ehh. rowley's a legend etc etc, but much the same from him. felt like that was an ode to his propellar part or something. the ditch/bank footage is just tired. enjoyed the few street tricks he had. pedro & ronnie had some hairball shit, look's like ronnie is 100 percent after that broken knee cap.
-
I really want to dog on Pedro for Red Bull and airpods, but holy back noseblunt.
Beyond that, I'm looking forward to revisting this once every six months when it pops up into my YouTube feed.
-
rowley is old and that was awesome, props to anyone over 35 skating hubbas
ronnie went in and song was perfect
needed a team montage tho
lovell makes a good flick
-
All three of them killed it but Ronnies second to last trick got me fucked up.
-
Rowley crushed it are you kidding? Dude is over 40 and literally still risks his life for skating. I don’t even give a shit about ditch skating but you’re tripping if you can’t get behind him.
Chameleons track was ace.
Also dope that Ben has a guest trick. Pretty sure Nike wouldn’t let someone wearing Vans in one of their videos regardless of circumstances so props to Vans.

Agree 100% with this. There’s no way any of us are taking slams like that in our 40s.
-
just noticed they photo shopped the sign off the fence for the cover shot but its in the footage
-
Rowley's body must hurt. Freakin Maniac
-
Infinite respect to Rowley for what he’s done and for still pushing himself but I agree that I’m bored of seeing him noseblunt ditches. A few great tricks in there though. The popshuv over the wall and the impossible fifty stood out to me.
Pedro is a maniac but he doesn’t really do it for me.
Ronnie has great style and keeps tranny skating interesting. His part was amazing.

This.
Imagine not backing Rowley of all people, jesus. There aren't many parts out now better than his part in Sorry. In 2002. Dude rules.

"ehh. rowley's a legend etc etc"
not a lot of respect for one of the heaviest dudes of all time. Also, he's old and still putting it down. Sit on your "ehh's" and "etc etc."

What's he supposed to do to give respect, build a mock shrine to Rowley in his post or something?
-
Damn Ronnie came back from injury Ronnie 2.0. Really liked his part. Some skating that’s breathtaking and stylish at the same time.
-
What was up with the editing in Rowley's part? Showing him attempt two completely different tricks to the ones he landed. Thought that was very odd.
-

Good eye. Either he ended up putting the sign there so he could actually do it (and this is a previous attempt), or they photoshopped it out to make it look like he did it on raw fence. Either way I'd say that's taking it a bit too far.
I feel like they were going for a Sorry vibe with the music for Rowley, but the skating didn't really have the same energy.

I don't think he deserves it, to be honest.
I saw Rowley at a grocery store in Los Angeles awhile back. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
Sick vid, but yeah he's a weirdo.
-
Bless Ronnie and his yellow shirt collection for carrying on Andy Mac's legacy. I'm wearing one now too.
-
Wasn't Elijah supposed to have a full part in this years Vans project (which appears to be this) to coincide with his shoe coming out this year (which dropped earlier this year). I guess he has been too injured to stack the footage required. Hopefully, he has something else on the way.

Yeah looks like the injury made him realize how temporary skating is. Gotta get some while you can. Loved his section. Best feet of any transition skater.

I felt the same thing. I love Rowley and have lots of respect for him putting out parts like this, but the music wasn't matched well with the skating.

All the pasta needed was some sauce. And you just added a great big hearty dollop of Ragu.

Loved rowley’s footage in this!
-
Rowley is the greatest skateboarder of all time. The only person that comes close to him is Andrew Reynolds.
-
Considering all the dudes Rowley used to skate with have pretty much stopped/slowed down it's still cool to see him getting his and slamming. I enjoyed this video, three gnarly dudes. Pedro is fucked, Ronnie is classic and Rowley is forever.
...but there was one noseblunt too many Geoff, even though they look good. Haha
-
Rowley looks sick. Is he okay?

that's because that same grocery bagging friend told me Koston was planning on coming over for dinner and last time my mom attempted to serve pasta with just light sauce, Koston kicked over the dining room table, jumped on the heirloom chandelier, and exclaimed "FUCK YOUR FACE!" my family has been of light sauce and on hearty Ragu ever since

2nd part in a row Rowley drops where the gnarliest trick is a slam, respect for that and for the Ben cameo, he is mised ❤

Uh? Koston, Carroll, Daewon?

