No one has gone that hard for that long. Legend.
Tony Alva was killing it b4 Hassan and is still in it
What about Chris miller?
I think he means in terms of a gnarly thrasher type slam or glory type skater. Omar is gnarly. One of the greats.
@sephtical11 I wish skateboarding would've got to see more of this talented young man : ua-cam.com/video/KKDZTTbNAZg/v-deo.html, ua-cam.com/video/Kn7OP0tOyVU/v-deo.html May he continue R.ollin' I.n P.aradise🙏
@@urdad9853thanks but we all know that before you said anything..
YOU KOOK
Love SixStair and mad respect to Omar for being an inspiration to us older dudes who still skate. Guy is an absolute beast.
Grosso wouldn't be dead without them!
I'm pumped 100% on these trucks!!!❤❤❤
Facts 🤙
Im same age and still skate, i can not figure out how he still charges better than the kids and still walk. I hobble around for a week when i fall very hard. Hes a legend 🤘🤘
Skated with Omar a couple times, right after his blockhead pro model dropped, and again later at the Dew Tour. After all those years not only was he skateboarding at a level that would make him relevant presently, but of all the legendary icons in the bowl that day, was far and away the sickest. We talked about skating together and he actually remembered that day down to the details. Nicest guy you could ever meet. Some say its best to avoid meeting your heroes because they might dispel your image , but Omar is the exact opposite of that
Omar is a beast of skating 100% with no pads and reaching the potential of being a talent skater to continuing design the graphics from the old classic generation skateboard.
Its amazing to see people like Omar who still skate at his level after so many years and soo many slams. Inspiring
Still rolling with the young guys what a legend
Walks like an old man and skates like a teenage pro.. love this dude he shreds like no other!
Omar helped relight my fire to skate way more since COVID. Just being the same age as him and seeing him go off has been an inspiration to recapture my limited skateboarding capabilities - being immersed in skateboarding again has really enhanced life and put things in perspective as a lifelong skateboarder. This isn't passed us. There is still so much to put into it and get out of it. I am beyond grateful for him and the stoke he projects and shares. Thank you, Omar!
Anything SixStair is apart of - Its gonna be great... A SixStair 30 minutes mini doc on Omar Hassan... It Will be epic.... 12-13 long hours to go.....
The best skater to meet in person! Always ripping so hard
👏👏👏
OMAR OMAR OMAR
One of my all time greatest influences in skating. It's like he has an aura or force field around him, protecting and keeping his talent on point.
One of the sickest OGs ever! Keep Bringing the Heat! 👊🔥🤘
The dude is awesome, just giving it 100% 100% of the time, skates everything. A true skateboarder if there ever was one...totally inspiringl!..
I got 12 screws and 2 plates holding my arm together. Did it on an Omar board, bombshell pin-up graphic from 2001.
Dude is gnarliness incarnate.
Omar was the shit when I first stepped on a skateboard. And Omar has been the shit every day since. If any skater deserves a lifetime achievement award its him.
I´m 44. I grew watching legends. Omar is one of them. Great inspiration,
omar is one of the dudes that makes really gnarly tricks look easy and casual, hes always so in control of his board
So glad they made sure Omar Hassan w
Is being repoed correctly.
Omar ! You are the man ! Your name is synonymous with gnarley !!
Come on SixStair. Nobody can replace Grosso but someone has to carry the torch and keep the history of skateboarding on the forefront. Love you guys.
I met Omar back in like 1995. He just randomly showed up at our local indoor park in Stockholm Sweden, in the winter. He was just skating around all alone. Gave me some stickers, nicest pro I've met to date.
ONE OF THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME
Congrats Foo.. We love you OMAR!! Epic sh*t.. Now go skate!
WE ♥️ OMAR❗
Man was a legend when I was young, now I'm old he's still ripping!
Dude is one of the gnarliest skaters ever.
One of my favorite skaters of all time. I remember getting both of his Vans pro models in elementary school that came out in 01-02
Omar is a beast!!! There aren't many skaters I watch,he is one. Luv that guy!
I'm 48 and still rolling. Every time I bitch about something or think I'm "getting to old for this shit", I also think...Omar is out-shredding most of the world right now. Shut up and skate!! Thank you Omar!
This dude is a freaking MACHINE
A true legend, Thank you Omar.
Seen this man shredding my local park a few weeks back
Never ever stop getting in the van. Omar is the real deal.
I gotta say they need to bring a min ramp contest like that back. Side to side to side to spine, can’t believe we have never seen that again
He was one of my top favs back in the day. Dude killed it and still does !
Growing up as a 411 kid, new Omar clips always made my day
This was so sick! Legendary ripper Omar 🤘
Always dug his first pro model. Stoked he skates just as hard as he did 30 years ago. Respect.
Omar footage a real hero's journey. Must see for all cultural sports fans. :-)
Back in the day, there was sort of a clear divide between vert skaters and street skaters.
Omar Hassan has always been an all-terrain skater. I always loved that about him.
Omar is the man 😎 much respect 🤟🏽
Omar!!!!!! Fuck yeah. A true legend and inspiration
Big UPs to this living legend. Much Respect brotha!
