DAEWON | Documentary | Transworld Skateboarding 

criminally underrated dad joke

i took my comment down of “skateboarding is fun” to post it in this reply. this video def makes me thankful for skateboarding

@@drewfinn2 skateboarding is fun

Since daewon what?

@@dylanwadja dude... say it out loud... since dae won

grisham the way Rodney talks is beautiful

His emotions are genuine. It's cool to see all these dudes talk highly of each other. So much better to see and hear than drama. I love it. This film made my day.

I hate it but hey each to there own I guess

Rodney sounds pretty fucking gay

Lapis Eye but wait aren’t u pretty fuckin gay?🤔

Mac Mac lmao

"thats not the point" - ... alright maybe not, but that dickhead shouldve respected the risk involved lolol. that guys an ass

"my rufff"

Always some asshole who doesn’t understand skateboarding and try’s to stop it yet people should try to encourage it because it’s a positive activity . Unfortunately some people don’t get it and get in the way 😞

There’s always gonna be skater haters . But skating is greater .

He's like a god that doesn't know he's a god.

seems like a serial killer

His skating is rough and smooth at the same time.

People on the spectrum are nice people. Watch his talks and interviews so you know and can quit using the word, "seems." They have the same fucked up dad unfortunately. Not the same, but similar. I feel for them both. I love them both. I love you too.

I did lol

He's super intelligent & definitley on the spectrum. Such a humble, thoughtful, talented legend. :D

*did

GG haaaa gayeee

Yea bro:( so much love in that man

Great skater greater person

That part hit me!!

I shed a tear....heavy as fuck.

That one got even the skate-gods choked up

@Brick Schitthouse everybody grows and progresses and (some) want to create their own legacy. I mean I'd say that's just natural progression mate. Why be under someone your whole life if not for a lack of ambition?

Same. It’s so touching, seeing how much he really cares about Daewon. I remember being in middle school seeing the VHS where they battled each other.

Rodney is an eccentric genius. He doesn't say things that he thinks will "sound good", he just speaks from his heart, all the time. The reason he sounds so deep and emotional about everything he says, is because he is deep and emotional about his thoughts, at all times. For the godfather of street skating to have that much passion for his craft, his friends, and life in general, knowing who he is as a person is humbling, and reaching his level of compassion and intensity is something I strive to accomplish day after day. Rodney's weird. But, he's the best kind of weird.

@@JReaLBiz86 i couldn't have said it better. He has the mind of a astrophysicist, applied to skateboarding

@@JReaLBiz86 Very well put and I couldn’t agree more. The only bone of contention is that you referred to Rodney Mullen as the “Godfather of Street Skating.” I consider him more the “Godfather” of Technical Skating. Even considering all he’s done on a skateboard since late 1991, I’ll always think of him as the freestyle skating savant first, then the World Industries first mate, then the born again street skater Plan B darkslider, then the video game avatar, then the skate doc talking head, and finally the TED talking elder statesman. Gonz is the Godfather of Street Skating.

Cause he's a weirdo.

@Jay Dizzle If knew him at all, you'd know he's a weird dude.

😥😥😥😪😪😪ITS SO TENDER😭😭😭😭😭😭

Yeah I got hit with them emotions too, he's just so wholesome and genuine. A true role model of a human being.

Rodney Mullen always sounds so pretentious

Cami I would encourage looking up the definition of pretentious. Dude has interesting, maybe even strange, mannerisms, but I wouldn’t say pretentious in the least.

@@bboyeducator Not by a long shot. Definitely a little eccentric though. But it's why we love him lol

I know right!?!? I def always thought he looked like one of the nicest, most sincere, passionate skater/ guy of all time.

autism has that on folk.. i’m very close to rm on the special part myself so i may speak. it’s very hard to put into words. like he said. song is one of a

i’ve watched this 14 times now you may find out why

wondering if I was the only one lol rodney is so sincere you can hear it through his inflection

I know hahah can almost feel his severe sadness it almost hurts

"well I guess it's just us then Rod" I think I've got something in my eye

that's an awesome story. Would love to meet him one day and a signed board with be the cherry on top

I bought a Tech Deck half pipe ramp set and it came with a DVD and Daewon skateboard :3 I still have the fingerboard right here it is my favorite :3

I felt the same about Willy Santos back in the day

I'm from Torrance

iamnotanumber iamnotanumber forreal pure inspiration

download it

Dude I’m not even a skater but I love the culture, I’ve watched this doc 3 times already . It’s so good!!!

youtube to mp4 download

It bothers me that this generation has a lot of guys that rip on Rodney because "his style sucks".... his style is unique by todays standards for sure, but the fact of the matter is he invented half the tricks they try to "steeze out" so I'm going to say he can do it however the fuck he wants. He's one of, if not the, most genuine and passionate people to ever step on a deck and has contributed more to modern street skating than almost anyone. On pure, natural talent Daewon is probably better... but in terms of impact and straight up mastery of skateboarding there's no one that touches Rodney.

