The struggle in your head knowing you can do this trick. Friends backing you, there every second of the way. The anxiety of thinking someone could snake the trick before you. Friends right there in celebration as you alone made the trick. I love skating.

Holy shit, I've never seen someone coming out of a board slide with that much speed. I'm sure there's faster ones out there but he is fkn flying out of the last kink when his attempts make it to the bottom.

he thought it was a shitty boardslide but i think that's what ultimately saved him in the end because he was slowly rotating through the entire thing so he didn't have to focus on leaving the rail properly he was just already there. so sick.

That was a combo... boardslide to rail kiss. I'm thinking thats why he had so much trouble with it as he'd have to go airborne to catch the slide on the last kink. Literally flying for a second.

I remember watching Damn it All and when i saw this trick, i was with a friend and he said out "thats impossible...go back" because he knows this place (its not even a spot). We musta watched Gabriel's ender like 20 times in a row, no cap. The commitment of this dude to land this, 40 hours of eating shit over and over, respect 4ever. Keep this series comin Trasher.

YOU can go to heaven NO MATTER WHAT YOU’VE DONE! (Here’s how!): When a person first becomes a Christian, their entire past is automatically erased and completely forgiven by God! Simple. Yes, You heard that correctly, you will literally NOT be in trouble for a single you did in before becoming a Christian *NO MATTER HOW BAD*. (This includes crime, etc.) So, What do you have to do in order for Jesus to clear your record? All you have to do is believe that Jesus was real, turn from your wrong doings, and start living your life by the Bible! That’s it! So yes, this is a get out of jail free card, Even robbers, gangsters, etc can make it to heaven if they turn their life around and follow Jesus! (Mark 3:28)- “I tell you the truth, ANY sin can be forgiven.” (Except for blasphemy) (Acts 3:19)- “Now repent of your sins and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped away.”
holy shit. I totally smiled when landed it. Best "My War" episode ever.
Dude… I may be a softy… But these my wars are the best, they always bring tears to my eyes. You see the whole battle, you see the struggle, you see the determination, the whole story, and then you get to see the pinnacle moment of why they kept going at it, the expression and emotion on all these skaters faces is literally priceless. Makes me feel like I was there with them cheering them on! Congratulations, that’s the best feeling! And you will always have visual documentation to prove it! Nothing better :-)

Minus Jamie Foy. Jamie's blessed.
Gabriel doesn’t get enough recognition that he deserves.. His parts are crazy and he goes big!
For anyone who’s ever boardslid or has tried to boardslide a thin rail like that, let alone a kinked one, knows just how hard it is. That is one gnarly boardslide.

Boardslides on kinked rails are always fucked. I've been thrown back on a triple kink boardslide rail on the ground at a skatepark that really shook me. I got some minor whiplash from it. I can't imagine taking it to an actual set with stairs.
I'm a simple man!! Thrasher uploads a My War? I fucking CLIIIIICK.
The best part about “My War” is watching them scream and fight through literal blood, sweat, and tears all to finally land it and shrug it off in disbelief
I believe this is his second my war 🔥

Powerfully exceptional production lads, thank you, the deathbed visions part is true, mine will be the abnormally perfect and extra-popped tre flip i did on flat at my favourite spot that one time.
I love this era of Zero. Super gnarly, actual underdogs. Most of them probably have to work jobs, but still produce video parts like this. Fuck yeah

Never giving up is one of many things skateboarding gave me and you can apply that determination into every day life and many things. I maybe tired, hurting, bruised, bleeding, losing, but one thing I know for sure I ain't giving up I'm gonna keep going no matter what it is!! We all have that in us you just need to find it and skateboarding definitely brings that out of you.
I'm not even a skateboarder and I will never not watch a My War video. They're the best thing on KZread.
So much admiration for all the men at War with these badass tricks. There’s something about doing something impossible that keeps us humans coming back for more.
Absolutely the greatest feeling in the world. I can't imagine the physical and emotional tension that would build up after weeks of trying the same trick, but the release and elation when you finally land something like that is very unique to "extreme athletes". Whether it's a skateboard, BMX or anything else. We all know that feeling and keep chasing it.
THIS is skateboarding. The friends, the danger the make. 🤘
I don't skate but love these videos so much. I find the mental/physical battle they face inspiring!.
That was the best board Slide I have seen in my life.👍
This is the absolute best series by far. THIS is what skateboarding is all about. Even if your war is on a much smaller scale, you can relate to what this man went through and experienced
Been to this rail back in the day. I remember seeing it in the Plan B Virtual Reality video and was like “who in their right mind would ever go for that…then I saw it in person and said to myself out loud, WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD EVER GO FOR THAT?!”…well, here we are boys and girls.😤

Amen. Danny Way and Pat Duffy were 100% trailblazers. Took nearly 30 years for someone to nail it down. Unreal.
The speed he’s getting in that rail is wild and to be going that fast for so long while also getting out of it has to be one of the hardest mental battle
Crazy how far Gabbers has come... I had the pleasure of growing up with Gavin in Tasmania... I remember when all he could do was heel flips, noseslides and boardslides.. Spent many weekends and days teaching each other and pushing each other. After a few years watching him grow in confidence and style it was obvious he was gonna be a force to be reckoned with on a plank. Blows my mind if I stuck with skating this is where I'd be. Well deserved Gabbers
"My war" is the most excited skateboarding videos👍👋
The first video i've ever yelled "Fuck yeah!!" at the screen, when he made it. That was one of the gnarliest things i've ever seen on a skateboard. Kudos, man.

