared about was skateboarding. all i did was skateboarding. i'd almost forgotten what it's like to have such passion
ooh that hits me hard haha. Maube we should buy a skateboard again.
I I feel for you and I don't mean this as a diss but I'm afraid you bought into the all that get a family get a this get a bank account get a that... fuck that noise no truer statement was ever said your parents ruin the first half of your life your kids ruin the second we don't have a choice in the first matter but we do have a choice in the second

man your comment hit me right in the feels - that’s exactly how i was.
I remember when this video first came out, god damn time flies!
Yo Macie love the Siege content!
Same. This video, Round 2, and Yeah Right were my shit.
yeah. it does :/
Still watching this. If anything Appleyard became my favorite skater too over time
Flip or not.. hes a cool ass dude met him in person in Commerce Ca
siege god represents the classic skate god
"That felt fucking tasty, I'd like to try it again"
Such a legend!
Yeah because he literally bounced off the concrete, I could only imagine how bad that hurt, and he wasn’t even worried about it!
Your favorite skaters favorite skater!
MF DOOM is your favorite rappers favorite rapper
@@McGillicuddy849 rip
That's gonz
Litteraly is one of my “fav skaters” fav skater, as is mine. Geoff inspired a generation to send it! Luv
Can’t even believe that this was 18 years ago... but it still fire and for real can be a part of any new video. Level is insane
Geoff Rowley will always be a skate LEGEND
I think Rowley has to be top 10 gnarliest street skaters ever
Check out the Van's video of him tearing up the miniramp. He LOVES skateboarding as a lifestyle and gets all my respect and adulation for it. Thank God he keeps himself in good shape to stay relevant.
there's too many now to even make a top ten imho ..
Lol at the time #1
Still #1
Before Nyjah and Figgy, there was Rowley and Machnau.
Rowley=legend
his style is ruthless and smooth at the same time. he is one of the all time greats. the way he skates, well, nobody skates like him. GEOFF ROWLEY IS A FUCKING LEGEND!!!
Skates so fast... so legend
chopperbubba that's how it used to be when this vid came, i swear there was never applauding, now you see it all the time
chopperbubba iil
nnjoiij
@@paulwyremaski4578 Chad muska was applauded in his vids
I was thinking that the whole time I was like jeez he just flies for every trick
2019 and this part still goes hard...
Harder than ever
@@f0otball41 goes harder than the Rona
Even ‘22!…………
You’re forgetting the 7.5/7.65 deck width, maybe 50mm wheels, and vulcanized shoes with no support. Makes it even crazier. Like the old ES vid, makes it look like they’re skating popsicle sticks.
@@stalwartzero7001 solid point!!!!
2002 is considered classic? Whoo, time flies.
Skate years are different from life years
Yeah with how fast skating has progressed. It's crazy.
Even if you go off of the definition of a classic car(20 years or older) its not far off
Its the skating you youngfucks. Watch the skating..
ya, but there is so much speed in his style. people don't skate like this anymore..
I remember when we were kids we used to pronounce his name "Gee-off".
Joe Blow still do hahah
Same.
Still do
I always pronounced it that way when I played Tony Hawk.
>not still pronouncing it like that
You're not really living, son.
Haven't seen this part in years, takes me back a bit after a big day of rollin, boys loungin' round the telly, beer in hand the bong going round the table, watchin this part ...rewind, fast forward, slow mo, rewind again...
this part would still blow people away if it was released today
Kept thinking each trick was the ender like halfway through
I swear his mid 360 boardslide down that set is forever in my mind. That's straight snowboarder stuff. His 360 flips were also so dialed. The board just kind of glided into his feet, he doesn't even stomp it down half the time. You really get an appreciation when you try half this stuff without steps or anything.
Fearless, technical and fast - Rowley glides through the air like a ballerina - his timing and balance are flawless
3:33
Heelflip into darkslide...no replay, no slo-mo...just flying through the (arguably) least-replicated rail trick in skateboarding.
That's "Sorry" in a nutshell; too many bangers, not enough runtime.
I remember when this came out, I was 12 skating in skipton/leeds UK. 25 now miss them days
+Winstan the old good years....
Skipton skate park forever bro
I'm 25 as well dude, good times to look back on hu?

