How old is Bobby these days? He still has that crazy fast and smooth style

And just like that, Bobby Puleo releases footage of him skating in SoCal. I guess it really is 2020 huh?

I know this is nitpicky and I can't remember exactly so correct me if I'm wrong, but the original ollie didn't use a sign for the bump strip, correct?

Doesn't look like there was a bump strip when Laoiza did it

Front 180 ain't one upping a straight ollie especially when homeboy shops at Hot Topic and uses a sign.

yeah, front 180 over wide flat gaps is somewhat easier than ollie

It totally is, especially when approaching at an angle. The turn contributes some extra distance that a straight Ollie lacks. Also landing 90 degrees and falling is more controlled than hanging up, at least for me. Not that I have ever taken it anywhere close to a gap like this.

[rawbertson.]

Less scary to try maybe, but harder to roll away from looking nice. this one didnt look that nice tbh it is hard to make a fs 180 look good, i think chris pfanner had the right idea

[TheDraught]

^^ still that great style. 
MJ and Henry comebacks in the same week. Looking forward to 2021.

[RoaryMcTwang]

Not really "crazy" but not particularly deserving of its own thread. As much as I've dogged on MJ, I gotta admit: he still looks pretty comfortable on a skateboard.

Same thing every time with MJ. He talks until everyone hates him, then he drops a clip with 10 fairly basic tricks at a skatepark and everyone's a fan again because he still has the best style. I don't care anymore to be honest, talk all you want, just keep filming Marc!

As to the presentation of this clip, however, even though I kind of liked it:



Pretentious? Moi?

RIP Nicky Henson.

[Grind King Rims]

All I could think of was: are these the ideas that he had going, and going, and going, and "the company couldn't keep up"? Not even saying I didn't like it, but I'm not trying to get juiced.

Maybe I'm showing my naivety but did Marc Johnson come up with the initial art direction for enjoi? I can't remember but it was him and Rodney that started Enjoi, right?

[listentoaheartbeat]

He could not have taken that fall better. He either is in extremely good shape at 43, or he completely lucked out on that one.

[robasheep]

Damn. 2nd one.

That was amazing!


My friend Jon filmed that...he's got some great stuff on his instagram page!

Agree straight ollie would be scarier, but I do think landing fakie on the bump strip is a somewhat sketchy factor in this equation. Looks like he still had enough speed just to slide through it.

I've only briefly met Jon but god damn he has been putting down some dope shit at Plaza this past year. I'd say my favorite clips I've seen there in a long time. Great style. 

Edit: Case in point...

[Hanna Schygulla]

Nollie f/s 360 in is sick as hell, but not out. Slightly earlier in his feed he's got a nollie f/s flip over a spine that is fucking beautiful.

Going back a little to that MJ clip: I have not been into that dude since high school, but the fakie 5-0 fakie flip was awesome and fully brought back 411 Profile Marc –– I can hear the Promise Ring.
