BEAST

[1PhatL]

& I'll drink till I pass oooughtt! Irish I has skatebording skill lyk dat mofo!

[RobSteez]

Hardflip king hands down, no one had them like he did in the 90s

[bakejunt775]

people can't compare his hardflip to hermans or maltos, chet thomas does a bunch hardflip variations or a hardflip into a bunch of tricks on a ledge when herm and malto just do plain hardflips down huge stairs

[andresskatedrumm]

chet thomas.... king of the hardflip

[drrtleo]

CHETTY THOMAS !

[IMOLEGREGG]

If ur 'nu skool' then you maybe wont have seen Chet and Ray Barbee in the opening scenes of the 1988 Bones Brigade vid 'Public Domain' around the time of the birth of real street skating, its on here if you do a search....classic. Chet's like 12 years old in it maybe a little older???

[nicklebagoffunk56]

donny barley and this dude have really nice hardflips

[skatborching]

[andyremains]

WOW! i can't believe i never seen this till today! so much passion and enthusiasm!

[Liveandletskate666]

don't hate on Chet, anyone.  he's a legend to the game, and you all should take note of how a real skater performs his duties.

Respect.

[MIKEK3NT]

Eat this Herman

[fashizzlemanizzable]

btw i like hardflips, because seems to be everyone does them different, with slightly different style, and there are much beautiful ones. i love to do this trick myself, and if you do it beautiful than even on flat them lookin hot.

i dont like much: jimmy carlins (but his reverts are great too, collin provosts (but sometimes he has good ones) and switch ones lookin not as good most of them. liking also: Luan de Oliveiras!

[fashizzlemanizzable]

are all you people like mad or something, or do you not have eyes???? fuck, yes the chetty thomas at the end was nice, really. but what the fuuck, there are so much skaters that have so much more beautiful hardflips than THIS ! alex mizurov, sewa kroetkov, just to name big ones, or any fuckin kid on youtube, type in HARDFLIP, alex schmidts trick tip for example... cheesh..

[ThePudding100]

@fashizzlemanizzable style back when this vid was made, was completely different from what it is today. his hardflips are really nice now, but back then they were godly to people

[TheMunchMaster]

@fashizzlemanizzable you must be high because nobody has better hard flips than chet thomas

[skate2dadeath]

@fashizzlemanizzable you fuckin noob! why don't you fuckin realize this is a legend doing a classic trick with classic style in a classic video? don't you also realize that skating back in 2000 was WAYY different than it is now? i can tell you've been skating for less than a month because you're easily influenced by what you most commonly see. THIS is how you do a proper hardflip, you cum guzzling twat of a rich kid...

[AlienSkaterO]

@skate2dadeath Holy crap dude chill ... skatings about having fun not arguing bout who has the best hardflips

that other kid is stupid i know , but ignore him ... " you cum guzzling twat of a rich kid " holy crap ... take it easy .

[NutsGorilla]

Why wouldn't he just skate until he can't skate?

[uhhmario]

his voice is deep af

[elMofoMao]

The line @ 3:33... Soooo good!

[zWoK6508]

[papamitrou1]

I don't even think the "tre flips" in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, look as crisp as the 360-Flip Chet throws down at 4:07...

[ollierodgers1]

Where is the spot at 1:21??? please?

[ZadexTakido]

hardflip fs crooks???? wtF?

[postnobillscanada]

How skating has changed...mad respect to Chet but, wow..it's gotten so much more insane.

[dubified89]

@postnobillscanada How has skating gotten much more insane than this?

[fakeplasticfool]

@postnobillscanada

how has shit gotten "much more insane" exactly?

[JustAnotherRapGroup]

his varials are pretty sexy too

[JcWhatCounts20]

I always thought Chet had the coolest shoe line...

[fakeplasticfool]

@JcWhatCounts20

ditto dude i had a pair of his early globes, shame now companys are just reproducing crappy knockoff vulcanized vans

[oregan1]

i like how he does proper hardflips, that flip straight up. Not those Crap looking "inward kickflips" that people call hardflips now.

[olisaoli]

@oregan1 Yea, same goes for impossibles...

