Vibes of Rodney Mullen, Tony Hawk, Perralta... No swearing, a helmet, a positive spirit.... This is the skating I love.
YESSSSSSS!!!!!!
Oh, he swears... but not negatively.
TheTilde soooo true
@Alan formula1 Sounds more like a general human being thing rather than a skateboarder type of person. You'll find teenagers are way more prone to behave like that and not the younger and/or older folks, but once again that has to do with age and maturity not really a skateboarding thing IMO.
@Nebula skateboarding was never "the cool thing" we are all freaks and geeks! -Jeff Grosso
I could watch this kid skate and listen to him talk about his perspective on it for hours. Powell Peralta, make Andy pro!
Nine months later, and I couldn't agree with you more. Even the soundtrack is good
His deck is freaking sick , apparently he’s spent years perfecting shape,size etc , kids genius
In fact I might just need to buy one , just for Tuesdays 😂
Just skated with him last night he was made pro 3 days ago.
@@dustinbrom3463 that's cool. I'm surprised he wasn't already pro
His understanding of all the physics and concepts of skateboarding parallels everything Rodney Mullen talk about. Andy is a true professional in his craft.
This guy's a genius and he's gonna change skateboarding. He's just incredible to watch, I've never seen anything like him in 30 years
Guys like him and Winkowski simply are bringing back old styles that have existed for decades but were deemed not cool anymore. So now that those styles haven’t been seen for years, it seems new and different. In some cases, guys like Andy Anderson and Eric Winkowski have never been seen before period for younger generations of skaters. A lot of people are tired of the super tech skating and are getting more and more into bowl and transition skating and guys skating with style and feeling over unattainable tech skating. Andy has managed to mix so many styles and tech skating in such a way that kids can relate to it. And Winkowski hitting inverts and long lipslides on handrails with an 80s shaped board and 80s street style is refreshing for people to see instead of another kickflip front crook flip out.
Thank you Powell-Peralta. This kid is Unique.
Truly one of a kind
It's neat how Stacy is attracted to him and how Andy has a style that blends perfect with the lineage of Powell/Peralta.
Redro Wollof T'nod REAL RESPECTS REAL
In my 40-plus years in skateboarding, Andy is the most original, genuine and innovative skater I've ever known. And an incredibly intelligent, fun, and cool guy as well.
Still shooting huh? I watch a lot of skate videos, and this seemed like the first one. Wow, what a take on it all
Yeah I agree I've been following this kid on RUclips for a little while I think he's probably the best skateboarder in the world right now. You should watch it in nkg I think it is... videos with him... It's just him raw at the park or spot figuring it out and it's amazing. I cannot believe how talented this kid is and I totally back the helmet thing...
Yeah, still shooting skateboarding and loving it. Andy is by far my favorite to photograph, and is also a great friend.
Love you Jim :)
Rodney Mullen?
6:00 absolutely no way, the amount of control he has to balance on one wheel and turn that precisely. Hes definitely up there with the legends of skateboarding.
Welcoming enough danger around you so that the past and future doesn't distract you. Words to live by.
He's like if Mullen and Richie Jackson had a baby and Mike V helped raise him in a Full House type deal
This is great lol
He's the Michelle Tanner of skateboarding
Hell yeah 4 of my all time favorites to watch skate. I was influenced a lot by mike v in my skating.
RedXeno spot on
kinda gay but i get what you mean
Thanks NKA for featuring Andy so much. He is one of the best skaters ever!!!!!!
thats how I found out about Andy too. NKA big ups
Yeah, Andy is how I started watching nka vids
@nkavids big ups 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Andy has to be one of the coolest skaters out there, not just skate skill too... the way he thinks and explains stuff is super interesting. "you wanna understand your trick so well that you don't have to understand your trick anymore".
I am 40... never been into skateboarding. But I just love watching videos of this kid.
zezbid4 your not 40
Andy, you are the past, the present and the future of skateboarding of all styles in only one person!
