DON'T BREAK THE INDESTRUCTIBLE RODNEY MULLEN SKATEBOARD

[@pastortroy4life]

Rodney Mullen has done tricks that haven't been replicated in 20 years and created the modern skateboard and all the tricks we use. GOAT no doubt.

[@brailleskateboarding]

Yes

[@Nothingforever192]

Rodney Mullen, Daewon Song and Tom Penny are seriously talented

[@mastod0n1]

​@@Pifagorass.....what?

[@markprice2225]

@pastortroy4life Did Rodney Mullen invent and skate the 1st popsicle?? I might call BS tho, he was skateboarding freestyle in 1980 with a weird Florida company deck

[@markprice2225]

And then in The Bones Brigade Video Show, he's skateboarding a deck that pretty much every kid in the 80s had! Then, decks got bigger and every1 had the Tony Hawk jawn

[@sickaholic]

When I first saw a Rodney Mullen skate video about twenty years ago it absolutely blew my mind. That man reinvented skateboarding. He's a legend!

He didnt reinvent it, he DID INVENT IT

[@PHeMoX]

He's who got me into skating for sure. And I was around when there was the whole vert skating hype with Tony Hawk and so on. It was the insane street skating and tricks that completely mesmerised me. There's no way Rodney Mullen is not the all time GOAT.

[@devinanderson6716]

Nah, he didn't reinvite it. He pioneered it!

Going through it too. Just don't spiral into negativity. We'll come out stronger... we'll need to in order to be resiliant through the next phase. Keep your head up. Cheers to all the supportive comments... nice to see it when otherwise things can turn hostile so quickly especially in online spaces. Also, Rodney Mullen is indeed the MAN

[@jeremycollins6380]

Nothing but love for Rodney Mullen and his innovations. He has been nothing but an asset to skateboarding. Hes absolutely the goat… The catalyst of all street. Tony definitely deserve the title for very or transition. Credit where credit is due.

[@papa_da_engineer]

Who else would love to see Rodney skate the Braille House 🏠🛹🙋🙋🙋🙋

[@elusivelectron]

I can't believe they wanted to destroy the deck. That is the best looking deck I've ever seen. I'd have to add transparent grip tape to that board.

[@jensenacklese3049]

Can we set this up? 😂 rodney would demolish that place

[@CharleyBlumer17]

​@@elusivelectroni agree but at the same time. This was a truly honest review of the board.

[@brenreidy8763]

It's absolutely no question that Rodney Mullen is by FAR the best street skater of all time. Especially from a technical perspective.

[@karebushmarebu233]

nah, he was the best freestyle skater in the world, no question, and an amazing and important Street skater, but i wouldn't say he's the #1 street skater if we are just talking video parts, runs, tricks ect.

[@jasongood5396]

The dude created the popsicle shape that IS skateboarding & what Everyone pretty much uses.. which is what made Everyone the skater that they are/became. So yeah, he's the GOAT. He re-Inveted the entire game on so many levels. I'm not sure there's anyone in the history (of) skateboarding that has contributed as much to it, from tricks to technology & everything else in-between.

[@vids595]

[@ganiniii]

His impact on the sport and all the new doors he opened up are countless. There's skateboarding before and after Rodney Mullen.

[@simritnam612]

BR & After Rodney

[@properfpv7160]

I have 2 of those Uber boards. I love them. They’re not trying to be indestructible. They’re just supposed to be lighter and have the same feel and pop as a Canadian Maple deck. The Canadian Maple is denser than Chinese maple so it pops better but is heavier. Funny thing is the Uber deck weighs the same as a Chinese maple deck but it pops like a Canadian maple since the majority is actually Canadian maple with a foam core. It will last longer, is lighter and tougher than a regular Canadian maple deck but don’t expect it to be bulletproof.

[@daviddefixe37]

not expecting to be bulletproof , but to hold at least a frontside lip slide or a kickflip front board on the first day...

[@jakesacher2078]

It’s a carbon fiber inner deck with a foam deck inside

[@sanemaniakmind]

@@daviddefixe37 i literally broke my last 6 boards learning heel flip front board. the only thing to survive a while is a flight deck would love if this was a cheaper option.(just watched the 10 min mark. never mind)

[@absolutedegenerate2992]

@@sanemaniakmind you should try a capsule board, pretty much this but actually indestructible, heck braille had troubles breaking it... they covered one on this channel and it is way cheaper than the slate 3

[@punkfiendofficial]

Rodney is a legend he set a milestone for freestyle skateboarding. Great video Braille fam

[@Neoreaver]

He invented just about everything.

[@emperortrevornorton3119]

He could make flat ground game of skate impossible for 99% of other skaters and barely even bringing the board off the ground

[@ceryneianhinds]

A group episode of Hot Ones with all of you would be so sick

[@brailleskateboarding]

Yes it would.

