it’s wild to me that some of the gnarliest skaters thomas, reynolds, greco, whose bodies - because of the intensity of their skating - you’d think would not be able withstand the ravages of time and age, actually have had the longest skate careers of that generation, and it makes me so happy.
happy birthday jaime, still looking so damn good on a board; an absolute legend, and inspiration.
They are addicted and love skateboarding.
They also changed to a lot more healthier lifestyle than as time went on
Stop partying slash never party and take care of yourself.
Also some people can flat out take a beating
I was always told a body in motion stays in motion. If they sat stagnant for years then yea, age would probably set in on them but staying healthy & still moving is whats keeping them up & going. Im here for it, being 31 it takes a lot to still get out there, & guys like Reynolds & Thomas give me motivation. Oh & cant forget about heavy hitting Ryan Decenzo still giving young bucks a run for their money.
@@ronniecreager2585 - yeah, some people are just durable. Some of these running backs in the NFL with long careers have the same "durability" gene, I swear.
It's not just the 49 tricks that is impressive. He did them all in one session.
I m 42 and i was already watching his vids when i was a teenager, more than 20 years ago now and i'm still riding.
This man, with Reynolds, Muska, Boulala, Campbell and others of the era are absolute legends. Seeing them still riding with attitude at this age is incredible, big big big respect.
Skateparks under freeways are such a vibe. 👌
Dudes almost 50 and Fucken shredding like bro that was insane we love you Jamie thanks for being such an inspiration 👊
I first knew of Jamie in probably 1996. He is and always will be one of the greatest Skateboarders ever.
15 years ago, when I started skating, i watch zero and mystery videos. Definitely respect his profiles back then, but in these days at 49 years he real hero and inspiration. Its not just skating, this is really high level tricks for this age🔥
Did you notice he is wearing the same clothes? Must be all in the same day.
25 years ago I watched Zero. Ill always remember the ollie off 2nd story railing into parking lot.
@@bqb9591 Yeah. Noticed the same thing. Sounds like Jamie Thomas. 😂 But yeah... Absolutely insane to be shredding like this, at that age. (Considering the hammers he's constantly dropped throughout his career as a pro.) 🫡 Salute to him. ✌️
Wow !!! The style and grace that’s in that session is simply unreal !!! He is a legend
Still killin' it! I hope you had a Happy Birthday, and I hope I'm still skating when I hit these numbers!
Just started back skating at 31 years old after 15 years. This gives me hope
Love seeing that old board graphic too. Takes me back to better days.
This guy was one of my childhood heroes. Glad he's still going strong 🛹I might start skateboarding again after a 15 year hiatus .
Happy birthday jamie thomas big fan since 94
I'm so glad you're still above ground on this beautiful planet. We're lucky to have you still. Love you🩶💀🖤
Im 42 now. Still love sk8ing. I remember being a 15yr old grom in FL and happen to be sk8ing a drop in a bank parking lot in Dothan. A lady comes over and says, hey you guys might know my son, “Jamie Thomas” haha! Our minds were blown that day!!!. He came out to PCB a year or 2 later for a park demo. Super humble… Autographs all around. Thank you Jamie for keepin it 100 all these years!!!
my pops took a Friend and I too my first demo 2001 Circa Demo, COLE was still on Enjoi, Apples had literally just turned pro. My dad still brings up how nice he was, how he told everyone to be respectful because I will stay here for everyone to get something. signed. pops went up to him and chatted for a bit
Remember watching Misled Youth with friends on video tape with my friends in Puerto Rico. Jamie is amazing. God Bless him
My first favorite skater. Had a copy of Thrill of it All and watched it over and over. Back before Tony did the 900, before the Tony Hawk Pro Skater games. Skateboarding was raw back then. Awesome to see Jamie still ripping!
He was always my favorite..since I was a little kid and saw the leap, It was the heaviest thing my 11 year old eyes had ever seen...Jamie was my favourite skater to this day after that 🤘😂
i love how his board looks exactly like the underneath of the bridge !!
Jamie still slayin it! hell yeaaah! 👍👍👍
Thank you for skating, Jaime.
Used to be my favorite skater growing up as a kid. Glad to see he still rips ❤
I'm 53 and just bought my first board in the past 2 decades. This is an inspiration. Just hope I don't fall and break my hip.
Or your elbow. I broke mine and now it's held together with metal and I can't straighten it all the way 😞
Finally got my Vajra deck in the mail yesterday. Taking it really slow, only pushing around the driveway. Haven't even tried to ollie or anything yet.
Still, there's a bunch of sticks and acorns, so I'm remembering how to fall again.
Get pads, trust me
Yikes. It's ok in your teens and twenties, bones bend more. And it's ok at 53 if you never quit since your teens. But to get back into it after 20 years... I tried to get back into it in my late 30's. Landed funny on the most simple trick, foot went 180 deg and ended up in hospital for 2 weeks, bolts, pins, 2 plates, and 6 months to get me walking again. That was 10 years ago. You just aren't as flexible - you can't afford any mistakes to relearn the skill, and it's only through mistakes that we learn, catch22. Stamp collecting??
Just take it very slow with progression
Whatever else goes wrong, I'll always have 4 years to catch uo to Jamie.
