This is a prime example of how style can keep a part relevant even 20+ years after the fact. This piece of nostalgia and history is truly timeless and will live on forever.
Yeah, it's just ridiculous. He comes off that blunt at 27 seconds and still rolls away just as fast haha. Okay, maybe not as fast, but you can barely tell he's slowed down at all. The only real giveaway is that Fred is ahead of him, but it's crazy how fast he was going that entire line. It looks like he's floating. Ronnie Creager was, in some ways, not human to me. @@Thelionatays
Heh. Did you have a JVC? In some ways, it makes me sad because it reminds me of old times with friends and stuff. I started skating in 2000 and the nostalgia is just too much at times.@@MrBluntNose
This was the part that always got me running out the door to skate. His skating was so clean and smooth and he wasn't doing what was impossible. He made his style look so reachable and that's what got me so hyped for his part. So fluid and picture perfect for it's time
@@cirocjones9886 he even said it himself. This whole part was last minute and he knew he didn't have anything that compared to the monster line up, with such short amount of time. I was making a compliment because this was the part I use to watch the most. It inspired me to get out and skate. Just clean ass school skating.... My favorite.... No disrespect intended.... I got this video the week it came out. One of the best
Funny I remember when this vid premiered he was taking slack because all his tricks were simple compared to all the other heavy hitters on the team nailing bangers in their parts. I always appreciated Ronnie’s creativity and commitment to the fun of skateboarding. I’ll have to check that latest interview. Much Love for Creager
Gotta love them Droors cargo’s, damn I miss those. Creags always had two of the best in skateboarding - attitude and stylin’ pants. (Nollie 360 flip too)
@@firearmretreat Nice! I remember studying Ronnie's foot movement, frame by frame (around 00:40 in this video) from start to completion, to learn 3-flips. Got good at em, and got them flipping fast as hell. My signature trick is the Rick Flip!
@@heidetermeg427 the fact that you learned how to 3 flip from Creager's perfect SWITCH version is just proof how good he was. I also bought this tape as a kid and don't regret it.
Dude the whole line is nuts as well! Nollie Tre, blunt to fakie, switch ollie hydrant, switch tre, switch fs blunt. My only complaint is that I wish his part was longer
@@aaronovski9949is he supposed to do what rodney mullen level technical stuff ? Stle is everything, wanna see a lack of style , check out nyjah houston
Fisheye lenses 😊 Awesome 👍 Also love that they finally re-issued the Creager shoes from this video. Been wearing them everyday, makes me feel like my feet have been transported back to the late 90’s haha.
I love how he skates the hilton ledges on harbor Blvd in o.c so cal by mg house and the Fullerton dmv ledges in o.c and son many other spots fos bless ronnie for putting o.c on the map dont forge the infamous o.c pioneer park hockey ring be demolished
The crazy part is that this video part is what got him canned from ES since he wouldnt do big gnarly handrails... yet it is a timeless piece of style and smoothness
Ronnie was smart for not geting caught up doing dare devil tricks. I think thats where street skating took a wrong turn. Why would you want to break bones and destroy your body? Flat ground and ledges and stuff is dangerous enough but skating is supposed 2 b fun. If i was a father i wouldnt want my son flying down huge stair sets, now seeing him 360 flip into a nose manual real stylish, that i would aprove.
Can someone please explain what is going on at 01:20 ? It's like a no comply kickflip and Ive watched it like 10 times now and I cant understand how he does that. Like what makes the board flip? I look at the back foot and it's just chillin' and the front foot hardly flicks at all but some how get a perfect flip and catch, smooth AF. So steezy!
@@Brahmsy 2 years later....but I think it's basically like a fakie bigspin kickflip, except rather than a 360 flip, the board does a 540 flip. I think it's called a fakie biggerspin kickflip.

Amen. My VCR player's Rewind button took a beating back in the early 2000s. I blame this part for that 😂
Best part in the whole video

2023 and still hammers

His globe part also got me hyped as well
When did you first watch this? "He wasn't doing what was impossible" this part/ Ronnie was semi groundbreaking tubby. Be more respectful OF RONNIE

@@Mrbungleface0u818they don't know, they don't know how read a comment it's sad and you good. Fuck sick.
@@Mrbungleface0u818 I have you feeling you couldnt do 25% of what he did in this part
Ronnie Creager is hands down So-Cals answer to Tom Penny
Everyone skates floppy nowadays. This was style and text book smooth.
He s skating is still so good 20 years after the es video🛹🔌🌟👉🏼Ronnie creager big legend🙌🙌🙌
Magnetic feet.
Loved Ronny since 93
The no comply flip blew me away
Me too! I tried to learn it after I saw this back in 2001
This part still stands strong..@lmost 20 years later!
Style is forever
@@euminkong a good song is forever too

Bucket Hat Ronnie Creager is the best
No joke best part in menikmati
Gotta love them Droors cargo’s, damn I miss those. Creags always had two of the best in skateboarding - attitude and stylin’ pants. (Nollie 360 flip too)
I had this shit on VHS! I'm that old. This is how I learned 3-flips!
My favorite part ever. Even trumps Artos' part. This is so beautiful
the fact that you call them "3-flips" is dating yourself and we love it!!!! I love how skateboarding evolves
@@firearmretreat Nice!