i dont even know some of these guys in these my war videos, but i swear i cry every single time.
Probably one of the gnarliest My Wars ever
Best feeling hands down
i literally just showed my friends who arent into skating his damn it all video part like 2 days ago cause i was blown away by it and how little coverage it seemed to get. Then this comes out the universe works in mysterious ways
These My War videos are so inspiring bc the pure determination to succeed is always there. Also the level of joy that everyone feels once the trick is accomplished is just so awesome to see. This has to be my favorite playlist on the thrasher yt channel.
Love watching my war please keep making them
I always get taken by surprise when I get super stoked on this series it’s like I forget how motivational these are until I’m in that moment where I need it the most
I almost cried watching this very touching seeing how determined this guy is
So well spoken. Shout out to Gabriel
this is by far the coolest series on youtube. can't get enough!
This episode was particularly badass. Best My War I think thus far.
Skateboarding is the most beautiful, loving, creative sport. I haven't been in a board in 15yrs but these videos being me back. Those feelings when you hit something in front of your mates is better than everything
This is my favorite of all the my wars, super gnarly
by far one of the gnarliest My Wars. What a fucking legend.
Best series ever- the storytelling is always top notch.
Thrasher is killing it with this my war vibe videos. We all wanna know the struggle and much respect for all these skaters.
That flip in the beginning was gnarly 🤘🏼🤘🏼
We need more of these
Awesome episode. The commitment to be able to keep throwing himself into it after taking so many slams is admirable
Yes gabeee! One of my favorites since a long time
Been waiting for a new my war for awhile now and gabbers doing another giant rail is the greatest gift imaginable
This my be my all time favorite video. Not just in the "My War" series, but on the whole of youtube. I swear... This is extremely deep and inspiring. All the suffering is worth it for the thing you want most. God bless skateboarding. God bless skateboarders. May steel knobs never stand in the way of you and your dreams.
So good to see gabbers getting the recognition he deserves, I remember him crushing crazy rails in slam magazine many years ago
I get so excited when a new my war video is made
So inspiring. This is what skateboarding is all about!
Best episode so far so much MOTIVATION
That euphoric smile at the end is crazy dope !
I love the "My War" edits. To see how much effort and selfhate goes into one trick shows so much more than a whole video part.
love the whole team are like limping to congratulate him... gnarly crew of vets
Best series on KZread
My war is such an awesome segment. Keep ‘em coming please. 🤘🏾😆🤘🏾
The best MyWar Ever!! Dude Sacrificed his hair & then his collarbone for this!!! Also people probably died when that structure collapsed without that pillar!!
I love this series
I'm crying happy tears right now
Ohhhh mannn this is one of the best my wars! Such a battle, good friends, and competition!!!
First the war to make me tear up. I love skateboarding
Love the struggle and the determination. Great f'n episode
This is the feeling we all chase for 🤙🏼 loved this one.
This is just insane and absolutely awesome. Not just an insane trick but a very very interesting story of triumph. I absolutely love this. When he said, "these kids, they don't care", I felt that heat and I understand, it was WAR and VICTORY!
The harder the challenge the greater the feeling of accomplishment once it’s done.
This man has two my wars under his belt and prob some of the gnarliest!!!! Gawd damn that was so sick!!!
My favorite one so far
One of the sickest My Wars yet!!
These are so inspiring
An awesome tale of a worthy war Gabbers is a straight up legend! Commitment personified
So humble !!! Hit that thing so hard ! Very special moments in skateboarding!
Insane boardslide & my war! Really captures the dedication in skateboarding!
the airtime while entering the last segment of rail while twisting his shoulders to hop out on the landing.. wow. such a subtle technicality you´d only get by practicing that totally mental scenario over and over. Sick!
Yesssss. love this series
Skateboarders are so absurdly, wonderfully tenacious. 40 hours of getting wrecked for 3 seconds of footage. I salute you.
Both this dude's my wars are gnarly and shows how damn stubborn as persistent he is. He's that blue collar skater.
best one so far!
Amazing series
Such an amazing story.
This was absolutely amazing
This is a fucking awesome My War!! Great job with this edit. You can feel the struggle, the pain and the joy! Gabriel Summers has a fan for life now, too!
Amazing dedication. Super inspiring!
Awesome spirit in this guy!
That comment about the final make. “not getting into a good slide and feeling it, but kept sliding sounds awesome”. Maybe not getting a comfortable slide was helpful on top of the motivation 💯🙌🏽
That boardslide.. definitely best 1 everrrrrrrrrrr. I've watched this 4 times. I watch it again bout a month. Gratsi""" Gabe 💯💯💯💪💪💪💪👍👍💰💰💰🔨🔨🔨⚒️⚒️⚒️🚬
This is so beautiful and wholesome.