Love to see it, hes worked hard to stay in shape and healthy enough to move like this at 49. I’m only 20 but damn this motivates me so damn much. Love to Zero and Jamie Thomas
My biggest role model growing up just turned 49, holy shit. Happy Birthday Jamie, you've done so much for skateboarding and we owe you a tremendous amount of gratitude for that.
50 years from now, *"99 tricks at 99"* gonna pop off!
Warms my heart to see this. Jamie’s one of the dudes that got me into skating like 20+ years ago..
After the career he's had, being one of the most prolific and ground breaking riders over the last 30 years; the huge drops, the insane rails, the numerous stunning video parts, the amount of gnarly slams taken, and being a front runner in raising the limit of what was possible to do, it's simply unfathomable that he can still skate this well at this age...What an inspirational skateboarder at 49 - and inspirational is almost too (fs) feeble a word to even get close to describing his contribution to skateboarding...Timeless style...outright daredevil, leader, pioneer, there aren't enough superlatives in language...Happy Birthday Chief! Big gap to Smith at 49 years old??,,, bloody hell Jamie!!! I can't help but hope there's one of these at 50 - but then again - I think he's somewhat earned his place by now already :) Thank you Jamie Thomas
What an icon to still be doing it to this day! What a dope ass park too.
Happy birthday Jamie.. still ripping! I have some good memories of skating with you and Kirk the Jerk.. 30 years ago! OSIDE square pool, late night hill bombs, etc.
Holly Crap and that is why I started learning tricks at 52 never too old to just have fun!!
he falls so gracefully, that's a lifetime of skating
What's left to say... He's still an IDOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice session ! Jamie Thomas of my bests ever. Love the mini ramp spot
The chief bringing the heat!! That was amazing! Happy belated birthday🎉
Definitely stoked my skating! Thank you Jamie for all the years of ripping !❤ HBD!
Happy Birthday To you CHIEF! Thanks for a super fun part to watch! Styles for MILES!
Jamie always knew how to make em booiiii - fire! HB CHAMP!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG TIME LEGEND AND INSPIRATOR...! MAY GOD BLESSES YOU ALWAYS JAMIE
The legend. Happy birthday Jamie! Jesus bless u man!
Mislead youth is one of the greatest video thanks to the goat Jamie Thomas legend
I’m 50 and sadly lost my skateboarding skillz, very inspiring.
five-0 without tail skidding is very classy
on god@tydye7216
AKA Pivot Grind. (At least "back in the days"...😂)
Love Jamie’s style, what a legend 🎂
Beautiful edit. Happy birthday Jamie! Thank you for sharing.
Man it’s wild to see Jamie still doing it and he kills it as always. Been watching him since 05’, makes me want to get back on the board, I miss the hell out of it. Much respect to “The Chief”.
This man never stops working on his craft. He never stops giving to us. A god amongst men on the maple. Thank you for all you've given us Jamie.
That muscle memory style is timeless. I got to meet Jamie Thomas when I was young at a skate demo and asked him if he would do the leap of faith again, I forget what his reply was but his part in the thrill of it all video with the time chamber brothers song is a classic! Stay true Jamie!
Seasoned wisdom and experience right there.... an impressive sight. Smooth and perfected.
Very inspiring. When this man sets his mind to something, nothing stops him. hard worker and passionate. There are no prizes here, only skaters.
Never would have thought 30 years ago man I'd still be watching some of my favorites do the damn thing at the ages they are. Jamie- always been a SOLID MOFOOOO!
I forgot how good his style is! Much love from Minnesota!
Happy belated bday
49 and sstill boltss!!! happy birthday sir!!! God Bless U ALWAYS!!!

Still one of the best and will always be my fav.
Mind blowing and hugely inspirational. Showing what decades of refining tricks looks like 🙌

Dude that must be one of the most perfect nose grinds down a hubba Ive ever seen. Legend!!!
Always loved his perfectly-balanced back 5-0s!
The chief has spoken! Switch tre at 49! Wohh. Amazing...
So great to see this. I did a 50 for 50 five years ago & it was an awesome experience. So great to see you still pushing yourself and seriously ripping Jamie. Your Transworld Interview you did all in one day was a big influence in my own skating journey, Cheers & Happy Belated!
I was just at that park. Doing all that at his age. Much respect what a legend
Started my Skateboarding with Jamie Thomas Videos in his Young years.
Respect ❤ Respect ❤ Respect
Cannot believe this man still shreds so hard.
watched you as a kid and now i'm watching you as an adult at 31 and you're still inspiring me to go out and have a blast. keep rippin Jamie!
My favorite to ever do it and it's Zero or Die for life!!! Got alot of Zero decks finally for the 20 anniversary last year I got the Skeleton deck from the dying to live Era! My favorite board , brand and skater ever and its always been Zero or Die, skated nothing but Zero and some Mysterys since I was 12 when Dying to live came out 21 years ago! Wish Jamie would go back to Fallen and I know he had to give it up and doesn't want to cause it's not his own but it will always be! The rival, the ace ,etc so many awesome model's! Congrats to The Chief and all the hard work he's put in over the years cause it's ZERO OR DIE!!!
Awesome, Epic, and Incredible!!
Happy Birthday, dude!!
May Peace Prevail On Earth 🌍🌎
This has turned into a thing where I literally wait it to be released! Jamie Thomas is effing legend and can't wait to see what he'll be doing next year for his 50th!!!
