@martin gonzalez bro for some people that shit really gets to them I got some homies who are getting into skating and one of them had his own little 6-7 month battle w the kickflip bro that shit will really bug at people sometimes; I guess to be totally honest it's just some things really click different for everyone

[@jasonlongo6823]

I didn't start skateboarding til I was 22. when you work 45 hours + a week on top of social life and relationships and playing music, progression is very slow and you can seriously battle basic tricks, I've no shame in saying it took me about 3 years to get kickflips and that REALLY got in my head. (No other trick has troubled me like that). Anyway I was more thinking skating gaps or grinds can be real battles even if it's not that big. It's all relative. If it's hard for you it can be a battle.

[@putnamehereholdmadoodle]

[@thejman3489]

@martin gonzalez Sometimes it's a one day or multiple day battle. When I was learning BS Heel Flips I remember one day I really wanted to land it.

One of the biggest things skateboarding instilled in me since the time I first got a Walmart deck for Christmas is ‘99 was persistence. This is the video I show non-skaters when I speak about why I love skateboarding and the lessons it has taught me. We’re hard-headed as fuck. We will attempt the same shit relentlessly until we complete it. Two of the best things I ever encountered in life that I am forever enamored by are reading (READING IS FUNDAMENTAL…pick up a book based on something you enjoy and you’ll never stop reading/growing/learning) and skateboarding. Don’t know where I would be without developing a lifelong love for either of those things.

[@IIMIKEYMOII]

As time goes on, I miss how impactful a feature length video felt a decade or two ago, whereas today, we can get a million little clips online. That said, one flaw of the feature length video is how quickly some of these major moments go by. This clip of Baca is just ONE clip among many in Baker 4. I think they did a good job of showing how many times he tried this in Baker 4, but some other videos don't give you that human element of how much it takes to accomplish some of these tricks that you see in a video. When you watch 60 minutes of one trick after the next, there is a lot of missing context and story that goes into all of these attempts before it. That's why I like "My War" because it brings these accomplishments down to a personal level that any Average Joe can somewhat relate to. I kinda wish more feature length videos try to add these personal stories into the video itself. I personally find it really compelling to watch.

[@mesohunt704]

It’s literally the best feeling in the world. You try a trick literally countless times just to land it one time. When you finally get it and you’re rolling away and hear all your friends yelling it’s a pretty amazing moment. I’ve been skating for 22 years now. I am 30 now and started when I was around 8. We always filmed and made videos for our local skate shop that are on KZbin so I have filmed a few video parts. Other then working skating was literally the only thing I did as much as I possibly could up until a couple years ago. I got into storm/tornado chasing and got hooked bad. It’s exactly how skating was my whole life. I still skate but I’m getting older and my body isn’t as forgiving as it once was. I guess you could say I have a really addictive personality because I get hooked on stuff so hard. I mean I’m 30 years old and in my entire life I have only had 2 hobbies. They have taken me all over the country and world and led me to meet some amazing people so no complaints here.

Sammy baca is a dangerous man with the never quit attitude....I like your style

[@kevinchills]

ive never seen a crew with such joyful grins on their faces after a landing. this is some touching shit.

[@greendude0420]

Imagine trying to walk up these stairs when Sammy comes your way.

[@defface777]

I love how determined skaters are

[@luisurena9955]

The fact that he’s Raiders fan just shows the fight in this guy. Good shit brother.

[@Shambles27]

I always watch a my war video when I need some motivation. This one and the Dane Burman one are my favorites.

[@gustisupreme]

He is such an inspiration to skateboarding. Never give up. Never leave the spot undefeated

[@xaaavieeer.g]

I cried tbh, baker is for sure the most real genuine raw skateboard company ever, legends.

[@jacobobesser]

To imagine in medieval times he would have been that knight who lived through at least 5 wars.

[@aabbccddeeffgghhiijjkkllmm4357]

This has more character development than some Netflix series.

[@isaiahcoca1255]

The amount of dedication in this man is unbelievable incredible it’s amazing

[@Twuntt]

I have so much respect and admiration for this guy, such a rad skater, and an even better father.

[@nostromer]

"gotta stay healthy for the little homies" >repeatedly attempts extremely dangerous physical trick without a helmet for 27 weeks

[@nathanmcchristie3997]

he should try mental tricks instead. much safer

[@angryhobo212]

Yeah, I have a lot of respect for this guy, he seems like a good dude and he's obviously a badass, but... That part at the end where he's like "I had to get the trick because I'm trying to get diapers for my kids" and I just think that's total nonsense. He already had a clip of him nosesliding it, they could have easily used that in the video. It's not like he gets paid more if he lands the shuv-it out. In fact I'm pretty sure he actually ended up losing money because of all the bus tickets, but I'm not sure if he paid for them himself or his sponsors did. Anyway, I understand that he felt like he needed to land the trick, but I think it's ridiculous to act like he had to land the shuv-it for his kids or something.

[@nostromer]

@@angryhobo212 Agreed, not saying its also not impressive, but for that kind of time, a shove-it ain't worth it, doesn't make the trick *that* much cooler tbh

[@ashxc]

angryhobo212 then there would be no war... i think thrasher flashes the cash for this.

[@MichaelPhillips-jw4bj]

​@@nostromer Obviously it does make the trick that much cooler. The difference in skill required was 27 trips in year+ of attempts. He was nosesliding all day. This was his part ender his biggest trick all the people talk about and produced this video. You have to realize he's in video with loads of guys who go ALL out on their enders. A noseslide isn't enough even the editors felt it. Big tricks raises his community love, which raises his deck sales . Then people wanna buy your shoes,your bearings,trucks, etc so you get big sponsors. Then you get a cut of that. That's how being a pro skater works. The more banger tricks you do the more the community likes you, The more money you make. You also get huge likability from these video's. Which also massively helps raise his community stock.. 700 000 people seeing his determination,his skill, etc

"I'm surviving dawg, tryin to get diapers"
