The people with the best style will land a trick slightly off balance and make it look cooler than basically anyone else doing the same thing but cleaner. Like that old Guy clip from what may have been the old world park after Ginos spot
or just dudes like ethan fowler doing a bs 360 in rocker jeans w a jean jacket. Just blasting through a street skating crusty curb cuts and stoops. Theres a fine line between that style and someone like HK doing a bs tail kickflip out to fakie on a rail.
Brandon Westgate is my favorite skater from the last few years. Hes like a slinky fucking puma just springing around the gaff.... Fuckin' class lad....
You know who else had sick style and a beautiful backside air, Christian Hosoi. He may not have been as technical as Tony Hawk but his style and flow was far superior. To not mention Daewon Song in the topic of style is damn near criminal.
geez no mention of Barbee, Hufnagel, Stevie Williams, Muska, Jeremy Klein, or Markovich? all who I believe had beautiful styles. Nonetheless, this was a great video post. I miss ON Skateboarding vids.
Always kind of seemed like a dude who had any sort of trick variation involving turning front-side on lock (tailslides, lipslides, etc) and not much else...
Style still matters no matter what you're doing. If you know you know, everyone has a style that's just the way people move. I would say if you have a strange or uncomfortable style it's okay because it evolves over time and experience. We all go through it and it develops with comfortability in whatever it is you're doing.
I totally agree that style matters, and actually that's what I appreciate the most in a skater. BUT at the same time many of these guys sound like old people who cannot accept that younger generations have surpassed them massively (and many modern skaters have incredible style too), so they stick to this "style thing" as a way of thinking "old times were better"... which is actually and ironically a NOT stylish attitude. Guys, most of modern brilliant skaters admire the old legends, and instead you go with this attitude. Have more respect.
such a shame how that panned out, he was amazing though and was a great and would have been greater if circumstances would have allowed, I feel for him, I really do.
Where the hell was Mike V??? Vallely oozes style every second of the day!!!!! Great documentary though....alot of cool names i havent heard in awhile!!
@@juvedoo99 95% of people who wear skate clothing don’t skate. It’s the Hot Topic of alternate sports. It used to be counterculture but now it’s a trendy, watered down, soulless corporate industry.
Jesus that hardflip at 3:05. The steeze.
switch too!
This is my favorite on video segment by far. Now let’s go skate.
perfect soundtrack for earlier skateboarding
king of da playaz ball..
............and then there is Tom Penny
Nice to hear an Enon song pop up in this. Didn’t expect that.

Plus when it's such a ridiculous trick you gotta find balance sometimes because Guy was certainly trail blazing then and now! Great comment man!❤️🛹

I hate how this video just ends.
Mark Gonzales and Jason Lee in Video Days; Matt Hensley in Shackle Me Not and Hokus Pocus.
Agreed! Video Days changed things for the better!
Skating for me is about finding the most difficult way you can to go from point A to point B and make it look easy.
I love new skating, Yuto, Nyjah, Shane O'neill particularly, but watching Tom Penny or Ray Barbee do a FS flip is a cut above and always will be.
Style peaked from 95-07
@@juvedoo99 aimu yamazuki will give u hope for current era skateboarding. he's the next style god.

Style really matter! But now days most of all pros don't have stylish .. just agressive tricks in big rails and big gaps 👊👊👍

Yeah Holmes was in a league of his own that’s for sure ❤️🛹
Mariano`s footage here is not from Mouse.
what were they doing??? smh
2024. I didn't know people were doing fakie manuals 14 years ago. Learned something today.
Not much new since the 90's🤷🏽♂️

+Kee Randel add penny to that list

i remember the stereo video coming out playing jazz. thats when i found out that satva kid i had skated with was someone.
The best trick in this video is MJ convincing everyone he's deep
Did he just disappear?
Trying
Trying
Penny, Reynolds, Mike Carroll. Sometimes Koston.
How could you forget Rodney Mullen and Daewon Song? Ultimate masters of making style.
Those two are more known for their technical prowess then style.💯
100% true. Nailed almost all my fav skaters in 5 min except Penny and Huf (RIP😢).
Young Marc Johnson before the internet daily uploads !
Tom Penny? WTF
it has already been said here... but c'mon, no tom penny!? smoothest style EVER! I almost feel like he must've been blacklisted here for some reason.
those h-street tricks were stylin tho 🤷♂
yes
Switch out the tim O'Connor footy for some Tom penny footy & this clip would be perfect 👌
Keenan Milton, Mike York, Kareem Campbell, Stevie Williams
How on earth do neither of these vids have a single clip of either Tom Penny or Peter Smolik?! 🤯
The list definitely needs an update
Great catch on Smolik. I had his first board and Osiris shoes. Nice size 8.25x32. My game got much better.
To mention Tim O’Connor in a segment about good style is hilarious 😂 my friends and I always thought he had no style if not the worst
Just about to say the same thing! Dude skates like a retarded flamingo!
Bro what?! Have you been walking around with a stick?
I miss lines man , bronze 56k lines for dayz
would rather see a stylish kickflip rather than a rocket kickdown triple flip
What's the name of this show??
J K On skateboarding
Important
lol.. I only got five words for this vid: TOM PENNY ETNIES HIGH FIVE
i like peoples pushing as something rather than always hitting a stunt.
Gino forever
True… skaters don’t really push anymore…
Must be weird for Marc to be talking about himself
Love the way marc speaks! What a dude
its interesting that style still matters in skateboarding, however in surfing, style doesnt matter, either culturally or competitively...

Duh, of course old times were better! 🎯😂
Pedro Barros...
🔥
Why does marc johnson look like cgi
Dudes a cyborg
Nate Jones!
The Guy Mariano tricks are not from Mouse
look up Paul Alexander
such a shame how that panned out, he was amazing though and was a great and would have been greater if circumstances would have allowed, I feel for him, I really do.
Tom Penny

The flick of the wrist. Like Ellingtons nollie bs in baker 3.
imagine if daniel espinoza skated 2002 how psyched they would be.
danny bradys style is unique
🤌
Ray Barbee
Marc Johnson
Matt Hensley
Ronnie Creager
Lee Smith
Brian Wenning
Gino Ianucci
Neil Hendrix
@david19476 good one
2024
Baggy pants & little wheels are CUT.
You're CUT!😂
I think style was shit in the early 90s because of the damn wheels and those egg shaped boards 😂
You weren’t around during that time and space and it shows 😂
Interpol
270 board get out 4:10
Did yall know Jason Lee's name is Earl? bet you didn't! suckerrrrs
I CANNOT believe no one has mentioned simon Woodstock, CMON! style for days LoL
What’s going on with Tommy’s chin? Look in a mirror when you shave bro.
Twuan.
ha, they dont even mention eastern exposure which set the stage for solid tricks and style...instead its california propaganda
Donny barley, tim o connor ?
@@alanperez7657Brian Anderson too.
Yes!!!!
Watched it on old VHS.
Skateboarding “style” now in 2021 is middle school hot topic kid
Not even close. That was 05-10 with Baker and Zero being the top brands.
