HAHAHAHHAHAHAH so fckin true man

Aaaaaaa)

😂😂😂😂😂

I was literally scrolling down to comment "Tony Hawk Pro Skater button masher in real life"

Was about to leave the same comment

I'm 39 just starting skating again since almost 20 years

Fully agree, he is the Rodney of the new generation. Those guys just have it..... Masters of balance on a skateboard, The natural flow state they're constantly in. It takes a special kind of person to be on this level and we dont get very many of them in a life time.

You look like Tony Hawk

@@Stephen_Viele seems to me he does a mixture of Rodney & Mike V .. it’s pretty sick fr .. I like how he incorporates each style to create his own really.. or at least that’s my opinion..

💚

Get it buddy!!!!

🔥🤘🔥hello yeah,keep at it,I been sk8ting 30 yrs and still can't do a smooth proper k.f.,🤣🤣🤣never let them wheels stop spinning 🔥🤘🔥

Hellz yeah!!🔥🤘🔥stupid spell check

I look at it this way: his helmet is his armor. He put's it on when going to battle. Plus it's going to help his branding as well and many opportunities for selling his own helmet brand (if he isn't already). Oh and grats on the kickflip!

congratulations dude! this is a kick ass thing to read 3 years later. i hope your still shreddin out there somewhere

He answers : yes

"So what kind of skater are you? " 2:00 "freestyle street downhill"

I liked the comment then I read the last bit that made me cringe so you're down 1 like

Jakob Brown why he just said that he has respect for him lmao

Geno lol right??

Go skate dude!

Andy made me grab my old ps1 and play tony hawk 1 and 2 again haha! I wish I could skate irl but I think I'm too old now to start. I'm 37 and I remember having a hard time learning to ollie when I was like 17 and so never learned to skate unlike some of my friends meh.

@@Tubularm8 I'm starting again at 46 get a board we are a long time dead.

Same here. 31 and a father now. Going to the skatepark in the morning to do my best and have some fun

I am 55- makes me want to pull board out- clean off the dust..

Nah. He’s just an uncool scaredy cat and so are you 😂

I feel like skatebaorders would rather quit than having a stupid helmet on lol

@@wiijiifit3286it's cool to be safe.

​@@Tar.o Imagine giving a fuck about looking cool over protecting your brain. Caring what others think about you is the most conformist/non-skater thing I can think of.

@@Algernon7 True, but most skaters probably think it looks dumb themselves, and would probably not wear it either if society told they were dumb for not wearing it

I was thinking the same thing!!!

Happens all the time man, to everyone tbh. You don't know how hard something is until you're good enough to realize that you're super bad compared to people like andy.

I do longboard dancing and what I've noticed is often times it seems like people feel rude watching or staring, especially if you miss a trick or whatever; a lot of people (particularly the young crowd) just don't want to come off as weird

It’s because he’s in Canada, it’s wild after Covid the Canadian people literally quit paying any attention to anybody no matter what they’re doing. I lived there before and after Covid it’s Wild how much the people changed. People changed everywhere but especially in Canada and the other countries that pushed the BS heavily

NPCs bro…

Same! I was like, uh . . . Primo . . . Manual? Or . . . What the . . .

@@anthonygamez5497 primo slide u fuckin tardass

@@gutwounds That definitely wasn't just a primo slide. His wheels had to be turning to go that far. It was like a primo manual. Dont be a dick asshole.

@@gutwounds Tardass is strangely enough the perfect description of you.

@@gutwounds is it time for ur medication

@Fralorgrafon aaaaahh!! Thanks!

well said

I thought I'd lost my shit at the Primo downhill, then he does the one wheel manual!!! WTactualF!!! I must try this crazy shit

A lot of influence from Mullen and the old Bones Brigade videos. I've always loved both. 😁

Couldn't agree more, swear he might be Rodney's longlost son 😂

I was going to say the same thing. This is the best skate video ever. I watch it like 3 times a year.

48 year veteran of the skate scene starting in So Cal. Agreed and this film is aging well. If there is anything better it is Andy's Powell video. Video is outstanding and the music is done by Andy and a friend (The Keyboarders).

@@55bolts is that part out on yt?

This.

This video brought a tear to my eye fr

More like 70's, 90's, 2010's in my opinion. I'd like to be as good a skateboarding nerd as him one day. 😁🤷🤔🤷🤔

@@kendoglarson5419 Watch some of Mullen's freestyle competitions from the 80s. Andy DEFINITELY channels some of those vibes.

I agree 100%. This guy makes skateboarding a pleeasure. No matter what your tricks are, pleasure riding only. An extra plus for helmet and gloves! (Excellent short film!!)

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

So fucking true. Skills =/= Creativity but Creativity = Skills

Christopher Santiago no bullshit

Nah hes from the past he skates more traditional

Add a big chunk of Mike vallely and a squirt of Natas Kaupas too!

