Reynolds GOAT, Full lengths, Baker vs Zero

Reynolds GOAT, Full lengths, Baker vs Zero

Comments

Damn he is the greatest hater

נָאוֹר

If the full length disappears then that gives companies the excuse to cut teams down to 3 or 5 people instead of 8-10

reynolds doesnt kiss his son on the lips

On the land into a manual I couldn't care less if the tail taps, as long as I can see your balance is in check and your not riding back on your tail. It's only really in the middle do I see a scrape as a lack of control.

correcting peoples speech because they technically dont use the right term, but the context in which they speak is well understood. it just makes you sound autistic. context is a language of its own. very human

Leon Karssen

big agree on the correcting ppl on naming stuff - this translates imo to grammar policing/etc. if you know what is meant then the language did its job

David

I hold my ground 😈

Nah that dude can hold a manual, Reynolds has held manuals and jumped down a million sets for a million years. He’s proven himself, Felipe is in the process of proving himself and what he does in the prime of his career is important. No pass

I was only frustrated with the hot take on Reynolds wheelies because of the opinion you voiced about Felipe Nunes’ wheelies. I think excusing Reynolds because he is 40 and a legend but criticizing a disabled skater is pretty weak in my opinion. I’m paraphrasing here but I think you said something like “it just isn’t our place to call out Reynolds”, but I think that applies much more heavily to Felipe. Think you got the wires crossed on that one.

Jerry bag of suck w ted

All to the sweet voice of Lou Reed, perfect.

was hoping to hear you talk about zach's part i think people are wrong for saying he shouldnt be pro but this was forsure one of the best all around videos ive seen in awhile, all the skating and the feel of the whole thing just flow nicely, perfect way for baker to age like you were saying

AllMids

Enjoyed this one a lot. So great to see Reynolds still skating like this. Thank you for covering it. Switch tre turnaround - didn't see the weight shift/gain in momentum first time round. Super interesting, a rare exception to the rule.

Jial

im also just a lil emotional bich sometimes tho soooo

Alexander Cantu

I only watched the whole thing once but for some reason reynold's baker 4 part is the only skate part to ever make me actually cry

Alexander Cantu

I too generally think Reynolds can do no wrong but I hated the sw tre to turnaround. So ill-conceived IMO. Like a kid that just learned the trick and desperately wanting to film it, despite it making no sense whatsoever in the context of the line/spot. Kinda made me wonder if he's losing his touch. Kickflip was nice though

Josh

Facts. everything.

Maksym D Hutsulak

I wonder if reynolds edited this.. He's the goat of that shit too since he edited most of the baker vids himself

smellytoe_nail

Crash you pesky marsupial damn you! Agreed it was basic

Eugene

No he’s perfect

Reynolds is sick and an OG, but that doesn't mean he is completely free of all criticism. Don't hate a little fanboy-ing but he's definitely still a human with flaws like everybody.

Cormac Cordery- Cotter

Reynolds was troll-scraping for sure ha ha

Rama

It's basic, but not bad. The clothes don't make the man.

Crash

17:40 is a bad fit

Eugene

Probably because your older so you understand the pitfalls of that party lifestyle etc. I think teens now see all of Bakers back catalogue and get a similar impression of it that you likely did back then, plus the new stuff. It is THE degenerate skate brand for people who aren't into "Hip Hop" asides from maybe Anti Hero

Eugene

I dunno Dollin isn’t very good, he’s like a stunt man more than anything. I think a lot of the younger guys still party and stuff but it’s not as essential to Baker’s brand identity anymore. I do think though you’re right to say it’s still part of what Baker is, I guess to me it doesn’t seem like it’s front and center like it used to be

1

True but the same could be argued for any baker rider at any point in time. My point is that the IMAGE of Baker is in many ways still the same to kids

Garrick Slings

I don’t think kids like Kader cause he smokes and does stupid shit. I think they like him because he’s extremely good

1

Kader is why most kids love Baker and he still acts exactly how Reynolds and the OG team used to, just smoking and doing bad shit and such so the overall image or what makes the brand popular is still very much the same imo

Garrick Slings

Full lengths should die, saying nollie cab is ok, Zero is outdated and the VX is terrible are all hotter takes then most of the takes in your let’s argue videos

Garrick Slings

Pretty sure Brady announced his retirement this year. Lets hope Reynolds has some more years ahead of him.

