Rodney was my hero as a kid, never thought anyone could pull his moves yet here you are my dude. Keep killin it!

[@michaileksteen8142]

Mine too Rodney was and will still be a skating legend but so is Johnny

[@chicityza7155]

Watch Carlos lastra, new ear Rodney Mullen

[@xfilesmegamanten1334]

Have you ever heard of killian martin ?

[@StarkEnt86]

5yrs skating in my younger days and my one regret is never learning to get out of the darkslide. Mullen was always my fave. Def my biggest influence in terms of style, it was all about creative thinking and making anything, anywhere, skate-able. Legend.

[@robertmccall5517]

Yeah dude. It takes decades for somebody to recreate some of Rodney's best tricks.

[@Dee-nonamnamrson8718]

So sick. No one recreates Rot Knee's magic like my boy Giger. Jokes aside, one of my fav skaters recreating the magic of my fav skater.

[@nicklobzun]

ROT KNEE

[@Sam-ql4um]

rot knee lmao

[@ch3ckmatepg3d87]

Lmao rot knee 😂

[@fmpentertainmentmedley3338]

I bet Rods knees are rotting by now lololol

[@Dee-nonamnamrson8718]

@@fmpentertainmentmedley3338 You would think so, but the dude is in his 50s, and still kills it on the rare occasion they put a camera on him.

[@Aiyaa771]

The man Giger is a literal living legend. So relaxed and creative :))

[@broadleareeba1969]

i agree. he is a living legend.

[@magrot123]

How is he creative? He's literally doing someone else's trick lol.

[@herrreinsch]

*I love the fact that you tried to clean it up after landing it almost perfectly, and even succeeded with it.* because normally It's like this: you land it almost perfectly, then you loose the trick, and then you land it again after 1-3 weeks..... or years.:P

[@karl4551]

Legend

[@dereksexton7916]

Your so talented

[@NewSocialNetwork]

Ist hier einer der Herreinsch heißt? xD Mach ma mehr videos!

[@isaiahskates6587]

Me:*angry if I land premo trying to learn tres* Johnny:*lands tre premo* “yeeeeessssss”

[@heycah4319]

U would’ve landed everything faster if u had baggy pants js

[@JonnyGiger]

true this is

[@pasi8800]

Weißt du was ich an dir so mag, Jonny? Du bist nicht nur einer der talentiertesten Skater die ich kenne, sondern auch ein unheimlich sympathischer Typ!

[@henryschulte2456]

das ist doch schön dann schreib es nächstesmal wenn du ihn das sagst auf englisch damit er das auch versteht du knecht

[@ultragukuss1325]

Henry Schulte knecht? johnny spricht schweizerdeutsch.. fyi!

[@laertedesouza1469]

1:32 Okay ... That suspicious graffiti over there in the corner really screwed up what he was doing 🤣

[@dustinrichardson3045]

I’m never not impressed by the amount of dedication and patience that’s required to pull these tricks off. Very cool to watch the progression.

[@joshchunn9722]

The tricks at the beginning are amazing! He’s such a unique and talented skater! Honestly such a big idol 🙌

[@groovefretboard]

Rodney’s was a bit harder as he had to tre flip up curb height and he caught the flip out. I’m still impressed you even got a close version of Rodney’s bravo 🙌🏼🛹

[@EreaserNL]

Yeah, it's insane how crazy good Rodney was

[@groovefretboard]

Ereaser Yah it’s crazy how he not only invented the primo slide and he’s still the best at it based on vid parts. Johnny and Alexander Rademaker are 2nd and 3rd with a few new variations but Rodney’s still look best including a switch primo which Johnny should try. I can’t imagine trying it switch

[@Babbages]

yeah that's where rodneys competition flat ground skating comes in handy he's done all that so many times over and over to perfect it for competition so when he started actual street skating he was ahead of everyone on knowing the perfect spots to land or set himself up on the board so than his imagination just had to come into effect and almost anything he could think of could come true because he was skilled enough and had the mindset to do it then he would practice that to perfection .