Man yall are trippin. I never cared about Rowley skating, but this part was insane. Dude is old and put out some gnarly shit. Slap now is a bunch of 20's guys trying to be cool.

What the fuck is wrong with Slap. If you ride a skateboard and never cared for Rowleys skating focus your shit now.
-
I'm not in my 20's, Am well aware that his sorry part is one of the best of all time, Doesn't mean I have to enjoy him milking it and doing the most low impact repetitive ditch tricks.
-
The Good - Rowley really going for it and getting some street tricks. Pedro doing ridiculous video game shit. Ronnie killing it harder than ever after such a brutal injury that would make most quit skating altogether.
The Bad - Countless noseslides in ditches, followed by two parts filmed almost entirely in skateparks. For some reason I thought it was going to be Pedro Delfino in this, and I was pretty disappointed when I realized my mistake.
The Ugly - Ronnie’s song was one of the lamest covers I’ve ever heard, and it was still the best song in the video. You can dedicate a video to Jake (RIP) without using the shitty music he was into.
-
Rowley is still so sick. Loved him skating to gray matter.
-
The tricks he does he looks really good doing them still.
-
ronnie sandoval with some of that oververt stuff was just un fucking believable. front blunt 270 on oski's wall had the most satisfying popout. that guy is good
pedro's nosepick on the portrero fence was deadly

People hating on Rowley are out of their minds, that was great.

When you get to a certain age, low impact is your only option. I was excited to see the part and it seems like he's doing his best and beyond.
Is Jeremy Klein to blame? It seems like he had entire sections made up of ditch skating. I always enjoyed them as well.
-

There is no excuse for him not to be dropping hammers at 40+ when pretty much everyone else is.
-
Ronnie's stuff was incredible.
My only grip with the Rowley stuff, just for the sake of efficiency, is I could have done without all the bails. I watch most this shit at work and I got things to do I gont need to watch him sliding down banks for five minutes.

I'm assuming this is sarcasm, but if not then you must tell me which parts to watch. I love seeing old guys kill it.
I mean street parts, though.

I've been put off by Rowleys hunting bullshit but I can't deny how gnarly his part was. Anyone hating on the level of skating probably couldn't roll down some of those ditches in their prime let alone take a slam like that past 40

Ronnie skates like someone with great health insurance

So not one person mentioned that monster backside flip he does up that giant wall that he also skated in propeller? Or that halfcab heel bluntslide he does down that ditch?
SLAP is slipping!

How high would you think that slab city spot is in person?? That shit is bananas.

I know he’s not jumping down huge sets but if that stuff is low impact i’m a fingerboarder
-
Slap is an excellent daily reminder that it is so easy to find something to bitch about. I include myself in the set of everybody, of course. Doesn't change the fact that if you bitch all day long, then you were probably the bitch all along.
Geoff was awesome. Ronnie blew my fucking brains out. Lived the song, unbelievable skating. I'd buy the dvd of this video, no question.
-
I think it's ironic how some here are complaining about Rowley doing low impact stuff in his 40's when he was the first to hit some of the biggest spots in skating (Staple Center, that giant 20 stair he boardslid in Sorry, and the ollie down the 18 in the same part). I think Rowley has earned the right to skate smaller stuff (even though you could probably get more fucked up skating some of those banks).
Anyways, I thought Rowley killed it with great style, along with Pedro and Ronnie.
-
If the theme was a dedication to Phelps, sort of surprising the video didn't have more TNT footage considering he was in a band with him, was a SOTY and reps SF.

