Is Andy Anderson The Most Versatile Skater Ever? | SKATE TALES
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 июл 2024
- Andy Anderson is the people’s champion: a skateboarder for all seasons who made being an outsider cool. The era-jumping, helmet-wearing skateboarding phenomenon can freestyle like it never went out of fashion, rip monster rails like a mosher, AND represent his country in the biggest contests of them all! Andy represents all sides of skateboarding- but, what's more, he does so in his own signature way.
Undeniably brilliant, unapologetically out there and unquestionably unique, there was no way Skate Tales wasn’t going to beat a path to his door. Madars is in Venice Beach to meet the man they couldn’t ban: ladies and gentlemen, Mister Andy Anderson!

It's funny how Andy used to receive flak from other skaters in the past for being "different" until everyone realized he absolutely RIPS, all while being a genuine and kind soul who lives for skateboarding. It's so good to see him get the attention he deserves.
he still gets flak and it's unfortunate but it's mostly a small minority that think they're too cool to associate with him. they're the corny and lame one's if you ask me.
My only gripe with him is that he's ripped off the 70's stoner hippy vibe, but I'm sure if you offered him a joint he would look for the nearest cop to report you🤣
@@stone-snare i really dont think its a small minority, alot of skaters find his skating corny and tryhard. he doesnt risk injury and doesnt win or even qulify for contests. alot of his fans are scrubs and non-skaters tbh.
@@davidfhth6842 core skateboarding is extremely small and there's an even smaller niche that cares about every single trend and what's cool/not cool. i think the idea that most or all of his fans are non skaters or scrubs is a bit outdated. at one point that was true, but not anymore. when i was at tampa pro the whole crowd was into his skating and i also know people that know pro's that like his skating. even skaters on companies you wouldn't expect like polar.
@@davidfhth6842the dude has skated 30 stair handrails and qualified for the Olympics wtf are you talking about 😂
"I like.. trying to find new ways to skate old stuff, or old ways to skate new stuff"...This is by far the ultimate description of Andy Anderson's skate approach.
Right?! 🤝
@@RedBullSkateboarding totally 🤝
Yes indeed, that’s a quote that will never age
"i just wanna push people to think, rather than just accepting what their given" 11:26 This sentence right here changed my entire perspective of this guy and made me a fan
I love this. If we were all a little more Andy Anderson, the world would be a better place.
Muhammad Ali has a great quote about the idea of the word impossible. What Andy said reminds me of it. Of course, using a helmet is gonna keep him skating and SMART a lot longer.
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
@@juicicles5881 brilliant quote. Wish I could heart react this.
Madars is the perfect dude to skate with Andy. They both have out of the box ideas
Truth!
The best walking alternative!
Thanks for including me in this project 🔥🔥🔥
NKA vids brought Andy on the screen for me! No Andy without NKA in my universe 💪
Because of you we can follow his path, thank you!
You absolutely belong in it. You are part of this whole story!
youre the man
Don't ever change andy. We love you because we see how much you love skateboarding. And that's all that matters. Doing what makes you happy and staying true to yourself. Thanks for all the inspiration and lessons you've given me. Hope to skate with you someday. Best wishes
Imagine is skaters had passion for things that helped others instead of being selfish mentally deranged losers.
You’re gay
They pissed into his helmet. 5:00 Because he wore a helmet and didn't conform to the majority of idiots risking fatal head injury. Love that he speaks about this - doing you and preservering against peer pressure is only achieved by the strong. Go Andy 😊
I love you Andy, big big thanks for letting the skate tales team get a glimpse into your life. You are truly amazing bro. ❤ so so much influence, definitely one of my favorite all time skaters!!!! For realz.
Freestyle, bowl/transition, street and combine all disciplines of skating with video parts, creativity as well as being a competition skater and street skater. I think he embodies all areas of skating and he has a library of knowledge in his brain too he really knows his stuff and history
💯
Mike pulizzi go harder
He doesn’t skate switch enough. Ishod is the epitome of a versatile skater.
As great and unique as Andy is, I agree about him not skating switch enough and also not skating gaps and stairs often.
@@danielmc8385 ishod is cool too big fan of both
Skate Tales episode of Andy is long time overdue but I'm really glad it finally happened
Madars and Andy is a great combo of innovative skaters
Also happy to see Rog in front of the cam! you rock Rog
Agreed!!!! ❤
One of my favorite skaters to watch honestly. Very unique, and Canadian to top it off.
Andy is definitely on another level! He’s such an inspiration I swear! Keep stoking us Andy! You got great Steeze💯
I feel like Andy’s been hiding waiting for his part to come out. Good to see him again!
YES HE IS AND HES SLEPT ON, GIVE THIS MAN HIS FLOWERS. HES TOP TIER
he's hardly slept on tbf. He's one of the most talked about skaters in recent years. plus his own board shapes, wheels etc olympics. He is already a damn legend for real !
