HOW RODNEY MULLEN INVENTED MODERN STREET SKATINGStep into the world of skateboarding history with Rodney Mullen, the man who forever changed the game and earned his title as the godfather of street skating. In this video, we dive deep into Mullen's groundbreaking contributions to modern skateboarding, from inventing the flat ground ollie to mastering nearly every flip trick that now defines street skating. With his innovative freestyle repertoire, Rodney redefined what was possible on a skateboard in the late 70s and early 80s, laying the foundation for the tricks and techniques we see today in street skating. But Rodney Mullen’s genius doesn’t just stop at skateboarding. His deep understanding of science and physics gave him the edge to push skateboarding into a whole new realm. From kinematics to aerodynamics, Mullen applied his scientific knowledge to create a level of skateboarding precision never before seen. In this video, you’ll get a front-row seat to the evolution of street skating, exploring Mullen's legendary tricks, his influence on modern skateboarding, and how his scientific approach elevated the sport to unimaginable heights.
