pretty true about the style though, he doesn't really have a style, more machine like, amazing but stiff...
When you think of vallely/cab/gonz you are thinking style.

haha
It's all about The Gonz, Tony T, Dustin Dollan, Dennis Busenitz, Geoff Rowley, Bastien Salabanzi and Antwuan Dixon (check out the Baker 3 vid).

(Nov 29 05, 04:35)Not for a few years now I'm sorry to say. Still appreciate the skills of the Mullen though.

Ahh that's a shame. So you haven't skated the concrete replacement for the old rubbishness that used to be at Hyde park? Soooo good.

Frikkin love him, I tried so hard to copy his style when I scated, I couldn't do it cause he is so unique. Hmmmm can't remember which video could be second hand smoke, but when rodders just does loads of cool freestyle to a tune ' If I could keep time in a bottle' I get all teary eyed. He rules so much.
I'm not gay I just have healthy respect.

ha ha, I just read nessdogs posts, he did have a stinky style but thats why I loved it cause you had no idea what he was going to do :D
probably stems from all his mad freestyle balance pure like a spazzy ballet dancer ha ha.
I rule not as much as rodders though.

mullen vs song
- rasko40
its impossible to determine whether daewon song has style, because his clothes are so ridiculously oversized you cant even see him moving.
- nessdog0
Yurp Chossy... stinky smelly style like a drunken geek. I'm not knocking his skills though. He's scores a grade A* in skateboarding techness... as does PJ Ladd ('cept PJ's got steez).

Style or no style, mullen pretty much the father of modern skating... you would agree to compaire Mullen with likes of The Gonz, Jason Lee and many others is stupid, the fact is that skating is much more about carving your own path than following the masses.
I'm sure anyone of these guys,
would say the same...I was with some peeps out with Jason Lee early this year when he was over with his company Stereo skateboards and I remember him saying something pretty much what I said!

i was very impressed to see song in the new dvs video. Ive only seen him be so tech it was refreshing to see him skating more then benches on roofs.

vulcan mindmeld... your thoughts to mine...

rodney was one of the top guys years and years ago when i started skating (about 15-16 years ago).
if id been skating professionally nonstop for 16 years id be hoping that i was as shithot as he was.
instead i deceided to go to attend high school, college and uni and persue a career.what a bastard he is for being so shit hot eh?
imagine you just woke up one day and had those skills hehe.
- KILLputer0
wonderful, I watch him for hours.
(*grabs old skate from back porch that I haven't used since 1995... tries an impossible, misses, breaks leg, buys skate videos to watch for next 6 months)

Veering off track.... Jason Lee is HOT! Hubba.
- sireal0
... he's also a fucking funny guy to chat to! But then again most
skaters are...Black, white, punk, hip hop, rock'n'roll... what ever their into I can't say I met many assholes!!
- nessdog0
So you haven't met Cates then?
