Oli Short - The Rain

[syttik]

yo man, you guys may not understand. but to me what this guy does is beautiful. maybe it takes a drunk to see it, but he is turning straight up normal stairs and rails into art! he is turning rollerblades into flight! he jumps and for a moment is free from daily responsibilities, obligations, he is a motherfukhing bird for just one moment! and that is why i love rollerblading!!!! no homo! pure homo!

[UnitedRolling]

check out my new oli short edit on my youtube, its super sick and unseen!

[LiamAndrew11]

sorry but this song must be the most douchey piece of crap Ive ever heard... But Oli, your SICK man!

[freekicking85]

oli is awesome, sick of the same old skater spouting fake hip hop gang signs, low pants and stylish monkey armed true top souls. Oli brings true originality and creativity to a sport that lacks it.

Also what is the tune??

[BruceDobbie]

HAHA shittest edit going!! Common, ex-pro Valo rider and now pro Nimh rider wih his own skate?! Ahaaa what a joke, if i werent a skater and just saw him walk down the road with a pair of skates, i would just think 'is this guy for real?' so bad, and shit style for a PRO. Wouldnt be hating if he wasnt pro haha, v4l.

[anutoldlegend89]

@BruceDobbie What are you talking about?

[BruceDobbie]

@anutoldlegend89 oli short is so shit for a pro! do you not think?

[anutoldlegend89]

@BruceDobbie I mean I wouldn't say he's the best but I wouldn't say he's shit either. I mean you have to give him credit. He lives in Europe and it's very restricting as far as skating goes, because everything is made out of brick and there are little to no skate parks. And also I just think that it's the clips that are shown in this video.

[BigCloudProduction]

@anutoldlegend89 the uk is not shit for street, cities like manchester, london and brighton are proof of this, the clips in this are just what oli choses to skate its what he skates the best on and its even better for skateparks some of the worlds best skateparks are in europe eg area 51, holland, bay 6, london, adrenaline alley to name but a few. And how is europe restricted for skating Barcalona is the street mecca you cant call yourself a blader if you dont know that! Fucking american wannabe

[anutoldlegend89]

@BigCloudProduction For starters EVERY Skater knows that New York is the skating mecca HANDS DOWN. And secondarily, why are you cursing and calling me names I've had a lot of skaters from the very own US tell me that even though Europe is decent , and has good scenery, it has no comparison to the east coast of the US. I'm not trying to down where you are from and I'm not trying to start an argument, so please dont get upset.

[BigCloudProduction]

@anutoldlegend89 ermmmm where is it the conference the largest blading franchise sends alllll its riders to film. I thiiink its the powerhouse in Barcelona? watch valo for life theres a whole section on it unlike your beloved NYC

[anutoldlegend89]

@BigCloudProduction I know, I've seen it, but I assure you that skaters from all over the world will say that new york is a skate paradise. I will put money on that. Check out Kevin Downing's "Blading".

[anutoldlegend89]

@BigCloudProduction Excuse me, it's spelled Dowling

[moderndaydodo]

needs a haircut right enough

[steelydan211]

oli is the man!!!! he always has the best segments ever with this as no exception. keep killin it!!!!!!!!!!

[jqw1295]

this song is what makes the video! i think

[shimmyshimmyPL]

amazing creative style it's so beautiful I can see so much fun in this style that's it :)

[xXDarkElfX]

6:12 fucking sick

[gregbaby11]

him and broskow are gods

[chrissnow777]

3:35 he shoulda flipped

[TheCtkaj]

[JaCk123tOiBiN]

@TheCtkaj nah man hes just keeping it gansta.

[BruceDobbie]

@JaCk123tOiBiN hahaha

[man3t3s]

he skates everything! i think it's great his style, it's totaly free. there is no other skater like him.

[33hegemon]

i remember skating with this guy back when he was 4ft tall. i haven't even looked at a skating video in 7 years, it's amazing how much he has improved.

[puppy010]

old schoool

[nlausch]

you mean rollerblading?

[gumbyatl]

Holy fucking amazing.

My favorite Oli section yet.

So many memorable tricks.

[TzakiSoba]

he is my favourite skater. his style. his moves..

everything are great.

[joshjs667]

looks like he belongs in the 70's and i also agree with v v v v

and this video makes england look well trampy lol

[dsmdeegen]

sketchy style.

[Chr1s1nc]

The UK is a pile fo shit for skate spots, i wanna move to USA lol, anyways oli is a sick skater

[brianvelasquez]

Yeah, you should come on down to Ny or Cali. NY for street spots Cali for park

[bs79uhcon]

@Chr1s1nc Not exactly.. ?