Exactly. If Reynolds got the nod of approval to skate low impact, why not Rowley? Not that any of that shit was low impact or anything, but I’d probably enjoy watching 5 minutes of Rowley skating a curb more than anything any of today’s robots put out.
-
Love and respect Rowley but that was Ronnie's video. Amazing. Great to see his trick repertoire expanding also. Most stylish transition skateboarder right now.
-
Insane all around
These guys just devour concrete
-
okay i know i talked shit about rowley's impending part it mark's thread but i liked this. that said, even before this part his tricks-at-gates-of-hell card was punched, in the parlance of dom henry.
-
I think if they just minimized Rowley's part a bit, it would have been more impactual. I felt it was a tad long but I love how he's still skating. A lot more than what we can say about a lot of others in his age.
-
Noo Pedro don't film with airpods in your so sexy ahaha
-
Ronnie for soty
-
watching Ron blast his knee cap was so BUCK.
Sick seeing footage from Rowley
-
There is plenty of Street League commentary at your disposal if you really want to hate on Rowley. Only a fool would talk shit about his skating in this.
-
God damn that broken knee cap.
The fact that Rowley is still killing it at his age is insane.
Instant classic in my book.
-
That was so rad!! Pedro and Ronnie shred. And thank you God for a full Gee-off part in 2019, he fucking goes for it
-
I know he’s not jumping down huge sets but if that stuff is low impact i’m a fingerboarder

It's insane to see Rowley doing what he's doing at 40. It does seem to repetitive occasionally but it's all pretty gnarly stuff.
Pedro and Ronnie did a good job respectively. I think this is the first part I've seen from Pedro (may be drawing a blank) but, he left a good impression.

loved the rowley footage. all of it.

Wow.

He has a full part in Propeller if you ever watched that all the way through.

Can some on gif Ronnies bank to bank fs 180 grab? That trick was pure style. The whole line was.
I'm glad we still get to see Rowley skate. He truly is on of the goats..
Pedro is a maniac like others said. He skates with so much speed..
-
Kyle Walker's tricks were sort of random- both excellent however especially the tailslide kickflip out at 5 Hips ditch in Austin.
-
an underpass/ditch/skatepark tour de force
-
This was really fucking good. Also both those slams were pretty insane.
-
I enjoyed this.
Ronnie has sick style.
Pedro is nuts.
Geoff is one of the Goats for sure. I like the ditch skating.
-
I always liked Ronnie Sandoval, but this was some extra-spicy shit
Whole thing was great
-
Rowley's whole part in Chichagof was mini-ramp skating so you guys can calm the fuck down on the low impact hating. That shit came out 15 years ago.
-
Sandoval is my current front runner for SOTY!!
That part was so damn entertaining.
-
He's 40.

I'll have to rewatch it.
Gonna rewatch the video but, I've been itching to skate again and take a good slam because of this
-
Would have liked if Rowley skated to Ring of Fire to add another LFC song to a part
-
That Ronnie footage and edit made for such an enjoyable watch I’ve been back to it 4 times.
-
I liked the board slide on the bridge, when I drive by bridges I always check the rails because of Rowley. In my mind I always have a moment of excitement thinking this might be the one he hit, but I am Canadian so that is highly improbable. Also liked the magic carpet fs flip slam / scream. Those are brutal.
-
pedro is amazing but he is not from USA so yeh
-
Rowley should stop. Him standing on shit, and getting the keys...cute. The woods skating was the worst.
Lovell, you're not gonna get an award for skate cinematography. And the double angles, and the establishing shots are out of control mate.
Kyle Walker, worst dude out.

The Ugly - Ronnie’s song was one of the lamest covers I’ve ever heard, and it was still the best song in the video. You can dedicate a video to Jake (RIP) without using the shitty music he was into.
I didnt love that rendition either but that wasnt the best song. Listen to Thrasher skate rock volume 1. If you dont connect with the music that helped shape our culture you dont deserve to be a part of it
-

I don't know if you're helping prove our point or not. But ya that's my issue, Haven't really had any interest in watching rowley skate for years now, Not taking anything away from what he's done of course like I said previously his sorry part is one of the best ever. which is why I have no interest in watching him come through and milk it every 3 or 4 years to coincide with some new shoe or whatever the fuck it is. And its funny people keep mentioning reynolds like his low impact skating isn't legit ledge and manny lines with flip tricks, I'd like to see Rowley ollie up a 3 stair in 2019, even a fucking fakie flip in a line would be nice.

