Ignoring the usual trolling...

I love the SF line where he's already going so fucking fast he practically has speed wobbles and then he gives these two massive pushes to go even faster...

This is the 2011 version of what Tommy G kicked off almost 30 years ago... so stoked that there's dudes skating like this.

Plus, it was in the 60s today & got to skate all day... life is good.

Telling the truth is trolling now?

part is amazing. stoked on the fs flip and front 3 over the rail to bank at springfield courthouse. a bunch of my friends brought him there after an emerica signing. my friend rob shot an ill photo of the front 3 too.

macgruber · « **Reply #93 on:** January 15, 2011, 06:48:05 PM »

awesome skating. dude is for sure one of my favorites. wish he could have a part with a song as good as his skating though, because that one was terrible

Reggie Nobles · « **Reply #94 on:** January 15, 2011, 07:03:30 PM »

That speed... so sick... even if prod can do most of those tricks westgate makes them look sick as fuck you cant deny that he hauls ass!

I can't really say how I compare P Rod and Westgate, both obviously have shit the other can't even come close to. I do like granny smith apples more than valencia oranges, though clementines are better than both.

I'm a Red Delicious man myself, granny smith close second. But I'm with you on the universal truth: clementines are the pinnacle.

asakusa75 · « **Reply #96 on:** January 15, 2011, 07:31:34 PM »

I just woke up...to that. Holy shit!!! Seeing parts like that reminds me of why skating is so awesome. Fuck yeah.

jojo_fosho · « **Reply #97 on:** January 15, 2011, 07:44:28 PM »

Jesus. Westgate rips so fucking hard. He seriously needs to buy a house in SF. Pops everything so damn high and perfect.
Front 360 over the rail was amazing

front 360's were amazing

how about "raining on the parade?" Just because its true doesn't mean it needs to be typed. not saying I don't type shit that doesn't need to be typed. but I do realize it.

The line with the kickflip over the rail and then the 180 over the rail in SF, he was barely hanging on. I love it.

The Ghost of Lenny Kirk · « **Reply #101 on:** January 15, 2011, 09:27:46 PM »

it doesnt matter if prod can add an extra rotation and flip to all of westgates tricks. the point is that hed never put a part out like that ever.

ChildoftheGhetto · « **Reply #102 on:** January 15, 2011, 09:31:07 PM »

Duh, he only puts out good video parts.

HAHHAHAHAHA P rod has so much boost I'm sure he could do most of those tricks. The back smith up, obviously, and the kickflip. I don't even remember any other tricks, and i just watched it twice, 5 minutes ago. Doing a bunch of ollies doesn't appeal to me. This shit looked like throwaway from his stay gold part. which i also thought was boring as fuck.

hahaha i love it. getting everyone all riled up

Tyroneshoelaces · « **Reply #106 on:** January 15, 2011, 10:40:51 PM »

i agree with COTG more often than not, but i will have to deviate on this because that was seriously amazing. the ollie over the drive way to bigspin flip was awesome...didnt see that coming.

and who ever posted before that "the kickflip over the bar was a big F you to leo's backside 180" is an idiot or has no friends because you don't understand what is it like to skate spots with friends.

krookedjuice · « **Reply #107 on:** January 15, 2011, 10:49:54 PM »

I'm in this. right before leo's trick (gray shirt)!

westgate is rad. one of the best dudes out right.
the kickflip over that rail still amazes me. the speed he was going at was ridiculous.
back smith up the rail was gnarly.

truth. both tricks were gnarly anyways.

Bump-to-bar tre flip isn't getting enough love. That had me muttering out loud at my screen.

Song is from Road Rash II on genisis, hawaii level.

My thoughts exactly. Tortoise has been upping the mediocrity level for decades now. I guess they've moved on to 90s video game "rock" noodling...

rawbertson. · « **Reply #114 on:** January 16, 2011, 07:51:15 AM »

yeah sure paul rodriguez is good and all but he is a sellout fag who puts kanye west on his part. p rod has so much money he doesnt even skate anymore, that was just mike mo on his part and they edited in p rod. thats why you havent seen any mike mo footage in so long, we got ghost filmers now.

H8R part 4 · « **Reply #115 on:** January 16, 2011, 07:56:38 AM »

that kickflip was stylish and the 360 flip over the bar was bonkers.
i love the fact that he pushes while hes going downhill, i'm hyped!

Westgate puts out an incredible part, and people feel the need to compare it to Paul Rodriguez? Dudes skate 100% differently than each other. There is no comparison, skating wise. Though, in the opinion scale of what is more fun to watch, I'll take charing, speedy lines with more simple tricks over bigspin heelflips down double sets all day. I'm not really into seeing how many times a board can flip or how many times you can spin out of a tailslide. Spot/trick selection > Light footed skateboarding. In my opinion.

Oh so good! I don't know how he didn't run into that pole/fence, let the 360 flip turn a little bit more to avoid it.
This guy's craaaaaaaaaaazzzzzyyyy.

COTG, there is no "truth" to whether a part sucks or not, maybe for you, but not everyone. Trolling is then pretending your opinion is truer than other opinions.

Anyway, Brandon Westgate is awesome, that 360 flip off the curb, pretttttyyy prettttttyyy good.

lalala · « **Reply #119 on:** January 16, 2011, 08:42:16 AM »

Comparing p-rod with him is an insult for westgate. Compare the man with real skaters, like busenitz.
