hes so quick while maintaining such a beautiful, fluent style. Not to mention a great blend of creativity and skill. He just became one of my top 5 favorite skaters. 5:40 was a perfect pop out down that set
This dude really is probably one of the best ledge and bank skaters that i've ever seen. The way he can twist his body around so fast is insane and how fast he can pop another trick almost instantly after landing a trick is crazy... But does that make him the best skater ever like I hear people say..not really. You dont see the guy doin much down stairs. you see a little, but you can just tell that his expertise is more in the ledge area.
Why would he bother to do stuff down stairs just like any other kid out there is doing? This guy it's all about an amazing trick selection and a really creative and different approach to some hard and unique spots. It feels like his tricks are an absolutely perfect fit for every single spot he skates. You pair that with his smooth style and you have almost everything it takes to be a crowd favorite... Of course he is not the best skater ever... well at least not for everyone of us because we all have different tastes and preferences when it come to choose "the best skater ever". Some prefer the tech wizards, others the gnarly carcass tossing dudes and so on...and that's why skateboarding it's so freakin' amazing! But saying that Suciu it's not the best skater ever just because he doesn't skate stairs makes even less sense than saying he is the best skater ever!
Mark has a very east coast style since he lives in philly and skates mostly so thats why you dont see a bunch of big sets and huge handrails but dont get it wrong he can skate big shit just look at his old parts
Dude, he started with a switch backside flip down a hefty stair gap in his cross continental part... And ended it with a varial heel down the love gap. His versatility within skating is pretty insane, if you ask me.
as a youngster i disliked skaters especially young ones with an "old/adult" sense of style and meticulous trick selection....needless to say as ive grown up they are the skaters i have grown to respect the most their never faltering high ass standards for skateboarding have turned it into an art form that has its recognition and i am glad and now understand why so many of these intricate crazy skaters have such high esteem in the skate world/community. I enjoyed re watching this part and the re-edit.
+royce pavich im not american and what are you doing in life liking your own comments im not ven hating on suciu he is my fav skater so there was no reason to name him in this conversation conclusion : you are to stupid to think of arguments so you just curse like a idiot.
When people realize Suciu has always skated like this, commenting after he became Soty 2021, skateboarding would've took such a loss if he quit when he went to school
Truly the skaters skater. If you were to show this to one of those normal types that have never skated, they'd probably shrug and say whatever. They'd rather see some mega ramp madness. But you show this part to anyone that has ever truly skated, and they'll have that same fly catching expression they had when they saw guys part in mouse.
this kid understands the therapeutic powers that skateboarding has to offer. I have seen him many times lose his cool until he lands that one trick. he is truly persistent and deserves recognition.
+Richard Holzworth thank you bro! it's a feeling I just think any one who tried to land that one trick can relate to. when I see marks finished videos I know that there was alot of work behind it. whenever he's at the park he will be there trying a trick, sometimes for hours but he doesn't give up until he lands it. life is all about persistence.
what's the point of remixing a chill part, with another chill song? he might be a chill dude with smooth style, but isn't the whole point of a remix to show the same stuff in a different way? shoulda had something more progressive and hard hitting that can emphasize the bangers, or maybe some hip-hop to suit the whole remix vibe.. Dennis Busenitz part in Since Day One desperately needs a remix, that music and editing didn't suit his skating at all.
Everytime i watch at Mark Suciu video i remember why I love skateboarding.Best inspiration ..thanks Mark and Miguel Valle! Best duo of ever and forever.
I know everyone has preferences, loose wheels and loose trucks seem to be 'hardcore', your bearings will grind on your truck axel with loose wheels, you need to lock the centre bearing barrel for the bearing to work/roll properly, it will be smoother and capable of reaching higher speeds though gradually (t funk terrifies me bombing hills loose everything 😮), your brushings should all add up so that your main nut is just about flush to the truck centre bolt, your deck can only turn so much, loose trucks don't make it turn more, you really want no deck wobble so that all board sensitivity is tightly attributed to the truck pivot, again skating a loose board will probably make you a sharper skater coz they're crap and dangerous, you'll have a lot more control (and fun) bombing hills and landing gaps without wheel wobble and board looseness, IAM a failed maths teacher now skating midlife crisis, school teacher vibes on me 😅
You can always tell when a kid learned how to simply ride a skateboard before the the tricks come into play, like just balancing pushing falling. Refreshing skateboard skills
the spot at 4:09 is in minneapolis, it was a good spot but got capped like 10 plus years ago, the ledge he does the back tail flip out on is about all thats left and it is RIDICULOUSY difficult to skate, even with all the pros and ams here plus every skate team coming here to film for videos i believe it has had about a total of nothing done on it.
Thrasher, you continually posting Mark's parts in the beggining of the year, so to the end of the yaer a to the SOTY vote it is already not so actual, don't do it like that =(
