Ask Puleo if you want numbers.

Wow, I remember this ad but probably didn't pay it much mind. However people feel about Rodney, this is a pretty impressive list (switch tres in 1990...what?!), and I wonder if it's even complete. He was doing all that primo stuff going back to the Bones Brigade Video Show, and looked like he'd been doing it for awhile at that point. None of that seems to be mentioned here, so I'm guessing somebody else was doing it first or else it was accidentally omitted. Also surprised that he wasn't the first to do varial flips, at least according to this list.

Skateboarding owes this guy a lot!
He might be the most respected skateboarder ever, after all he is the creator of all those tricks people have been doing in the streets in the last decades.

right?! try to think of the last time you saw a part without a godzilla rail flip
-
he didn't invent tricks, he invented skateboarding don't @ me.
-
There is an intense, in-depth youtube video breaking down all of the insane tricks that Rodney and Daewon did in there video series, I don't have time to look it up, but someone should be able to, the number of obvious NBDs is off the charts...
-

But don’t ask Koston
-
How did he do the kickflip and the halfcab flip but not the fakie flip? I think he probably did a lot more than that list since it finishes in 92
-
rodney is obviously a maddog and i have lots of love for him, but isn't it insane that he thought up all those tricks, did them, but never himself considered how much cooler rolling into them would be. the [largely] stationary approach to freestyle was/is bizarre. you invent kickflips on the spot, you're on a device that rolls and you don't think about rolling along and just popping one while you move...
[i know he wasn't literally at a stand still all the time]

One of the biggest scams in the entertainment industry is making a documentary about some event (i.e. Woodstock), or some album... and basically rewriting history through convincing interviews and documentary footage. It creates interest in potential fans (to buy the product) that may not have been there the first time around. Also provides convenient way to claim facts on something that may not be 100% confirmed.

The greatest trick Rodney ever pulled was convincing the world that his role as a capitalist did not exist

The primo stuff is called 'primo' and not 'rodney' for a reason. Just google Primo Desiderio.

This brings up what counts as inventing a trick. If someone made up kickflip and someone else tailslide does the first person to do a kickflip tailslide count as inventing a trick? Seems like no. But then you get things like Howard grind, barely grind, hurricane etc

i am on the quest to land/do/invent some diffrent tricks that includes foot on the ground,hand on the board and pretty much berrics rules inverted ,and send it to the berrics and tell them to start doing that tricks also or they will just not progress,and will brainwash everybody to do (traditionale tricks) ...
-
Tony Hawk didn't invent the 900, Danny Way was very close in 1989 or 1990 as were several other people later, we all know Tas Pappas got "robbed" of the 900. (Lol)
So Tony didn't invent them but it would be weird to credit D Way for the 900.
I could write here now I am going to try an ollie 900 and claim I invented it
On the other hand I am pretty sure Primo Desiderio never tried or even imagined kickflip primo slides over manny pads (and all the later variations). I think Rodney even did 360 flip Primo slide?
So Rodney was the first to think of Primo slides over an obstacle. He didn't know if it was possible. Landed the first one and later variations. So I think it's safe to say he invented the (flip to) Primo slide (over obstacles).
-
With all the flip in variations of the Casper slide, Dark slide and Primo slide its a very long list to add up.
-
Did he know about Nollies or Fakie's
-
Rodney could have invented 200 tricks, but getting him to claim ownership of anything is like trying to catch an eel in a swimming pool of lube.
-

Don't forget all the picnic table stuff, crooked grind finger flip out, nose manual nollie flip gap to nose manual.
Or those cab impossibles on banks... If you count all variations you will probably have 2000 tricks or more.
-
It would be interesting to see just a list of the tricks rodney invented that other people actually do. Of course there are tricks he invented which only he does, but his legacy is really the tricks that will live on without him.
This is the gist. 99% of all freestyle is considered kook or illegal, but 99% of all officially sanctioned tricks are freestyle derived, and 99% of those Rodney developed during a pretty short period. +\- 98%

Also nollie impossible

Never really understood this take. As amazing and innovative as he was, had he never existed skateboarding would probably be in the exact same place it is now.

If you play the footage all at seperate parts it's some quite technical clip stacking

Not as many as Todd Falcon.

Anyone ever try the the monkey flip? In the globe opinion video he does a bunch of them, it’s like a crail grab early grab, then yank the thing into like a 360 flip…I can’t tell you how much fucking time I wasted trying to do that and boards I razor tailed. I was under the impression at the time it couldn’t be hard. It’s fucking impossible.

all you had to do was look at the comment thread of any skate post on reddit outside of r/skateboarding and you would have found the answer
