Gou Miyagi's "TIMESCAN 2" Part

[@timescan]

Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments! This really means so much to Gou and I. - Rob Taro

[@go1988]

His video from 10 years agois what sparked my interest in skateboarding videos. I am in awe with his creativity, balance, and sense of freedom he transpires. Thank you so much!

Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again the third day. I'm trusting in nothing but the blood of Jesus to pay for my sins to keep me out of hell. For undeniable proof through archaeological evidence, Bible Expedition is the best channel. The god of this world is the devil and controls all politics and religion especially the Catholic Church as counterfeit Christianity. I pray for the Heroin team and anyone who sees this, in Jesus name Amen. After I am saved, my works and my deeds will determine how well I will spend eternity in heaven at the judgment seat for saved people.

[@jaypeters7810]

Really enjoyed it!

KEEP ON KILLIN IT PLAYAS🫡🔥

[@Brainwentpop]

When Mark Gonzales says “Have fun, be creative, that’s what skateboarding is all about!” I can’t help but think of Gou and Rob, it’s all about taking your eye for sound skateboarding spots and looking a little deeper. Everything about balance is presence.

[@baronsonics]

Most refreshing skateboarding I've ever seen. I feel so calm right now

[@dylanherron3963]

Came here to say the same thing. Almost, a whimsical view into childhood in a way. Dude is skating items not meant whatsoever for skating in mind, right on the playground, surrounded by mulch with no pavement in sight. Using imagination to make the surrounding obstacles his to play with, like we used to as kids. Refreshing. Timeless, despite the style being so esoteric.

[@708Drojo]

Love the opening b-roll shots of locations he has done legendary moves at in his past video parts, made me feel super nostalgic. Gou is the best!!

[@kitbaker9134]

Yeah surprised I haven’t seen that before. Really clever editing

[@kalebhaynes977]

Mans put all his points towards balance 😂 unique style

[@spacetimeworm]

Yeah, he wouldn't be a very good skateboard or without the balance..

I skated with Gou when I was stationed in Okinawa, I didn’t know who he was, but now I do… I always spoke of this wild Okinawa skater… blessings and Respect.

[@VintageSk8]

The 50-50 in the park with the wind blowing was crazy, this dude has some insane balance!

[@sushiquad]

the music and editing fit the skating so well. what a masterpiece!!!

[@bluy6]

Fishmans is goated

You can never go wrong with Fishmans and Skateboard

So much personality in his skating. What a pleasure to watch. Thanks for the upload!

[@coupleodevs]

i agree, it was like eye candy such unique style

[@aaronlobato5268]

SOTY 2023. F whoever won unless it's this guy.

[@frankm496]

Incredible concentration, technique, and originality. Gou is a true legend and it's great to see him back. Rob Taro did amazing filming and editing. His latest video "Timescan 2" is a must see. Loved it! Thank you, Thrasher Mag, for posting.

[@DavidShumsky-q4b]

I rewatched a friend's short film which was nominated for an academy award this morning. Watching this, I think you should submit to festivals. This is high art. It is beautiful, futuristic yet nostalgic and is evocative of emotion. It felt like a love letter to skateboarding and all that is in its DNA; passion, creativity, individuality and a pure expression of humanity. Please don't ever stop doing what you're doing. The world needs more of this.

[@baymtl]

This part actually made my eyes tear up. Absolutely beautiful. Captures the pure wonder and love of skateboarding. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world.

[@ojhemmiez]

What a way to end the year 2023! A Gou Miyagi Part! Blessed!

[@earl-ty-kccgaines5113]

He looks like he's having fun. 😂 When you're inner child takes over creativity. This was great to watch.

[@Lincolnlogsoff]

The SOTY scramble almost made forget why I was here.... hi Gou... your uniqueness can't be bought or won, it's just there

[@CockLobster]

😑

[@Tzalmavet]

Love that you can see how and why Gou has such a unique style. Being determined to work with what spots you have available. Gou teaches us that even the most hopeless looking spots can produce something great.

[@electricforkshobbes4823]

Cant express enough how much I enjoyed this. Thank you so much to Rob for cheering him on and thank you so much to Gou for producing such a great part! My only complaint is that I can’t see him skate for hours, truly somebody who skates for themselves. Bravo

[@pillarofdawn]

While the majority of skating is going in a bigger, higher, longer trajectory (which I still love). Miyagi San is going in the complete opposite direction and seeing how creative he can be. Its like watching an abstract painting, except with skateboarding.

[@tylerk7577]

If anyone ever asks you how skateboarding is an art form or an expression of self, just show them this video. Gou is the man

[@skate]

such a creative way of skating. the rail balance is insane!

[@sozneb]

This clip took a fraction of my depression away. ありがとう Mr. Miyagi 🙏🏽

Hope you feel better!!

