In 1989 a friend and I drove an hour to see a Rodney Mullen freestyle demo in some random parking lot in San Marcus, TX. Toward the end of the demo, Rodney asked if there were any tricks that the crowd wanted to see. My buddy and I yelled out "Ollie Rocket Air," and in one try Rodney landed one. And by ollie rocket air, I mean he did an ollie, grabbed his nose with both hands, put both toes on his tail, and then somehow got the board back under his feet and landed on the bolts. I know that freestyle != street skating, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone else land one.

[@rogerelzenga4465]

Waaah that is insane! i only seen rodney mullen from VHS video's ive collected in the late 90's (im european btw) i was sooo freaking mindblown and made me want to skateboard like that! But talentless me struggled HARD but loved every second of it, the payoff was so great when you did land one of those tricks! Best one for me personally was a fakie Casper 540 on a bank! made all my friends soo fuckin proud! and others might say, thats easy! and sure it is for others but as i stated; im not talented.

When you get good at doing kick flips in the back yard holding onto the fence with two hands, move to doing them with one hand....then move to no hands, then once good at that move out on to concrete....then go on to doing them while moving. I learned all my tricks this way, got really super good ( no where near pro, but extremely happy with my skating abilities)... One 9f my favorite tricks was to do a kick flip to disaster slide ( or back side rail slide, I use to be regular footed, or skate with my right foot forward)....

Slosh was huddled-up on the cold cement the whole freakin’ time- never gave up. I rolled away with the trick,, and he got the flu! Jonny, know how HONORED I am by the way you go after these and how you speak about it all... And know that in 28 years, what you did just now will still be in you; that feeling never leaves us. Cool we get to share that, at this level- we all do, at every level. What a gift skating is...

[@onthewattle]

Hey Rodney. That’s a decent podcast on the Cultural Revolution. Are you interested in revolutionary history as a whole? I spend a lot of time studying Ireland’s struggles from Wolfe Tone to the Easter Rising to the Troubles. Also the Anarchist history of Spain and the Spanish Civil War. Fascinating stuff.

I had a whole new appreciation of the sport. I’m so happy to have stumbled across this video, I could actually feel this man’s frustration. It actually make me want to pick up a skateboard again and land that switch flip back tail that I gave up on 10 years ago….but after enough sprained/broken ankles that is no longer possible. So that being said to all those talented young guys out there…. the window is short so keep on pushing and land that trick. You will regret not landing it when you get older.