@@loveandnapalm bruh, nobody's hating on Rodney here...i get that its a wide spread infection these days, but i think in 2019 most people are over the fake Daewon vs Rodney rivalry. rodneys and legend and an innovator. daewons a legend and an innovator. its Almost gang gang forever

@@ianmaynard7249 Bruh I didn't say anyone here was hating on him did I?

it’s pretty whatever

Go to heck butters

InConTruth ..you should checkout epic’ly latered..on the vice channel

Foreal I was gonna type the same shit you said. Hes a true legend and a one of a kind style. Nobody has the same style 🤘

He's a different kind of legend too. Too legit to quit fo real

need one on richie jackson next

@@shaggybiasi8109 I♡richie

Lol! Came on my phone just to make this comment but seriously tho, nowadays I don't think people realise how much of a big deal Ryan was during those years. You think Nyjah is hyped now? You have no idea. Sheckler was it during the early 2000s. Here's this lil kid that's going bigger than everyone else out there, winning all the comps and getting his dick sucked for a bag of Cheetos. Lol. Then Life of Ryan happened. Nigga fell harder than the boulders Daewon be skating.

@@theren8311 nyjah is a big deal because she used to be a girl and has recently transitioned into a man. Nyjah also benefits from affirmative action. Fortunately, skateboarding evolving into an Olympic sport, can't cry about reparations facing the likes of aurelian and Shane o'neil and all the Brazilian niggaz like Kelvin hoefler and Luan oliviera.

@@jimyt6578 wtf did I just read ?

Rest In Peace Phelps

One of the best lines in the whole thing. I was watching it with my friend and we both laughed so hard when he said that! RIP phelper!

Thanks for sharing. Cool story.

Nice memories and pictures you shared here. Thank you Sir.

He drew dinosaurs, makes since he had the little dinosaurs graphics

Lethal Injection260 both Rodney and Daewon.

He invented the thing

He really is man. And it's genuine... not contrived. I think some cats try to come across that way and it's so easy to tell when it's disingenuous. Rodney is a real one through & through.

He is the ONLY celeb I'd like to meet. THE ONLY ONE. I don't have heroes. Rodney is really inspiring though.

you hear it in his voice

@Brick Schitthouse sorry, I noticed that now, Rodney Mullen doesn't really have a posture !!! Well remembered...

@Brick Schitthouse show, my dream!!!

SUPREME GAMEPLAYS.. don’t forget the other master ‘ Chris Haslam ‘

@@GettheFouttahere74 woooooooow!!! Chris Haslam is other myth of skate!!!

Update 3 best skaters: Chris Haslam, Daewon Song and Rodney Mullen.

So heavy!

bMd Phelpster forever rip

I'm confused. Is this a story of a transgender skateboarder 🛹 or something? I'm even questioning my own sexuality based off watching this shocumentary already. Which side should I choose guy's? Daeone or DaeaotherWon?

@@daixer3156 ☠️

The mind is sharper and keener in seclusion and uninterrupted solitude. No big laboratory is needed in which to think. Originality thrives in seclusion free of outside influences beating upon us to cripple the creative mind. Be alone, that is the secret of invention; be alone, that is when ideas are born. That is why many of the earthly miracles have had their genesis in humble surroundings. -Nikola Tesla

Critically underrated post.

Felt the same way. What makes it cool, is the fact Daewon is that type of guy. Believable.

That's awesome. Thanks for sharing that. Whatever happened to the board if you don't mind me asking?

Great story ... I can say that I beat him in a casl California amateur skate league contest ...🎆🎆🎆 Highlight of my life lol. GREATEST OF ALL TIME !!

@@mexifoodlover no way bro

@@gibronnaqeelandries3406 name is Leonard Crowley rode for zorlac and a gang of other Co.....

