Dan Gesmer - The magic of effortless gliding.

[liamprum]

this is so disturbing, but at :42 , still pretty sick

[SKEETERBURNS]

THIS MAN IS A TRUE VIRGIN!

[ShredTheGnarz]

shit is awesome

[pdubone]

thank goodness skating didn't continue in this direction eh?

[rockskaterdudeperson]

there are reasons for the rainbows in the background..

[thatoneguy23231]

LOLOL R THOSE OTANG WHEELS!?!?!?!??!?!

[SloppySkateboarder]

18 people dislike gliding.

[blusherskate]

I bet he cant do kickflips

[19tc85]

LOL, this was on the Wild World of Spike from a while back. Kit Cope, Sam Tripoli, and Jason Ellis all tried this out as a challenge. Man, what a trainwreck it was.

[inkykat]

haha i love this

[nathanielperkins]

Pretty corny but he gets it.

[JinJahP]

didnt know my dad was that into it,

[meparadis]

always knew skateboarding was gay!

[vidboy4]

haha, everyone calling this gay only knows about tech skating and aren't true skaters. just bunch of wannabe-rebels with skateboards.

Dan said he WASN'T gay in a different interview and he was only doing this shit in the 80's.

I bet most of your parents dressed and acted as gay back the 80's... face it, most of you idiots don't remember or appreciate shit from past decades.

[glenhammerle]

@vidboy4 hahahaha thats bad enough that he has to defend himself from being called gay

[vidboy4]

@glenhammerle yea maybe, but most guys usually would defend themselves too if someone accused them of being gay when they're not... anyways here's the video where he talks about it /watch?v=WKxlSlHuc48

[jfang407]

i laughed within 4 seconds of the video at the narration.

[serversushi]

this shit is EPIC!

[Stan4nz]

LOOL FAGGOT

[dansk8s4life]

this isnt fucking balle

[babycrabman]

bam margera would jerk off to this video

[punkerija]

@babycrabman Bam margera is faggot

[babycrabman]

that is more gay than a unicorn at a shirley bassey concert

[helipilot727]

ASStro GLIDE

[lepup348u]

believe it. here's where something real happens. the ride IS in the glide. any skills, you got to glide it too.

[jezzacaple]

fucking sick

[paperairplaneartist]

It's really great to see more and more skate boarders coming out of the closet, I mean your not fooling anyone and the way you constantly take your homophobia out on the rollerbladers makes it that much more obvious.

[kangiwiyaka]

He was ahead of his time with how tight his clothes are ... lol.

[stewlegg]

0:44 damn son thats hard

[DevinWiles]

imagine if this was where skateboarding went instead of into the streets

[Imabigkiidnow]

i wouldnt be skating and itd prolly be an olympic sport lol

[vascopedro76]

priceless. actually i do remember this.

[jiminberkeley]

HAHAHA!!!! Thats the funniest shit ive seen in a while...

[lepup348u]

yea jiminie, u and ur meaningless channel

[jiminberkeley]

Oh lepup, you and all your meaning...

[sykoboy313]

his nephew is like one of my best friends

[Dave2LA]

corey duffel pants lol

[RealEros1]

well i guess skateboard isnt skateboarding no more i cant carve on a skateboard no more the trucks are like rocks

[kopingkiller]

This dude has been skating for longer than most of us have been alive. You might think his style of skating is strange, but it does require a great deal of skill. If he wanted to he could be great at any style he just chooses to do his own thing which is what skateboarding needs. More creativity.

[cropuless]

doubt it.

[snowbro6]

This is the gayest skateboarding video I have ever seen. That's it, i'm rollerblading, screw it.

[OksanaBaiul]

I like that guy alot

he's the reason i started skateboarding

[skatingispassion]

damn how isnt this guy pro

[HouseOfTheStrange]

this is, hands down, the WORST example of skateboarding I have ever seen in my entire life.