Yup I've only seen rodney do that kind of ish right there man 1:43. Wow he's got it down

You should see him skate bowls

artdamage0 can't forget Mike valley

He also kills bowls and ramps too.

I guess u have no idea what u talking to hhhh

@@Thepirateadventure he's right.. you're probably the one who doesn't know what hes talking

Blessure richie jackson use some kind of style firster than he on his videos so whos right

@@Thepirateadventure you are stupid as fuck, sorry. go troll somewhere else

1:45 I was hired as a stunt double to do this bit

Ever*

Absolutely, was blown away

lots of dog town tricks-early mid seventies street stuff.. mixed with new.

@@Jerichocafe1 yeah bro he does some freestyle Mullen stuff...out of nowhere does a fuckin NATAS SPIN on the fire hydrant....has all the grinds down like fuck bro.

.. william spencer ?

Don't forget that Natas hydrant spin

Andy is a real national treasure

Yeah Andy flows like water when he street skates, almost like you can’t predict his line etc. Rodney is the Goat, and flows more like the supreme technical android or wizard.

Facts. No other current day pro gives my content as much love as Andy.

Nka vids has a bunch of dope clips with him too

Those haters just want to see the world burn. This was one of the best shorts i've seen in a long time.

That people mean Dis i Like

I first saw him with braille too what an amazing guy it was fun watching him skate with Aaron and the gang

The only reason I could think was the cheesey music and filming like it's some Tom Hanks PG movie. It worked perfectly though.

Have you coasted yet if not its time.

@@abcdefhgty mate, i bought a set up and skated.

@@tykewando nice dude! keep on skating!

@@tykewando yo same. Man I missed that feeling bro.

I am 29 and recently started skateboarding. I came into it as a yogi, and yoga has grounded me with a confidence to get into skating that I may not have had otherwise.

I think the videographer saw that too, all the water shots, he rides like a raging river u feel

That army green helmet is actually pretty cool looking. Like he's some skating soldier haha

It's smart, more people should.

@@Theogvineofthedead Yeah and fingerless gloves. Who cares how dorky you look. It's about being safe at all times and respecting disabled people. I wear safety boots and a hi-vis vest.

And splash some yellow dye on it ;)

About time!!!! Maybe the skaters are gonna wake up and use their head (helmet) and join the other extreme sports that have made helmets a part of the equipment (gear). You will never find a skilled skier, snowboarder or extreme cyclist that don't use helmets anymore, today its more accepted to do these sports with a helmet than without.

Fck yea

So true 🔥

For sure!

A good video makes you want to skate ....this makes u wanna skate

@@CapFalcon voll Cooll sketen

hahaha. ich hab grad gedacht. Mensch, der jonny. Dem müsste man das schicken für seine tricks of Serie haha. Ah. Er hats schon kommentiert. Feier deine Arbeit.

honestly I was watching this thinking he probably did 90% of these tricks first try. he's insanely good

@@BeefGeneral He's a wizard.

As the man himself says: "First try; only try".

Mad skills. Such Board control. It's insane.

@@thetruth9952 disgustingly awesome 😀

relatable

1:45 I was hired as a stunt double to do this bit

I immediately felt the same way having only just now discovered the video. This really has it all from a good song choice to great videography and most importantly GREAT DIRECTING! Seriously, you can tell this guy understood what his subject was about and picked the soundtrack and the editing style to fit Andy and best showcase his personality as well as his talent. Honestly this is a bit of a masterpiece in my opinion 👌

Same, couldn't describe it better

Don't we all

🙏🙏🙏

Don't forget Jackson.

more like Natas style

@@NihilistGhost I'd pay to see Richie Jackson and Andy session together.

Me too :-)

I'm 56...started in '75. When he went into those spacewalks and then threw some 360's, super smile. Best I ever pulled was 4.5 360's and an old school nose manual half a suburban street block. Don't get me started on the old school method of a kick flip...... ;)

here here. I'm 41 also, skated since 9 :) I'm from Slovenia and had the chance to meet Andy while he was touring europe this year. So chilled guy and extra accessible... top skater!

I’m 42 & started skateboarding again when my son came around to it. I wish I’d have kept with it. I can skate, but I can’t do any of these trick & yeah, I got major respect for those who can.

I’m 38, skated since I was 12. I agree with you 100%. My new favorite skater! He is a smart kid, so thankfully he wears a helmet. This was refreshing to watch.

I'm 6 years old, from Croatia. :) Started skating when I was 2. My dad wants me to go to school, but I ain't stupid. School is for pussies. Sorry dad, I am about to become a pro skater like Andy

Because it's beautiful. I get a sense of pride every time I watch it. Proud of a local legend, Andy Anderson... but it also shows my home so beautifully, and it makes me so proud to live in such a gorgeous place.

Because after 25 years we cant even ollie to save our ass!!

You’re wrong about that lol

@@unclesam997 Explain dude?! Pls....

