The genuine mutual respect between Tony and Rodney is the best thing ever

Rodney Mullen is one of the most humble and all around good person. I met him one time when I was a young skater at a small skate park. He was nice to every single skater, spent time talking to all of us, cheered for people that landed a solid tricks, gave trick tips to all of us, gave out free stuff. Mind you this wasn't a paid for event, just bumped into him. He is just a genuine nice guy, that really cares about the next generation of skateboarders. My dad was there and it totally changed his perception of skateboarders (this was before it was mainstream). As well it is something I still remember to this day, 15 years later.

​​@@BAGAKOOS He embodies a lot of traits seen in people with high functioning autism, and that might have been something that helped drive him to focus so intensely on Skateboarding. That could be why he has such an eccentric personality as well. Much love for Rodney, the GOAT.

When I first played THPS and knew very little about skateboarding culture or pro skateboarders, I watched the tapes of all the skaters and was so amazed, but when I got to Rodney Mullen I literally couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Then I go on to find he invented the modern day skateboard and damn near every flat ground trick there is. So I think “wow, this guy probably has every right to be prideful or full of himself for all that he’s done” and then I watch interviews of him and it’s immediately obvious that he’s one of the most selfless and humble people ever, and without a doubt in his field. Give him his flowers while he’s here, he goes up and above the title of legend and let’s be grateful that he was born in the era of film and cameras because there’s no way people would believe what he’s done otherwise.

It was so nice to see Rodney Mullen again. That man remains an inspiration to me as a human being as much today as he was 20 years ago in back in school.

I gave my boards away to the kids in my neighborhood and watched them do tricks I could never imagine doing.

I hope everyone here realises how much of a genius & important figurehead in skateboarding Rodney Mullen is. Back in the day, he was like an actual wizard. He still is. Nobody could even come close to touching him. He's an extremely nice guy, & his passion has always shone through his skateboarding. To see him still being so nice & passionate, considering he is literally the father of street skating, is so wholesome & really reminds you that, if you can find your real true calling in life, you can always be happy.

So clearly pro skateboarders are the nicest, coolest people of all-time.

If you think about it though, very few of these people were making buckets of money like Tony, they’re skating because they love it and have such a passion for it. People that have that much passion are usually pretty great.

Rodney mullen . After years of being a skater and a fan of everyone and plus who have been in the game but truly your story enlightens me the most so glad you found something that you loved and crated a good percentage of the tricks we all use and love today . Much love brudda

Rodney Mullen was always my favorite pro skater to choose in THPS2, always wondered why his stats were THAT low lol I guess in the end it didn't matter since you got to level up the stats the more you progressed 🛹

Seeing Rodney and Tony together is mind blowing. Arguably the best street skater and best vert skaters of all time just having a casual conversation, both legends in their own right.

I feel like the true reason for Rodney’s low stats is making him the most realistic character. He isn’t buffed by stats with any sort of assistance you have to make due with what you have, the true essence of Rodney’s skating!

Only by people who are completely outside skating and only know who Tony Hawk is. To anyone with even casual knowledge of skating though... No, he's definitely not under-appreciated. Rodney is widely known and revered as the superhuman he is.

This was a cool video ,love it.brings back the early 90s so much

I haven't ever played any character besides Rodney Mullen in any of the early THPS games. He is by far my favorite skater. How can you not love the man who invented the Darkslide?

Tony: Why you have the worst stats. Rodney: That's my base form. Btw Darkslide blew my mind back then. Still is