[skatecff]

your gay

[mclovin101999999]

very gay gggggggaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy

[alanchrishughes]

skate boarding in its purest form

[omhuz]

ggggggggaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy­yyyyyyy

[sgezzy72]

YO THATS MY UNCLE!!! IM A GESMER. NOT A GEZMER. WELL. so what we're related

[Rikxcore]

Dude, this is amazing. Don't people skateboard to set themselves apart? This guy sure is doing that very well. So open your minds a little.

[XtylerandgagevideosX]

u suck!!! tricks make it beter

[fuzzydeer]

He can do some pretty sick tricks

[sk8ershackisdabomb]

this just ruins it for every one doesnt it?

[LEWLZER]

FIGGIN BALLER YALLZZ

[duracellpencap]

"the magic of effortless gliding!"

hahahahahaha I cant believe they came out with a movie like that!

imma buy that mothafucka!!!!!!!!!

[homiesibi1000]

fuck you gaaaaaaaaaay:

[CoffieshopBergen]

Ballet skating? WOW

[sarahjessica03]

OK...I change my mind...Rodney is original, but you have to give all the props to Dan for leading skating in that direction... He was the first! If it wasn't for him.... well!

[ashura2k]

THIS MAN IS A TRUE VISIONARY.

[serversushi]

@ashura2k lol

[fiamesses]

..... WTF!!! What has skating gone into

[tht420kid]

wut a fag

[teamapple]

Try making a profound statement when you learn to spell the word what...

[Dedalus0]

I always thought this bit in Public Domain was meant as a joke, but watching it now I'm not so sure.

I kind of have to give him props for doing his own thing, but considering skateboarding's core demographic, you can't expect this to fly without being subject to a lot of ridicule. With that said, "FUCKING LAME! Go back to stretching in front of a mirror NAMBLA."

[themagicskateboarder]

someone kick his ass and build him some ramps

[sarahjessica03]

U rock!!! Come on....who can really top that!

[themagicskateboarder]

uh rodney mullens

[sarahjessica03]

Yes, but most anyone whom skates uses ramps...

I was actually looking for a person on here whom has enough courage to try something different from the norm... Not someone whom is doing what everyone else is doing. Although modeling can be good for you to a point just don't get too "boxed" in. Good luck with your skating..

[sarahjessica03]

Yes, but Rodney is not very original... difference are what makes people interesting!

[brianz1214]

poser

[hollynehme]

loooser.

[donny99]

Cool!

[suicide1112]

The Gonz actually says something quite similar to what is stated in this video.

[foglike]

gansta' glide dooo , thuoght ya'll new!?!

[BryceandChristian]

Gayest thing i have ever seen, ima quit skateboarding lol

[justyouwaitandsee]

i wonder if he can kickflip?

[fuzzydeer]

He can with his hands

[CoRRaSS]

FUCK!:D

[IAmWolfman]

He's cool, just for sticking to what he believes in. As for the whole 'gay' thing... he isn't gay; haters are suffering from 'macho insecurity'.

[Darknives]

well said

[winz1921]

wow, im a sponsored skater . . . . that truly makes me want to quit skateboarding.

[heternan]

what the hell is wrong with you you freaking fag

[alexsedov]

man this s*** is gay as gangsters

[alexsedov]

I thought skateboarding was a street thing, lmao

[pingpong9544]

this is what happens when a skateboarder comes out of the closet/figure skater or ballerina trying to look cool

[zeljecrap]

this is the very best thing ever

[ViableCalifornia]

this guy should be a hidden character on the Tony Hawk games.

[serversushi]

@ViableCalifornia lmao

[DeathRender]

O.O

[pkunze123]

Wow pretty gay... but he gets my respect for the old school spins and manuals at the end

[SonytoBratsoni]

he has my respect

[jrwoodfield]

well it was pretty gay except that one spin at the end was raw

[Crapdaan]

omg...

[WhathappenedtopunK]

wow he just made skateboarding very very not cool

[lozarona]

Gayboarding MATE wot is wrong with him

[RandomChap55]

wow, ooooookay. that was just really really really bad. gliding is most definately not the essence of skateboarding, gliding just gets you from spot to spot so that you can kill a nollie heel down 10!

