Most hyped and longest I’ve ever waited for a trick to still be hyped on it years later when the footage actually came out after the vans ad.
-
The Dude who did that 407 bridge gap, I would never even be able to walk that narrow downward angled ledge to get to it in the first place
Rowley or who ever you guys named would probably shit their paints, dare devil parkour shit.

was it clint walker who done that 5050 on the curved building?
that one kid who noseblunt yanked off the rail into that bank
that other one kid who noseblunt yanked i think off some weird inset lip thing on a building into a bank
that one other kid who did the heelflip into that skinny fucking bank (creature vid i think)
rowleys container gap and some 5050 on a bridge
al partanens blunt on that water slide shit
milton martinez in general

Skating hills isn’t scary. You either ride or die. But it’s all do able. No matter your level of talent.

youve clearly havent bombed a big enough hill. surviving a speed wobble mid-hill is one of the scariest & funnest things I have ever experienced

lol what, that's like saying falling out of a burning tower block window isn't scary because it requires no skill

Just looked it up, personally I'm easily scared of heights so I indeed found the clip pretty fucking scary:

koki loiazas subway ollie (third rail bop)
Then you would have to also include M.N.M.F.T.B. who did it first.

Tons of people have done that 407 gap. Youtubers ffs. Rowley would laugh at that shit, get a grip.
Let's give Clive's oil silo cover a mention. Easily could have died.

Joey Brezinski
Yeah manuals are no joke. You might fall back and break your wrist and get pointed and laughed at.
-

Any photo / footage? I had never seen the spot before or at least I couldn't recognize it. Did a lazy Google search of the name and of course this popped up. (and about Rowley yeah, quite obviously)

Westgate

Clint Walker for sure. The bs 5050 drop in from we are blood, the nollie heel in the intro of his ambig part, the bs lip on that rail that Heath tried, his kickflip into the bank at the end of that supra edit, and his 5-0 kicklip on that overpass @ 1:10.

Is there a tasteful way something can be scary rather than exclusively the sheer size/height of a handrail? Then it just becomes a thread about who skates biggest shit..
Pablo Ramirez forever for sure. I’ll also throw in Nick Boserio for his cutty-buck™ approach he’s been running for awhile now.
M.N.M.F.T.B is legendary.

i'd say the spot selection and the approach to it is a definite factor. if we think of say el toro or any other iconic spot, it's for sure still impressive as fuck seeing anything else go down it but at the same time you can also list off all the other things that have been done down it and for the most part anyone jumping down that shit is probably well acquainted with doing that on a regular basis and knows how to fall/roll out of shit to avoid injury. now if you take say jeremy wrays water tower ollie, just out in the fuckin sticks and he decides to ollie it. first try, never been done again and it probably wont be, same with clive dixons boardslide - those become more memorable due to a combination of the fact they've never been done before and the obvious death factor if you fuck it. arguably the same with alot of GX footage, always seems very unplanned spur of the moment sporadic and the way it's filmed kinda feels like you're there on the session with them. number of variables that could also go wrong there ie traffic pedestrians stones cracks etc but when they ride out of that shit through the wobbles at mach 10 you're in disbelief.

One of the scariest spots I've seen and actually backed out from skating was the top of an 'innocent' water tower in Pula, Croatia which I believe is abandoned. Basically a several stories high, giant ass metal container that's all decrepit with probably decades old rust, just the spiral staircase to get up there is sketchy as fuck, then once you make it up there, the spot is the top of the water tower itself because it's so rusty and deformed by the heat it's got bumps and waves everywhere, but it's also decrepit metal and feels thin and weak as fuck (it deforms under one's weight in parts). I think Marko Zubak skates it in Solsticij. Looks super fun but the ground is pretty much a rusty platform that's super old and could give out under the weight of a skateboard anytime, let alone the impact of landing a trick; even the locals are uncertain about it and aware that every skate there is getting closer and closer to playing with death. Gives a whole new meaning to the little chinese nollie Marko does. I went up there to check it out years ago but never dared to set foot on my skateboard on that shit.

spots like that really start pushing the whole scare factor from looking cool and being an interesting watch to something way more dangerous. there was that clip recently where some guy did a hurricane on a bank to ledge with the freight train passing and maybe it was just the angle of it but that shit looked mere inches from him and it rubbed me the wrong way. one slight minor fuck up on the trick, timing etc and that would've been not only his life fucked but the train driver too. thenagain i suppose you could argue that about the GX crew which kind of invalidates my point but ehh.

I like Nik Stain but running for half a block to get speed for a manual on a sidewalk doesnt exactly compare to the rest of the stuff in this thread.

wow you actually think this

Pablo

Pablo
Iwas gona make a joke about swan maybe having the scariest fits, but I realised he is just a budget watered down hybrid of Dylan and boulala but with none of the charisma that made those dudes rad.
Scariest fits probably go to Stephen LAwyer or that dude with the belly shirts.
Pablo is to pedestrian to even be mentioned in this thread

I'm guessing he means Pablo Ramirez.
-
The answer is obviously Andy Anderson.
-
The question is who DOES the scariest tricks, in a present tense, not who has done the scariest tricks.
And the answer is Milton Martinez.
-
milton
-
Present tense = Pedro D & Clint Walker, they both have an eye for tricks that are visually scary as well as difficult
Lol at all the GX comments, that pushing down a hill meme needs to end
Boulala, Dollin & Rowley obviously in the 2000s
-

When I watched Dollin's 9 Club episode, I was actually surprised to hear that not one of his tricks in Sight Unseen or the Baker videos was done without having a few beers first. Obviously, he's a complete alcoholic, but I figured that maybe he skated without drinking at least once....

2 trips to NYC and I didn’t fight him either time... not from lack of trying though

Westgate, when u think of all the east coast cheese grater bullshit he mobs u really gotta consider he could be getting burnt on almost any trick he tries. First thing that came to mind was the drop in on that driveway ledge in SF for the Peace video. (i know thats not east coast but it was still gnarly as fuck.
-
I get just as scared watching Milton setting up a trick as i do watching kids learn how to roll down a bank.
Skating is scary :-\