OMAR 🎯🎯🎯
It was years ago. I’m east coast. We went to Virginia Beach for a pro contest. Our first time. We went to trashmore Omar was blasting. He was a runt ripping it. We were stoked !! We met all the pros and had a fucking blast !!!!
Def one of my all time fav skaters...Omar is GNARLY AF!!! RESPECT TO THE O.G!!!! 🫶💯
He place the capital G to gnarly word!! All my Respect for this Warrior !!
Will always be remembered for years to come as one of the greatest all-terrain skateboarders ever. One of my favorites forever.
Such a rad dude. What a legend
BEAST
Omar is the truest form of a skatebaorder
I remember meeting Omar Hassan at the Vans skatepark opening at Great Lakes Crossing in Rochester Michigan. It was him and Karma that were shredding around. I was absolutely blown away by their skating, but Omar and karma’s kindness was second to none. Really nice guys and didn’t try to run off if you approached them, they stood there to chat with you until you were the one done with the conversation. I still have my vans 8x10 pages they signed for me at the event. Legends for a reason!
Yeah Omar ❤
One of my hero’s 💪!
Omar forever ♥️
He's always been one of my favorites. Omar Hassan RULES!!!
I have been a fan forever. When I met him he was so amazing to me and my family. A true legend.
A true legend, hell yeah! 🔥🔥🔥
One of my top favorite skaters
Thanks, this was great! Omar has always been one of my favorite skateboarders!
His first pro Blockhead model & Eric Dressen Everslick. Two of the best boards I've ever skated.
Been a fan since the Blockhead days, Omar rules. Blockhead decks were wicked, as was their team.
Omar turned Promar when I was 15 and I'm a grandad now. That's awesome.
Your favorite skateboarders favorite skateboarder😊 all hail Omar
Legend. All Hail.
The first skate magazine I picked up in Australia in probably 1993 (Slam) had a pic of Omar on a mini ramp doing some sort of flipped board stall and I still remember it being the initial spark for me to take up skating and have it as my number one passion for the next 20 or so years. Not skating much these days but the culture, the comradely and everything else that goes along with skateboarding is still with me for eternity. Thank you Omar 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Been watching Omar do his thing for many years. I believe he is a Hall Of Fame skater without question.🤙🤙⚒️
Bromar has always been one of my favorites. Dude rips. Got his BL ripper board hanging on the wall in my son’s bedroom
One of few skater I bother to follow on IG! Best dude.
Thank you, OMar 1000% , sixt stair &Indy!!!
All in ! Omar is a legend !
I honestly didn't think Omar would make it this long, he's just too gnarly. Eternal respect, LABEL KILLS!
Sick film about a sick ass skater. Inspiring me since the 90s. Dude has one speed. Keep shredding, Omar, thanks for everything
Legend. God bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great documentary!! The man is badass
Love this guy!
GREAT docu!! Omar (BROmar!!) has inspired me for all 3 of these decades in many unique ways and I have to thank y’all for putting together an epic/inspirational nod to the Man the Myth!! Maximum Respect!!!!
One of my favorite OG Skaters #Skate or Die🔥
All Terrain Omar 👊🏻
Omar used to skate my half pipe in Costa Mesa 1990 ! And Paul Schmitt ramp on Center St behind Stater Bros ! Good times !
Time to dust off the old board and skate! Thanks Omar.
-40 yr old fan.
Wow that was some excellent production work there. Thanks Indy, everyone involved, and of course Omar for being a freakin legend and inspiration for a bazillion years.
Had a centerfold of him doing a pool gap in the 90s in high school on my wall for years. In the time of vert or street 90s there was Omar. So amazing he's still this good and dedicated.
He possibly has the best skate photo portfolio of all time. Always been a fan of the omar!
I here a lot of comments about how gnarly and all-around terrain beast Omar is, but not enough gets said about something that should also be obvious: such great, balanced style! If you want to use an example of how to do a trick *well*, just check out Omar.
Dudes head is iconic ffs. Let alone the burl, huck, and outright stoke he's brought to skating.
It's also incredible that a burly hesh old skool guy didn't go off the rails on junk or other weirdness. Long live Omar.
Goat.
So Great. ❤
A legend!!!
One of my favorite rad dudes ! Big O !
Skated with him at Hickam hangar. Love you bro
Shitya made the day! Much deserved to a legend, and well done. Cheers
Thank you for making this for the fans. Omar is one of my all time favorite skaters and I remember pretending I was him when I’d skate as a youth ❤
Rad video! Mad respect to Omar for ripping all these years. My favorite part of video was him doing the Padless 540 in a pool. Doesn't get any more gnar buckle than that.
Omar rips so hard still. Such an inspiration. I always like the skaters who would skate anything. Cardiel, Omar and Wade Speyer.
Omar is still on top killing it!
And older than me.
Cheers. 🤜🤛
Incredible! Legend status has now graduated to Icon. Great video SixStair!
Amazing! GOAT!!!!!!
Sick. Legend. Lifer.
respect
All the old heads at the Skatepark in Tucson this morning were talking about this video dropping.