@@KPark-hn8jf If you’re into skateboarding at all you know that there are much more creative skaters than Andy Anderson and much more artistic skaters. Guys like Evan Smith and Madars Apse (or even like Louie Barletta) are much more creative. Then guys like Dylan Rieder, Austyn Gillette or if you want transition guys Karl Berglind, Curren Caples, Ronnie Sandoval (Jimmy Wilkins needs to be here although vert and transition are somewhat different spheres) who just do stuff that’s beautiful. Honestly Andy Anderson seems kind of gimmicky to me. He does do some cool stuff but he’s not at the level of creativity, style, and difficulty that a lot of other guys are at, and it seems insulting to say that others are athletes while Andy is an artist when he’s less creative and visually appealing (which are the artistic qualities of skateboarding) than a huge number of other skaters.

@@unclesam997 I think the way he mixes freestyle, transition, and street in itself is an art form. He’s not as steez as could be, and there are more creative skaters (personally, I like richie Jackson); however, I can’t think of any skater that is so versatile with the board. The art to me with Andy is how he can control the board in a very unique way and find comfort/balance in spots where other skaters may be struggling to stay Upright.

@@topxsoul there are lots of other skaters who are much more versatile on the board. You said you like how he mixes transition and street (and freestyle but no one really does freestyle anymore) but so many guys do that and at a higher level. I mean just look at Daewon Song to bring up an easy example. Daewon is nasty everywhere. Cody McEntire is a great street guy that has super tech transition skills too. And honestly I’d say Evan Smith is the most creative skateboarder right now. Evan doesn’t do bullshit tricks but he still does creative tricks plus Evan is ridiculous in transition. Or Daan Van Der Linden. His street skating is incredible but if you watch him in a bowl it’s just as good (he's on antihero for a reason). Andy Anderson isn’t a horrible skateboarder, but I think he’s getting more hype than deserved.

Hah Ha haa

Pixar is an animation studio...

So awesome!

Nice that’s the first piece that I’ve seen on Vancouver in a while that didn’t end with .. and he’s dead now, So that’s positive

Well said!! 👍👍

John Hill I don't think he's human

@@luckycharms7232 or a few extra maybe? (Extra Skate gene)

Andy is just so damn good

😂

@Aj Fioritti hes one of the most consistent skaters period; just because you don't like someones personality doesn't mean you can't separate art from craft. John is insane.

Or Alexander Rademaker

I saw him on braille n he was wearing a helmet too. Maybe he's just become accustomed to it with the vert skating.

he's the authenticandyanderson

No offense but you have to be pretty stupid as to not know why someone would wear a helmet. The main reason people wear helmets is for safety. Helmets are designed for safety, skateboarding is dangerous, so its pretty fkn logical that he wears a helmet for safety....

@@benl8962 More specifically, he wears it because of a friend of his who had a terrible fall. It's not a stupid question to ask when 99% of pros with street or bowl parts don't wear helmets.

@@benl8962 yeah, unbelievable that thats the state of mind from some of these people.

Purple smells like eggplant. 😶

Was thinking the same thing.

Exactly!!! Truly organic and pure love

I agree, the fact you never see him without a helmet is such a good example.

I think that’s what happens when you push yourself. I often don’t wear one if I’m just riding around. But if I’m learning something new or trying something I’m not comfortable with, on goes the helmet. And yeah, like at 2:42 I don’t know how no one ever seems to react in any of these vids.

It's funny I didn't even think about him wearing it until I read your post i was to busy looking at a skateboard flowing like a ballerina on a surfboard

More people need to stop telling people what to do!

@@hsjsjshjjjsjakaozhhs9473 take your own advice kid

More skaters should wear helmets? More skaters should do whatever the fuck they want, go back to your rocking chair old man

@@hsjsjshjjjsjakaozhhs9473 you are dumb af

Don't forget a little a Natas too. Awesome video Brett, such a nice vibe, filming. And skating from Andy too ;) .

Some

Honestly this is one of my favorite skate videos of all time. There are a lot of parts on the list but between the production and the very unique skating & locations here, it's infinitely watchable for me.

@Landon Lawrence But has anyone done one for that long? That was so gnarly.

It's been a real trick for ages. Check out Natas' part in Streets on Fire

@@McBicbic Natas didn't actually do a free hand spin on top of the hydrant. He even said so himself. That's the first time I've ever seen it done as a full spin with nothing around you and a landed trick too. Natas held onto a stop sign to keep his balance. This kid is gifted.

What do we even call that shit?

Locksy Coconut manual maybe

Locksy Primo manual? Glitch manual?

@@Nick_J_ Primo manual seems right. that shit blew my fucking mind wide open. not even to mention the fact that he was doing that down a decent little hill. that was so dope

i always thought its a primo slide but now im not sure anymore cus its actually not sliding, isn't it

Wasn't exactly primo he was doing a side manual? idk what it's called haha Rode on 2 wheels.

Coconut wheelie

goosebumps

Brett: "Andy what grind are you going to do now?" Andy: "All"

The helicopter is what we call it in the trade
