I think he's one of the most technical skateboarders there is. If you don't think so then just watch this:

He has amazing balance and technical skill and yes this a very random thread.

haha i love people who arent skaters talk about skateboardign and think they know what their talking about. have you guys seen what chris haslam is made of? that guy is a fuckin nut with tech. daewon is sick and so is derek fukuhara. and everyone who says rodney mullen is the best skater ever should be dropped into a pungee pit

totally dude. he's a god. he throws the same shit i throw in the tony hawk video games. everyone else is like 'OOOHHHHHH MY GOD, KICKFLIP DOWN A STAIRSET!!' it's nuts how far ahead he is. he's so oldschool. the only guy i've seen even come remotely close to mullen is daewon song. that kid's got some sick tricks

And I mean that as in overall, Mullen obviously kills anyone from a pure technical standpoint.

To whoever said rodeny mullen owns street skating is a fucking idiot... well I mean I guess I understand where your coming from, but please make yourself a little more clear..

rodeny mullen is amazing at skating on FLATground..... dont get me wrong... but he's fucken terrible at true street obstacles which involve any matter of staircase, rail of any form like that. there are soooooo many more shredders out there that own him in the real street area.

skaters like Danny Scher, Brian Hanson, or Richie Belton destroy true terrain up.

although rodeny mullen is a legend and one of the greatest skaters in the history of skateboarding (mainly for inventing so many important tricks) and possibly the most known to skateboarders and people who have never touched a board.

It just annoys me to see such unaware people towards skateboarding only know of rodeny mullen or state that he is better than everyone in the skate industry.

rodney mullen is crative, unique, and has more talent than any other skater ive seen. daewon's good, so is chris cole, but rodney is on a different level.

Terrible at rails?

Dude, he is 10x better than you will ever be on rails. I don't know a ton about skateboarding, but darkslides, 5-0 360 flip 50-50 is pretty much the opposite of terrible.
