I feel how Mike feels on a deeper level than most. I’ve skated my whole life, it’s my passion, there were times when the only thing that kept me going was the thought of spending an hour at a spot trying to big flip a 10 stair or something along those lines. I was in a car wreck in 2014, met an 18 wheeler at an intersection head on, we were both going 60mph, I ended up spending the next 6 months in a wheelchair, then the 6 after that relearning how to walk. The only thing that kept me going was skateboarding, I refused to even think about the fact that I may not ever be able to skate again. Now here I am 5 years after taking my first initial steps again without needing crutches or anyone’s help and it just isn’t the same, I can’t even ollie off a 4 foot ledge without my legs feeling like they wanna give out. I work out everyday and it still isn’t the same, and I’ve come to terms with the fact I’ll never be able to skate the way I used too.

@@mrmedl4 Agreed, but I don't fault him for keeping skateboarding at arm's length during a time when his peers are still near the top of their game and putting out parts. Pro athletes need something to put an obsessive focus into and I'd assume Glassy is his ticket for now. When something isn't as fun as it used to be, it's easier to change priorities around. It's natural for people to gravitate towards things with huge growth opportunities and skateboarding doesn't really offer that to him anymore

The best of the best always get injured. I'm 31 and as everyone does who's heavily into skating I looked to the past before absorbing the future generations of skaters. John Cardiel was a massive flag in dedication and aggression accompanied with style and great personality. I feel the same way about Mo, he left his mark as they said in a huge way, I followed Mo as he was coming up and love his style in everyway. Personally feel like one day he'll give alot more to skateboarding just in a different way. His parts were and still are the parts that I watch before I go skate. Also, why has someone not filmed Mo VS Koston golfing?

I got fully flared for Christmas when I was a kid. It was my first skate dvd, I'll never forget that opening mike mo part! Its the only reason I even tried skating switch. I also ran into him after the injury at skate lab and he was playing skate with all of us and still so good. Skateboarding won't forget him.

Man so damn sad! I remember watching Mike Mo coming up then he hit big in Fully Flared, then I haven't heard about him in awhile, so decided to search him up today, and here we are, so sad for him because he was such an awesome skater!

I can't describe how many times I have seen his Fully Flared part while bored at school. Recently watched it again for the first time in like 10 years and am kinda bummed out to see Mike like this. Pretty cool how he handles it, seems like he's still a bit pissed off but he made peace with it. Legend.

Breaks my freaken heart man. I’m glad he looks at it in a good light. I think of it as remember the NBA players who won championships and had all the best accolades but their careers ended from injuries. Man there were so many but not all of them looked at these times gracefully.

I feel this. I been skating since I was 5 years old. Just loved cruising and being on the board. Never got into doing a ton of tricks but always had fun till I tore my meniscus at 19 years old. Haven’t been on one since

In 2013 i developed like the harshest type of Bipolar Disorder. People might that’s a joke, but it ended my carreer. No energy for 8 months then manic episode and hospitalization. Finally I get good meds, but after 15 years of skating I basically slowly hung it up. Because I can’t do it the way I used to and it just fucking sucks. And everytime I try pushing it, it still doesnt work out at all. I feel you Mo.

Props to Mike Mo! Dude is a legend on the board and can still outskate 99.99999% of the world. Life is fucked sometimes and he's handling it like a man, you can't change the past. Gotta just keep going and remember the good times like he said

I’ve been skating on and off for about the last 10 years and recently just got back into it again. Mike Mo’s Fully Flared part is really what turned me into skateboarding and he was my childhood hero no cap. I was astonished when a few of my friends today said they had no idea who Mike Mo was and I had to show them his Fully Flared part for the first time. Granted they had only been skating for the last 4-5 years but still wtf. Mike Mo literally changed the game. This man should be a 3x SOTY by now.

I can relate- I’m metal from left hip to knee and right knee to foot. I’m not gonna skate all day to land a backtail shuv, hoping to not get worked and be out of commission for a week, considering I had kickflip backtail shuv out on lock like 10 years ago. It ain’t the age; it’s the hardware that limits us, unfortunately; and people tend to forget that because it’s not their legs. Much love from MA.

Mike you are one of my all time favorite skateboarders and I know you get to hear that a lot but that doesn't make it less true. I can especially relate to you as I am going through a pretty similar experience atm. I'm just gonna vent here now to anyone that will read this. 5 weeks ago my feet startet to get numb and paralyzed and it went up to the hips within 4 days. Turns out I have F*ING MS and it's not gonna be just a pill to get me back on my board. Crazy thing about that in the last 4 years together with a fantastic team we build a skatepark "Allerfornia" with a skateschool, a Parkteam, organizing Contest and just now everything was set for proper life for a skateboarder. I mean I made it to a point where I can comfortably live only doing what I love and building a community. I usually don't comment or engage much but I guess I kind of needed to get this off my chest 🤔 Anyways, life is not over until it's over but I honestly don't know if I can feel like being part of skateboarding without being able to skate. I mean I'll try anyways 😅
