@d.j.casanova960 3 года назад

I feel how Mike feels on a deeper level than most. I’ve skated my whole life, it’s my passion, there were times when the only thing that kept me going was the thought of spending an hour at a spot trying to big flip a 10 stair or something along those lines. I was in a car wreck in 2014, met an 18 wheeler at an intersection head on, we were both going 60mph, I ended up spending the next 6 months in a wheelchair, then the 6 after that relearning how to walk. The only thing that kept me going was skateboarding, I refused to even think about the fact that I may not ever be able to skate again. Now here I am 5 years after taking my first initial steps again without needing crutches or anyone’s help and it just isn’t the same, I can’t even ollie off a 4 foot ledge without my legs feeling like they wanna give out. I work out everyday and it still isn’t the same, and I’ve come to terms with the fact I’ll never be able to skate the way I used too.

@mrmedl4 3 года назад

@imDezrt 3 года назад

@@mrmedl4 Agreed, but I don't fault him for keeping skateboarding at arm's length during a time when his peers are still near the top of their game and putting out parts. Pro athletes need something to put an obsessive focus into and I'd assume Glassy is his ticket for now. When something isn't as fun as it used to be, it's easier to change priorities around. It's natural for people to gravitate towards things with huge growth opportunities and skateboarding doesn't really offer that to him anymore

It ain’t the age; it’s the hardware that limits us, unfortunately; and people tend to forget that because it’s not their legs. Much love from MA.

The best of the best always get injured. I'm 31 and as everyone does who's heavily into skating I looked to the past before absorbing the future generations of skaters. John Cardiel was a massive flag in dedication and aggression accompanied with style and great personality. I feel the same way about Mo, he left his mark as they said in a huge way, I followed Mo as he was coming up and love his style in everyway. Personally feel like one day he'll give alot more to skateboarding just in a different way. His parts were and still are the parts that I watch before I go skate. Also, why has someone not filmed Mo VS Koston golfing?

His Fully Flared part, with da smooth skating, editing, effects and the Arcade Fire song was so damn good, it was pretty sweet! Nostalgia man, we love you Mike! And of course we remember you dude ❤️

In 2013 i developed like the harshest type of Bipolar Disorder. People might that’s a joke, but it ended my carreer. No energy for 8 months then manic episode and hospitalization. Finally I get good meds, but after 15 years of skating I basically slowly hung it up. Because I can’t do it the way I used to and it just fucking sucks. And everytime I try pushing it, it still doesnt work out at all. I feel you Mo.

Love the way he stays in control. Shitty situation but awesome mindset. True legend.

Used to watch fully flared every day before I'd go skate. Mike Mo's legacy in skating will last a lifetime for the generation that grew up looking up to him!

He can skate ....he just can't do stunts .....big diff.... ultimately none of these guys skate. . They're stunt men . Unless you can't stand up ...you can skate. I surfskate ....it's the essence of skateboarding ... everything else is stunts ....no matter how cool it is ...it's stunts ....not skating Ps. Skateboards were never intended for what is going on today ... It was "sidewalk" surfing ...

I love Mike Mo passion and style. I had a brain injury 2006 from skateboarding. My life passion. I have never touched another skateboard since. I get the fear. Physicality is different. I am happy to see he doesn't have a mental block. It's a physical block. That is very important to skaters with bad injuries. Thank you for this interview. Please interview skaters with TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) from skateboarding. That is a very important piece that is ever recognized. Please highlight this in any way possible. Please. Awareness if at all else. Thank you I loved this. I am a subscriber now. Again thank you.

Kids these days don’t get how good this guy was . Truly sad that we won’t ever see him at is max potential

Even as an older adult kid, I couldn’t imagine not skating. I play it safe now, but I can only imagine his torment. Respect to his humbleness and humility. #MIKEMOFOREVER
