Nominay the best thing ever to have known Rodney Mullen? Btw 'Rodney Mullen - Parking Lot Session' is the best vid ever

[Nominay]

@Cityskater1998 it feels like a lifetime ago - it was such a long time ago, it's strange to have people talk about it in the current sense ... I couldn't have imagined that kids young enough to be my son would all one day be privy to it and interested

Rodney looks so chilled out just as his skating

I remember him saying that he didn't know anyone was filming him when he was just sitting there.

Cool vid! Rodney will always be my favorite, and the most original. I miss those days, Hawk, Gator, Mountain, Vallely, Mullan, Mcgill. My uncle Dave Dillberg was one of the best in the 70's at those downhill races, so it's been fun to watch the progression through the ages. Nice old videos, keep it up !

Check out the movie Ghost Chase. Obscure 80's movie but that song is featured several times.

That is amazing you've found this out. It's been a mystery to me for the past 20 years. Thanks.

the singer is BELOUIS SOME. Check out some of his vids here on youtube. The album, "Some People", was never released on cd (indeed i've held onto the cassette tape over the years...) but "Imagination" and "some people" can be found on various 80s compilations on cd.