[kr2n0988]

man all the skaters now days wnere tight girls pants and emo music fuking gay what happened to the rap and baggy jeans or atleast rock and no so tight jeans

[6runge]

Qht up dude! i agree as well but........ i mean things always change its called evolution not for good neither for bad i guess things just change , like i did some time ago i only listend to hardcore music now i like more deep lyrics and tigh pants i guess im growin well im 25 now so ........ thats SAD xDDD

[Seanistoocool4you]

if you think the velvet underground is emo you should shoot yourself in the head.

[12jdmd]

i dont really like blading that much but i have to say that was sick!

[Dorifto007]

the music nearly put me to sleep.....

[t0psecretshit]

is this a song by demetri martin? just kidding. no offense to those who likes this type of music...i like it too! but i just dont see why so many skate videos are choosing to use music like this. it doesnt do anything but makes the skating seem tame and boring. oli short did some amazing skating on this section but the music just brought it down..made it less exciting. this section could've been better if the music was different. just my thoughts. dont hate me. oli short is dope!

[Seanistoocool4you]

no its the velvet underground.

[ryancbuchanan]

YEAH...SHOULDA USED THAT HOT NEW EMINEM SINGLE...SHIT ISSS FYREEEE.

[alucard020097]

@t0psecretshit just....shhhhh.....let it all in =)

[skaterofmagical]

man hes nothin special you people should start cheacking out dan ives harry reavley and lee mainland there just as good if not better

[Flakevee]

i'm so happy this got back on youtube.

[CBAwithname]

i was there when he was filming the section at south bank skate park london :D hes awesome

[croookkk]

Oli is fast ...and he's the best

[thisgirlcharli]

well, he's no Colin Kelso, but he's 'ite

aha

[J037H3A137]

man lol this is sick canada has shit all for rails and lines lol im from peg also boring as parks too :P but this guy is the shit man i wish i had skill like this guy

[scar504]

[FrighterZ]

[florianrocks]

hey please can you put the kingdomination section from this dvd ?

[leehamsamwich]

u neva see aragon do any of this shit oli in a comp diif world :) hes great

[algmetal91760]

a 1 moment il est o palai de tokio a paris

^^

[thedonnycrew]

i love his sketchy style and his absent minded unique approach to skating

he has an inventive mind

and its good to have a change from

hand rail hand rail hand lege hand rail

[bzrogato]

damn the doods got a really good eye for rolling and totally pulled off a section to heroin...a peice of art it is!!!

[JaCk123tOiBiN]

that was very nice section:D its agood change from just loads of rails:D

[Dorifto007]

5 stars video, nicely done Kingdom. I like watching sections that show more than people just hitting rails.

[skatingwar]

all haterz who thinks he sucks should try to beet him in his natural environment- a shitty english street

[metalnut92]

it's true - i always feel inspired watching oli's stuff, because he hits up shit that you see all the time (if your british) and would never think of skating

we simply don't have the same sort of architecture as the states, so we've gotta be more creative :/

[TepidCadaver]

Thank god for those random guys in duffel coats, lmao. Win vid

[LewisRoyden]

anyone know where that last spot is?

[h0rrid1]

What skates are those?

[felixauksurfer]

roces oli short 2s

[wuba777]

at fist few clips Valo Eb.1

later on all kinds of Roces-M12 including his 2 pro models

JEEJ

[t0psecretshit]

4:13 is insane!

[ShibbyMyspace]

what style/ filter did u use for the pre shot looks that look like old style film?

[xsjadobruce]

chris farmer is more creative and alot more skilled

[00ABBITT00]

meh.

[gregbaby11]

ride dwn dodgey set to road gap to 540 a set wtf! and not to mention the fence he uses as a kicker! the man is genious on blades more spontanious than ANYTHING!

[likwid27]

i wish i could do grabs like oli. they are just so steezed out!

[robo2k8]

a dunno how the fuk he thinks of thease lines like but he is fukin imense

[xsjadorider2]

if one was ever to be a parkour rollerblader, it would be Oli Short.

[postitflower]

haha yea

[singersin]

This is my favourite video! the song name is: "the velvet underground - heroin" the song is wonderful too, because the man is singing about the death.. :)

[Flakevee]

hey what's the name of the song ? please reply !!

[groundcontrolsk8r01]

heroin - velvet underground

[deadjuliet01]

that looks....unbelievable :|

[skater188]

mike is gay

[troydizzle]

best oli section til clip 4 dropped.

[Flakevee]

hey what's the name of the song ? please reply !!

[zola25chelsea]

FUCK YOU.

OLI SHORT IS GOD.

if you think oli short is shit then you know nothing about rollerblading.

