I've always been a big fan of Rodney. I could watch that video 100 times and I'd still be saying "wow".
Someone needs to get him hooked on wakeskating...

| Quote: | | Skating first appealed to me because of the type of people that did it, plus the fact it wasn't organized or coached. There was no "perfect swing" to master; everybody did things their own way, and every way seemed "right." There was nobody telling me that I wasn't good enough, or that I should be more like the other guy, or that I had to beat the other guy... Even at contests, skaters didn't seem to be competing against each other; everybody just did their own thing, together. What drives me is pretty simple: I love skateboarding. It helps me be me; it's how I feel free. |
-Rodney Mullen-
.......amen to that 
*his is also the favourite deck in my (skateboard) collection.
Mullens first pro deck...........Powell Peralta (1980) |

Did anyone see "The Man Who Souled the World" on FuelTV about a week ago? I never knew that Rodney had to be shoved into street skating. He is an interesting guy to watch talk.

Did they show that part from Rubbish Heap where Jeremy Klien (I think) breaks his freestyle board and makes him ride a street board. Funny stuff.