Anyone here now that they're re-releasing his shoe?
I really miss these days. Also the Team es was the Shit!
That nollie Tre opener is probably one of the smoothest ever done
U got that right
I see your Creager nollie tre, and I raise you Lewis Marnell's nollie tre over a picnic table at the end of Nike SB Chronicles vol. 1...
Dude the whole line is nuts as well! Nollie Tre, blunt to fakie, switch ollie hydrant, switch tre, switch fs blunt. My only complaint is that I wish his part was longer
@@newmason5572 that’s what made the part so good. It left you wanting 5 more minutes of it.
I'm guessing all of these new recent comments are because people just saw his interview at the Nine Club
Wellllllllll
@@marcelboogaard3809 we are back! Huh? Back again at the nine club!
So smooth and effortless, like a ghost.
Probably cuz he did absolutely nothing major in this part, just a Bunch of basic technical tricks that impress just beginners.
Boooooooo to the toilet talking
@@aaronovski9949is he supposed to do what rodney mullen level technical stuff ? Stle is everything, wanna see a lack of style , check out nyjah houston
@@kluse.2329 Rodney Mullen? Lol you are a damn fucking poser, rofl shut tha front door
@@michaelrow8745 lol don’t give a crap Ronnie creager is great, this part just sucks plain and simple
Last three - each as smooth as the last. Like glass.
My fave skater😊
The tricks, the style, the smoothness, the music! The only minus of this masterpiece is the length - tooo shooort!!! We need more! Peace!
Last line in the hockey ring no push is legendary
One of my favorite lines ever. It shows how good he is at both stances
@@Watsonclipsfordays It's almost like a palindrome. Fs 180, Crooks 180, then switch crooks 180, Sw FS 180. Gotta love it.
@@HomeStudioBasics yup, basically a mirrored line. So sick!
@@HomeStudioBasics yup! I have a feeling that inspired Arto’s intro in Sorry.
Switch 180 over a waist high trash can? How on earth!?!?!
I am so glad I watched this.
My alltime fav skater
This has always been my favorite part in the video.
Every trick was perfect.
The bs ts with the 270 out is so buttery
Smoothest switch skating ever.
Watched this hundreds of times on my VHS copy of Menikmati in 2001 and beyond. Thanks Ronnie!
Fisheye lenses 😊 Awesome 👍 Also love that they finally re-issued the Creager shoes from this video. Been wearing them everyday, makes me feel like my feet have been transported back to the late 90’s haha.
💯🖤
Legendary dude
Great part in a fantastic video.
Such a smooth style. Looks so effortless
Did him dirty following Arto, no disrespect. Such a GREAT part. Legend. 0:19 - 0:50 seemed like dream spots..
The the battle of the berrics 2022 brought me here!
Super dope and also his Battle Commander is awesome
Smoothest style of anyone to this day
Unfortunately this is not originally in 16:9 which makes this video look strange.
I love how he skates the hilton ledges on harbor Blvd in o.c so cal by mg house and the Fullerton dmv ledges in o.c and son many other spots fos bless ronnie for putting o.c on the map dont forge the infamous o.c pioneer park hockey ring be demolished
I would say, this part, anything with Javi Sarmiento and Daniel Lebron is what we should look to in the history books of street skating
Best intro
Honestly my favorite part in this video, arto too but hes so smooth its just too perfect.
How has this not gotten more views?
I can't believe it's not butter..!
Badass part even 23 years later
Living Legend Man
Man he puts me in the mind of Tom penny. Soooooo good!
you have to have really good style to pull off the bucket hat. Creager and Penny did it nicely.
You gotta understand tech skating was at a crazy level back then it just didn’t get the appreciation that is does today.
This part I would watch before I skated. 360 flips, Varials and collecting boards playing Skate. Good times. Thank you for uploading!
The crazy part is that this video part is what got him canned from ES since he wouldnt do big gnarly handrails... yet it is a timeless piece of style and smoothness
Holy shit this takes me back
Smooth > gnar all day
The way he comes out of blunts...
This section still feels like today ✌️
nostalgia
Flip in, flip out/ Mirror lines
He usually has a great cinematographer that's capable of complimenting his fluid style.
This is such a great video and I love his intro with the voice message
Love this!! ❤
So smooth
Sooo good
this got thrown up after watching ronnie on nine club
forgot this dude had this part. the song is killer.
skating speaks for itself.
So weird how he does a line with a front nose and nollie 180 switch crook then fullcab flip. Easy as shit line for him
style 🤙
Tailslide king?
I'm blanking....just put my skate tricks in there

Couldn’t agree more , I’m in my 30s now and all that dare devil stuff I leave to the youngings. I don’t go over 5-6 stairs sets at this age
as good as he was here, he got a lot better later on like in 2012
Crazy that this was shot on an iphone 7, looks really good for back then!
I dont even think we had ipods yet when this was filmed bro
dont know what all these comments trying to say. 100% timeless
👍👍👍👍
the best fucking intro ever
I chose my username 10 years ago because of this part

He uses his fingers. Look up his Battle Commander part, there's a better angle of him doing it.
@@jamesbelkin9204 Ah yes. That makes total sense! I was beginning to think it was just magic. Cheers for the reply!
Does anyone know what the trick is called at 1:29 ? That trick looks so cool !
@@Brahmsy 2 years later....but I think it's basically like a fakie bigspin kickflip, except rather than a 360 flip, the board does a 540 flip. I think it's called a fakie biggerspin kickflip.
@@pierce45 Awesome! Thank you for the reply!
What trick is that at 1:29 ?
Here because of Dean Palmer
おーい!日本人おるかーい!寂しいやん。😂
Ahead of his time
Fuct part is he had more shit that wasent in California filmed
éS took his pro model away because he wouldn’t switch his style to stair counting.
Never noticed before but this part has zero manual tricks. That's so weird for him.
Who watches and thinks - yeh this dudes getting the sack.
After he skate all his life for PLAN B they throw away like garbage