[ALeone250]

Ha, I knew skateboarding was gay... Fuckin retards. Buy some rollerboots.

[eeelllliiiiiiii]

rollerbladers are angry, spiteful people.

[xgreenxcloverx]

Not me. =)

[sam333777]

Fruitbooters suck

[Brenno20]

lol this dude is real serious about his skateboarding..hilarious, what a champ

[14thSgtStedanko]

Baaaaaaahahahahahahaha. Yeah, who needs all that x-games trick nonsense, lets just glide. Baaaaahaahaahaha.

[ballstodawall]

notice the RAINBOW

[ndoublea05]

I can't wait til he gets his own video game

[Nominay]

lol

[bellinghamster]

I saw a dog do that

[geikogecko]

this guys thug 4 lyfe

[KingOfScreams]

as if gliding wasnt gay enough, now you have to add it to skateboarding

[shakswak]

This is the gayest thing i've ever seen.

[andrewgorny]

There's a kenny G of skateboarding!!! hilarious!!!

[lonelygirlseyebrows]

that takes mad skills

[shinesinpines]

lol the fruit cake has some good balance

[bluewildangel7]

that toes on the nose spin move at the end was sick sans the ballerina hands

[jpysir]

i think hes part serious cause he talks about gliding and it being the essence of the sport but its so hard to take it seriously, lol he makes some good points though

[vspanderson]

fuck all you wanta be skaters this is the real shit

[MRderkaderkaderka]

That...was pretty gay.

[InterSmells]

LOL!

[acampbell8888]

lmfao what a homo even a rainbow in the back haha

[kitkat0517]

Yeah, why don't have some flips? :o)

[KevinRitchie]

It was sick when he did the hang ten tornado.

[stirlo69]

The best bit was when it ended

[thomasdamgaard]

To Chezalic

Can't you se the big rainbow in the background? That kinda tell's whats going on!

[ZaraLauren]

fuck this is the gayest shit i ever fucking seen!!!

[Nyhof]

haha gay cunt

[kickinflips]

lolz what a poof no offence m8 kickflips and ollies and crap are best things bout skatin

[3JV1LL42AM4]

as much as it makes me laugh...that spinning thing he does made me cream my pants.

[JeffCanada]

hahaha dan gesmer is my new idol

[stevesawatsky]

shitty!

[chezalic]

How do you guys figure he's gay? Maybe if there was another dude on the board or he was doing some really close sychronized skating then maybe. I guess it takes one to know one.

[pri22059410]

hes talented but so gay

[Quinn123321]

and people say rollerblading is gay. hah

[fuzzydeer]

he's a jerk! Honestly. (ahimsabakti are you dan gesmer. he's always talking about his muscles and his "lady friends

anyway keep up the good work gemser you'll kill any chance slalom racers have to make a few bucks off of thier sport

paskapoodh dot com

[iampetey1212]

man you guys are haters hes got style

[lacostakill]

ok that guy is gay

[adammmm]

mike taylor hasnt got shit on Dan Gesmer.

[vokalskatimprov]

dudes wish they were that graceful Daniel Gesmer is my hero

[Lucasseila]

i like freestyle and oldschool stufs and some diferent tricks..but thats fucking gay men..i mean if he like to skate like that,ok what ever...but i think its fucking gay :P

[dustox11]

dude.... no, that is stupid, it is basically umm, wut is that.... uhhh, oh yeah, figure skating on ice.

[ahimsabakti]

Hey,I bet you cant do that on wheels, blades, shoes or even your dreams! Let's face it, Dan is talented. If what he's doing was easy or didn't require discipline, artistic background and for sure a ton more muscles in control everyone would be doing it. He has the capability to get out of the box and keep lots of other elements still in play. He is one of a kind and you are probably jealous 'cause all you know how to do is the all tricks that everyone goes for.

[emagdnim9]

Wow that guy is such a cock-gobbler, and yet, he is the "essence" of skateboarding. That should almost be flagged innapropriate.

[McDer27]

blow me

[xgreenxcloverx]

Eat my shorts!
