So 8 years later and this is still my favorite skateboard video on youtube.
Absolutely ive sended it to my girlfriend seconds ago after she showed me some longboard dancing videos 😅👌
yep.....kills me
Me too
Sameee
@@dylusional419 soo even 3 more years later this is still my favorite
Watched this when I was 13 and now I’m 23, time flies. Always revisit this video for some reason. Beautiful
Same, I was about 14, now I'm 25. I think its something about the escapism of it
Both film maker and skater are genius. LOVED the time-traveling transitions.
This is not only skateboarding! This is pure art.
The video is. The shooting, the music, the setting. The skating is still just doing tricks.
Andrei Petrosyan You need a better understanding of what Art actually is.
yeah art is an expression of creative skills through any form in case you arent a skateboarder tricks like these are considered art they are different and creative not like every generic trick out there
Andrei Petrosyan you're a knuckle dragger if you think this isn't art. Try being creative sometime.
herbie747 - calls me a knuckle dragger -
- goes on my videos to comment "gay" -
Genius.
2019 and I'm coming back to watch this amazing video
gnarly441 dude right there with you.
And yet again.
@@GeorgeGrydkovets never gets old
Dec 27th and here i am 😭💪🏾
I just came back still as dope as the 1st time watching it
There is something so beautiful about this, I get all teary eyed every time I watch it.
Don't let Patty find out😳
I've never seen a skate video like this before. You took the video genre to another level. Big thumbs up, bro.
This video is amazing Eugene Baldovino ! The video is well done on all ends and dude skating is SICK!
+herpderpmonkey he didnt invent freestyle
They used this song in a new Samsung commercial and I immediately remembered this video and how it made me want to cry the first time I saw it.
You're not lying, when he runs up and starts going crazy with the tricks on the ledge while the music is at the peak. Shits just beautiful
It’s 2023 and this is still the greatest skate video to exist
My heart aches every time I watch this, it's just timeless. The overlay of what was and what is is a grim reminder of time's power. On the short list of my fav parts of all time skating.
2020 and I'm still watching this piece of art...
I remember watching this for the first time 10 years ago with some of my best friends after tripping on shrooms at the beach all day on vacation. We were all coming down and this was literally one of the most beautiful, poetic, artistic videos I’ve ever seen! It still stands up today!
❤️!
The quality of the skateboarding and videography of this video is mindblowing. Every ten seconds I was astounded when I thought it had already peaked, and somehow got even better
10 years later and im still watching this. Favorite skate video of all time
I cannot click the thumbs up button hard enough to express just how impressed and amazed I am by this video. I have been enjoying Killian Martin's skate videos for quite some time now, but only recently did I stumble upon this gem. I love Killian's skills without question, and having that presented in such a well produced video is icing on the cake. Thank you so much Killian Martin and Brett Novak for your creativity, talents, time, and effort, and for sharing this video with all of us.
Dude your films are freaking awesome, and the music is well thought out.
+vince rappa much appreciated man!
My buddy Pat Sullivan showed me this like 6 years ago. It moved me then and it still does now. A true skateboard video piece, bravo.
The choice of location, coupled with the amazing music and scenes from the past, brings this to a whole new level of skate videos and shows the true talent and passion of the skaters for their craft not to mention yourself as a film maker. I love this entire series very much and I hope you will continue to bring us more magical skaters skating in more magical locations. Incredible stuff!
Damnnn, I remember watching this as a kid and thinking this was the coolest video ever. It still is!
One of the best skateboarding video ever. Perfection skateboarding and film.
Other than the most amazing skills on a board I’ve seen, there’s something so beautiful about this man skating in this abandoned amusement park. Where people, laughter, love and fun have all left this place, this man comes to appreciate all its crevices, edges and imperfections, bringing back the fun and life to this place in his own way. Like a metaphor for loving someone after their heart had remained broken for a long time
This is one of the best music videos ever. The way it syncs up is near perfect. Especially from 1:16 on when that board hits the ground it's epic until the end.
Bret, perfect, reminded me of master Rodney Mullen in Almost's video ... Soundtrack, sensitivity, maneuvers, creativity. Congratulations! I really liked this video!
breathtaking
Born in 1991 I have lived in the Mojave desert my whole life. When Rocka Hoola Water Park opened 1999 I was there the first day and was there every spring and summer up til its closing in 2004.
This video is amazing! From Killian Martin being as badass as Rodney Mullen, to the cinematography that myself and my uncle (a once professor for the State Art Institute and 20+ year tv executive) find impressive to say the least.
You both have more than outdone yourselves.
I look forward to you both developing as Skaters and Filmmakers and seeing your future work.
Thank You for the nostalgia that of my childhood and of many others from the, "Expansive Mojave Desert."

I first watched this video yeaaars ago and thought it was just one of the best edits ever because of the time travelling aspect of it. Just a couple of weeks ago, I passed by rock-a-hoola and had to go explore it a little which I've wanted to since first seeing this. Seeing the difference in what it looks like today versus in the video versus in the old footage they edited in was such a trip. Every surface is covered in graffiti now. There some good pieces up out there and Swampy (infamous train tramping artist) left his mark in 2017.
