This man is nearly 40. He seems to only be getting better with age.

[@michaelfranz685]

I agree

[@tomf4087]

He must look after himself. Plenty of physio, strengthening exercises, healthy diet. Sack the booze. I think most if not all older skaters at high level look after themselves. Even then, it's still nuts what he still does.

[@nickt204]

The Canadian Vampire

[@PauloRoque360]

It’s like C.Ronaldo 😂

[@gumeskate4live]

Age is a number.

[@rafaelng7485]

Nobody is gonna mention how supportive that barber shop is? So sick!

[@derfmode]

Ryan’s technique and execution at this stage in his career is what is next level

[@ShaunSilk-ew7cy]

Absolutely, that front kickflip is textbook.

[@jackrevell4504]

Decenzo is one of the greatest from the early 2000 generation. Pure skate rat. Beautiful FS flip mate!

[@MrShane008]

I've been driving past this spot for the last 15 years and always hoped someone would ollie or even kick flip it. Wow! Might have to stop and run up there to get a view from the top one day.

[@souldiarrhea]

props to the barbers for being so cool

[@helmutdschulnigg5798]

Ryan is a beast! He is killing it for so long! I am also 37 and totally blown away what he does at his age. The bail where he rolled both ankles and hit his head was brutal. He got back up and made it. Hats off!

[@sandhanitizer15]

Ha, you geezer. I'm only 35.

[@xxxthetruthxxx4765]

36 here... no fucking way i am even jumping down a 6 stair aymore these days... the knees man... the knees. ryan is a different animal.

[@rr-go3vp]

28 here, after some ankle injury skating. And yeap, i also feel "old" for this, but i'll try to come back to it, after +/- 2 years break. Cheers guys

[@bryann3389]

The way he did that Fs flip and rolled off the curb head down w the beanie gave me a lil glimpse of Tom Penny back in the late 90’s

[@dbc.ash.]

DBC..Daily Blessings Continue! ... Best Frontside Flip EVER! ... DAMN ,Ryan for sure NEED a 1st Place or Skater of the Year... He's Definitely my Fav. Skater.... Thank You ALL for Skateboarding and Everything Everyday!! .. Daily Blessings Coming!..DBC.

[@Labergemusic]

Just remember Ryan every time you hear some loser complain about "how it hurts" and "I can't do that anymore" BS as they get slightly older

[@pauliewalnuts5241]

Yall gotta bring back the OG Indy logo

[@legitskateclips]

crazy how he barely crouches on impact

[@ReesgAnimator]

Pause at 3:05 on that landing! Thought he was done, Decenzos a Beast!

[@eisaatana96]

No idea how he got away with that. Insane.

[@nickt204]

Ryan has been bucking it down big shit long enough to do it with his son, goals

[@nathanserna5162]

This spot is right next to my pad. Oceanside, Ca let’s go!

[@Lbundy]

Ryan’s been executing the bondo jobs through the years as well💪🏼 Thanks for always killing it for us all to witness!

[@VashStarwind]

What was destroyed exactly? You could argue the spot was better than before cause no one will trip on that little crack now.. @@TheDogGoesWoof69

[@Lbundy]

@@TheDogGoesWoof69 Ryan was just making sure no one trips over that crack

[@djfernieferns5310]

It’s definitely one of those spots that look chill in film but it’s super gnarly when you see it in real life 😎

[@robertcrystals]

dunno how chill it looks

[@christopherrefusal4843]

It’s pretty fucked on film too

[@sandhanitizer15]

That spot doesn't look the slightest bit chill lmao

[@rahansk8200]

At what point in your life do you say to yourself _I'm going to do fs flip on gap like that?

[@titancheat]

Ryan's a beast! Rip Kechaud.

[@sk8hillzz]

Ryan is one of my fav skaters of all time. always impresses

[@mylesaway2566]

What makes it even more gnar is the landing is on a decline, sure it's no Carlsbad, but flipping from flat with a gap that big to decline with his steez? Shits Fire! and pushing 40? My mans an inspiration! Keep sending it ryan!