[@robertjackson18]

A group Hot Ones but give JD regular buffalo wings so his reaction makes everyone else feel like chumps 😅

[@Marylandtecher86]

If you have ever watched Rodney skate in person it’s hard to say there’s anyone better. He’s literally Mr.Consistency. No one has won more world championship skating competitions. Like 34 times in a row? On the 35th he just phoned it in and decided not to compete again? Maybe someone might have thought of his tricks (90% of what we use in skating today) however the way his mind works is so insane he advanced skateboarding by at least a decade or two by skating in his garage 😂 He’s such a genius he pushed Hard to get Daewon into the spotlight and said this is your new guy. Like it or not without Mullen we would have been in the dark ages of skateboarding for at least another 10 or 15 years. Many skaters we know today might not exist, the sport that transformed onto the streets could have died altogether. And worst of all we might have never even discovered Daewon Song, my second favorite skater of all time. Sorry Daewon but Rodney saved my soul, spirit, sanity by showing me how to have fun in a parking lot. So Daewon may be better now, but Mullen made the most impact on skateboarding as a whole. Love them both. Love all skaters. I’ve been skating my Uber deck for around 4 years now Btw. For old washed up skaters like myself, or casual skaters that board will last for years and years, never changing its pop or feel. Not even joking. Thanks for doing this video also, that board is great. It’s not unbreakable though. It’s only meant to keep its pop and shape for years. If you skate like Mullen, flat ground, technical street skating, that board will last you for a very very long time. Sorry for the super long message though I had to talk about my idol haha. Have a great skate day everyone 😊

Best skater of all time.... Rodney Mullen There is no debate.

[@df5826]

Part of me is so glad to hear people in 2023 still arguing about whether Daewon or Rodney has the best tricks. Just for the record, even Daewon says in interviews that he "can't even mess with a lot of the stuff that Rodney does". I remember when Rodney vs Daewon came out when I was a teenager and having the same argument about who was better and it's just awesome to hear the old argument again in 2023. ;)

[@kilner79]

they need a carbon top sheet and the bottom layer this will hold it all together just having the layer on the bottom is increasing force into the top layers with the pressure its working against the concave with downward force and probably caused it to brake fast with a top carbon layer this will bring back the equal load transfer into all layers

[@Twisted_visions]

They used to make this they called it double impact or something I had one and it never broke but died due to severe razor tail

[@diplenski]

i have a double impact, it has the discs as well as the top layer with the carbon fiber. it's a few years old and it doesn't seem they make them anymore. i love it. it's strong and stiff and keeps pop forever, even now that i've mostly noseslid through the bottom ply. and i'm 6'3 225

This is literally my favorite board ever. I ride it everyday and have a spare in my garage.

[@TreyStylesPro]

Also a solid board no doubt. just a tad prices compared to Flight decks and VX´s, but maaan with a pair of mag light v2´s and a über light board then u straight out have the lightest board there is.

[@michaelmoore2721]

@@TreyStylesPro yeah, I’m old so price isn’t as much of a factor for me as time. It’s worth it to get the most out of the few years I have left. I tried a peralta flight deck but it was too short. Thanks for reminding me I need to give it away to someone at the skate park sometime.

[@TreyStylesPro]

@@michaelmoore2721 Too short? nahh u just bought the wrong sized deck thats all. the board still is among the best out there no matter how u put it tho

[@ftwtfml]

19:02 I have broken multiple flight decks and vx decks. Most just get super used up like razor tail corner cracks and pressure cracks. But they do break here and there after 3-5 weeks of daily skating rain or shine. I don’t think any board could stand up to me. lol I’m 200 lbs

How could anyone not agree Rodney is the best? I just wish there was more footage of certain tricks he did, unbelievable.

[@Hillbillybumcouple]

Because skating is art and art is subjective, best skater imo was Jay Adams in his time, and since his passing it is definitely Tom Penny that has inherited that throne

[@REMPLACEMENT-TV-2]

it"s not subjective since it's vrey easy to compare the skills , Rodney Mullen invented most of the flat tricks by himself which makes him better in term of creativity and technique than everyone @@Hillbillybumcouple

[@Hillbillybumcouple]

@@REMPLACEMENT-TV-2 creating something doesn't make you automatically better, and as I said, it is subjective because I think the best is someone else than you think, and that is the reason it is subjective because it is subject to change depending on the onlooker 🤣

[@mustafagak2852]

These things are actually amazing with the best concave options out there... insane POP too

[@Deetroiter]

This kind of reminds me of Lib Tech skateboards from back in the day. I had a first release deck, the one that was blank with their logo and had the carbon fiber on the tails. They tried to sell it as something indestructible, extra stiff, etc…it did get run over by a car a few days after I got it and it just flexed and then bounced up into the air. Not a single crack in it so I can’t complain!

[@milespettingill]

Rodney Mullen for sure! The person who invented the flat ground Ollie and kick flip, not a lot of people can beat that!

thanks for reminding me of the GOAT. he was favorite skater since thps3, his feature video was fire AF. also, have they ever skated a board that had trucks in the middle as well, for more rigidity? how well would that skate?

[@brailleskateboarding]

I think we have only done a board with trucks in the center, not in the center and the nose and tail..

[@AmericanChoirboy]

@@brailleskateboarding i think it would help it not break as easily, and perhaps setting them a bit higher would prevent them from interfering with the ride unless you pressed harder in the middle. also, you have more options for lip tricks!

Powell does the fiberglass layer on top, I wonder if that helps with snapping

To be fair, rodney is not exactly known for skating rails, so they probably wouldn't have been extensively tested for board/lipslides... in the early 2000's I had 4 or 5 of his early almost decks, I loved them all, and I still have one of them all these years later.
