That was so SICK! People have to understand, this stuff is HARD. And, for them to make it look so stylish and easy is beyond me.

My favourite bit is when he goes up one side and then goes up the other. Only joking but to the uninitiated it's just like watching footballs going back and forth and boring but at least in this you really can see how difficult this is especially when you think most people can't even ride down the street on a skateboard. This is like superhero stuff.

You ain't lying bro Ive always been a street skater but I've been trying vert recently and it's so hard i dont even know how someone can come up with that many diff tricks in a row like that much less land them all to so sick
Some of the cleanest airs I've seen in years!!
That monster 540 kickflip to Indy at about 3:08 was absolutely insane.

Is that what that was? Holy Hell, didn't think that was possible. All the kickflip 5s I've seen are backside or mute.

Smooth, stylish and effortless. 3 minutes 28 seconds of some of the best vert skating I've ever seen.
So smooth
This guy is so good. Watching again.
so nice to see his incredibly ease on those runs. Keep going ED !
Incredible how smooth he's doing it. like is no effort. Gotta love all that hang time. He's literally riding like is a videogame.
It's crazy how you can see he's reached a level of comfort, even if it's just on this ramp or the day or whatever, but he just looks so relaxed with all of his tricks. It's like when you're practicing something deterministic, like a video game speedrun, so the motions start to become automatic, unlike a sport where it's constantly throwing new challenges at you, even with something you've done before. He looks automatic, like not only does he have the run choreographed in his head, he's absolutely 100% sure it's going to go smoothly.

Yes well put! Also, this was him fresh off of an injury so he was extra juiced to skate!
Funny how this run was so sick and the majority of his tricks were all old school, methods, lean, stale fish, mute etc, spins don’t always equal wins and definitely not cool points in my book. Say what you want about the man but that’s why I always appreciated Shawn Whites skating old school tricks and heavily snowboard influenced tricks Old school will never die
He's totally smashing it up 🔥🔥🔥
You don't hear him land and he lands just under the coping almost every time
Edouard Damestroyed it.
Awesome channel and content guys
awesome runs. I'm quietly waiting for vert to make its full blown comeback.

Vert never left but compared to street, a lot of skaters do not have access to vert ramps so the evolution of tricks like in street is not really there.
This video deserves way more likes 👍🏼
Bravo Édouard magnifique style superbe amplitude gros niveau technique le sourire à la George Clooney That else …
Why have I not seen this before? Or ever heard of him? And so many views with very few likes? Those runs are amazing like Jimmy W's level. Just so good!
Dam that vert ramp had tears after this dude was done with it.
Solid-ass run!!!
Incredible
Dude was on a mission!!
Fawking awesome style! \m/
So good up there with Jimmy Wilkins
I love hearing Jason Ellis hyping him up on the mic!
Litterally Like watching a video game. Unreal how smooth that was.
Wow! KUDOS so sick!!
Nice, beautiful clean skating.
Hey there good-looking hope your back on the board LoL rock and roll
Solid runs.
Can they make a ramp ‘see thru’ … like plexiglass.. I think that would be cool!
All the GNAARRRL of the OG pool rippers n some smooth seamless power style.this dude RIPS
Wow!
NON-stop hammers!
I remeber seeing Tony hawk skate at keirl Park maly Australia in the late 90s, there was a skate comp and demo by hawk and other skaters, there was a presentation at a skate shop for comp and everyone left like a bomb scare to go see hawk there, anyway everyone left and my friends and I still there and hawk and the others come out of the back of a van and were like finnaly we got it to ourselves so I ended up skating with hawk. There was a bowl a small ramp and the big ramp, Tony said it was one of the scariest ramps he had ridden because it was inverted, it had the old school roll in the center. Anyway a few weeks later they cut the ramp in half. I always wondered if Tony said something to the local council.
I like to watch half pipe skateboarding with my phone upside to make the tricks look even cooler.
3:10 😬😬😬🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌👏👏🛹🛹👑👑👑
Good God.
Waiting for him to pop a 900
lord jesus have mercy

Then you surely did miss the 80s/early 90's - some dope vert skaters like Chris Miller and Danny Way. Danny Way's stuff makes this run look he's just warming up. Research some Danny Way - he was ahead of his time. Not to say that Edouard is bad but Danny was already on another level, even when he was a kid. He was one of the 1st skaters to try dangerous tricks on a mega ramp.
Nothing like an 8 foot Madonna.

Body jars are so uncomfortable to do i can't watch them. Scary.
between Jjimmy Wilkens and Edouard Damestoy you might as well not even try or get out of bed for that matter
Only someone like that can destroy any other skater
Why does he remind me of Bucky?
I have never even had a chance to learn half-pipe or much at all to do with skateboarding which is sad because I'm pretty good to be fair. Just sad I'm going to die without even learning to skate half-pipe but they say there's a heaven that is a half-pipe right?
Ripper
One thing I have always loved about the Skate Lifestyle is the Music. If you listening closely you can hear Angel Of Death from Slayer in the background and that is AWESOME!!!!
He did mostly regular tricks but it looks more spectacular because compared to the others he added the height to it and it looked smooth, some sketchy but for the most part very smooth. This is why Tony became a legend. He was not known for rad style or height of his tricks but he invented some of the most technical tricks ever and executed them like it's nothing.

sick. whoa. my like is 700, my comment is 70. cool.
This is easy... .. to watch..
Mind blowing, but dont compare him to a 52 year old Tony Hawk, who was in his prime 25 years ago.
Every ody loves a rodeo snowbro front flip 540 thing.. but near silence for a tweaked stale. Smh. Y'all don't even know what yer looking at.