[@the_koschi]

The session at the beginning was awesome! I dont know how it is called, but this kind of Casper spin at 1:40 was always one of my favourite Mullen tricks.

[@benji104]

You did a fantastic job transferring your own joy and excitement to your viewers!

[@anotheryoutubevictim4638]

One of the sickest tricks ever and for you it was easy like butter Jonny, you are at the top level of expertise in this sport, yet pushing up the roof.

[@_Maxten]

If rodney mullen is like michael jordan then johnny giger would be kobe bryant.

[@milliefreg]

I hope giger doesn't die soon

[@Tyrannosaurus_STFU_III]

Nailed it

[@timobrien6499]

Finally got my first Johnny giger in the mail the day before yesterday and it is the best board I’ve gotten in forever. Perfect dimensions. Pop is perfect. Flips amazing. Just love it. Plus the 3 headed dog graphic in blue with the red background is a beauty. About to go order another one already because I kinda chipped the nose trying to kickflip a big gap and accidentally kicked it out into a nose dive 🤦🏽‍♂️ hate when that happens 😑 anyway, just wanted to let you know how much I loved the board! Keep up with the great content. L8

[@naRevolution]

That was awesome, always loved Mullen, his style has always been unmatched. Hope he see's this.

[@ecoli023]

how the hell do we get rodney and jonny in same video? i want to see them both have a session and vibe!!!

[@slippys2]

I love Jonny Giger so much! He is a true legend and super humble! I am so addicted to all his videos! I love him so much!!! :)

[@michaelhancock9636]

Man skaters these day don't know how good they have it with instant access to trick tips and video instruction. We had to wait a month for thrasher's trick tips photo sequence then had to figure it out on our own.

[@billyfairbank]

A couple casual NBDs followed by a trick only ever done by the GOAT. Just another day in the Alps. Go on Jonny! What a legend.

[@robertyoung655]

YES ROUND THREE WAS THE BEST EVER, STILL GETS ME SO HYPE TO SKATE!!!! I used to have Shecklers round3 deck lol

[@RogerSullivanNOLA]

I love that you show all the hard work it takes to master this stuff instead of just showing the final product, which is usually what we see from skating videos.

[@Chabon209]

My favorite thing about this series is you show us this stuff is possible. So many of Rodneys tricks have only been done by him. Makes them seem impossible until you come along with some perseverance

[@18spd4Life]

I grew up watching watching Rodney and his jaw dropping bag of tricks, it’s crazy to think just how far ahead of his time he actually was. I’m almost 40 now and my jaw still drops seeing this and it’s guys like you and Mullen that make me keep a skate in my shop I’ll pull out every now and then 🤘🏻

[@rileythornton2000]

This is like watching somebody make a billiards shot off two rails. Landing one trick is hard enough, but to land with your feet already in position for the next trick...wow. That's expert control. Loved seeing the progress too, makes the land that much more sweet.

[@GarageUmpire]

no one: giger: i will wax the manny pad

[@eye_want_to_believe]

Hi johnny, Thanks for uploading a video on my birthday. As someone who has never skateboarded a day in my life, and really only got into skating through THPS, your videos are incredibly fascinating and fun. I love your overall positivity and fun, and showing yourself putting in the hard work to land these complex tricks shows everyone that nothing comes without practice and patience. But with those things, you can achieve anything. Keep doing what you're doing, you are a great role model and inspiration. Peace and love from Australia

[@wtfRyantater]

Man that beginning part all that shit so fluid. Beautiful example of skill, and perfect with the music

[@ce_eff]

Insane trick, and also that session on the bank was so satisfying to watch!

[@markodrnic7853]

2:14 Late flip primo to fakie...That's so sick!

[@TK-gm5zd]

I love the enthusiasm and energy you bring to the sport. It's obvious that you take the sole act of teaching itself seriously as well. 11/10 channel

[@j897xce]

So grateful to see the progression of the legendary tricks established by the godfather and others. Your channel is nothing less than an honor to the greats.

[@pedjatubes]

Man, you deserve to meet the goat, Mullen. Bravo great tricks!