[davie4monster]

Is this stuff kind of like "Living Emo" where-as the kids with the purple fingernails who sit around their rooms all day, like "Dead Emo"?? I Declare it. Living Emo.!

[xaustin27x]

skower, if u think hes good,

go watch a real rolerblader like chris hffey or anyone else

u will shit your pants if u think oli short is good

[LewisRoyden]

4:24 Adam Kola got such a steezy photograph of that, it was in ONE magazine... great photographer,

Oli is probably the best person to take photo's for too, he's so unique and different in style. everything he does is a serious picture opportunity.

top skating.

[lastmanskating2]

hey look, its the reason why people call rollerblading gay.

i jumped off a wall once, sponcer me.

[metalnut92]

Ok man, go recreate the part from 2:40 - 2:44, film it, upload it, and post us the link when you're done.

THEN you can call Short shit.

[zola25chelsea]

you got ever spell sponsor, so you've got no chance.

[Skower]

are you fucking kidding me? only watch oli short to feel better about your rollerblading, you could not do a single thing that was in this section, get a life crumb.

[xaustin27x]

how is he on the valo team?

i only watch him to make me feel good about skating. who ever thinks he is good should just stop skating. like who climbs on top of a wall and then jumps off...pathetic.

[bballog08]

he's on the valo team because he has unique skating and will climb up a shoddy brick wall to jump of it. He makes skating look fun and arguably stylish. Valo is a brand that markets these things. Or else they wouldn't just be M12's with a pretty exterior. He's their rock and roll skater. And a good one.

[xsjadoroller90]

some of the things he does are so tech thats what makes him pro like duck under a rail jump before you hit the grass but still have speed to wallride over grass i dont think many people could pull that off

[jackvaxx2100]

1:40 O.O!!!11!11!oneone

[iowaidaho66]

The song is "Heroin" by The Velvet Underground

[tk1515]

some one tell me the name of the song plz ? xD

[lilsheppy]

wat skl is that in 3:15 is it pentrebane primany

[juliokeke]

trop class,ce mec il voit voit pas les spot comme nous,c'est ca qui rend son skating unique!!j'aime!!

[arrrival]

lastman he has his own boot made by roces..twat

[lastmanskating2]

what has that got to do with anything you dick?!

do you skate valo?!

and if you do, you must be either to cheap to buy a good pair of skates, or a complete idiot.

[arrrival]

I skate the fucking oli short model you twat.He has the model made because they sponsor him. He is also sponsored by Sifika shoes, Heat wheels, vicious bearings, england clothing and loco skateshop(then again that might not be all up to date)and i like valo so shut the fuck up , your sounding like a woodpusher

[ROTspam]

What is wrong with you arrival? You broadening the gap between us and "woodpushers."

[arrrival]

hasnt it already been broadened enough, 90% of inlinje videos have some wannabe skateboarder that cant pop an ollie taking the piss

[ROTspam]

First of all, that would be narrowing the gap. And second of all which videos have you been watching? The only ones I've seen with a boarder in them is when chris farmer or alex broskow decide to do some tricks on a skateboard....

[jamesmac9]

to be honest with you that doesn't make a difference

But oli short is probably my favourite skater, i am not trying to prove you wrong and agree with 'lastmanskating2'

[lastmanskating2]

Hahaha, oli short is so bad, yea a couple of ok tricks, but theres no way he should be sponcered.

[zola25chelsea]

your a fucking moron, you know nothing.

[XsjadoProduction]

Its not all bout tricks, anyways ts only this video that he isn't doing that impressive tricks, but it shows the essence of skating: Having fun and do what you like

[bazzthespaz]

is he skatin eb in the intro bit

[xXFREESTYLEROLLINGXx]

yes kus hes on valo

[bazzthespaz]

aaah of course

[thankGod4sk8ing]

oli has so much style at 1:32

[estrojildo]

oli is super i dont have more words to describe is justttt the king

[krisy15adams]

most of the time he does stuff switch

[krisy15adams]

most of the time he does stuff switch

[skatefoever]

what song is this can anyone tell me?

[chriss1]

the velvet underground- heroin

[RuStockwell]

Velvet Underground - Heroin

[MiGU3LKun]

nice video but... SUCK SONG

[mqh27]

Oli's creativity amazes me everytime i see him skate. I mean look at 5:57, that was really creative and you can tell hes just totaly having fun doing what he loves to do.

Same with 5:04-20. thats crazy. Personaly when it comes down to skating or even meeting new people, i dont care what people are waring. i might think wow thats kinda over the top but you gotta remember, Dont judge a book by its cover.

right on Oli.

[InrollsItrust2]

gandhi is back..!

[anime03sara]

me kedao sin palabras.... tio! eres el rey de rollers!! con dos cohones!! asi se ase!!! mu bueno!!

