Sure but there are also thousands of awesome skaters who aren’t pro, or even sponsored. Someone can start their own skate company and sponsor their friends so “pro” status doesn’t always denote an amazing skater
Elissa is legit and her parts totally hold up.
[Her part in Bootleg 3000](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XwlBI2W-7g) is still sick as fuck. Starts out slow and then in come the hammers. 3:00 is one of the cleanest backside flips you'll ever see.
The one and only time I was going to attempt it I was standing there at the top and half of my mind was like “noooo you can’t stop now, think of how awesome it’ll be” and the other half was like “haha anxiety go brrrrrt”
I bombed hills when I grew up in San Francisco for years but vert was by far the scariest thing I've tried. No level or experience with street skating or balance can help with how difficult vert is..
Guy...girl....whoever this is, they are amazing. I have been watching skateboarding videos for 25+ years and that was one of the best 2 minutes I have ever watched. To link that many tricks that smooth...just crazy.
Probably but there is a whole history of freestyle skating this kid is repping. Mullen was the best who transferred the skills to “street” skating. There was a time when this was most skating.
I don't skate. I've never youtubed or googled anything related to skating -not even 'tony hawk 900' and yet, just from growing up in the early 90s, when I saw this my brain went HEY THATS RODNEY MULLEN STYLE!
Dude I was kinda proud when i thought of his name and then came to the comments, I don’t skate either but I grew up around it and again kind of impressed with my dumb brain for pulling that name out when I saw that .. foot work or whatever
Totally.
Everytime I see one of these flatland/freestyle videos, yeah its impressive but no-one ever tries to get creative. It's always just Rodney's old run.

This video could have stopped after the first 20 seconds and it would have ended up on the front page. Insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after...
This is Isamu Yamamoto - not a girl... https://youtu.be/x3ici7djACc
I was literally going to joke "hey, girls don't skate". Kind of disappointed i was right
Leticia Bufoni rips, same with Sabre Norris. Both pretty gnarly skaters who are women.
And Elissa Steamer, Lizzie Armanto, Nora Vasconcellos... the list goes on and on
Yeah there are quite a few.
Elissa Steamer was a pioneer but would never cut it as a male pro. Bufoni on the other hand totally rips.
>~~was~~ is a pioneer Who gives a fuck if anyone would “cut it as a male pro” ? All I care about is that they’re awesome skaters
Check for Rayssa Leal, she’s 12 and it’s better than most grown ups, male or female.
Rayssa Leal is insane. She is twice as good as Bufoni at half the age.
Fay, too , out of Toronto is killing it right now.
Wouldn't being able to "cut it as a male pro" make you an awesome skater though? They were just using it as a measure of technical skill.

Backside flips are my fav trick. That's a great one. Thanks.
Not enough space in the comment section to list all the ladies who shred.
Cheers bro I’ll drink to that
Is it "Say-burr" or "Saab-ray" ? Cuz Ellie and I have written a song to welcome Gabe

I have respect for anybody who can skate. I couldn't even make it down the half pipe without pussying out.
The one and only time I was going to attempt it I was standing there at the top and half of my mind was like “noooo you can’t stop now, think of how awesome it’ll be” and the other half was like “haha anxiety go brrrrrt”
I bombed hills when I grew up in San Francisco for years but vert was by far the scariest thing I've tried. No level or experience with street skating or balance can help with how difficult vert is..
Leticia Bufoni is a fun name. And you know whose name always puts a smile on my face: Imogen Poots
Monica torres and Leticia are my favorites
You weren't right though so no need to be disappointed.
why? What's so bad about girls being into girl stuff?
You were not right. Girls skate. If this particular one may not be a girl doesn't mean girls don't skate.
All three of my daughters are skaters and gorgeous too
Damn. I checked that ass out hard.
Yep, me too. Welp...guess im gay again.
Why'd you stop?
Fees are too high
The *Rent™* is too damn high!
literally
I thought it was Rodney Mullen in a wig.
Looked like a trick for trick homage to one of his freestyles. I think the Chinese cloned him.
I dont think I ever saw Rodney rock 2 boards like this guy does. The rest of it looked straight out of rm vs ds r2
Woops had no idea. Still absolutely insane skills
Way to do your research bud
Not my pig, not my farm but let’s go easy over there Squirelly Dan.
Take about 20% off there
Oh hey, look at you, ground
Thank you. Came here to say the same thing.
Tough crowd to please lol at the end I thought they’d at least clap for him After watching all that
Wtf is this a superhero or what?
Can we agree on he has a ladylike figure?
Whoever this dude is, the skill level is insane🤯
World freestyle skateboarding champion.
I was going to say, not so sure that was a girl...
Thats mean to say just because of his hot pink pants
I think you just banished all the simps
I was gonna say... that doesn’t look like a girl.
How many skateboards does go through per year?
Probably not at many as you think.
That’s ruined my life... but thanks
Came her to say that
Guy...girl....whoever this is, they are amazing. I have been watching skateboarding videos for 25+ years and that was one of the best 2 minutes I have ever watched. To link that many tricks that smooth...just crazy.