[@franckbouvier3789]

You are not human!!!! Who in the world can late flip primo 🤷‍♂️ ... to me you are the best skater dont give up hero!

[@steakovercake3986]

Man I could watch giger videos all day

[@ReignitedAuto]

Absolutely stomped that one! 🙌🙌🙌

[@ericstrobl6561]

Wow he’s getting a lot better and im already riding that deck. Its NICE

[@josefloridaflatsfishing2478]

Your truly one of the best . So sick and so humble. Thanks for all the vids.

[@stanislasgilet1756]

Man youre a legend for me for Real i love the good vibe you give and i love see you try and try no mater what youre perseverence and everithing about you. Big love from 1of youre french neighbour

[@CT-mn7vu]

I like your homemade music covers from an earlier trick replication of Mullens, would love to hear more man!

[@parkerfoote5692]

I have been waiting for this one!!

[@dj9ball]

Thanks for breaking these crazy tricks down into something we can digest, and try to learn on our own!! You really inspire me to keep pushing my skating limits!!

[@DJcyberslash]

This is the dedication that allows you to do anything

[@ANDRESSANCHEZHAIR]

Great job as always! 👏👏👏👏

[@TidusfromZanarkand]

9:20 I wish I could just 'accidentally treflip manny' like you XD Also that heelflip cancel to rail was phenomenal!!

[@robertcampos9998]

if he has never dressed up as mario ever, i'll be disappointed

[@jamesrosales89]

so much respect to giger and mullen ! i wish i saw more of giger’s skate comps

[@ChariotFighter]

Consistently landing tre flips and them being “misses” is classic ✨Jonny Giger✨Lol the world doesn’t deserve him. 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@bvh4517]

Your talent is beyond and with this you prove how much a king Rodney was. Big respect!!!

[@TumoFiji]

Incredible! You are a man with quite the trick repertoire and this, this right here is top tier performance. Cheers!

[@mikeFolco]

Love these mountains so much! What a view.

[@pawelop]

BUT I LOVE YOU AND ALL YOUR WORK YOU ARE PRO SKATER FROM SWITZERLAND AND I'M GLAD 4 THIS

[@mrzoom214]

1:52 Om that pic at righ rofl

[@muttonvindaloobeast8160]

This trick (railslide) is easier to land if you variable kickflip out. It takes more practice to land with your back foot (or front) on the nose/tail but its definitely easier to get a clean flip out with a varial flip for me. Good luck and congrats on yet another trick nailed 👏

[@JasonLuther1]

Sick man, I love the dedication skateboarders have to land one trick. I miss skating everyday

[@MrVert83]

You decompose those complex tricks and re-create bit by bit like a scientist! Hypnotyzing! I can see one difference between you and Mullen doing primo varations. He generally bends his knees significantly more than you when he lands primo (and every other trick). It's hard to see because of his baggy pants:) Maybe it's gonna help you to be even more successful in sending this crazy stuff!

[@ryancuda45]

that was sickso disco flip good job thanks for sharing

[@xxlatincrazy1]

Best series on KZbin

[@thezetes]

I forgot to like the video, so I went back and put that thumbs up!

[@spun8389]

You’re the man Johnny sick skating

[@righty-o3585]

Mullen was pulling tricks 20 years ago thta still to this day nobody else can do. For the tricks that people have been able to do, it has taken them a very long time to barely be able to do it. Mullen is one wit his board

[@catinaraysrelaxingcorner7020]

Totally Rad videos!! Awesome tricks!!

[@akuababez]

You are literally a living legend giger

[@fabriciobarraza5317]

Well done, Jonny! Encouraring video. Remarks the importance of keep trying! Thanks!

[@drewt1717]

Brilliantly done, Jonny! You keep getting better all the time! Thanks for the great videos!

[@412fish]

That was super clean 👌

[@justinpianin8932]

Always such beautiful backgrounds, oh and jonny is a pretty good freesytle skater as well ;-D

[@eldertmohr1366]

It must be an amazing feeling to watch those two vids next to each other and know that you and Rodney freaking Mullen are the only two people who have landed this trick. (And of course the others you did). Congrats man!

