TK explained it really well, genuine emotions and he's so animated.

[@JonnyBetz]

[@TimothyOwen]

I love the animated emotional reactions in skateboarding. There is a real love for the sport and the people we share it with.

I like how TK ends up sharing a past experience about somebody else, he’s always humbly over stoked and really into it seemingly more than the concerned person he’s speaking of It’s a shame there isn’t much TK footy out cause the dude has a nice personality and you can see that he genuinely loves skateboarding

[@ratinthecat2]

always wanted to see the history and attempts this trick. arto is a legend. bomb back lip, bomb vid, ty thrasher. more My War's please.

[@martinmiller5524]

Muchas gracias for the series, Thrasher Mag. So good to see skateboarding is advancing in ways. May I request that you produce a clean version for the ears of children? thanks

[@ExsolvingLabs]

dont be a fucking pussy this is skateboarding there are vulgar words everywhere in this community

[@notch7751]

Arto is a legend. I love these My War segments. Awesome

[@louiealouie]

ARTO! One of my favorite skaters of all time

[@bak1386]

God damn arto is one of my all time favorites. He's an absolute legend. He is so smooth and makes everything he lands look basic and easy. All of his parts are GOLD

[@miguelzamorano6509]

Im here in the comments jus checking to see if anybody would say something about Alex Midler doing a kickflip back lip down the middle rail

[@drewkellymusic5486]

Who's here after seeing Midler kickflip back lip it

[@fgDAB]

Eleanor Loughry - Wait he really did that??

[@drewkellymusic5486]

gonzalez yea it's all over Instagram

[@502jackal]

funny part was, i just wanted to watch a my war because i remembered arto was in one. didn't even remember it was a back lip lol. but damn, fast forward to now and its pretty wild to think about

[@idontwantone132]

The middle rail too

[@Pir44tti]

Me! The best thing was that Arto was there to support the guy :D

[@nicksteeley3742]

In my opinion my favorite backlip I've ever witnessed on KZbin

[@christophersantiago6011]

Here after seeing Middler kickflip back lip through this thing with Arto cheering him on. The torch was passed.

[@FredZepplin]

My war of my first kickflip

[@dankprofessor4925]

stfu ur nt funy

[@carterman4689]

I know that feeling bro

[@vperkv6554]

My first kickflip took me 3 months ( almost the entire summer of 1994) standing still on a side walk crack stationary n kick down. But when i landed it the first time, it was all over after tht. I had tht aht down n progressed into a real kickflip fairly quickly.

[@aricgoss]

This one time, I almost ollied, but then I quit before I could really master it

[@ricoisthegoat4342]

Nick777 I hope so

[@davidmorefield2]

This is the best segment you guys have produced!

[@df3kt]

Having TK tell this story makes it great!

[@seanpotts5252]

Crazy to come back to this after midler not only kickflip back lipped it, but did it on the middle rail! So gnarly

[@didyouseethatunicorn]

i smiled this whole video, one of my favorite tricks ever done

[@martinmane5523]

I met Arto Saari back in 2006 when Flip was doing a tour. Such a nice down to earth dude!

[@mauricioborgonio3582]

Such an inspiration this dude I've so much respect for Arto's skating he is deff one of my fav skaters of all times!!!

[@DeterminedGoat]

I think Arto ushered in a new era in skateboarding. I remember when he kickflip back tailed the tall ledge at the world championship contest in Munster in 98 and thinking it was the biggest thing I had ever seen, and then he went on to do things like this.

[@MacChuck]

Gnarly! Kennedy explained it so good.

[@AijhiadRs]

Definitely the best series y'all have done, keep them coming!

[@jeremyweiss206]

[@balthorpayne]

It's crazy, I didn't really care for his Mindfield part, but I read this videos description before the video loaded and instantly knew the spot and trick. Amazing that Skateboarding can really burn some dope moments into memory.

[@awesomekidhero1963]

Saw Arto's part in minefield at my friend's house. Immediately drove to our local shop bought it. To me Kirchart's and Arto's segments were amazing!

[@clivemathieu9386]

One of my favourite tricks of all time

[@nsjs932]

I love Terry's passion in these videos

[@christmasham4312]

Arto was the best in his day

[@clever-username]

My War is the best segment on this channel.

[@vperkv6554]

Terry is 1000% right, it looks soo much better how he lands it n rolls off with the FRONT wheels starting to come up. Gives it EXTRA STYLE. Gives it That TRUE GRIT

[@derekpalacios7362]

Dam that's So Insane!! So hype to go skate right now.

[@jamesonfairrington3474]

The fact milder kickflip bsckliped this is insane

[@dannymccolligan8219]

Terry is great. Can we please give it up for arto though?! This man is a living legend.

[@GlenDoug]

Amazing trick… sad to know Terry won’t be around to do anything like this again

[@Oxpat00]

Arto is a G!! This series is so good anyway!

