Kilian Martin: A Skate Escalation
Skateboarding has come a LONG way since i was old enough to try my luck on a piece of wood with 4 wheels. Back then my hero was Rodney Mullen, a true pioneer of mixing freestyle with street skating and doing things that, as a kid, pre-girls, would make me drool. Well, now we have Kilian and a whole new generation who continue to carry the flaming torch that Rodney carried for years into a new domain. This guy skates old-skool, he rips, he creates & most importantly he’s doing it in a new-skool kinda way – In short, he is a GOD! If you are not into skating i suggest you still watch this video, as it is almost an art film – AWESOME!

An infant on a skateboard would show me up any day, so I’m not sure how valid my opinion is…but this dude is awesome. I’m not sure if he is the next Tony Hawk, but he def. has the potential.

He’s good, but he’s got a long way to go to match the flip tricks and standstill of Rodney Mullen.

“hes god but fucking no way i will ever say he is a god”
You sir are retarded.
June 15th, 2010 at 7:41 am
I’ll go for ‘God-like!’
June 15th, 2010 at 12:52 pm
DO a kickflip cuntt woo hooo
June 15th, 2010 at 3:42 pm
where is the god part?
June 15th, 2010 at 5:09 pm
this guy is sick, and yea, Jonathan is a dumbass.
Anyone know what song this is/the artist?
June 15th, 2010 at 5:11 pm
@JP101, Tony Hawk is a sellout, and I hope this guy never goes down that road.
With that being said, I like old school skating as much as the next person, but this video could have really done without all the slow-mo bullshit and HORRIBLE music.
June 15th, 2010 at 5:30 pm
liked the music and editing but i have seen better skaters. i wouldnt go as far to call him a god but he is good
June 15th, 2010 at 6:05 pm
He is veryyy good, but not as good as what I have seen Rodney Mullen do. This guy seems very repetitive. Same variation of tricks on and off different things. He is still fantastic though, nice job.
June 15th, 2010 at 9:09 pm
Justin, could you beat him in a spelling bee?
June 15th, 2010 at 10:15 pm
sick video, i liked how he mixed in some technical ground game and some stair tricks and grinds…may not be rodney mullen but no one will ever be that good.
June 16th, 2010 at 12:58 am
i like poop in my mouth
June 16th, 2010 at 4:05 am
fag
June 16th, 2010 at 6:17 am
ok well first at 1:05 his wheels touch… and at 1:23 his foot touches. some of the other manuals are pretty wild but everything else are just lame party tricks. basically anyone who considers this dude a god doesnt know much about skateboarding
June 16th, 2010 at 6:43 am
I hate to burst your bubble jonathan but you are a fuckin queer bag. And from what it looks like.. you might have a slight form of Downs.
June 16th, 2010 at 7:52 am
Well, i liked it!
June 16th, 2010 at 9:01 am
I lol’d, this guy couldn’t hold Rodneys jock.
June 17th, 2010 at 7:38 am
not that impressive maybe in the late 80’s with all the spinning around, although the flip to the side was cool but this is all flashy stuff im more in the mullen and koston styles
June 18th, 2010 at 1:19 am
everyone has to remember this kid has a whole life of skating left to work on new stuff… so i would go with “god in training”
June 19th, 2010 at 3:48 am
i still love poop in my mouth
June 22nd, 2010 at 10:53 pm
this no Rodney Mullen
June 23rd, 2010 at 4:51 am
a kid in a wheelchair could perform better.
June 23rd, 2010 at 6:44 am
Jonathan is right, “I bet I could bet him”. That’s like dumb and dumber when Floyd bets Harry that he can get him to gamble.
June 23rd, 2010 at 8:40 am
stuff about Mullen stuff about grammar stuff about poop
June 26th, 2010 at 2:26 am
The Song is by Patrick Watson. Not sure of which one but thats all you need for a good start.