@@DiamorphineDeath UPDATE: Now 32 nearly 33... life creeps up on you :)
It's funny that he did tricks then, that noone will try to commit today
+Tobias Van den Broeck true Geoff Did History with this video. hard to imagine something that could pump me more when i was 13
Chris Troy used to get me pumped to go skate
I was about to say the same thing. If this part came out today it would still be a very relevant part. geoff is timeless
Easily the gnarliest part of all time. It still holds up today even with all of these new generation robots.
Not only it holds up, considering it was filmed in 2002 this completely destroys anything released today. Progressive tricks, gnarliest gaps, plenty of style, rough spots, etc.
The gnarliest... of all time? No... but it definitely holds up.
Definitely a classic part that still holds up well even today.
I don't think life will ever be better than it was when I was 12, in 2002. Skating. Young. Naive.
180 5-0 on Wilshire 15 is probably one of the top tricks ever done on that rail.
Dark_Matter what part of the video is that one?
Josh Lira 5:25
That's a tough trick to stick on a rail, you usually see it on Hubbas, that's the only way I could do it. Very underrated and completely insane, I wish we had an angle of that trick from the front.
That rail is steep, Geoff is crazy for that 🤘🏽 5:37 I found that spot in Long Beach and that bank was also steep as fuck 😂 me and my friends tried the side.
Can't believe this was a decade ago. It seems like yesterday I was watching these skate videos and just felt nothing but pure inspiration.
i like how the last minute is just banger after banger after banger :D
just skate because you enjoy it, these videos are here to inspire us!
Out of control gnarly. He put in work and kept skateboarding punk rock. Legend.
I miss skating
Wow....my respect and admiration for him went through the roof after seeing that darkslide. I had no idea he had one of those on tape. Shows how insanely good he was
"you see that?... it fuckin hurt" LOL
He said
,a fucking hand tbh
Love how this classic parts have punk rock all over the place, way more entertaining than trap crap
You like Geoff Rowley
Even with the extreme over saturation of incredible skateboarding today this part still holds it's own. 17 years later!!!!!
I’ve been watching SLS competitions and he is a great commentator. I didn’t realize how good at skateboarding he was. This video is awesome
My fav skater still and fav shoes of all time
Gianni Hernandez hell yeah!!
I had the white with red stripe lol
I never had his shoes but always wanted a pair
Rowley will always be one of the greats. Definitely text book worthy.
Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 bring me here, when Geoff Rowley does 360 flip to Lip Slide down to hand rails, and Rowley Darkslide above campus table.
I grew up watching this video everyday before i skated. For it being only 2002 this was/is still some of the best skateboarding.
To me this part was the apex of skateboarding. I always thought of this part when i was skateboarding, and to me this was where skateboarding was meant to be. This was before the business had say in what skateboarding was. Before the rise of greedy companies and exploitation of 8 year olds. Damn the tech invasion, killed the will to skate for me.
Good, leave, true skaters will keep skating, hope you find your passion
One of my favorite videos, the music fits so well with it.
Man this was a amazing to watch he's insane
The music scene of the late 90s early 2ks really helped the skate scene. Never have it quite the same again. Skate or die! 4lyf. Keep shredding
Geoff and Boulala are my heroes man! Skate forever!
people don't realize how much this video moved the needle and pushed skateboarding forward. Truly sick vid
Stayed for the I'm the walrus cover :D
Theres nobody in Skateboarding like this man.
One of a kind
Should've left Johnny Rotten's intro in what the fuck
How could anyone thumbs down this vid?????!!!!!
this guys healthcare plan has got to be up the roof lol
the UK has universal healthcare, I'm sure the NHS don't like him much though.
dagorider88 idk about up but probably through
For each slam he gets a six pack and a can of beans
All he'd have to do is come back to uk and he have free health care lol
“Free”
How classic is this today ❤
Nobody does Darkslides anymore
they should thoe
ruins your board.
Jim Greco Deathwish video
Powderkeg I always expected them to come back heavy cause they're coo
I don't remember anyone doing them then besides rowley lol
2 decades ago and still holds up.
39 people only watch street league.
What's wrong with watching streetleague?
guillermo procel Big corporations trying to make a profit out of skateboarding.
It's just skateboarding. The best of the best battle. Just enjoy it friend.
Geoff Rowley commentates street league...
Trojan Burgess ya but he aint streat league.
sorry and really sorry were raw as it gets! i remember being addicted to both those videos. still am
I'm 49 years old and that body bounce @ 0:50 was higher than my ollie.
man this is so cool. the music makes me like it more too, just makes me feel at home and that skateboarding will never be too different from its roots.
Geoff Rowley - handrail slayer
i watched this movie so many freaking times as a kid
4:28 "look at 'im, not me, tit" -- a smart British fellow.
Geoff was one of the first to do so many of those different tech tricks down handrails. Now that i'm older I appreciate it so much more when i watch it
It is weird to think that Geoff Rowleys "Sorry" Part is a classic now.
Sorry was the video that literally had it all: humor, balls to the wall shred, technical skate mastery, pipe and timeless heroes. Forever and always one of the best, most influential and inspiring skate videos ever. Just watching a part or two from it turns anyone into a skate rat.
clearly Kyle Walker saw this as a kid
Oh man I thought the exact same thing!
One of the greatest styles in skateboarding period.
2:55 Anyone else have this part of the video skip?
skipped part is 360 flip to bs noseslide on the ledge
No
I do (?)
weird, my mind just filled in the flip
@@SK8Jensen How do you know man?
Geoff Rowley is my biggest inspiration in skateboarding. He's my hero
Growley, French Fred and a funny Beatles cover.
Sorry is up there with Video Days. 100
I remember when I first started skating.
My brother handed me a yellow vhs tape and told me to watch this video. Geoff Rowley part came out and I was blown away.