[StefanBrandow]

absolutely NO ONE could re create this section. Oli is one of a kind an no one will ever be able to match his creativity and pure craziness.

i'd love to see everyone talking shit on this section go out and try and make it. just because it's smaller stuff and no lame switch ups doesn't mean it's not insane. it's more creativity, harder to think of, and more athletic then doing an over done lame 450 royale

[gregbaby11]

mate he may not be doing crazy ass grinds or switchups but if you try and think how hard most of the gaps must of been to try or how crazy they looked best of BRITISH!!! you want a Brit that can grind with the best go chek adrian wallace or chaz sands or nick lomax oli is fucking amazing Britains anser to alex broskow in my opinion

[blackyle09]

oli short's a junkie?!?!?! what what?!?!

[artysm7]

great style!!!

[dgrec72]

this dude is a tankk hes my hero

[QuebecGold88]

I agree with the old baggy usd style... I just miss that time where skaters weren't all sketchy with tiny legs flipping all over... people should just take a look at Words; movements where just so fluid and stylish; freestyling at is best...

(btw, sry if my english isn't that "fluid"... it's just not my first language)

[kickouttheyuppies]

not really quite a few skaters can pull off that tight jean rocker look and have style. farmer!! but oli when he was sporting baggy clothes just covered up his shabby style i mean i remember him on roces the first time round hurrican fishbraining rails. oli has just been selling himself short due to current rollerblading trends

[livibam]

one of my fav tunes.

[RuStockwell]

mine too )

[williamholsey]

My personal opinion is that I couldn't stand the section. Pretty much the same tricks done over and over again with a spin out. Sorry music for my taste. The music selection completely made me feel every second of the 7 minutes I just watched. However I loved Alex's section. More of an upbeat tempo and his tricks weren't too few. Oli kept using the frontslide grind too much. It's nice to go old school sometimes but not too often. His best part was his bowl minute. Everything esle to me sucked.

[freekicking85]

oli short rules!

[Malacove]

sick opening trick

[tommyp2000]

this was actually my comment i posted on my brothers profile, some entertainin responses tho, either way oli is sick and safe so props to him, im just sayin i prefered his baggy usd steez, and if you dont like it lick my nuts

[ttheonlyt]

u splle godo

[wassall666]

the reason he dont skate big stuff like haffey or shima is he lives in england not much big shit around and when the is the is usally somethink wrong wid the landing and in the usa big shit is around every corner

[g0dzg1ft2rs2]

i live in england and i dont skate shit little walls and bike racks

[wassall666]

o

where about in england do u live

i live in the south and the aint that much big shit

but loads of sate parks

[g0dzg1ft2rs2]

north west i end up skating the same 4 rails around my house over and over, i'm usually skating parks thought all i know is that i would never skate that style

[Jay220891]

same here i live in manchester and theres loads of big shit

[KidInVicious]

maybe hes just sick of skating the same shit

and hes got hes respect time to have fun

and skate for the sake of skating

[jamesmac9]

haha

that's very very wrong

[pocoboi]

bing bing bong bong bing bing bong

[g0dzg1ft2rs2]

hate the song, always hated his style, always walks straight past the big rails and gaps and skates a tiny ledge with a gras landing

[Bassmasta1222]

Dude are u a moron?, He skates "tech" sure he doesnt do big rails and gaps as much as chris haffey or brian shima, But they cant do what he does, His skating is different not worse,

[g0dzg1ft2rs2]

are you a moron, i said i hated his style and the music i didnt say hes crap

[taffywest]

Hating its a bit deep isn't it?

Just because he has a small tech style doesnt mean you should knock it.

[m1ch4315t31n]

Really really good.

[fallenmonkeytieryu]

oli's quinessentially british, it was like watching one of beatles skate. nice and sundayish yknow. very cool

[fallenmonkeytieryu]

i agree with you...but you scoooped his profile haha. but still he should keep his "non-pro" opinions to his self

[jeroim]

nice edit, nice skating, nice music, congrats.

[mymoderatesuspect]

REALLLY NICE EDIT. I liked how he filmed the edit playing on the tv for a filter, Oli is sick as fuck, and throw those two with mr. reed. nicccceee.

[KINKYSPACECOWBOY]

OLI SHORT KICKSASS MATES

[dbycrash]

honestly... i have videos from 1997 that are more progressive and technical than this

[wuba777]

and i laugh at you

[fallenmonkeytieryu]

then watch them and SHUT THE FUCK UP!!......please....thank you

[tooleygoth]

all the editing is the same

[inlininsam]

The editing has a theme... you can't change the style of editing in the middle of a section...

[konicek91]
