Tom Penny Did WHAT? 

I love how all the pros have Penny stories 😂

dude that line at Earl Warren is the most insane thing. We grew up skating there and you would be absolutely flying by the second bump from top. His switch ollie on 3rd bump is pretty much unbeleivable to me. I remember it was so hard to make that turn to hit the little stairs because you would be hauling ass.

Please get Tom Penny on the nine club 🙏🏼 🙏🏼 🙏🏼

The most beautiful switch frontside flip of all time.

Tom Penny is your favourite skaters favourite skater

No bullshit, after a tradeshow in LongBeach, there was a warehouse party w a miniramp, tons of pros, people etc. and Tom drops in does a couple 5050s and the lights go out, music goes dead, all you could hear was Penny still skating the ramp in complete darkness. Lights come back on, Tom still skating and the place goes absolutely nuts w cheers. Classic Penny. Unbelievable account to witness

I love how all Tom stories start off with "and for some reason Tom was there" Dude is such a mystery for real.

Bring back TSA! Sickest team ever

I skated a session with Tom and Rune in the OG Radlands by accident one sunny lunchtime in spring 1996 or 97 on a work day. IDNGAF who they were,I knew who they were but I was just a stoned, hungry, unemployed 22 year old. Tom's runs on the street course were like Rune said "he didn't put any thought into it", he just flowed and he landed everything first time, nothing was forced, always naturally flowing, no harsh abrupt sounds to his skating it was so on point.

nice to hear Andy Scott getting mentioned

Ordered the original issue of the Tom penny love shroom board from ccs mag at the height of flip. Shit was on back order for 6 plus weeks 😵‍💫 but once I got that thing I felt like a million dollars skating around the block.

Saw him back in the 90s in Essen, Germany at a Miniramp Show. His skating was out of this world.

Who had the story about Penny skating a mini ramp, and the lights cut out momentarily - in which time he landed a frontside flip in the dark

My fav of all times. Easily. Everyone wanted to be like Tom Penny in the 90s. Baggy pants, timbs, and big beanie on lol.

Rune has always been totally rad!

A skater who does it for the sheer sensation of doing it. Winning.

Penny is the best of all time..and guess what..He doesnt care! Thats what makes him even more sick.😂

I remember seeing these guys they ripped so hard Curtis McGann came and stayed at my apartment during the KIDS MOVIE era. He was so dope. Another amazing UK skater so bummed when he broke his ankle at Walemburg. This was pre Penny era but it lay the foundation I think for guys like Tom and other UK RIPPERS.

I read somewhere in the comments here someone saying they seen Tom as a child doing freestyle tricks on a freestyle board. That's all I need to hear, I'm ordering a freestyle set up.

Stuff just wasnt filmed as much in 90s. Usually u would have to arrange with guy who had a video camera. They were expensive, as were wide angle lenses. Ive skated with well known uk skaters as well as Americans and Europeans. Not often was there a filmer. We had photographer usually, but filming not so much. Meaning people like Tom did absolutely insane, unbelievable, dangerous tricks, just for the fun of it.

Met him just before he was sponsored by a tiny shop in Liverpool. He came down to Llandudno a little Welsh town and he was eyeing up a grass bank at the time and flipped it. It was cool hanging out with him but he was just a great sk8er then before he went nuclear.

Kelly’s laugh is elite, elite, elite.

UK skaters during the 90's only had VHS videos of mainly american skaters to reference, no internet and so we automatically thought that it only took a couple of attempts to make a trick as thats what the videos only showed and hence why Tom skated the way he did + add in bad weather. now day's you can watch a clip on RU-vid and they will show you a 100 attempts before the make.

Love hearing tom penny stories

I suggest you to organise a live interview with face cam him where ever he be will answer by positive, is smart and understand and knows people would love to here him.

Yes ,get penny on the nine club

His style is like no other 👑

Rune penny ❤

Artist ❤

Tom's.the best!

Tom Penny definitely a legend!

Tom must see everything like a curb a flat rail or a 1 foot mellow bank

I love how he said 5 to 10 tries was "struggling"

Get Penny on already. Fly him out etc, it'll be the most viewed Nine Club in history

Same Rune.. Tom Penny #1 All time ☝️😑

Penny is why they have the steezy G challenge in comps

Damn that’s such a sick story. I have memories with certain people like that

Reminds me of my homie Robert Cruz. Fool would do the most off the wall shit just cus.

411vm: 30 or 31. I can’t remember.

Legendary

Tom penny made me buy a flip deck and learn switch fs flips and

Tom Penny when?!

