"Bonjour Fred...I know you guys at eS are assholes and want to see me skate more rails but I just like skating, not getting injured.  When I get hurt I can't skate, and skating is what I enjoy.  Go fuck yourself if you don't like the coverage I'm getting."

*ahem* sorry I just had to let that one out.  If you don't like this part there is something whacked about your head.

He had the best part in that video. Though I still think that is one of the worst videos ever made.

^word, my exact same reasoning for why that line is so ill.

that part was nothing compared to some of his others, (that's a given), but it was still great.  best in the video. 

i havent bought a pair of es shoes since they kicked him off, or he technically quit, whichever way it went down.

I liked his opening line alot also. Definitely a solid part but I'm not sure I liked it better than Arto's or Koston's. One of my first real favorite skate videos.

It's a finger kickflip, it looks like he just flicked the board with his fingers.

But then again, I know nothing.

yeah
he flips the board by hitting his hand down on the side, not the 'traditional' finger flip way.

Ronnie is just so good. His slides are super clean and long and he lands perfect, just keeps going on with no loss of speed. Has an effortless but powerful style. You can tell he pretty much only does tricks he can feel. When the és video came out everyone was talking how modest his part was, when in fact it's the best part in the whole video.

I just noticed his what if part doesn't have a single grind trick in it. I hope Creager never retires, cause the fucker really is like good wine.

He rarely ever does grinds.  The most I've ever seen him do were crooks and switch crooks.  He had an occasional 50-50 and nosegrind here and there, but those were even more rare.