This is one of the best skate videos I’ve ever watched & keep coming back to watch. It’s magical, mystical, eerie & amazing all at once. So basically my favourite skate vids include this & everything with Rodney Mullen in it.
Wow, I can’t believe this was filmed 10 years ago! This is really amazing quality for a video that old, I just found this and thought it was recent. Also, it was beautiful to see the visions of what the park used to be in the past compared to what it can be used for now (or ten years ago) and the beauty of repurposing into something new. 🥳🙌✨
the concept here is both a beautiful one and a depressing one. the adventure created by the skater in an otherwise abandoned location is beautiful, while the past glory of the amusement park left for ruin offers a sad statement about how all things have their lifespan but eventually die. the soundtrack accentuated these emotions exceptionally. i'm blown away.
Favorite videos of all time
This is why I love skateboarding.
What does this guy eat?!. This man is amazing!
Reminds me of the old Rodney Mullen
You mean the young Mullen :P
This video cures cancer. MAJESTIC.
*So 10 years now…and still my fave skate video :]
10 años increíble parece ayer , grande Killian , grande Patrick por esta obra musical.
❤️❤️ lo mismo digo
Modern freestyle!
This reminds me why I skate.
Damn that was filmed and edited so well!
The song is called Adventures in Your Own Backyard if anyone was wondering
Beautiful!!
Great video, edit, music, ...great ride +++
Rodney would be proud.
i used to not understand freestyle skaters when they get annoyed whenever someone mentions rodney. and i just realized why. every single freestyle video you'll see in the comments "rodney would be proud" its literally everywhere.
@@_Maxten eh, chill with the pretentiousness. Rodney Mullen is a RIDICULOUSLY amazing mogul that we're only learning to appreciate as the days go on.
as someone who's watched interviews with him since "Rodney Mullen vs Daewon Song 1" (I own the VHS tapes) he would be so proud
@@dylanherron3963 Rodney is my fav skater. i have his autographed pro model on my wall. I'm not being pretentious, its just an observation. yes, he would be proud, but we get it
Just heard this song on the New SAMSUNG commercial I had to turn around like......... YALL LATE!!!!!! good shit tho.
faaack I was singing the song all day going where the hell do I know this from ? haunted me til I remembered this old video
.love it as much as when I first saw it years ago.
Idk how I ended up here but I’m not even going to argue it, what a video
looks like 4 months of work in a 4 minute video. wonderful.
Siempre vengo a ver este video cuando esto bajo de animo impresionante como pasan los años y aun conserva su magia.
fuck i really wanna ride an abandoned waterpark in my life
I'm googling the fuck out of it right now lol
Menudo crack Kiliam Martín... This si the boss...
I watch this each time I'm stressed out over something and it brings me great relief each time. Thank you for sharing this...
After all these years still a masterpiece....
Damn still remember Rock-A-Hoola water park
I've really taken a liking to this vid!
buena música, buen sitio para patinar y el mejor eskater del mundo para mi y mucha más gente este mundo que es un pañuelo. Este hombre es y será mi héroe y ídolo del skate hasta el fin de mis días
This is art.
One of the most amazing skate videos i ever seen. It's gonna be at least 4 years since i saw it for first time and it's still masterpiece
i no the song adventures in your own back yard by Patrick Watson 😈
What is the song name??? I personally love it!
Patrick Watson - Adventures in Your Own Backyard
I was thinking last night.. I wonder if anybody has ever done a primo handstand.....this is my answer.............. this is amazing
I guess you've never seen rodney mullen..
Yea bro a shitload of people have :)
I've watched this so many times over the years. One of my favorite videos on the internet.
YES THIS VIDEO!THE NAME KILIAN MARTIN! I remember it clearly, i was 15 yrs old who live in a very poor state in a country like india. I stumbled upon this video and that is the day i discovered skateboarding. Its was an unreal experience seeing this video for the first, i never knew things like this exist. At that time i never in my life thought i could do anything close to that. Fast forward 9 yrs, here i am living in the best country i never even imagined i would, thanks to my parents. I moved to dubai 7 yrs back,dubai really changed my life. Finally i could experience the foreign culture and the first thing i bought was a skateboard. Never got off it since then. This video was the reason i even got to know about skateboarding and ofcource kilian martin too. I was searching for this video soo long now.i can rest easy now haha.
I'm going to get yelled at for saying this. Beautiful filming, and great skating. But there was an entire water park at their disposal, and they filmed a bunch of freestyle flatground that could have been filmed anywhere. I wish I had seen more creative use of the spot. just my thoughts.
James Fantom not much left so i dont see how they would do slides when there werent any
James Fantom Yeah definitely just your thoughts.
I vote that Kilian Martin is best skater in the world.He may not be best at pure street or freestyle but he is the best at the sport it self.
Check out Rodney Mullen, he set the freestyle into motion :)
Nunkima GR Son He is terrific, but... I suggest you take a look at Rodney Mullen.
But he doesn't skate anymore does he ?
Nunkima GR Son How does that make sense Nunkima. You said he isn't the best at pure street or freestlye. So he's not the best at what he does. Yet somehow he's the best skater in the world?