Tom stories are like fairytales

°°°

the guys a great skateboarder but i think the fawning over him is a little bit excessive, as alot of great skateboarders back then like willy santos, rick mcrank etc get forgotten and undermined when they were just as good

@6:38 The switch fs flip into that like super short mini ramp in the corner was too dope… it’s such a tight quick transition and he snapped all nasty into it

Tom Penny is so casual. What a legend

Did y'all put Tom Penny on the title to get me to click on the video? Well it worked lol

it was epic cause this was not even close to normal back then

I’m 40 now. I skated from 94-2002 Tom penny was my idol. Did all I could to skate like him. He was like this magical guy.

Back in 1989 me and my old crew were skating at the bus terminal in Nottingham England and Tom was there doing Mullen tricks on a freestyle board. We didn't know what he would become back then and he didn't say very much. A couple of years later the Nottingham skate shop Rollersnakes released the 720 video and we were like, Shit thats him.

Rune is such a legend in his own right but so humble. Much respect, to my personal fave vert skater.

That gap is kinda hard to land in the Tony Hawk games.

Honestly this show is awesome bringing back so many child hood memories!! If there any way to support this show tell me; I heard youtube did some demonetizing shi t so if there is any way I can contribute to keep this show going for the younger heads and me lol hit me up in comments

I still remember the feeling I got watching Penny skate the Phillips park in 411. It was the first time seeing someone skate like that, and it was also my first time hearing High and Dry by Radiohead and it blew my mind. Funny because it's just a few seconds, but the impact on me was huge.

I totally understand when Rune says Tom is his Gonz, I feel the same way. I even have my own Tom Penny's stories: my first encounter with him was in Paris "Palais de Tokyo". We were a bunch of guys skating on the top plaza (where it's no longer possible to skate) when suddenly a guy coming from nowhere riding quite fast threw a back flip over the big stairs first try (with the columns at the bottom, if you ever skated there, you know how insane that is), then there is a short path of flat ground before a set of 3 stairs that he jumps with a switch flip front. Everything was so smooth it felt like one movement. That was Tom Penny arriving at the spot. After that, he did some nose slides on the hip-level curb and sat down for the rest of the afternoon. After that we were all trying not to look ridiculous while skating 😜

That story is insaaaanity. Hope youre well out there Tom!

I remember back in 95 i seen Tom Penny at the skate park of Tampa for a flip demo, fs kickflip the pyramid with a broken ankle

Tom on the 9club 🤯🤯🤗💖

please get Chad Fernandez 😢 pleaseeeeeeee😁👍🏻👍🏻

just watched this earlier in the full interview.. happy to hear it again haha

Yuto def inspired by Pennny

When yall gonna get Penny on the show?

Best of 411 volume 2

Penny has the best style in the history of skateboarding.

Penny was a reason I started skating fury trucks, I also had a pair of his signature flip wheels. the ones with the shroom in the middle of the tread, and they were clear so you could only see the shrooms if you picked up the board and looked at the wheel.

as an American grom thru those years, it was always 'Did yah see Geoffs bs smith down the whatever?" or "Did yah see Pennys next legend." but Rune was not left behind in our stories, fluid on the pipe!

funny that being a skateboarder at that time it would be hard to tell if someone filmed tricks in the same outfit because people changed their clothes every other day ;)

**that FLIP wave board or whatever.. it was rippled/ribbed for pleasure and durability?? *they exist

Tom is an ideal example of “flow state”. The guy could just get himself to a place where he could exercise his talent and skill at his highest potential.

1:58 fucking hell first try Carlsbad

He wouldn't do it unless he just stumbled in there making a mistake

He still the biggest mystery and just adds to his skateboarding

The Transworld video part where he destroys a gap with a chain at the top!

Please get Penny on the show!

Reddest eyes I ever seen....

I believe Phillip's skatepark in Dallas was called rapid revolutions. That place was insane! Tom Penny, one of the most naturally gifted skaters ever. Looked like he was just cruising, until he did something nbd.

Flip nowadays is just a joke 😂,if one day they kick out Tom(wich obviously will never happen)the brand is done,only Tom tepresents Flip well,the other riders are clowns without attitude 😂

Penny makes everything looks so easy. A really talented skater with a ton of style. Great to see he riding until nowadays.

tom penny is one of those raw talent guys and i don't mean he doesn't put in the work and hasn't put in the work it's just so much smoother and cleaner than everyone else....what was that bank wth the chain on top? that was a wild session too. he basically landed every trick first try and that was that for the spot lol. according to legend at least lol

Rune is so humble. Absolute legend skating on the Tom Penny and Friends deck in Really Sorry

LMAO both Jeron and Kelly have infectious laughter

'Tom Penny haunts me in my sleep' - CKY