[@PortraitWure]

Best series

[@centralcoastcinema7693]

I wish you well and hope you find courage to fight your own battles. We all make mistakes. Forgive yourself first TK. Keep growing in the big house. Be waiting outside for you.

[@nvsoliveira]

Arto is the best skater ever, period. And TK seens to be such a nice dude.

[@GoHardMang]

Thank you for making this series!!

[@hbiclan]

geoff rowley such a gentleman

[@bigpacotaco]

This is great love em both lol arto was my favorite growing up

[@lucastocks7396]

Please make more 'my wars' I love them, keep it up

[@Jamsdh1]

That was one of the best skateboarding tricks I have ever seen done.

[@andulicious6129]

the fact that arto and Tk was skating together is so dope. Arto is lowkey so good, most slept on skater.

[@2highforthisshihh843]

lmao you probably barely started skating cause Arto has been out for a while and everyone knew and had his lightweight shoes thos etnies with the two pine trees on the tounge good ol times that was like 10 years ago FUCK 😔😊

[@BigRamifications]

Y'all notice the rail on the PoV replay @1:12 has all the THOU SHALT NOT SKATE nuggets of metal welded to it? Must have been filmed some time apart.

[@seths.4531]

these are awesome. Love to see a Gonz one

[@IamLotion]

No way. Terry kennedy was at my local park two weeks ago. I didn't know he was a big skater. He said that it was his job he just introduced himself as terry. Thats crazy that I just saw him on a thrasher video 😂 such a nice guy tho

[@drumboarder1]

He.. What? He's a legend, he was on the jackass TV show when Knoxville tried to 50 the Hollywood 16

[@DonNoDraper]

I wish arto put out new footage still my fav sk8r of all time.

[@greens294]

Not ignoring the legendary back-lip, but yo that 180 heel by TK was CLEAN!!

Everything in this video is awesome.

My God. That is 100% insane and balls out. Incredible. A blind kink rail? I just don't have the words......

[@icecreaMonster01]

More of these series 👍👍👍💯💯💯

[@falcosk8]

One of the all time best skaters!

[@brandonpaavola5634]

I love how Terry talks because Arto is finnish and speaking alot isn't common for Finns and speaking highly of yourself (even though he did something Amazing) is taboo in the finnish community. Similar to how Kimi Riakonnen will win a F1 championship and reporters ask how it feels and he will say "Good"

[@BELOVVZER0]

More my war plz!!!!!

[@TheFatalShroom]

[@ashleybrown4754]

It's 2023 and this is still gnar boots

[@doctorclaw1827]

Arto is the reason i want to learn backlips..

[@rickyfever]

Did they install knobs on the rail after this?

[@Osiris3657]

That was so sick. It's also really sad to see that Arto's concussed himself so much that he doesn't skate much anymore. He probably cruises and does chill mini ramp stuff, but nothing like this anymore. He's only 34.

[@andulicious6129]

so stylish. he's so underrated, glad he was soty one year.

[@matthewso689]

Gnarly but I'm confused I saw the knobs on the rail , the school or somthing put those in after arto did the back lip to keep skaters away?

[@BroadLyte]

Terrys front heel was so effortless haha he’s like “I just front heeled over it” but damn it was butter

[@mathewharmer478]

The back side lip slide is allawys a beautiful trick I think Chris Miller back in the Vert days

[@Amber-n5q]

this means alot to me. i'm struggling with acid dropping off an 8 inch ledge with no push, i did it so many times one day, just trying to get comfortable, the next day for the last 3 days i can't build the courage to ride off. its so frustrating. but i know somehow i'll do it

[@c.c.s.1102]

Thrasher should do a My War on The Boss' full cab down the Wilshire 15.

I was also there this day. Coincidentally of course. It seriously took him no more than 10 tries. I just remember being in awe sitting next to AVE. He might have been in more awe than me, great day.

[@MrNickrandi]

LegitBeat16 yeah, sure, a pity that TK in this video says Arto was "trying it for hours".......

[@isaacbartonskate]

Nick Benza maybe the attempts were spaced out? or maybe this guys lying who knows

[@supernewuser]

Nick Benza it takes such a large amount of energy and a strong mental game to even do one of those attempts. The dude could be lying but I would totally believe somebody trying once and then taking half an hour to recoup. Maybe at the beginning once he got psyched he was doing one after the other but probably he needed a breath each time to avoid getting destroyed.

[@LegitBeat16]

Both of these guys are right. They were very spaced out, which I thought was a little odd but to each their own.

[@ufotofu9]

Back Lip on a flat rail is the best I could do. Backside Lipslide are SCARY man. It's one thing to boardslide backwards, it's a whole nother thing only , get your back wheel over the rail and then slide backwards. Arto does it on a kinked rail!