[@_maik_]

Hi Johnny! Next challenge could be from Plan B:Questionable at 1:00 where Rodney did a kind of Impossible Late Flip (or something like that)

[@DannyDHidalgo]

Every trick was sic in this edit!!

[@mtnvalley9298]

Thanks Jonny.

[@swoop8047]

Late flip to primo like it's nothing. 😂😂

[@cabxlt7762]

Your one of the craziest skaters ever and by far one of my favorite skater to keep up the great work bro

[@westsideskaters1936]

jonny you are pro!

[@blakeboyd05]

dang those mountains in the background always look so dope

[@Viniciussilva-wt7js]

I'VE REALIZE YOUR INTENTION, TO DO TRICKS AS RODNEY DO BUT NOT BE COMPARADE WITH HIM, BUT ,BUT IN THE MIND WHO SEE YOURS VIDEOS THEY WILL PROBABLY IMAGINE YOU ARE VERY SIMILAR HIM, IT IS A NICE INTENTION GUY , I AM A RODNEY'S FAN AND I SEEING YOU BEING TOO. THANKS MAN, NICE TO ME TEE YOU

[@mrjohnnyk]

You make the best videos, always appreciated!

[@meng6281]

the tre flip primo slide is badass

[@albchu]

Your hard work and commitment are an inspiration. Nice work, man.

[@Bmxbandit261]

Rodney Mullen was prob the reason why most kids in the late 80s-90s picked up a skateboard and since then there has prob only been a handful of skaters that even come close to his level. But i swear if theres anyone that could take the title of being the Rodney Mullen of this generation its Jonny Giger!!!

[@Dubsyman]

Congrats! Well done!

[@charlydevops5189]

Rodney mullen's imposoble tricks, good job jonny Giger this video is amazing 👍

[@OllyRobertss]

Almost Round Three was the first skate video I watched, very influential to me and waaaaay ahead of it's time.

[@rroollfallen]

The fact that even considering cleaning it up and then do it perfect, its insane 🤯 Amazing content Jonny! The disco flip primo and cancel heel primo revert were insane!!!!

[@casualonemmo-player2167]

Tbh the board wasnt going horizontal when he flipped it at the end.. he more or less pushed the board and its nose slammed the ground, helping it flip.. in a non gracious way ;) (... if im gonna be veeery picky...) :)

[@rroollfallen]

I mean, Rodney was able to pressure heelflipped faster but the boards were smaller then so although Jonnys bounced off, its still acceptable 😉

[@natel-l5078]

what a legend, such a sick trick bro well done

[@alexanderbertallo1995]

Sweet! Much love from Switzerland

[@heybro6302]

very clean work my brotha

[@aitormenta2066]

very impressive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@quincyseis813]

Dude that’s dope. Congratulations on that must feel great I know what you mean about that primo slide feeling 💯

[@benoz11]

Had to watch 3:16 in slo motion just to figure out what the hell it even was. Looks so good!

[@benoz11]

Actually what even is it? Looks like a no comply tre flip late flip, but the tre is so vertical it nearly looks like an impossible. Oh and a 180 body varial in there too!

[@rokseka]

I hit that like button just in first 3mins.. epic nice clean tricks. Rest is even more dope. tnx

[@spcmttrs]

You have such a huge bag of tricks, it's truly mind-blowing.

[@marveangel2235]

hope he does a best of clip again in a while

[@ramenman534]

Such a beautiful park

[@Lost_01]

Legendaryyyyy

[@3Canibus]

Bro mind officially blown! I remember seeing that back in the day as a boy and just going bananas. Serious props and Stay Awesome Brudda

[@JohnLeopold]

That warmup sesh was unreal lmao

[@polishenglish8356]

Such a crazy trick! Congrats, Jonny! :)

[@surpriseshoveit3514]

2:04 Surprise 😳 super cool

[@loganappenfeller113]

Love this series of videos. Jonny is awesome. Also, I wish I had access to a skatepark with a pristine mountain landscape around it lol.