Andy is without a doubt my biggest inspiration in terms of skating. Keep crushing dude
I f**kin ❤ Both of these guys
From his new part into this. Just a tremendous night of Andy skating and content. He inspired me to pick up a board for the first time at 28 years old.
He made it look easy and fun. And while it is not at all easy, it’s just as fun as he made it out to be.

@@RedBullSkateboarding love you, Red Bull Skating. -skating grad student
Skateboarding is not easy but so fun! I’m 35 and never landed a kickflip but still have fun just carving and taking hills. Best wishes in your journey!
@@ShinyHubCaps It's the best part of skateboarding though. Carving, pumping and pushing.
Dude keep skating!!! Much love
I just watched Andy’s part last night, and I’ll say like I said then, Andy’s skating is truly different and unique, I’ve been skating for over 20 years, alot of parts that come out, and tricks see on Instagram or at contests, I may not be able to do all of them, but I understand them, and understand how you could do it, Andy’s skating is a different story, I’d say more then 75% of his tricks are ones that literally blew my mind, he defies physics on a board, and he is such a genuine soul, never met him, but from years of watching him on the NKA videos I feel like I know him, it is so lame that people give him shit for wearing a helmet, skating is a creative way to express ourselves through our tricks,style, clothing, and so on, if you don’t want to wear a helmet then so be it, but don’t hate on the next man for protecting his brain, the same brain that thought of all these gnarly tricks and concepts he has, that’s like hating on someone because you wear leopard skin pants and they don’t want to, it’s pointless, the fact that he did not get the recognition he deserve 5-10 years ago is criminal, this dude has been this good forever, and he has only gotten better, so while the rest of you were worried what everyone else thought, Andy has been killing it, and the best part is he not once in my opinion has seemed bitter or resentful in any way, in fact I’ve seen him give props to skaters who most definitely were hating on him, humility is something inside you that can’t be taught, you have to find it within, and Andy is humility in skating form, I could go on and on about Andy, he is gonna be known as the skater who made freestyle skating cool again, while also making every other style of skating look cool, scratch that, he just makes skating look cool, if by some coincidence you read this Andy, you are an inspiration to me and so many other, keep shredding
So much love man thank you for the thoughtful review and comment ❤ I’m so stoked you dug the videos :):):):):):)
It is not just his talent and skills its his entire being that makes people love his skating, Andy is a master of his craft in many ways 👏👏
Yo red bull has been turning it out- dayyyyyyum this is such a good pairing with his part- big ups to maders , hes now the "most roped off" (crob coin) field correspondant in skateboarding
andy needs his own show. a skateboarding historian show.
He can wear a tan sports coat, sip sherry and give us lessons in history. Then shred in said sports coat. It's a classy show
That truck grind was great. Really encapsulates the creative nature of skateboarding
I wish thwg would stop getting andy to defend his style everytime hes on camera. Just watch him skate and respect the mastery. If you have an issue with it move along
been waiting on a new season! thankyou so much Redbull for making more skatetales I love this show! will watch the rest on your website to show appreciation, & never replace Madars until he don't want to be on anymore
🫡💯
2 amazing people and skaters great mini doc
Got the mind beaming, glad to see andy skate i feel like he fits the scene and hope it inspires other aging young men to stay on the board as much as they can!! I know we are all different with style... nice to see somebodies work-out
Andy earned his place in the hall of fame. Not many can say that.
Its about his skating - but its probably mainly about his personality.
Congrats, Andy Anderson!
Dude legit became my favorite skater.
powell should just do a whole kilian and andy video doing freestyle stuff with street obstacles incorporated
Props Andy , keep killing it out there !!🤙👊
I love him. The real skateboarder. I watch every video with him on Nka Vids Skateboarding. And it's good that I subscribe to RedBull
What a kick-off of the season. Rad!
I loved learning more about Andy!
This is so awesome!
Love seeing Andy skate! :3
god damn i love this show
🙌
Man this was fantastic
Andy Anderson, Mike Vallely, Mark Gonzalez and people like them are THE definition of skateboarding
I'd love to see an Andy and Madars world tour video! Their styles blend so well together, especially the way the see the world around them. Skating the spots nobody else would skate, skating how nobody else would skate 💚
Andy is such a creative skater, pretty rad seeing the blended styles - freestyle - street - pools - transitions, etc.. Darkslides to 50/50 impossible out. One of a kind. Awesome video.
This documentary was wonderful. Thanks for posting it!
I love you Roger bagley!!! Shout out old buddies!
i love your skatetales, madars. keep on doing them. stay human !
This was really well done, thanks Red Bull Skateboarding. We need more people like Andy in this world. Kind hearted genius.