This movie is the best street skating video ever made.
This is real skateboarding... not the instagramers out there
Yeah I only like to film cuz I'm 32 now and want to get all the footage I can until the day I can't ride anymore. We barely filmed in our real golden era, I can still shred but can't jump down shit for hours anymore or anything

cool take on a beatles track... anyone have idea about the band?
Grey matter- walrus.
his video parts are always awesome. hes was seriously was before his time
Anybody remember tony hawk pro Skater 4??
Best Tony hawk game ever made.
I own it and play it constantly
Joshua McDougall :)
Joshua McDougall Just can't get enough of it. If you turn down air, hangtime, and ollie and max everything else and turn on sim mode its kind of realistic.
Hyped for tony hawk pro skater 5 :D hopefully it comes out for PC at some stage after console release
Seriously nostalgic bliss. One of the best clips of all time.
I looked at this whole video like :o
Sorry,my favorite video of all of all time,thee best music, the best skaters,the best skateboarding,the best style ! the best of all
3:33 Rowley Darkslide
First skate video I ever downloaded and watched on Napster days. Still enjoyable over a decade later
Some years before Nike figured it out...

15 years old and this still would kill today
I AM THE WALRUS, COO COO KA-CHU
BEST skate team video ever. Young Bastien salabanzi
He's crazier than any of these guys today. They might be more technical or smooth but I think Luan is a good comparison. But I don't think nyjah or Luan would attempt sliding down those steep ass rough rails.
Luna doesn't skate rAils very much
+Rick Ross “narcoticaneutralis” well Nyjah back lipped a rail bigger than the El Toro one. I still prefer to watch Geoff skating, but objectively Nyjah is gnarlier.
+Carlos Ferreras Nyjah is insane, yeah he skates big stuff, and his kink rail game is certainly gnarly, but I don't think he'd try something as crazy as the gap to back 50-50 at 6:34. That shit is suuuuuuper gnarly, and the hubba looked really crusty and rough. He could've got broken off so hard.
Not sure how I missed this growing up but just watched it for the first time and its still mindblowing
does this guy still skate today?.. are the new skaters these days better compared to this?
Yeah, he's the last skater of them all. They all quit.
they who?
Lee sOo a lot of recent video parts aren't that good compared to this imo. This video is 12 years old and he was one of very few people who skated a Vulc shoe back then and was hitting big stuff
but does he still skate today? like sponsored and all etc.
Yes, I thinnk he's working on a new vans part, umm i remember the last part he worked on was his battle commander

sorry was one of those videos i watched over and over those were the best times
well every single skate demo is good but in m opinion tory pudwills big bang will always be my fave

This part was a few years ahead of its time. This is why hes a legend
^ yes
