Often when people mention skateboarding, everyone thinks Tony Hawk. Indeed he is an excellent skater, but this guy Rodney Mullen was the man who invented the “Ollie” as well as many other well known flatland tricks that kids break bones to today. Rodders has a unique skating ability and an exceptional choice in leg wear, The footage was shot in Japan the early 80’s, so we’ll let him get away with his trendy skating attire.
welcome Telemachus
this is why the guys at the top of the sport now owe it all to guys like mullen and hawk.......
g’day telemachus, nice first post.
at least mullen never sold out like hawk did, he’s a knobn
awesome tricks, but… is there anything more irritating than a constantly whooping american?
superb first blog by the way
Telemachus, welcome!
Thanks all 
That’s definitely a sick vid. Just a note to the editors. Mullen did invent a lot of tricks but the Ollie wasn’t one of them. Alan “Ollie” Gefland invented it in 1976. But Mullen can still put it down better than anyone I’ve ever seen.
Apologies I think I meant it to be one of the ones below, cheers for the heads up
- Ollie Kickflip
- Ollie Impossible
- Ollie Nosebones
- Ollie Fingerflip
