  • A lot of people can skate better than Natas now but back in the 80's he was unparralleled. True pioneer

  • @Leaffan93rules

    wrong. Skating is skating and it always will be. "New era kids" arent real skaters. Im 16 and Im in love with skateboarding. I look up to people like Natas because their original and they're the reason skating is what it is today.

  • @Leaffan93rules Yeah, but they forget that before then, nobody did it, and now people have been doing them for 20+ years. Thats why when a kid says "this board/trucks/shoes are too heavy/wide/long etc. I always say. Really? Guys were pulling kickflips 20 years ago on boards almost twice as wide and heavy.

  • @Leaffan93rules * A lot

  • @Leaffan93rules or on a ten pound board with eraser-like wheels, without any vision into the future of skating. natas was right there, inventing those tricks, breaking into uncharted territory. kids today were not there, & they don't know what it felt like.

  • @benaberry thank you! everyone cares way to much about doing certain tricks now and days and the pure reason for skateboarding is gone, fun.

  • The first time I ever saw a wallride, it was Natas, I lost my mind. I mean I lost my mind, I tried so hard to ollie like that, we had no ramps hardly in my town it was all street skating and Natas, Vallely, Gonzo, Mullen, those guys WERE skating!!

  • anyone who saw him ollie, wallride, or handrail in 87 knows. Anyone who didn't, doesn't. End of story

  • im glad this came out ,people should know about natas ,mark gonzalez, julien stranger,john cardiel ogs like that

  • I dare anyone to have as original thought as Natas / Gonz / Mullen / Mike V / Jay Adams.......possibly Hawk.

    These guys didnt follow any thing but just a feel, thats it. These days its ohhh you cant do a flippty flippy flip, whatever, create something original.