[AllSkill8701]

my mans got those hardflips on LOCK

[celisto001]

This vid gets me pumped everytime i see it!! Just watching Chet over and over helped me Learn some sweet hardflips!!

[xZThaDanishDemonZx]

its awesome :D

[NegativeNick]

he just pulls his legs up and starts spinning and floating down stairs

[Skatertron2000]

this is a proper fuckin skate video

[t3kr0]

The first time I saw him was when public domain came out.

That was way back yeah.

Kinda cool to see how kids,from back then,grow & progress over such a period of time without losing the love for it.

Props for that!!!!

[julian65031]

bryan herman has the best hardflips

[bigbone38]

HOLD F11 WHEN HE POPS HIS HARD FLIPS!!!!

[mrvolley10]

@bigbone38 wtf my screen just spazed out

[Urtaget]

[Amir2110]

Bryan Herman's hardflips are much more buttery in my opinion

[Claymania7]

Sound of 90-s boards are like THPS games

digitalisation

[giogotico]

i just started to touch myself

[7lilhomie7]

globe may not be the most known or used brand but sure has some of the best skaters

[cnote181]

is style kinda reminds me of rodney mullens

theyre both sick skaters

[cody9889]

@cnote181 Well him and Rodney Mullen both skated on "A-team" over a decade ago, that probably has something to do with it... they're both sick though. No doubt.

[cnote181]

@cody9889 really? o thats cool then

[justinmert]

@cody9889 Chet was in old Powell videos about 91' , beleive he's still got it.

[oscarwism]

[mattfreedom2002]

[dschultz6072]

dude has the strangest squat style but i can't say he didn't inspire me back in the day. he made hardflip in tricks looks so simple.

[cbass5511]

Good part, good editing, good style. Nuff said.

[xxdanxx888]

[beastlyskater120]

SICK EDTING!!!!!

[smakabigmac]

chetty thomas

[MelvinVasquez]

damn omfg he was so ahead of his time...

i mean great style and pop,

really tech tricks,

he would of stepped up the skateboard business with those hardflip krooks

[batcoli]

i know chet

[deepthought85]

i dont know him but he came to my town for a volcom demo. it was actually him bam and some other heads. chets a cool dude, bam ehh

[DanielStacy]

he can skate that good in those baggy assed jeans and shitty shoes.. i dont even think i would want to see how badass he would be in tight pants and vulc soles.. it would probably make me quit skateboarding.

[CrucifyThyEgo]

baggy pants are just as easy to skate it, as are the shoes, its all personal preference, like personally for the tricks he's doing i'd totally take those bulky shoes

[DanielStacy]

nah man u can see ur board better and u have more flexibility with tight pants. but ya maybee some people would skate better in non vulc shoes.

[GlucoseExplosion]

3:15 switch indy 5?

WTF? Totally didnt expect him to skate park this good o.0

[shmn60]

what the fuck is it? 4:31

[Horaciow14]

backside hardflip, i guess, ive never seen that, so good

[thatoneirishkid69]

ghetto bird

[SandTrolls]

ghetto bird (hard flip back 180)

[laxdawgnine]

hardflip backside 180 and its not called a ghetto bird....a REAL ghetto bird is a nollie hardflip backside 180

[coolrockertfry]

right and this guy is who jimmy carlin named his hardflip back 180 after in his flatground vid. He calls it Chetty Thomas. This guy has SICK hardflips. its really impressive taht he did that trick on a stairset, doing the back 180 all in the air. but the hardflip fs krook was amazing 0_0

[beanegro1]

best at ghetto birds down stairs is either nate principato or ryan gallant

[laxdawgnine]

you have a point but you gotta respect Chet thomas cause he invented the trick....i hadnt even heard of nate principato but hes sick

[beanegro1]

yea, he's new lol

[laxdawgnine]

yeah the jimmy carlin vid is ridiculous.....if you wanna see more hardflip 180s over gaps then watch ryan gallant....and yeah that hardflip crook was crazy...

[haslem6848]

he inspires me to skate

[ShareUrCookiesMommy]

at 2:29 i think that was a switch hardflip

[FODskate]

fs flip/ 180 hard flip...not in switch
