That was pretty sick. I was a bit late to appreciating Kevin Rodrigues skating and now I'm a fan. I hope he puts out a full length part at some point.

los ojos sin caras


and why oh why did he not complete that wallie into grass at Bercy ?! Did he really never have a full part btw?

edit: now that I think of it, completing that wallie into the street would be quasi-suicidal.....

pretty sure edouard depaz already did it in his rave part skip to 1:10 same spot right?

you're totally right! I thought that thing grass thing went straight into concrete and not into more grass. It's also less slanted than the upper part, I see that now....dang I haven't been to Bercy in ages....5, 10 years?

edit: damn that Depaz part is rad. Almost made me forgive the moustache and wife beaters.....

Not trynna hate but i don't understand how this guy's so popular since he does the most illegal hand grabs. To each their own.

i still dont get it either but i have a slight appreciation for it. i do really like the gap to rounded curb grinds he's been doing recently. thats some out of the box/big brain shit right there

He's had full parts.

He's probably best know for his ender in the first polar video. Granted it's a bit of a shared part but that's how the entire polar video is filmed people skating together but it's really mostly footage of just him. The after the credits second part of just him is my favorite stuff.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0hZEH7rYbg

He also had a part in blessed

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShB1CfiEhow

and another in purple

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BScRqdZnr8&t=1s

*My favorite footage of him is his short part in FA/Hockey's Dancing On Thin Ice. He has the first part it starts around 50 seconds in - less of the early grab wallride stuff

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebX27CcHyVc&t=50s

Here's a part from when he was way younger for the shop Nozbone. He skates to the same Captian Beefheart song that Spanky skates to Stay Gold. This part came out before Spanky's stay gold part. He also does a back 360 down a triple set. Not the biggest triple set of all time but it's really impressive.

This is a short little converse solo clip he had for a colorway

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhQn9-LAydM

Basically I like his footage and I'm a fan, but I understand him not being everyone's cup of tea. There's a lot of one off clips in montages (in "oh yes" and "faces") or instagram that are really awesome to me that aren't early grab stuff that I'd love to see more of in part. Just thought I'd post stuff in case you hadn't seen some of his footage. Again, his dancing on thin ice stuff is a little more in that direction, because there's some really incredible clips of him that just pop up sometime and surprise you.

Respect, that nozbone video brings me back

I had a Sugar skatemag poster of him on my wall around 2008, a pivot fakie on a jersey barrier

Even though it's short, I like it. As krod fan, I've long ago accepted that I will only get footage of him in bite sized clips.

A couple shout outs for this valueless comment:
1. Shout out to the running gag of having a single Tom O'Reilly clip, with a title card, in all of kevin's hockey footage
2. Shout out to Billy Idol for teaching me how to say "eyes without a face" in french.

I love the running Tom O’Reilly title with a smith grind
