      That kid does not even deserve to be associated with a skateboard.

        Hey guys. This is me.



        I'm pretty good at skateboarding, right?

        PS ignore the part of the link that says "rodney+mullen".

            Rodney Mullen is the absolute god of (street) skateboarding.

                Not totally, he barely even skates street. All he ever does is tech tricks. There are better "street" skaters.

                  It all depends on your definition of "street."

                  Rodney Mullen literally skates street. He does an awesome job of it too. Much more impressive than those losers throwing themselves down big stair sets.

                  The sad thing is that for most people "street" means those stupid stair sets, rather than standard real street terrain. Sure, those sets do appear in street skating, but to only consider something street if it involves a stair set (which is uncharacteristic of actual street skating) is ignorant.

                  And, actually, from what I've seen of Mullen on stairs, he's quite skillful at them. No, he doesn't ollie 50 stairs, but I'd say an impressive flip down a medium size set is more impressive than a simple ollie on a huge gap.

                    why would someone carefully edit a video so incriminating?

                        True, but there have been a lot of people in my opinion who have been more creative with their surroundings than Mullen. He is insanely good at tech, don't get me wrong.