[@MrElpajita]

Carlsbad is small compared to this.

[@c1dtl39]

@@MrElpajita for sure. But I think he’s referring to the uphill landing. It’s not as angled as Carlsbad’s

[@DarwinBoys1]

@@c1dtl39I’ve never noticed that Carlsbad had a slope landing to this day!

[@infinidominion]

@@DarwinBoys1 it was uphill slightly

[@c1dtl39]

@@DarwinBoys1 I’ll definitely admit that I couldn’t tell it had one either. Couldn’t even tell by watching those clips at the time. I only found it about it when watching interviews lol

[@roddiazt]

Still (some times) skating at 39 here and this is insane! Your body is so much weaker and fragile past 30...this guy is built different.

[@kevinkrutz924]

That spots in oceanside and it is absolute buck.. the homie that's gnarly only ollied it

[@jeffkent2104]

One of the best frontside flippers of all time.

[@NamasteBean]

So fucking underrated!

[@TechLurker]

thirty seven..

[@destructo3915]

You can't see your landing at the top of the stairs. You really have to have a trick on lockdown to do that and not clip.

[@sean78745]

These gaps are 10x scarier when coming out of narrow stairs. I used to skate narrow 8 and 10 stairs and your mind keeps thinking you're going to hit the side and go flying

[@JonasPolsky]

isn't this the same spot that Jamie ollied in 411 and did a snap roll away?

[@berrybestlifestyle9188]

Do you remember which issue of 411 it was in?

[@aslanbc]

Those FP insoles doing work on those impacts! Yikes

[@mattimaranda9638]

I've been hiding under a rock for some time... what happened to his brother Scott?? He was quite the ripper himself, had legit sponsors...then gone..

[@Thisisdarkdata]

I think I heard he hung up the skate hat and went a different route in life, something more mainstream

[@jasondashney]

Scott voluntarily hung it up professionaly. I ran into him last year and he said he's going to school and just doing his own thing. He doesn't want any skating attention at all. He's still really good though.

[@mattimaranda9638]

I always think "oh brother, where art thou???"

[@ryanrowe1975]

Tomorrow is my birthday

[@flying_rat]

Never stop doing this lol. Love getting the mag and then being able to see this. Wish all brands did this lol

[@joeywho534]

BRING BACK THE CROSS

[@treytv5495]

Ryan is a living legend, along with other well known skaters but man rhino sure is funny as hell, the man said they shooting for a tecate commercial 😂 5:14

[@ChrisHass-d2y]

This gap is sketch. Always wanted to Ollie it...❤

[@Claudio-y2x]

Ryan is totally next level,he's INSANE 🙀🤯💥

[@NittyGritty420]

Bring the cross back please.

[@halfpipehillbillies5591]

Also, make your trucks in the US again!!!

[@Slick801]

Don't forget to straighten that redbull beanie... I mean there's special powers in it, I'm convinced... 😅

[@jinju3785]

Ryan's like a wine the older it gets the better it becomes

[@miketempleman6144]

The catch and rotation on that was so nice. Can’t believe this guy

[@artemface]

The no music in this was so nice actually

[@idontcare4490]

I think we finally have a contender against Reynold FS flips. Unbelievable catch and turn action there.

[@derektyndall4552]

Most underrated ever

[@qwerere6611]

Not uderrated at all, everybody knows Decenzo is a beast.

[@YL702]

❤ RYAN HESENDSBRO IS AMAZING!!

[@robertgilfillan3221]

literally perfect, dude knows what he is doing

[@OldSchoolVibes1978]

Makes you appreciate just how sick Tom Penny's fs flipping and switch fs flipping everything in his path was nearly 30 years ago.

[@blankwavemessiah]

Super cool of those people in the shop

[@shogekimura]

Joslin where you at with the tre?

[@JonCrocker]

Unlocked by Jamie Thomas, 411vm #5 intro. I hear the music...