Vans must have the record for shittiest video names

I've watched it twice now. Definitely appreciated it more on the second viewing.
Rowley still has some serious skills on a board. Kind of weird that a lot of stuff felt like revisiting Propeller. Same spots, similar high bridge grind etc but ultimately I'm a fan. Really dug a couple of noseslide pop overs he did (one to straight and one nollie bs 180 out).
Impossible 50 was very stylish.
Pop shuv out of the skate park in London (?) made me think of his pop shuv down Santa Monica triple set. Underrated trick of his.
Song was sick.
Pedro kills it so hard. I'd love to be able to skate this fearlessly.
Cant believe no one has bought up his second last trick- pop shuv/big spin wall jam.
Backside nose pick on the fence was badass too.
Haven't watched much of Ronnie before but he's pretty dope. Good style. Blunt to fakie on the fence was mental.
Overall this is a great format for Vans. Much easier than sitting through full parts from 20+ guys. 15 min vids are the new full length. Could of done with a team montage I guess but I ain't mad.

Another excellent example. They really suck back up to his feet on the catch. Does Rowley have the best bs pop shuv of all time?

I’m imagining you approaching Josh Kalis or Stevie Williams, presenting them with a poorly recorded punk rawk track from 1987, and telling them that if this particular music doesn’t resonate with them they have no place in skateboarding or skateboarding culture and quietly giggling to myself.

I'm still laughing at the idea that Thrasher Skate Rock is somehow mandatory to worship. I've never even heard one of those albums but from my experience with Thrasher videos I'd assume it's a compilation of the worst punk rock music in the country.

They're from the 80s. Bad punk hadnt happened yet. And would you seriously turn someone pro who couldnt drop in on an x factor ramp? Ill stoo but if youre really into stevie and kalis why are you going to watch this vans video then sit here and complain about it?

haha just cause he ate "so" much shit doesn't mean he's not milking it. And he backside flipped up a wall out of a snowboard sized kicker so relax, Also a wall that a lot of other tricks have already been done on.

So much to digest!
Ok, first - yes, there was already plenty of crappy music in the 80's and I'm sure Skate Rock was full of it.
What the hell is an X Factor ramp?! I love this alternate reality where dropping in on said ramp is the measuring stick of a real pro.
Lastly - it may be hard to believe, but some people actually like more than one distinct style of skateboarding, and will watch a Vans video AND a DGK video. Crazy, huh? Even crazier, apparently people can express their own opinions without losing their membership to 'real' skateboarding.
Are all the 'real' skaters hanging out at the X Factor ramp and listening to Skate Rock?

Do you actually skate? Have you skated a step up before? are you aware of the low impact and minimal risk? Whats happens on an unsuccessful backside flip on this "huge" obstacle? absolutely nothing. You're making it sound like its so gnarly like he's not making it up easily every try and just waiting for one to be under his feet and roll away.
And honestly its gross how not only are you overly confident that I'm an idiot, But the fact you also added that whole "save ten seconds so I can look at a gif thanks homie" is the most cringe shit ever and makes it very hard to take you seriously.

I’ve seen dudes who can skate 20 stair handrails and trey flip down 10+ Who can drop in and carve, but can barely axle stall or rock to fakie. This really wouldn’t surprise me. It’s just surprising he can’t even drop in and kick turn. Even the most insane street skaters who can’t even touch tranny can at least drop in.

I skate mostly street and only have basic transition skills and I think I would trade those for the ability to skate street at a pro level.

First of all, of all things you could learn how to drop in on, why would you do it on an X factor kicker?
Second of all, those things are mean to launch off of, not drop down on.
Third, don’t underestimates those fucking things. Once the Velcro wears off those things slide around like a motherfucker. It would be even more embarrassing saying you broke your leg from dropping in because the ramp slid then just saying you can’t drop in.