I agree but man there's a lot of insane tech stuff these days. Just in the last few years there's some guys that are really, really impressive from a technical standpoint like Suciu and then there's guys like Jaws that are pushing the limits of how big shit can get, and then there's guys like Joslin and Evan Smith that combine insane technical skill with the gnarly shit and then there's the robots like Shane that stomp everything first try no matter how insane it is and THEN there's the guys like Nyjah who combine all of that and seem bored 5-0'ing a 25 stair or doing straight up video game shit like 270 back lip hollywood high 16. The bar is much, much higher than it was back then but Daewon and Rodney were so far above the bar that it took 15 years for everyone else to catch up. I put Daewon in that same category with Koston and Mullen in that if there was a game of skate to determine the fate of mankind I'm picking one of them because they can first try shit no one else would even think of doing in the first place.

@@loveandnapalm - did you just use 'tech' to describe Sucui? 😭😭😭😭 He's a ledge specialist. But yes I also agree with what you said.

@@moegerms Think about all the flip-in/out shit he does, and the crazy combos he puts together on those ledges. He's got an insane bag of tricks. He's a ledge specialist but that doesn't mean it's all he can do... that's just mostly what we have to skate out east.

Wow this covid shit has been going for more than 5 months.... Damn, If it goes a year then ill take the conspiracy more serious.

@@dizzychizzy1 and this hoax is still going on..

You are an idiot

André Felipe one of the best ever

@@anthonymcgee3248 One of the best that will ever exist

Classic phelper... 💯❤️

I was watcing Daewon at the park and he gave me his board cus i didnt have one. I still got it. I want to get it sign.

Thats fucking awesome

NO!!! He's overrated!

Kim Jong-un lmao your name and pfp

@@memyself1176 your underrated. I thought u died?

Rodney: “just like I invented some flat ground tricks- whatever.”

@@memyself1176 Nah you just a hateful miserable person.

Doesn’t almost make impact decks. You can say they’ve impacted your life in many ways lol pun intended

damn that means I was in 1st or 2nd grade, fuuuuck. made a huge impact

Same, almost 28 in July. All I did growing up was watch Daewon. Fucked my shit up so many times trying shit that he did haha

@@jonsolo9526 hahhaha me too, rolled my ankle so many times. Sprained all kinds of things. My mom hated it, lol.

@@alexhsenger Haha yeah. That's pretty funny lol.

Hang in there buddy. Great things are to come!

ZOZO you got this man. When life gets you down toughen up that chin and walk away with your head held high.

Leave out every racist skater that was big in the 90s, but continue the documentaries.

Kieran Dillon Well late 80s and 90s then. Natas was still active in the 90s. I just love that whole early era of street skating

I would love to see a kirchart doc

@@uhwhatdoing Agreed. Who are we leaving out?

Jason lee

petersusia1 MJ could still put out a fully flared part today.

@@capo_di_capi MJ's fully flared is one of the most beautiful parts ever filmed.

Just watch his nine club, its like 3 hours long.

Please do an MJ one. It will be gold

Vice skateboarding Marc johnson did one .

Oh yeah! That tail slide hahaha :D That was gold!!!!

well put

Yeah lol. Had to double-take that one.

"hang on, gotta pop out"

have you seen Carts Of Darkness?

@@jhowardsupporter bro! I have and that is by far one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. Lmfao its hilarious I honestly had a hard time believing it was even real. Thats Canada for ya lol

He cracked me up throughout this thing. I wanted the video to cut over to him more. Some good Daniel Castillo moments: 6:18 Kareem said he was black. D'won. 7:49 Shiloh was supposed to be there. Kareem didn't call him. 16:34 27:33 30:12 34:56 39:50

same dude , you put my thoughts into words

He's got loot

Hes got more bread than a Bakery

You said this a while ago but he has just over a million dollars so he is doing good.

He sold dvs for a good bit around '12 I think. I know Tim Gavin (Wolfman went to Girl) started a new company after but I didnt ask if daewon has anything to do with it. I skated with tims nephew, and we got a bunch of gear and swag. I have a few girl decks still. I have an unused WI deck from 98 too.

@@highanglelarry Daewon didn't own dvs he rode for them.

do it for you man, that part is history now. Edited as it was. Maybe then was an error, now is history.

Which tribe track was it at the premier?

@@dustinstoner6195 i think they meant the tribe track was replaced right before the premier

[AVHD] yeah... a historical error. 🤦🏻‍♂️

rodney and daewon are my childhood heros!

Wouldn't be an Almost video though... however they could do Almost Vs Thank You - Round 1

Roof top living

+ Gil Flavah Roof tops are the picnic tables natural environment aren't they? Maybe we need a documentary on the secret lives of Picnic Tables.

Could you imagine eating shit . Daewon makes it look easy .

mysterlune lol its ok :) just remember its not too late to delete a reply. :)

@@gilflavah9686 ha! my bad. misread your initial comment. but i get it now, lol.