This triggers every emotion good and bad. I love it.

bad too?? i’m serene asf out here after that

What's good Kulla

[@beyondtheicewallofthemind710]

The board didn't even flip once during the whole part. This fact alone triggers some pent up undone psychological-traumas I have about "fitting in" and conforming to the "status quo." This video part does not live up to traditional "core skating" rules. It being posted on the infamous "Thrahser channel" means it should conform to the rules of skateboarding. Thrasher is supposed to be the biggest media source for skateboarding (besides the Freeskatemag and Jenkem and GH and maybe the nine club). Thrasher should uphold their reputation for being the most authentic and valid site for skateboarding content. They are breaking rules right now and it's breaking my mind. I expect the sport of skateboarding to conform to at least _some_ rules such as not sliding down a rail on your butt, while you have a skateboard in hand. This is anti-skateboarding to me, because the board is being held rather ridden (rode?). Why not do the trick without the board? Nonetheless, the video part helped to expand my awareness of self. I realise what I have been resentful to inwardly because of it triggering me to look within. I always wanted to "fit in" as a child, in *fear* of being reprimanded by my mother or my teachers at school. I fucking hate school man. I wish for all children on earth to be homeschooled. I want to find the truth, not fit in.

[@danmacfarlane3444]

One of the most creative skateboarders ever. Loved it. Can’t believe it has been 10 years since his Heroin part in “Video Nasty”. Legend.

[@502jackal]

damn, has it really been that long?

[@KasranFox]

the skateboarding world needs so much more of this. tech is cool, gnarly is cool, but i just want to live in gou's world of pure fun

[@mikew5th]

totally!

[@Tommyandersonskateboard]

🙏🛹❤️

[@laggy3099]

It's always so disheartening to see people try to gatekeep skateboarding, so I'm always fully behind guys who go all in against the grain like this

[@enjoi62137]

You ever see any of Richie Jackson's clips? Him and Gou are super similar in that they are also about being different and creative and doing stuff that nobody else is doing

[@tc8702]

So unique. It's amazing how he can express so much of himself through his skating. Even his sense of humor! glad I whatched this

[@thegoldenagetvshow]

I don't have words for this. It's a poem. Art. It's interpretive 🛹 dancing. Another triumph for Gou Miyagi

[@adamredfield3225]

A true masterpiece. Thank you Gou! I've been a fan for 10+ years

[@TeddCookerly]

This made me so damn happy! Thank you, Gou!

[@nicholasdiemer]

So you wait until SOTY is announced, then release this masterpiece

[@yayinhard]

such a legend he is, just having fun doing it

[@Justwalks]

Gou is a bloody wizard. Absolute legend!

I skated with this guy in 1996-1997 Sunabe sports land Okinawa.

[@gomugomunokienzan]

Love this so much, especially the long rail filmed from the slide. Fishmans music suits this perfectly too.

[@supernewuser]

skating the rail like a mini was kind of mind blowing.. if he ever learns to ollie he'll be unstoppable

[@okisktr7898]

He used to actually Ollie onto handrails,’until he got super creative and did his own thing.

[@supernewuser]

@@okisktr7898 yeah I know, I really respect and enjoy his skating but it’s funny to me

[@MereCashmere]

GOD THIS WAS SO SICK. I watched all of the clips on insta of the pond rail and couldnt wait to see the final product and it was so worth the wait. Thank you all for this.

[@KissaKolme]

Woooow a new Gou Miyagi part?!?!? His parts are the best parts, truly progressing skateboarding as a fun artform!

[@DrightJKayorent]

Absolutely amazing play on the concepts of skating, completely reimagining where the board can go, how tricks start and end, what can be skated. I had no idea what would happen the whole time.

[@Kallum]

Gou Miyagi is an instant click. Like 0 hesitation must watch

Blew me away! So skilled, stylish and creative. You have my gratitude.

So chill, I love it. This guy would vibe really well with Jason Park

Jason park got all his inspirations from him lol

So sick! Love the creativity of this man!! His skating reminds me of some of the ingenuity of Jason Park crossed with Andy Anderson. All some legends ❤

I wanna see this man do a field sobriety test holy shit

[@robadzso]

Valid point (damn autocorrect...)

[@justindtackett]

Highly appropriate for thrasher to display and promote this type of creativity in skateboarding. It what makes skateboarding always socially relevant.

[@KyleMulleady]

Beautiful skateboarding. Hard to live up to the Miyagi name but he sure has done it ❤

[@AliCoxMusic]

On a stressful day, this truly calmed me. Thanks, Gou!

I thought he would never give us another part. We have been blessed!

makes me very proud to be Japanese. Japan's poor and difficult conditions of street skating made skaters really competitive in park skating and very unique style like his. If you don't know "OSaka daggers" , go check them, too.