Plus the best attitude of any pro skater today
The next-gen Rodney. Please do a podcast or sit-down interview with those two together. That would be so full of stoke.
That would be rad
Bruh. I'd pay for that.
@@CreamyPesto505 so would I
Andy is the reason I am skating again at 32. I use his deck too and love it!
Hey man I’m thinking of picking up skating for the first time! I’m early 30s too never set foot on a board really wanna learn it! I’m looking at getting one of his boards too!
finally, a person that understands rodney's pandora's box.
Arianne L yes
Your the best kind of skateboarder not caught up in looking cool but just loving the sport and it shows
yo bert perhaps that is why he looks so cool eh?
@@thecaptain29 somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed
@@millerkoop3848 I'm having an awesome week, actually. Don't get all butthurt, I'm not bullying your sister or something lol
@@thecaptain29 Andy is my sister
@@millerkoop3848 it's possible.
A true master. Andy is a skateboard wizard.
Wow.. I haven't heard anyone talk about skating like this since Rodney....
His skating and approach to it, are next level.
I've never thought about certain aspects of skating until I saw this video.
Has very good amount of self awareness
He makes me wanna skate more creatively.
Discovered andy because of braille and now I'm hooked, He's amazing
Andy really is intelligent, well spoken, and understands everything about skating. He is such a gentle soul and I love watching him skate and listening to him speak.
I love when young people are smart.
I love when old people try new things
@MillennialHonkey 89 yourself.
@@OKFrax-ys2op self centered much
Such a unique style
No wonder he’s so amazing, he completely respects everything about skateboarding and understands that all styles are essential to each other.
At 43 years old, this is the first skater in a long time thats grabbed my attention. He's both technical and stylish, and that is really rare.
The Nine Club! This dude is so out of his mind not even a helmet can keep his brain in his skull...brilliant
Andy is the fresh innovation that we all needed!
Andy Anderson.. The Mullen of his generation?
The Talking Heads instrumentals made me love this video even more!
Alex Crosbie ahah the instrumental of burning down the house was on point
He starts out playing the intro to Great Gig on the Sky on piano. Knew it was going to be a banger after that
Hell yeah Andy! Takes giant cojones to do your own thing, massive respect
"I think it's important to draw the box of skateboarding so you can think outside of it. Skateboarding started out as thinking outside of the box of walking. How do I get to the store? What do I think of this curb? Oh, it's something for me to trip over, or it could be something that I spend hours tripping over on purpose."
no that never happen. It started out as these guys surfing the land. N very quickly they were doing extreme hill bombs. Bigger than anything today. N of course everyone knows they were breaking into peoples backyards and skating empty pools.
@@jhowardsupporter you're a moron
Amazing skater. There are tons of stuff that this kid can do that many hard core professional skaters couldn't touch. Very entertaining to watch.
That is just a dumb thing to say
@@gregkis how?
@@lurkwave name one thing he does that a pro can't do
@@gregkis He can do freestyle tricks Koston can't do, he does street stuff that Hawk can't do, he skates transition like Mullen could not do! Case closed!
@@seppheinzl9378 you could say the same thing about any mediocre skateboarder by that logic you dumbass.
... First exposure to Andy, his skate style, personality, and vibes really intrigued me. I began to watch more videos related to him. I found in one video who his mentors are and even more about his love of freestyle. I then stumbled onto this video and it instantly had me hooked, thinking about skateboarding on a whole different level. I have infinite amounts of respect for you and what you can do for skate culture.
PS
Normally I wouldn't comment but I felt like I can leave here with a better understanding of life and use what I interpreted from this video and apply it to my life!
Positive vibes from Kansas City.
Matthew Chilson Totally agree!
His philosophy on skating is so inspiring. Thank you for this dude.
Shout out nka vids for introducing me to this guy first!
Nigel is skateboardings scout. He can sniff out talent like no one else.
hahah me too!
Same here! This kid, NKA and my son got me back on a board! Inspiration for a life time can be found in Andy's skating and attitude!
