Rodney is an eccentric genius. He doesn't say things that he thinks will "sound good", he just speaks from his heart, all the time. The reason he sounds so deep and emotional about everything he says, is because he is deep and emotional about his thoughts, at all times. For the godfather of street skating to have that much passion for his craft, his friends, and life in general, knowing who he is as a person is humbling, and reaching his level of compassion and intensity is something I strive to accomplish day after day. Rodney's weird. But, he's the best kind of weird.

The only bone of contention is that you referred to Rodney Mullen as the “Godfather of Street Skating.” I consider him more the “Godfather” of Technical Skating. Even considering all he’s done on a skateboard since late 1991, I’ll always think of him as the freestyle skating savant first, then the World Industries first mate, then the born again street skater Plan B darkslider, then the video game avatar, then the skate doc talking head, and finally the TED talking elder statesman.

It bothers me that this generation has a lot of guys that rip on Rodney because "his style sucks".... his style is unique by todays standards for sure, but the fact of the matter is he invented half the tricks they try to "steeze out" so I'm going to say he can do it however the fuck he wants. He's one of, if not the, most genuine and passionate people to ever step on a deck and has contributed more to modern street skating than almost anyone. On pure, natural talent Daewon is probably better... but in terms of impact and straight up mastery of skateboarding there's no one that touches Rodney.

The bar is much, much higher than it was back then but Daewon and Rodney were so far above the bar that it took 15 years for everyone else to catch up. I put Daewon in that same category with Koston and Mullen in that if there was a game of skate to determine the fate of mankind I'm picking one of them because they can first try shit no one else would even think of doing in the first place.

Aloha Daewon, I love you and your skateboarding. It is a GodSending Creation. Keep it up. I am 65 year old woman who just bought me a second hand longboard to try today. What an inspiration you are! Love you. Take care. 💕💕💕💕

35 years skateboarding has been a part of my life and no one has ever been more fun to watch than Daewon.

Wouldn't be an Almost video though... however they could do Almost Vs Thank You - Round 1

I've watched this video so many times... great job Transworld!

I met Daewon at a demo in 94 or 95 and he could not have been nicer. He sat with us and just talked. At the time he was an amazing skater. I had no idea that he would become arguably the best skater ever. I know most people give that credit to Rodney, who was also incredibly nice every time I met him as well as the most innovative, but Daewon transcended to a whole new level.

Daewon's syle is effortless. He's so smooth and makes everything look so simple. Like he's not even trying. The man is a legend.

“well... i guess it’s just us” choked up when rodney said that. a true testament to the legend named daewon. don’t ever change.

Rodney & Daewon most technical skaters in history . So fun to watch them !

43:00 the feels bruh, the feels.

Shit is crazy, I'm a 41 year old guy getting teary eyed watching a documentary on one of the best skateboarders in the galaxy while listening to another one of the greatest skateboarders in the galaxy pay homage to him while getting teary eyed as well. Now I'm gonna go meet up with some homies to skate. Thank you skateboarding❤

Rodney says it all: "yeah I get choked up because there's no one I'm more proud to be associated with". And I get choked up now.

Was able to meet daewon while he was in Hawaii. Extremely humble guy and just a joy to be around and talk story

Rodney has so much empathy that overwhelms you

"daewon, what's up? you're skater of the year!" "what? are you sure?" "yeah you want me to give it to Sheckler?" "no no no no" LMAO

Classic phelper... 💯❤️

Grew up loving Daewon/Mullen! They are are the best!

I still remember my dope af DECA board with the cutout logo on the grip. Probably my all time favorite board. Suffered a traffic fate under a random cars tire 😢

Rodney and deawon are a prime example of what skateboarding is all about. just enjoying it with people you love and pushing yourself and each other. I'm lucky to have grown uo watching these guys skate and progress. I remember going to blockbuster as a kid and getting the 411vm tapes and all the other videos my parents would get me.

Daniel Castillo is so funny man XDD "He can get a cover with skating a leaf" I died right there

He cracked me up throughout this thing. I wanted the video to cut over to him more. Some good Daniel Castillo moments: 6:18 Kareem said he was black. D'won. 7:49 Shiloh was supposed to be there. Kareem didn't call him. 16:34 27:33 30:12 34:56 39:50

After finally getting to watch this today from start to finish I actually got teary eyed, couldn't be a better person. Not to be tha name dropper but years back I spent a week w/Daewon an Jody Morris, skating every day and the old World park at night after jus those 7 days for years after if I saw him he was the nicest most humble dude. Congrats Daewon Song!!

Daewon is revolutionary. He’s legendary. He gave an Asian boy like me, someone I could look up to & someone I could relate to. Someone who looks like me. But skateboarding in a whole has always been about acceptance regardless of color or ethnicity. Skating has always about inclusion of ALL races. And at 44 years old, IM STILL A SKATE FANATIC even if my body isn’t able to keep up lol. Peace y’all. ✌🏾 PS- And Marc Johnson is a legendary as well. ✌🏾

same dude , you put my thoughts into words

At a time where very few things in the world move me, I came back to this and shed a few tears. Thank you.

I stopped skating about 9 years ago... Was a massive fan of Daewon when I was a kid. This video has me wanting to get back on a board again.

The t puds long ass tail slide part of this documentary was too much for me 😂😂😂

Finding out that my 3 favorite skaters Campbell, Mullen, and Song all found and skated together naturally is fucking sick.

2nd best skate video ever. Rodney Mullen vs Daewon Song Round 2. This is really inspiring. I'm a 40 y/o ex street BMX rider and skaters were always who inspired me. This really REALLY makes me want to get back out there.

Ha that white power ad was a clever idea. Not sure it would fly today

The 90's had it's perks. No one cared about what we did back then except for other skaters. Most the time we were seen as wasting our lives. Now it's a huge industry that is excepted. Crazy ride

Yeah it wouldn’t but I’d still do it! Because it would be real deal attention to whatever your speaking on. But I wouldn’t use it lightly at all.

I think the concept of a white power ad surrounding minority skaters would be even more successful in today's climate honestly. The irony would be a lot more easily picked up, and they did mention that the ad was controversial in the video. Probably succeeded more off shock factor than positive attitude towards it.

different times different vibes, the 90's was "the end of history" everyone was in some delusional bubble after the fall of the soviet union until 9/11

Mullen and song has me in the feels, dang....More respect than what I already have for them

Holy shit i was not ready whatsoever for the emotions that came along with watching this amazing piece of work on a man who forever changed skating. I remember being 9-10 years old & seeing his Skate More part & I couldn't even fathom doing some of the tricks (if any) that he was pulling off so seamlessly. He immediately jumped to the number one spot as my favorite skater & he will FOREVER remain up there with the likes of Danny Way, Chris Cole, Tony Hawk, Andrew Reynolds & Geoff Rowley. I don't skate as much as i did in the past, but the influence from Daewon always resonates with me to continue to push the limits of what's possibly & how much creativity you can channel within yourself. I am forever grateful for him & his existence in my life. Thank you RoachFM

been a daewon fan since day one

So glad I grew up watching daewon and rodney and all them other 90s skaters.

That was really magnificent. Skateboarding loves Daewon.

This documentary was very beautiful and special. Thank you for putting this together and sharing it with us

I could listen to Rodney Mullen talk for hours, so much passionate and intelligence. He always provides special insight.

Born in 1987. Started skating in 99. Daewon and Rodney have resonated with me through out my whole adolescence to where im at now as an adult. In a way i felt ive grown with them. They both hold a strong part in my heart and my skating Journey. Wanna thank both of you all for the the video parts though out the years and my life. SKATE FOR LIFE!
