I always get the feeling that Mike could skate his way out of a burning building

there's no taking away his flat-land infused pump, laying plants on transitions so fluid, it's got 80's stamped and endorsed, Legendary figure we see growing up from turning pro to sponsored rider to owning his own brand, we see him developing through magazines and Co. videos. Oldskool style of skating compensates for non-technical Mike V just doesnt subscribe to. Instead he goes BIG. keeps on with distinguished style. Never shys away from a fight. bless Mike V. Lotsa' love and respect from, Sabah, North Borneo, East Malaysia.

unbelievable

guys got a lotta tricks up all his sleeves. skates w/confidence and power. does what he wants. most impressive!

Imagine how this part would of been if he still had his Ollie from the 90’s 🤯 even after his injury he fucking shreds

1:17 woah

Forget about the gnarly, he is pure talent, style and creativity, all timeless and getting more interesting and more admirable through time.

This man is the reason double kicktail skateboards became popular. Every modern skater owes him a debt.

varial flip grab❤️‍🔥

this is how i want to skate

I feel like such a dork looking back at it, but Mike V is my favorite skater and I tried to emulate his style so hard that it's definitely influenced how I turned out as a person.

The darkest skate part ever filmed.

Vos porque Gene is muchas rampas

Washout and go

who's here after that battle scars video?

Mike V. Is like the spirit of skateboarding in physical form

Every time I see Mike V skating it feels so powerful...I love this kind of approach...Kinda of go like 200 mph fast, and explode to your trick...even the saves with a hand grip and stuff look amazing..total control.

Mike V in Element, good times!!

👍👍👍👍👍👍

Mike is awesome ..so much creativity ...is not like other good skaters they know lots of diffucul tricks you wach them is all same think ...but this guy me gosh ...i watching him its crazy ..wall ride catch nose turn back and jump back 180 ...are u kidding me? who can do that he take is old school style and make him total perfection and inovate lots of old school tricks ..can u make handplant turn almost frontflip catch the board and land to miniramp?? fucking hell...or do Caveman 180 rotacion with fingerflip down to stairs but dont put feets on ground just land from board so hard,,,,awesome

anyone have this in higher quality?

Great part. His tricks are a perfect fusion of old school and modern. And done with very distinct style and all fully tweaked out. So glad I came up in the 80's and got to experience skateboarding before street was a thing, and then to see it explode and evolve.

i remember this dropped when i was like 15. i hated on it so much at the time. i was young and ignorant. looking back man this part is fucking gnarly

So much power!

By far the best

an absolute natural on a skateboard... hell yeah

I know it's a long shot but what is that trick called at 52 seconds

If you saw this live, as in you were 10ft from him as he flew himself up a wall and dropped back down into a quarter pipe, you’d be clapping and saying wtf??? Video doesn’t capture the intensity and ballsiness of his skating. I’ve seen him skate at parks and when he is there he is the best one there and all eyes are on him. And you clap without hesitating when he pulls a huge 360 grab over a transition.

Lmao what a weak fucking part!

rock

eres lo maximo compadre , mi inspiracion !

And that notion of "not as technically difficult" is something else. I can pull 360 double flips first try and flip nosegrinds. But Mike V does stuff in terrain so many terrains and in such a big extension that I can't really mess with his stuff. Respect to this man, he is awesome and people who hate his style are young ignorant minds that sold into the standarization of skateboaring.

Fucking legend.

After reading this I never want to skate again. You just ruined it for me... Thanks

The song playing in the video is Mike V's band I'm pretty sure, makes it even more sick!

mike it's incredible

@snbggt souds like a quote from the lizard king

i hate people that say the tricks like this r not actuall tricks they justdon't get it without theese trick that mike v is keepein alive there would be no newschool tricks and what he is doing is real skating there is no rules in skateboarding that tell you what is a trick and wha isn't that is what is supposed to make skating special mike is just doing what he wants to do on the skateboard he is just having fun and expressing himself which is what skating is all about