This guy is truly one of a kind, sure he'll be a favourite of mine, thank you Nka for introducing me to this amazing skater.
Much love from Italy ❤️
He’s almost my favourite skater, Mullen and Rowley are great to watch for me , it’s nice to see a pro wearing a helmet without the stigma attached , nice one Andy 👍
This kid is my favorite skater now. Everything about his style his tricks just the way he approaches skateboarding, hes a fucking ripper and I'm so happy to see him on Powell Peralta doing 180 no comply out of grinds on rails. Andy's future is a bright one.
He's one of the few skaters I like to listen to as much as I like watching him skate. Clearly a smart guy and clearly capable of thinking outside the box, which is something I always admire.
Andy Anderson has to be one of the best skaters I have ever seen! Absolutely fluid and fearlessly Savage. His trick transitions especially on rails is absolutely astounding.
This kid was born to be a skater! So much passion!
Most refreshing, versatile, talented skateboarder I have seen in decades..., he wears a helmet and drives an old ambulance- ironic yet a positive role/roll model and has a great attitude, doesn’t take himself too seriously and makes time to interact with kids and teach!Stoked to see Powell Peralta as one of his sponsors! Keep up the great work leading by example... Namaste’
This is so amazing to see. In times where everybody does the same he is so refreshing. I hope Powell makes him pro soon.
Please say he sponsored by Powell Peralta? I couldn't think of a better fit his skating embodies the old school powell mixed with new school radness.
He is. They make custom decks for him.
Love the billed helmets, super distinctive in terms of brand recognition (and by this I just mean easily identifying Andy out of a crowd of skaters)
He's playing Pink Floyd on the piano....The Great Gig in the Sky !!!!
Thank you Floyd is my fav band and I for some odd reason couldn't think of the name of the song he was playing in the beginning I thought it was the Beatles for some odd reason.
And I am not frightened of dying -
any time will do, I don't mind.
Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it you've gotta go
"It is the feeling of being present and having enough danger surrounding you so you have nothing from your past or future distracting you."
I read your comment and had to watch the video again to find that nugget of truth. I heard it the first time but HEARD it the second. Thanks for pointing it out.
This one resonates here too :)
This is still just so good.
This dude is dope
dude ANDY you are so entertaining in the most genuine way. your just being yourself and we cant get enough of it!
Lots of influence in this guy. New fav.
6:35 That trick first debuted in a Natas Kaupas video! Doing it on transition is next level! Sick!!!
andrewmcg008 the fire hydrant spin was from Natas too. 👍
The best all around skater thus far. Not to mention how intellectual. Nice job Andrew Anderson keep up the stellar work , your parents should be proud.
Rip :(
Get this guy all the Support...he's Next level!
Never has a skateboarder covered this much stylistic and technical ground. He's A true renaissance man of this sport/puzzle. Wise and gifted beyond his years.
this kid makes me excited for the future. Seems like a genius at whatever he does. But dude. keep playing the piano!!
Love your attitude & skating.
PP, thanks for sponsoring AA, he’s a good humble human and seeing him be recognized for his creativity is awesome.
This dude defines skateboarding better than anyone.Talented and smart guy.
Brilliant. Everything said is the process.
Interesting documentary... I have often wondered what Canadians are like. I would enjoy seeing much more of this *thumbs up*
Nice then others
Im 51 years old and I have now laid my eyes on the best skater that has ever lived.PERIOD!
I’ve always looked up to Andy. One of my favorite skateboarders of all time. His freestyle is just something else.
out of this world skater, fits so right in to the powell team. needs to go pro. he represents what the brand is all about.
Andy is amazing. AMAZING!!!
"The whole concept, is just turning off thinking & then just doing it right? It really is the feeling of being present & having enough danger surrounding you that nothing from your past or future can distract you."
That just speaks to me & is the best way someone could put into words as to how skating helps so many people with depression or all sorts of other problems. I can learn to take those same lessons from a good skate session & carry them over into my daily life.
I always have the urge to go skateboarding anywhere after watching Andy Anderson!!!
