The same fundamentals apply to everything in life. In his case it just happens to be in the path of skating.

Rodney Mullen is the Shakespeare of skateboarding. He is poetry in motion. It is so refreshing to behold a master at his craft and to hear him put into words his love for the art form. Thank you brother Rodney for representing us skateboarders so eloquently. Your style and unique contribution can never be duplicated. It is so grounding when I step on a skateboard. We have been doing it so long it is part of our core being. And for that brief bit of time, we are truly free.

I met Rodney a few years ago after a talk that he gave. I got his autograph and thanked him for being such a huge part of my life growing up with the Brigade. He was genuinely appreciative and we had a short but incredible conversation.

Rodney, I dont know if you will read this man..... but Brother your individual contribution to the world, to all of mankind MOST DEFINITELY has meaning, much of which may not even be known of right now..... your very existence and all of the hard work you put in to your joy and passion will spill over into future generations to come for a very long time I suspect. Love you Brother!!!

I really do hope I find something in this world that gives me a feeling as deep as Rodney’s for skateboarding, man it’s almost like second hand goosebumps just hearing him explain the beauty and craft of what he loves and just the all around beauty of having a passion at all that makes you finally find your worth.

Right on! When I'd watched it, I was hoping someone had picked this part out and I couldn't find it, so I put it up here. Glad you could revisit it! He's super cool indeed.

The simple fact that such a genius has dedicated himself to skateboarding is such a gift for us. When I listen to Rodney, it reminds me of Robin Cousin for ice skating. They have such a unique view of their art.

I got out of skating when I was about 17. This was before KZitem. In the early 2000's the only thing I could find on Rodney was a few clips from the Tony Hawk games, and a handful of 90 second Quicktime videos that took an hour to load. Seeing him now in these interviews, I never new anything about his quirkiness. To me he does seem a bit eccentric.... and I love it! I'm sure it's been said millions of times before, but he is like the Mozart of skateboarding.

That must be wild to hear him describe his life after watching him for so long! He's a real interesting guy, huh? It's worth checking out the Bones Brigade documentary to hear how the other skaters talk about him too haha. There's a full version of it on KZitem: kzitem.info/news/bejne/1Guhp2ltgquidH4&pp=ygUNYm9uZXMgYnJpZ2FkZQ%3D%3D

@@MarlainaSmith REALLY interesting. Kinda glad to know he wasn't one of the bad-boy rebellious types. Wish I could have seen this as a kid. I had so much trouble trying to force myself to fit in to friend groups growing up. Boo hoo lol. But I'll definitely check out that doc. You're pretty btw. Thanks again!

People don’t realize all the pioneers of this sport . There some that do but a lot have no clue the actual true history. The younger generations probably think it goes much further back in time. In actuality it only goes back 70 years which is only one generation. Rodney Mullin is a superstar and innovator in this sport we all love called skateboarding. I don’t think there will ever be someone of his caliber to ever come along. At least to the degree of game changing!

to be the best you have to be a tab bit crazy. Look at Bobby Ficher. Some folks say Nickola Tesla was bat shit crazy. Yet he invented so many things that its mind blowing. AND what MORE mind blowing is Not many people know of his inventions. Same for Mullen... Rodney created 3 variations to tricks before he named the 1st one....

While I understand that the history tends to call or characterize these individuals "crazy", it is very important to start changing that into what it is. Most of these individuals aren't "crazy" but instead neuroatypicals, as in people whose brains simply work differently, making them different than the "average" person. "Crazy" is a negative and misinformed label, though the use of it mostly comes from lack of understanding. Neuroatypical however correctly recognizes a person's features without labeling. It isn't craziness or insanity that causes these individuals to just stumble across something remarkable that in certain cases change history, but being gifted/having features that allow them to focus, think and work differently than the "average" person. These individuals often have the ability to think outside of the box and commit to doing it in that way sometimes resulting in discovery. Different isn't the same as crazy.
