your fav street sk8r from 90’s & why (in video) ?

Avatar

As the 90’s saw the real shift to modern day skating, I thought I would post this to relive some of the golden days of the 90’s.
I know that there are different styles (tech/big rails etc) but I am sure the results will vary allot as I am struggling to think of a specific person or video part…..but here goes. Jeremy Wray PlanB.

One of my fave skaters has always been Daewon Song. I love his style and how tech he rides with all his combos of ledge work with flips and manual combos. Also his creativeness with roofs and park benches I find him amazing to watch. I also love watching him ride mini ramps.
When looking for a clip of his to post, I found one I had only seen once i think. Rodney Mullen v Daewon Song.
It made me remember how bloody awesome Rodney Mullen is too. He was so ahead of his time with the his riding and the technicalty he was able to show with his board. Mind blowing!
Hope you enjoy this vid as i did!



Edit even though this clip is 2004 i think its still awesome.

Here are two earlier ones from teh 90s to confirm their awesomeness

Chad Muska; for some reason i cant put my finger on he mesmorized me with his skills/style back when i was a kid, hell when i was accepted to the academy of sport they had a little questionaire to fill out and under most inspiring sportsperson i put chad muska grin  considering i was going in for rugby union the coaches hadd to ask me who the fuck was chad muska!

it wasnt until later on that i came to realise the extreme awesomeness that is rodney mullen. HIs videos at the end of tony hawks pro skating blew my mind!

this video made me believe he wasnt human; like it takes balls to hit a massive rail/pipe/stairset. but this, ladies and gentlemen, is pure skill at its finest!

Just saw this, pretty sure its not a legit quote, but made me laugh anyway

Tony Hawk : I was? sent by god to show you people how to skate.

Rodney mullen : I didn’t send anyone

Rodney Mullen is amazing!!! Loved all the skaters posted above though too. Brings back memories…

Is Rodney still making skate videos? Last I saw him was in RM vs DS round 3 I think, and it had Ryan Scheckler in it when he was younger too. I haven’t kept up to date at all though.