Feeling it
Erick Winkowski, Nolan Johnson, and Andy Anderson are one of the most unique skateboarders of this era.
Blows me away every single time i see Andy skate....such a special dude.
Stacy Peralta consistently finds the most innovative skaters and gives them a platform to shine.
Living legend.
Ive wondered for at least a year, if not two, since I saw him, Why/how is he not already pro?
And he's nowhere near others level. Freestyle skating is considered gay. It's not the 80s anymore. Plus it's all about marketing. Send that guy out with real skaters they would eat him alive .
@@kevinholt7046 he is pro, and is this the only video you've seen him in?
@@kevinholt7046 you sound so uneducated lol this kid is better then you or a lot of people will ever be
@@lurkwave I never said I was better or people I know are better. It's funny that you say I sound uneducated when nothing in that statement had anything to do with education. So you're telling me this guy is better than Chris Cole or he's better at marketing than Chad muska or Jamie Thomas? I'm not saying it's fair I'm not hating on the guy as a skater I'm 33 years old I barely skate anymore. It's just funny to me that you say I'm an educated and say that this guy is a better skater than me when anything about my skating wasn't even in that statement but yeah I'm an idiot. Go by your 1985 Powell Peralta board moron.
@@enkidude yes it is. Or was. I've seen a couple more sense one of him skating the Vans skatepark and a couple other ones I'm not saying the guy sucks I'm just saying it's not my type of skating that I like I prefer Geoff Rowley and his prime or Chris Cole or p-rod sorry.
I'm addicted to watching Andy skate. Amazing attitude too.
Mind blown, been following Andy for a while. Hes 1 of 1. No one will ever replicate him. His style is HIS STYLE.
I got no idea what planet this kid is from but he is probably the best one on earth right now at riding that useless wooden toy... And the fact that he lives in an ambulance and just cruises around blowing minds and pushing the envelope of skateboarding to a whole other level is so awesome.
Andy is a simple man
whats important to you: "learning new skate tricks"
you're so cool andy
Just an awesome video and a special guy. What a great perspective and just an incredible puzzle solver. LOVED THIS!
This man is incredible. One of the best videos I've seen in a long while.
"What kind of skateboarder are you? - I'm just a skateboarder"
Im just thinking, when is the noveno movie of powel peralta featuring this dude coming out?
What an amazing perspective from such a nice young man. Inspired
Super fun to watch you and great attitude that hopefully rubs off on a bunch of young skaters!
He's on another planet
Dude is so legit.
So underrated! Keep crushing it Andy!
Wise beyond his years. Has an old school flow. The puzzle needs more guys like this.
Intelligent champion
not a casual one
respect
Fantastic, enlightening and unique.
Amazingly INSPIRING! SO much Gratitude! Practicing my barely gotten into nose manuals tomorrow!! I will think of the axis.
Great to see a skater wearing a helmet.
I think he can pull it off. Not many else can.
He is protecting the source of his skateboard genius
Why? helmets are gay
SeagullG why cuz brain damage is cool ?
@@tyronesart name one skater that has brain damage from not wearing helmets
Your rad dude seen you on nka
The soundtrack is spot on... loved every minute
andy is so refreshing :D this guy is inspiring me honestly !
good to have guys like him on that planet.
He's got the soul and talk of the Gonz.
U can see why he's wearing a helmet, to keep his brilliant brain intact
Awesome narrative & skating! Definitely made me want to skate today!🤙
I live in Surrey BC and this guy was a real shredder good to see the world accepting someone with a helmet 👍👍👍everyone should use it
Andy rules!
WTF, and I never heard of him. AA not only appears to be an amazing and humble shredder of almost everything, he's also not afraid to wear a helmet everywhere he smoothly shreds. I need to send AA some HIH stickers. Please let me know how I can arrange get him some HIH stickers. Thanks for posting about this truly unique skater, who isn't like so many sheep rolling along next to each other, pretending to be individuals. Rock and Roll Andy!