[@falcosk8]

that was a really good frontside flip!!

[@HookedOnFonik]

Benjamin Button on a skateboard

[@cxshxnly7197]

Anyone who lives in North County SD this spot is in Oceanside by Walmart Neighborhood market. FUCKING NUTS!!

[@SHREDI]

That’s was so perfect! 👏

[@Jimberley]

Damn. That was truly perfect.

[@Dfort_]

Steal cross was better and is better

[@gunchul]

This man is LeBron James of skateboarding in terms of longevity 🎉 Good work Decenzo

[@robertcrystals]

it's cool he took his son with him

[@wickedcityrips2409]

Bro found the fountain of youth

[@themanofNeil]

"All right this one." Then stomps it. Skateboarding is so fucking rad.

[@Unknown_Creature16]

Tecaté got a free Promo Lol

[@G.Freeman92]

Why did y’all change your logo? I don’t buy indies anymore cuz y’all are woke. Pandering to non skaters.

[@joejoe2658]

30 FPS BUTCHERY EVEN THE BERRICS WOULD BE PROUD OF

[@davidduitsman4916]

OSIDE!!! I've seen this gap through the years and wondered who was going to throw something down it! So Sick!

[@Alskie666]

Nothing better then a caught FS flip. Beautiful. And the shop owner being cool with it just makes it better. Wish more where like that.

[@KillumiGnarly]

Ryan Decenzo man. Best on the planet. Triple OG

[@benitosan1]

Decenzo & Reynolds best frontside flippers ever, so much style & gnar

[@WizardDoom]

Best FS Flips in the Game: Reynolds, Decenzo and Sandoval

[@pancakesafterdark3335]

Can we at least have the option to buy merch with the old logo, so you can see how many people actually want to rock that stuff before pulling a Dr. Seuss and just banning shit to virtue signal?

[@BeingBB9]

Tecate Commercial.

[@okbro1239]

Crazy hes still hucking like this at his age. Im in my early 30s and wont jump down anything greater than a 5 stair anymore

[@katzenklavier7070]

That shit was stomped

[@technocatdance]

can we get a youtube montage of big boy frontside flips by decenzo and reynolds!! can call it stomp city haha

[@migzz7976]

Fun vid, feeling pretty good about skating these days, glad we can all agree it was never a crime, even grandpa is doing it now.

[@technodrome]

Makes me proud to ride Indys. Fuk yeah Ryan, thanks for your late career hammers.

[@20BLUNTSgotmefuckedup]

forst

[@johnvader4584]

The Muska Front Side flip is the best it’s so stylish and smooth, this guy is doing it like ugly and gross.

[@9svm]

thank you ryan

[@themanthelegend7048]

The iron cross is on the us army marksman badge. Why did independent gay company remove it?

[@darklight4815]

lets present some flowers on that ollie too bro...gnarly

[@johnvader4584]

That’s cool but he’s busted out like old-fashioned gross front side flip.

[@JoHnAnDjAnEdOe81]

40 is the new 16 when it comes to slams on your body. Take it like a champ!

[@MurkZilla6]

Oside spot. Fooked!

[@VashStarwind]

That was pretty gnar, but idk if it was... next level ha. That was like 7 feet tall.

[@mike_salinas]

Powerfull aniquilation reminds me Kasper's spot

Bro is on some Lebron shit with his ability to perform at this age

[@aventador7774]

The gap look so scary. You couldnt see the landing area. RD are legend!

no começo da sls eu achava o rolê do Decenzo paia, alguns anos depois evoluiu de forma assustadora e comecei a curtir seu skate

[@typerightseesight]

regular footed frontside flips look so doable goofy ones look like torture lol..

Ryan Decenzo takes human growth hormone, change my mind

[@fugyamofug]

that was super steezy

Wow absolutely amazing im 53 and couldnt imagine even trying that when i was 33 the legend

Smh crazy 37 still able to jump like that is gnarly