Brian Peterson

Reynolds is like the Zephyr of the graffiti world... influential with the big stuff like panels and straight letter(handrails and big stairs), but when it comes to handstyles (flat ground, manuals and ledges) he is not a style master mind (Spider mastermind Doom 1)

Eugene

shut up, eugene

JP

Rare fanboying is permitted

1

And it was a glorious steamy take on George P, that's why I subscribed for the unfettered comments. More of that less of the Reynolds fan boying please. I get that your trying to be more positive but it goes against what you said in that George P video about skaters being critical over skating, you've got to rest on your laurels with such a strong name as Gifted Hater...

Eugene

I did take a steamy shit on George P a week ago for 40 mins

1

Gifted Hater is slowly becoming more kum ba yah.. is this the beginning of the end?

Eugene

Why did he take the tricks because the spot is in the middle of a main road? When he could have easily found a manual pad up a gutter without traffic to re do the trick on..? Sloppy form.

Eugene

The reality is that a more simple cleaner trick would have looked better then a nose scraped more difficult trick.. Like a simple 180 manual, or a fakie shuv it manual instead of a fakie tre manual.. His disposition doesn't make sense when you think about it... Do a difficult trick badly because he's too lazy to clean it up instead of doing a lower effort easier trick very well, and if he got the lower effort trick wrong it would take less energy to re do it multiple times..?

Eugene

Reynolds scraping on manuals is very questionable. At his status he has a duty as a stalwart of the culture. Younger skaters look up to him, and if they start seeing him scraping on manuals and taking the clips, then they'll likely start scraping on manuals also and thinking it's acceptable. This knock on effect degrades the culture slowly over time by lowering the standards.

Eugene

Me too, and I feel like it should be mentioned how that same emotion that haters describing in this video, all the love and admiration, stay gold is that for me.

centar_rick

same with jamie thomas.. he always seems to have high gravity turned on

Leon

Reynolds has aged like a fine wine. I'm glad he realized he doesn't need to jump down wallenberg anymore and people just want to see him skating for fun. Bakers art being so good has a lot to do with Spanky who took over as art director a few years ago.

Quesly

Reynolds is goated furshur. You know what else is goated though? Blind What If. Corey Sheppards part is superb.

Gabriel Snyder

I've noticed that people tend to lose pop as they get older, like Koston for example. Not Reynolds.

Iriemon

They announced baker has a deathwish 2. The first one was a full length so we'll see...

JP

glad to see i wasn't the only one who got emotional about this vid!

microwaverr

completely reasonable

Ni Ag

My friend used to always play as Reynolds in THPS because his name was also Andrew.

Crash

Goddamnnit. I love Reynolds so much.

Logan Jones

style conquers all

spicy peter

i really felt what u said in the end that there is pressure to have an edgy pick of fav skateboarder oder musician. because like 2 days ago i thought about who really my favourite skateboarder is because i wanted to be prepared when the people at the skatepark ask me so i thought about someone else than reynolds (who is my fav skater) i couldnt. what i wanna say is that like what you like

spitting_goblin

i think baker doesnt stand for something completely different than it used to. maybe reynolds does but tfunk and tyson and kader still have the smoking and drinking down pretty heavily. But i like the direction baker is going. well adjusted to modern times and a nice middle ground between being cool but also not being dumb and unnecessarily pro drinking and smoking

Bruno

had the exact thoughts about this when watching it, I think Baker will never not be cool lol

Jeremiah Johnson

I feel like Reynolds knew damn well he scraped and could not care less for being called out about it

Lucas Thurston

Nollie cab is stupid, because we already have a actual cab, the full cab. Named after mr.cab.

Kedrick Bryant

Yo bless up we need some more world genius collin is fuckin hilarious

Sam

I don’t care if Reynolds scrapes on the manual here. And it’s not just because it’s Reynolds. the trick looks good. If it looks rad idfc