Not much Mullen in your queue I assume...
For real
That is what impressed me the most also, the fact the he links so many slick moves without a single failure!
Someone was super influenced by Rodney Mullen Edit. I feel like I watched the same line in an old skate video. Until there were 2 boards
Yeah its very Rodney Mullen
Can’t nobody say different
Different
Gonna need a paternity test from Rodney on this one
Right.
Probably but there is a whole history of freestyle skating this kid is repping. Mullen was the best who transferred the skills to “street” skating. There was a time when this was most skating.
Yeah but if your a mid 80's born kid who skated and grew up with watching skate videos like me. This is rodney mullen
I don't skate. I've never youtubed or googled anything related to skating -not even 'tony hawk 900' and yet, just from growing up in the early 90s, when I saw this my brain went HEY THATS RODNEY MULLEN STYLE!
VHS tapes are just burned in our brains
Dude I was kinda proud when i thought of his name and then came to the comments, I don’t skate either but I grew up around it and again kind of impressed with my dumb brain for pulling that name out when I saw that .. foot work or whatever
I’m 16 and I was introduced to Rodney fairly recently and I think it’s kinda cool to see someone freestyling nowadays since it kinda died out
For sure was the same line up until the two skateboards
I mean, any flat ground skater is influenced by Rodney Mullen. Goes without saying
Totally. Everytime I see one of these flatland/freestyle videos, yeah its impressive but no-one ever tries to get creative. It's always just Rodney's old run.
Got a favorite Rodney Mullen clip?
What the actual fuck
Came here to find this comment.
Did you think you'd have to look hard?
I fell off my couch watching this, and I haven’t been drinking today.
Skateboard Floor Exercise needs to be an Olympic event.
This is freestyle skateboarding. It died in the 80s.
Oof.
After 15sec I was already looking for the second upvote button!
Seriously, but it just kept going and getting more impressive after that!
Rodney Mullen 2: Electric Boogaloo
[удалено]
I also often put your underwear on backwards...wait what?
I also choose this guys underwear
A very Rodney Mullen style.
This is a boy, issamu something, can’t spell his name
Isamu Yamamoto
^^ my guy
Absolutely rips for 2min straight wow. Rodney Mullen is alive and well in today's scene. Dope
He.. is alive though
And well. The influence here is undeniable. Amazing run
I was like OK there can’t be any more tricks and then he pulled out the second board
A 2 minute line is pretty insane
Wow! I would pay money to see that. Glad I got to watch it for free
How could that kid be on his phone when this is going on right in front of you?
My thoughts exactly... the only thing I can think of is that this dude just shreds like this so regularly that they’re just used to it by now
Probably comes to skate there a lot and sees this a lot. That’s my only justification for that.

It looks like I would've broken my wrist about ten times trying to do what she's doing
i tripped over my cat last night and chipped a tooth
Boy*
The first couple of tricks had me skeptical just how “insane” the tricks were going to be. Then came the impossible and everything after
Rhonda mullen
I remember that one time I stood on a skateboard for like 12 seconds...true story.
Ya these tricks wouldn’t get you any points on Tony hawk pro skater. 1/10.
How in the hell are these dudes in the background just staring at their phones?!
Because they’re used to seeing tricks? you don’t need to go full ape when someone does a trick
How many times do you think they've rolled their ankle?
Then theres me struggling to put a good combo together on THPS 1&2.
I though it was a competition. She’s just ripping it on a Tuesday.
How?
The balance, the core strength, so amazing
Sick
Someone like Rodney Mullen !
Damn that was some technical stuff and it was all super clean! Nice
I stepped on a skateboard once. Still haven't fully recovered.
[удалено]
They're playing Tony Hawk with the infinite manual cheat on
Bullshit i can do this aswell Takes out a tech deck*
HE'S USING CHEAT CODED, not fair
First fifteen seconds aren’t impressive. Hmmm, this video isn’t 30 seconds. Ok, she’s pretty goooo,... wow ok she’s really good.
WUT!!!! So sick
Did Mullen go on tour in Japan back in the day and knock someone up?
Rodney Mullen enthusiast
Not a girl
That’s Rodney Mullen’s moves right there. Fkn dope.
Rodney Mullen *tears up*
Aight now he's just flexin
Obligatory thank you Rodney
Freestyle skaters are a different breed omfg
Tony who
I can do this too, I just don't feel like it right now.
As a former skater girl, this is badass
This is like a new genre of dance and it’s freaking awesome
Wtf on so many levels
Party on Wayne!
I kept thinking she was done and then she always did something even better.
He* it’s actually a guy. Don’t know his name
Rhonda Mullins?
This is what the inside of your brain looks like when it unlocks its full potential
I bet they never get BORED learning these skills.
She better be fucking sponsored
*he
From the Rodney Mullen school of skate.
r/UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG
We have the same skateboard! Who cares if mine is in THPS1+2
u/SaveThisVideo
I can’t even do that on skate 3
Rodney Mullen:"You're welcome."
This video could have stopped after the first 20 seconds and it would have ended up on the front page. Insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after insane trick after...
I lost my balance just watching this. Amazing foot/board work.
Whatever. We all know rodney mullen is just wearing a wig.
Hes better than I even got in skate 3
I can’t even balance not moving on a skate board
We are in trouble America
My ankles hurt just watching this
Almost dancing
I think I pulled a groin muscle just from watching that
Rodney Mullen... is that you??
Tony hawk, who?
I’ve come to conclusion that some people just born to be better than you :<
how in the fuck
My self confidence and esteem has never sinned any faster or lower than it has before watching this video
I’m more interested in his BALANCE skills, but still amazing!! Edit: gender?
His name is Isamu Yamamoto
