Rodney Mullen is incredible. He always makes me think of the movie, Gleaming the Cube!

Yeah, he's pretty sick, I bet he'd be even better if he pulled up his pants. I'm gonna go play Tony Hawk now.

Dude, I watched this original video about 2 years ago. He was at a park, and did EVERY possible trick at the park....now, out of respect, no one skates there anymore.

The devil went down to Georgia
He was looking for a soul to steal
And he was in a bind
'Cause he was way behind
And was willin' to make a deal.

When he came upon this young man riding
a board and ridin' it hot
the devil jumped up on a picnic
table and said,
"Boy let me tell you what:

I bet you didn't know it
but I'm a skateboarder too,
And if you care to take a dare
I'll make a bet with you
Now you ride a pretty good board boy
But give the devil his due
I'll bet a board of gold against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you."

The boy said, "My name's Rodney
And it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, your gonna regret
'Cause I'm the best that's ever been."

Rodney loosin up your mind and ride your
board hard 'Cause hell's broke loose in Georgia
And the devil deals the cards
And if you win you get this shiny board made of gold
But if you lose the devil gets your soul.

The devil threw down his board and he said,
"I'll start this show."
And fire flew from his fingertips
As he kicked up the row
And he slid the board down a rail
And it made an evil hiss
Then a band of demons joined in
And it sounded something like this

When the devil finished Rodney said,
"Well you're pretty good ol' son!
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done!"

<insert video> :D

The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he'd been beat,
And he laid that golden board
On the ground at Rodeny's feet
Rodeny said, "Devil, just come on back
if you ever wanna try again.
I done told you once,
You son-of-a-*****,
I'm the best that's ever been!"

Thats a phenomenal street demo....if I hadnt seen it, I would have said some of that sh#t was impossible. Skated for about 10 years then I felt the need to "grow up" damn shame. Might have to pick up a new set up and fall on my a$$ some more with the kids.

Rodney Mullen is the man! Great video. Hey Malcolm, I been riding around after being off for years. It's fun. Get a board and start riding. I stink now but oh well. If you guys like Rondey check out Almost Video's Round 3. It's Rodney Mullen vs. Daewon Song.

I think he has like a chemistry phd or something weird like that. i have a plan b video with him in it and he is crazy as hell! speaking of gleaming the cube, he was in it too. i remeber seeing an old vid where jeremy klein breaks his freestyle board and gives him a normal street board and he goes to town. brings back good memories!
