The fact that his competitors used to film 🎥 him so that they could watch and re-watch him do tricks and slow it down so that they could learn it is in itself an amazing achievement 👏

Skateboarding would never have evolved past ballerina spins and handstands without Rodney. He is literally the link between the two eras. I was 12 in socal when this plan b video came out. Street skating was my life. Damn what a time to be alive. If I could relive the 90s……..

Rodney is a savant! Given the fact people are still trying to learn things he created 30 years ago and more is testament to the monumental foundation he created for modern skateboarding. Not only his physical control and balance, cognition of his feet, the orientation of the board is phenomenal! Then add his generation beyond imagination he is untouchable for sometime to come. Incredible!!!

It really is incredible, seeing him do all these crazy late flip variants that people are still struggling to do today and still blow peoples' minds today, and he was already doing this 30 years ago and thinking up all kinds of wild variants!

I think it would take another very special savant type of person to push "low to the gorund" skating (not JUST flat but mostly lol) beyond what he did back then! I know there are people doing cool things these days, but a lot of it is other people just finally learning to do the things he already did back then.

I'm still doing the Magic flip from before he invented the flat ground Ollie! After that, every trick or flip he did using The Flat Ground Ollie 1st was invented by him. Music gets me every time

I got to see him skate when I was 13 backstreet boards in Valparaiso, him and Jason Lee. It was a real treat, and I got to skate with them in the demo. They like the best skaters of the town skate with them one of the best days of my life.

Rodney’s the only person in any sport that was 4 decades ahead of his time. It’s still insane to watch the stuff he created over 30 years ago.

Only 40 years ahead because he invented everything in order to be ahead. Like he could be forever ahead because if he doesn't invent most tricks how long does it take a bunch of other people to invent them? Things might never even happen because there isn't one guy from another planet who comes along and goes look at all this shit you guys can do with this thing. Now look at all of the shit that only I can do but at least I'm showing you what might be possible. The dude isn't even real I don't think