Yup
This is the nastiest skate video I've ever seen
yet another one of Brett's videos i come back to every year. brilliant on every level that can be conceived of.
The best skateboard video ever made. Music and motion go so well together. THE masterpiece.
He's the next Rodney Mullen
2016 anyone?
+Lost Ganado yeh
The kids good but he is no Rodney Mullen. go watch a couple Mullen Videos and then come back and this wont be quite as impressive. Still very impressive though. I just prefer watching the master.
Hate to break it to you mate, as good as rod is, and I do love the guy - Kilian still has a few tricks Rodney has never pulled off.
Jay Court He's also like 20 years younger.... just sayin.
The skating is only a part of what makes this video great.
Rodney and Killian are my favorite skaters! Of course Rodney invented almost everything, but Kilian is also very ingenious... and skates so steezy, too. Both make as if it was easy. The have absolute control of their boards... simply amazing! Despite Rodney not leaving much to invent, Kilian always finds new tricks to be performed. I wish I could skate like either of them. Saying one is "better" than the other only demonstrates ignorance.
Rodney is a legend but this guys got the creativity that rodney never had and he does not skate anymore i think
Skating videos have come so far from just raw footage with some thrash metal or hip hop in the background. This video is amazing
Brett this is still one of the best edited and choreographed videos I have ever seen. Perfect song, perfect setting and perfect timing at so many different parts. Well done to all involved.
Sorry for my english...
I m almost blind, i will be totally in few years. only to say that your shorts films are for me a joy, the joy yo always see something, your poetry...
thank you so much
man ! that was a well done video
Almost exactly 10 years ago, this was one of the skate videos playing in the background of every single party I hosted. Coming back to see it again blows me away. Absolutely stunning in every way!
ive lost count how many times ive watched this........its not just his fantastic innovative skating..its the whole film..great to see skate films moving forward...not a fish eye lens and a hiphop track in sight!!!!.......thank you thank you for brett and kilians creative gift
8 years later and this video still gives me goosebumps. People keep comparing every freestyle skater to Rodney, who obviously is the GOAT. Rodney had all his stuff down on lock and created so much for skating. He had a precision like no other. But watching Kilian is like watching a dancer expressing themselves to the fullest extent. Kilian isn't worried about precision or competition; he's just expressing himself and being as free as he can possibly be.
Amazed every time I watch, that goes for anything killian martin can do on a board.
This is my most favorite short movie if not ever then of this year at least - I'm addicted to Patrick's music, I love the perfection of Kilian's performance, adore Brett's great, bright camera and cut ...the scenery - awesome
Yes Novak!!! Beautifully edited and presented.
As much as I love skating, I have never seen anything like this and you showed the art and beauty of skating.❤️❤️❤️
this is one of sickest skate videos i have ever seen. great job on the production. the 4 min production time of this video is just as satisfying as the entire cut of round 3
These videos that brett novak does with kilian martin are just incredible!
2022 and I’m coming back to watch this
Holy crap. That's some incredible skating. Not to mention some truly breathtaking filming/directing. Just, wow.
This has been living rent free in my head since I first saw it on vimeo in 2012, great stuff
I do miss the short film days of vimeo, kind of gives the flashbacks in the video a sort of meta-textual meaning by age
The apex of skating and skate film creativity. It’s a blessing to watch something this good and revisit year after year 🙏🏽
Found this skater, channel, video and song about 2 years ago, and loved the crap out of it. Coming back this makes me feel really happy and nostalgic even thought it was only a few years.
This is by far the best skating video i've ever watched! keep up the good work man.
there is a sitka video at a mini ramp in the midle of a pine forest, i dont know the name
dang. i love the transitions from past to present. realy changes the feel of the video.
I used to go here in the summer when it was a waterpark. Great video.
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SKATE VID I'VE EVER SEEN...AND LOVE KILLIAN MARTINS STYLE!!!
Still one of the best skateboarding videos to date, excellent edit and captures.
wow, i remember seeing this 2 years ago! Amazing!
incredible cut, Brett Novak's camera work/post work is really awesome, awesome content too.
Gotta give that director/cameraman some respect too! I love it when people match up the bgm so perfectly with the changes in the visuals, it's one of my favourite techniques when I make a short film.
Omg loving the abandoned water park! Such board such skate
Seriously creative skateboarding, beautiful setting, brilliant camerawork...omg
2022 and I still haven't forgot about this video. Well done
Time goes by so fast…I saw this years ago and now I’m here, still amazed and inspired by this in 2022.
All these years later still my favorite skate video.. wow the nostalgia
This may be the greatest audio/visual combination we have ever seen
Bro........your movies and Kilian's skating bring tears to my eyes ! The visual is magnificent, the music you roll is INCREDIBLE ! Quite frankly your short films with this wonderful young man (Kilian) are the best I've seen since I found Animal Chin (MANY YEARS AGO, WHEN IT DEBUTED). Please keep up the incredible work..............It is ALL Magnificent. And also please keep working with this amazing young man. No wonder he is with Powell, he oozes style, grace and class....... THANK YOU ;-)))))
