Rodney Mullen #5.



The Mutt.

What really needs to be said about Rodney? He invented most of the tricks everybody does today, won nearly every contest he entered, improved board technology, and is still doing things nobody else can do.

We gotta vote again in the SOTY poll? My choice didn't make the first cut and I went with Brandon Westgate for round two. I need to watch Jim Greco's part in the Deathwish video again. I know a few other pros have been playing around with darkslides, but that trick doesn't look right unless Mullen is doing it.
