I can't believe I saw a nollie frontside noseblunt nollie tre out on a ledge and it looked good. That's insane. Obviously it's really incredible mind blowing skating but he made a lot of over tech (in my opinion) no no combos look really visually pleasing.

I said "what the fuck" out loud at least 4 or 5 times during this part. Shane O'Neil is one of the greats of our time. I'm not even a huge fan personally, but I can't deny his skill. Objectively speaking, he is one of the most skilled/technical dudes out, and it's rare to see that type of skating done with such good style too. Dude is an animal. It's a bummer he got so used to Janoskis that he doesn't want to skate anything else, so now his pro shoe is just a Janoski ripoff. A dude that good deserves his own shoe, not a slightly altered version of another pros shoe.

For some reason, the switchflip backsmith switchflip really got me. Even though he did a bunch of way crazier shit. Also, HOW THE FUCK is it considered acceptable to cut off the top half of his body in 80 percent of those clips? I get that sometimes you'll shoot it differently, maybe sometimes you want it up close. But the vast majority of that video was just the lower half of his body.... I don't get this.

So, the shoe's just a Janoski? I've had a couple pairs and I don't get the hype behind them.

It was nice waking up to a Marnell clip, and it was a fun, quick part. Shane's grown on me through the last few years. Used to hate him but I can't deny his style now

The Lewis clip was incredible. Can't believe he's been gone for almost 7 years!

Shane is insane. The sw flip smith flip out was the crazy one for me. Always imagined it irl. In fact, half of these clips are all tricks that I imagined in my head but never saw it perfectly executed until now.

Anything he puts out is incredible. One of my favorite parts from him.

Does anyone remember his Welcome to Primitive part with the terrible song choice?

Spot on except I didn't say I have a problem with him. In fact, I don't.

Totally this. I still appreciate his skating for how smooth it is despite the difficulty. And I have to say, his trick selection never goes full circus or ledge dance despite covering some of that ground. If that makes any sense.

Shane has now almost reached Daewon's final level of 'sorcery'.

Jesus fucking christ my brain literally can't process what I just saw. Head just feels numb. Never had that with a video part before. Shane is miles ahead of everyone else technical wise.

Nollie flip crook nollie flip out casually in a line.

How fucking good at skating do you have to be to think of: mhmm I could turn this nollie flip crook into a switch 5-0 then fs flip out.

And then do it perfect.

I wish he would do more Tom Knox like long lines like that one with the switch back smith flip at the end, and the line in china with the nollie inward heel on the hip to start. Not as much a fan of outlandish singles on tiny little ledges a lot of it borders on just cause you can do it doesn't mean you should, but with that said, wow.

Have to say though when someone is so good switch it kinda looses the special level up factor of being switch. He can just skate both ways.

This may not be what you meant, but I just have no desire to watch this. Like, even though Suciu is amazing, there is still at least a veneer of relatability that exists with his stuff.

never really understood the reliability thing, most skateboarding is so hard to do as it is, even for the person doing the trick. it shouldn't keep you from enjoying what ur watching.

extremely gnarly but i thought a lot of his combos were kinda gross. not going to watch that a second time.

glad he gets paid handsomely by nike for all the effort he puts in to being so consistent. that shit aint easy even if its not my cup of tea.

I think it might just to come down to him having done so much stuff. This almost feels like a mix of some quick filming sessions for a few lines and checking off some of the harder tricks on his list.

just came here to ask if the general opinion of slap on shane has changed (before: zigram, boring, too bolts, etc.; now: goat, unmatched, needs to make a million bucks, etc.) but this comment already made my question obsolete

Oh don't use me as a barometer of Slap, i'm a bad boy rogue outlaw who doesn't give a hoot.  I have no idea what the consensus on Shane is, I just think he's boring as batshit across the board, regardless of obvious insane levels of skill.

switch kf bs smith kf... this part was fucked all around

We know it was switch. He was asking if anyone has even done it regular implying how insane it was that Shane did it switch.

I remember  Morgan Smith Venture ad a couple years ago in Thrasher where he does kickflip bs smith bs flip or bigspinflip out?

Tyler bledsoe coulda done something along those lines too...

Shane's great but I'm not sure what they're trying to sell here. Maybe they need a few more close-up shots of whatever they're trying to market.

So many older dudes don't want to put out parts now because they aren't as good as before. I don't have a problem with that but I don't understand if you are skating why you don't put stuff on the gram. Most people are hyped to see anything. It's not like the Slap forum. Gallant skates curbs now all the time and people think it's sick.

For some reason, the switchflip backsmith switchflip really got me. Even though he did a bunch of way crazier shit. Also, HOW THE FUCK is it considered acceptable to cut off the top half of his body in 80 percent of those clips? I get that sometimes you'll shoot it differently, maybe sometimes you want it up close. But the vast majority of that video was just the lower half of his body.... I don't get this.

they did it so they could hide the fact that they were using stunt doubles

it's pretty common in hollywood

Not sure if he is as good as he is because of talent or work ethic, probably both I guess.

He does seem like one of the few pros that take their job as a pro seriously though.

research on expertise shows that the more talented one is, the more time is put into the field of talent. if you compare musicians in a young age that are described as talented they invest multiple times more time in practicing than "untalented" people, probably because of intrinsic motivation and the feeling of flow

For how tech that was, I gotta say for that for a basic trick, Shane has such an amazing looking switch FS flip. The way they fold is super unique.

It is like Michael Jordan. The natural talent is unreal, but other people have something close to that level. Its the drive to be the best at your chosen field which pushes it to the next level. Some of the tricks in there are tricks I only thought I'd see in Skate. Like Nollie front-noseblunt tre-flip out, Switch big flip front blunt, bs big-spin-front-blunt-big flip out, etc. That shit was nuts.

It would be undeniably GOAT, if it wasn't mostly 4-incher kiddo ledges - a lot of baby scooped flip tricks to second long slides (sw bigflip blunt, bigspin blunt bigflip). I say the tricks, and of course they sound ridiculous, but the footage reminds me of someone skating the box out front their house where the ground is perfect and the ledge has angle iron.

They were mostly normal sized ledges...

Sure the ledge with the bigspin blunt bigflip wasn't big and he didn't slide far, but it was a BIGSPIN BLUNT BIGFLIP OUT.

wonder who picked the Dion song? surely not shane. Phil spector production will forever be the best
[close]

Yeah I was too distracted by the song choice to focus for a sec. That song is a buried gem. This was the Dion recovery album after a years long heroin fog that commercially flopped. Who knows, maybe the rights were cheap as a result. Couple other bangers on that album

absolutely, Only you know is my other fav and must be the primary single. Check the BTL video Baby Blue, Devin used it as well as many other great song choices

Shane is crazy. Some of the best tech clips while making it look effortless. That shoe sucks though. How many rip offs is Nike going to make of the same shoe they own? Shane makes plenty of money from contests, why punish Stefan with another competing shoe that looks exactly the same?

Probably because Shane O誰eil is doing switch flip front blunts down handrails and Stefan is making bronze sculptures. Nothing shines forever.

About half were normal sized ledges, the rest were the same rinkers he has skated since Nothing but the Truth