Beagle understands supply and demand.
I'm not digging through this whole thread, but has it occurred to anyone that maybe there are so many "unimpressive" tricks in Rowley's part because he got laid the fuck out and had to use whatever throwaway he'd stacked to fill the part?

Reminds me back in my drinking days when I had a $10 bottle of wine with me at 1 am waiting for the bus, and a drunk couple came up to me and offered me $20 then $30 for it. A lightbulb went off in my head. Never did anything about it though.

Dudes are shitting on rowley because to them skating big shit is stair sets and handrails, yet I’m pretty sure I’d rather try a lot more rails and stair sets over the ditches and fly outs in here. all You need to know is we have morons on slap as per usual, that’s about it.

There's just a popular opinion that skateboarding is a cow and Geoff's milking it. Despite his years of shredding he is undeserving of taking things different,or low impact according to some.
I loved the part,not his best but at least he is still trying to make it work with what he has got

Ok I've posted in here way too many times, I'll make this my last. But this is what I don't understand, Why do you guys assume that because I don't like a new rowley part I only fuck with like Zion and that french back 3 kickflip guy (or whoever Johnny candoeverything is trying to refer to) When in reality I like to think I'm like everyone else with a brain and enjoy wknd or atlantic drift videos, Maybe some new Jake Johnson or Danny Brady for example.
And then you guys go off with ridiculous confidence that everyone is a moron, or some young dumb kid. When I think what might be worse than all of it are the obviously young kids who post on here just enough to pretend they're like an open-minded 30+ skater and think andrew allen is the best of all time strictly to fit it.
and give replies like this..

When I think what might be worse than all of it are the obviously young kids who post on here just enough to pretend they're like an open-minded 30+ skater and think andrew allen is the best of all time strictly to fit it.
and give replies like this..

Rowley part was sick. Footage of old dudes I grew up on still ripping will always get me more stoked than any new guy part could. Exactly what I needed to see before skating today. Went out and filmed a clip on a bank today and skated a little faster.
Just because you don't fit into the generalization of a dumb kid who hates seasoned skaters' parts doesnt mean the generalization exists for no reason. There's plenty of people that hate Rowley's current output and love the most generic, "look pissed and serious before doing a pretty safe trick that doesn't warrant the dramatics." Good on you for having good taste. Sorry my stereotype hit you wrong.

I’m a secret 16 year old? Sick I hope my knees start acting like it. You’re a weird dude and dumb.
Anyway thats enough slap for today forever
Fixed that for you.

I always think of his session on that 9 stair rail in Whittier in Sorry. He does a big spin front board, 360 flip lip, 270 lip, then cab front board to regs and to fakie. It was such an epic firing off of tricks at the time but was like a harbinger of the Nyjah era of contest skating. Those same tricks down practically that same rail in the big section could’ve won almost any contest from like 2007-2017.

If any of you even took one of Rowley's slams from back in the day you wouldn't be skating at all let alone skating any of the ditch spots in this video post 40 years old. I feel sorry for people who don't get stoked on anything thats not Johnny Candoeverything doing the craziest tricks in the newest zoom-in-on-everyone's-face generic video.
THANKS.
Also, let's talk milking.....

just noticed they photo shopped the sign off the fence for the cover shot but its in the footage
Yo either you are Roger Bagley, or we have 100% proof that he lurks SLAP because nobody else is noticing that.

Is there anyone else Rowley's age still pushing themselves physically at that level?

Jamie Thomas is a little older and he still tries to go for it, we’ll see in the Zero video soon. Reynolds of course although he’s 41.

Its pretty obvious if you see the mag after the part, and Boil the Ocean pointed it out in his latest post.

Rowley crushed it are you kidding? Dude is over 40 and literally still risks his life for skating. I don’t even give a shit about ditch skating but you’re tripping if you can’t get behind him.
Chameleons track was ace.
Agree 100% with this. There’s no way any of us are taking slams like that in our 40s.
just gotta bump this

Rowley is still so sick. Loved him skating to gray matter.

What's up with this Elijah Berle part?
I read that Gilbert is hoping on the project too.