It's pretty cool to see how the haters, including myself, got swayed to love Andy Anderson. At first, a lot of people, me included, didn't really get his whole vibe. His unique style and quirky personality made him stand out, and not always in a good way. But as time went on, his insane talent on the skateboard and his genuine niceness started to win everyone over. Andy's skills are off the charts, and he's one of the nicest guys you'll meet. Bit by bit, even the toughest critics, like me, started to appreciate what he brings to the table. Love you Andy
Great stuff as always with Madars!
Damn, I remember when Andy was living in an old ambulance! Crazy how far he has come and I'm so glad he is getting the recognition from the community ❤❤
You know he's gonna destroy street comps when he makes it out of the 90's 😂
This is pretty much the perfect video to explain to my family why Andy is my favorite skater. Awesome mini documentary!
The peoples skater! Just a pure joy & love for skateboarding and it shines through his skating.
Andy Anderson is the definition of a ATV I know it’s already said but still he can do it all pretty much
Andy is the man. A true 1 of 1. Love watching him skate!
Mushrooms for that intro, from Uganda to Japan to Brazil to Iowa to Venice, your our HERO madres, eternally stoked on the skate tales, and it really gives the heart of redbull its shine, it’s not a board with advisers it’s really a conscious group of humans or one leader, it gives you wiings! ❤
My favorite skateboarder ever...got on the board 1986...had to stop 2004, but am still following !
Andy the BEST!
kinda ghey tho
“How to define my skateboarding?”
The title said it! It’s “Versatile Skateboarding”.
The way how Andy thinks, imagine if Red Bull or whoever asked Andy to come up with a Versatile Skateboarding contest. Makes you wonder what will he come up with for that contest.
Been waiting for this opportunity 😊
Andy just has such great flow! A very fluid skateboarder!
Can't wait for part 2, 3 and 4!
His next skate part deserves to be in this HD format.
Mike V probably gets overlooked a little bit when we talk about versatility. He's been skating everything (street, transition, flatground/freestyle) for decades now and has very clearly paved the way for a guy like Andy to come along and be successful.

I’ve always loved Andy’s skating, ever since I first saw him skate. He is one of a kind. He can do it all. He is an ATV skater hands down.
For sure one of the more interesting modern skateboarders who comes up with interesting tricks which definitely shows in the way the thinks about stuff! Glad to see this episode :) would love to see Gou Miyagi and Andy have a duos part/session!
Last clip is the best 😂
Great Episode!
My parents would never let me skate or.l bmx without a helmet. Then I started racing motocross and always wore a helmet.
So for me seeing Andy with a lid on made me respect him 100% and I'm 39 for context
Crazy Wisdom behind the scenes, great companion video.
4:48 I saw Andy Anderson's career end; or himself pancake die on some big redbull vert transition, glad you're still here, and there's like 30 more years ✌️😇🫒
8:32😅
Legend in the making, amazing dude.
Man, this is awesome
A true ATV! Keep doing your thing Andy.
I appreciate the sh!t out of Andy! Personality and pure fun & love for the sport! And when skaters piss into and destroy his helmet it such a weak sign. Shows how insecure it makes a ton of people. KEEP IT UP AND damn keep giving us those creative lines and tricks
The best dude in skateboarding, thank you Red Bull Skateboarding
I love andy Anderson!! ❤
BANGER video
I dont get the helmet bash thing, its safety, leave it there 8:33
The intro got some skate 3 follow mission cut scene love it !
Madars! Love this series brother!
Love this ! Skateboarding in it's entirety is so deep, there is so many aspects of it that are fun but maybe not so "mainstream" if you can label it that way. Andy encapsulates my idea of skateboarding when I think of skateboarding and I love him for that. Helps ofc that he's gnarly and super tech good good too ! Stay rad Andy and Madars, this was awesome.
On a side note: I do skate, and I have had a head injury. A fracture and bleed to the brain I woke up in hospital and remained there for a month. While I did not go through that because of skateboarding Andy is right, wear a lid if you go big or all the time however you see fit. It just makes sense.
Andy is a one of a kind ATV skatemachine!!! ❤
So cool!!
Love the new part but I believe I am enjoying this more. Nice work capturing AA.
What a cool human, who happens to skate also 🤙
Andy is the Man! Met him at les park in NYC too, such a kind person
Andy is and will always be the man and an innovator
Great One!!!
This guy just started popping up on my RUclips, and his tricks are pretty unique and clever.
beautiful vid
The dudes to good and a genuine guy to be hated on. Helmet was a trip at first tho lol 🪖
andy anderson ! inspiring
love it ❤
im glad Roger apears in this
He is profoundly inspiring.
He's awesome. His style and his vibe is just so on.
Damn, Madars' hydrant nose to nollie heel is crazy.
Skate tales...nothing else Madars🤘
I’ve loved Andy since the very beginning. Dudes going to change the sport for the better, just watch.
A true genius on and off board!!!
Those lines on the grip tape! If I were young again, I’d follow his lead for sure…
❤love Andy Anderson. Thank you Red Bull. 🔥🔥
The human hippy jump in the intro 😯
