Afi - The boy who destroyed the world

God bless Rodney Mullen, he never lost his "glow".

[@devanwoodruff7289]

Mullen's the reason I spent 100s of hours learning caspers, darkslides, and primo shit. Born in 89'. Skating, THPS and AFI meant everything to me :)

[@riotxix]

I used to watch this "*11 years ago*" when I was 18, and it still never fails to blow me away! The AFI song just as much. "Once there was a boy who had a vibrant glow.." Incredible.

I remembering replaying this video on THPS over, and over, and OVER again. So to watch this again with this exact soundtrack is really just mindblowing

[@dzhordanguyyar]

I remember being addict to this song on THPS3 when I was 9 lol *nostalgic* Rodney the god of street skateboarding.

[@VaporMemory]

Perfect video for this track. Used to jam out to old school AFI all the time while skating.

This era of skate punk was the best imo.. so many good bands and the pace of it suited skating perfectly..

This will always be one of my favorite skate videos. 1:15 all I can do is shake my head and laugh. Ridiculous. Dude is a human cheat code with the perfect balance.

[@punkbus1]

Rodney Mullen and AFI. Can't go wrong

[@Peksisarvinen]

I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen this clip to this day. It's still so incredible. I watched it four times before I even wrote this comment. This was the pinnacle of skateboarding back in the 2000's. Hell, it's still the pinnacle to this day in many ways. There are like two or three pro skaters who can do ANY of the things Mullen did. I know Giger has underflips on lock and can do darkslides. Andy Anderson can probably do a lot of the manny stuff, and Griffin can do the trickier, faster flip tricks probably. But that's as far as it goes. Not one of the top pros could ever replicate this part, no matter how hard they tried. That's how much of a genius Mullen was/is. And this was, for many of us, the introduction to him. It inspired us, and simultaneously, it made us realize just how absolutely talentless we are when compared to the goat. And the song selection was on point, too. It fits the part perfectly, and is just an amazing song in it's own right.

[@Denso59]

Some japanese dudes are now killin it on freestyle. Some of them master the art of manual, casper, primo, truckstand ... so there's always a hope that the new generation will bring us some new innovative way to skate

[@abdullakc]

Same here

[@dboyedoe]

This video was just perfect. Im so glad they added this bonus content to THPS3, i loved the Kareem Campbell one too for the feel.

[@Fourrings80]

The god of skateboarding. All skateboarders should bow down to Mullen!

[@Raidenstream]

Remember watching thousand times this video on THPS 3, still incredible! Rodney Mullen is definitely the most creative skater on flat land

[@abdullakc]

Same here

[@craigwitt5]

man those people walking by at 0:23 just walked on by not knowing the greatest skater to walk the face of the planet was getting down

[@grizzlyer2200]

i think those tricks were normal back then cuz there were competitions for flatground tricks like that so they mustve been used to it but now

[@1truthbegettingtold275]

I would have lit up a joint and watched.

[@yancieb]

and theyre both rubbing their armpits for some reason...I always wondered why the hell they were both rubbing their armpits, like ive sat there and pondered on it for like an hour. Actually now that I look at it, it just looks like theyre rolling up their sleeves hahahaha.

[@Chico_Empanada]

Hay muy pocas canciones asi, se nota que la cantan con el alma.❤

[@KPBTS]

Esa fue la epoca dorada de AFI, cuando hacian Hardcore Punk, luego sacaron el disco Black Sails In the Sunset y empezaron a cambiar su estilo a un hardcore mas Dark, ya despues del disco Sing the Sorrow empezaron a cambiar su sonido a algo mas comercial, hasta llegar a ser el AFI que todos conocemos, cuando se volvieron Emo y empezaron a hacer mas rock pop.

[@isaelvirginio3370]

Deawon song is better, fam.

[@adamturner2836]

@@iambiglucas no he isn't!! Mullen had to create his tricks, everyone since copies so go suck one.. Imitation is not better than the creation not matter what you think. Mullen is and always will be the best skateboarder ever, he created every trick that is used today and if not its inspired from his tricks. That is being the best!!

[@omgwtflmaololrotfl2368]

Agreed the are very few who was on Mullen's level ever!!! Ramp is the Hawk goat!!!

[@scruffybob42088]

I love how he smiles when he's please with what he's just did.

Зашёл послушать песенку, а сам засмотрелся) Такой уровень! Эх, жаль в детстве мама не купила мне борд, да и вообще печально что он не развит так в России как в Америке. Собственно песенку я из THPS3 и узнал. Почему то только она одна нравится из всей серии, наверное потому что первая.
