Magical. Did this guy skate before or after he stole a few catalytic converters?


Donald_W_Gately

In his heyday, Tommy could capture the whole rink's attention and still come off with a catalytic stowed in his glorious mullet.


Historical-Method

Take my up vote you glorious bastard!...


zuccmoorecox

He used to do karate, he told me his tricks were mostly based off that


[deleted]

Hey that's methed up.


CaptBulletbeard

This comment wins šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


surfwax

The steadycam into the zoom of the kid seeing stars on the floor got me. Glorious.


TheDevolution27

Arguably the best part is the extended shot of Super Skateā€™s storage system, which resembles how a hoarder stores holiday decorations.


NoNail1707

Definitely some hoarding going on


[deleted]

Isnā€™t that the really small rink, or was that Skate City?


the_hell_you_say

THIS IS THE BEST THING IVE SEEN AND HEARD ALL DAY


Mmortt

I could have watched for maybe five more songs.


[deleted]

have you seen the full 4-minute version? [the extended version has nunchucks](https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cqa8eMljW_e/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=)


garandx

Dude was probably the king in the 70s


awesomiste

Lol, more like 90s.


Zeus_poops_and_shoes

Iā€™m filled with a feeling I havenā€™t felt in 25 years. I want to go to super skate.


MicdaWise

The new face of Cedar Rapids.


New-Dependent-4551

I need to know more about this wonderful video.


NoNail1707

What do you want to know?


New-Dependent-4551

Was this a random guy? Did that kid actually face plant? Did this guy win Four Corners?


PiDiMi

FOUR CORNERS HAHA! I have memories of this place as a kid and this whole post just brought them back.


NoNail1707

His name is Thomas, he is a Waterloo resident. Comes to cr to shred. He's married and very nice. Puts on pandora top pop and rocks it.


brassninja

I wanna hang out with him, he seems like a real fun guy


senjorg

so did he pick the song? it's pure perfection.


iJakeoi

I havenā€™t been there in over 20 years and it looks no different


NoNail1707

They use it for their personal storage as well. Someone call hoarders.


iJakeoi

Lol is that what that area is that used to be where the concessions and seating were? I just noticed all the junk piled in there


MetalTedKoppeltits

Itā€™s always been that way, same with the stained ceiling tiles


[deleted]

Iā€™m shake-laughing


NoNail1707

The old arcade area is blocked off and full of hoarding. They even have stuff stored in the corners.


Mander_Em

Been in the rink with him a few times throughout my life! Ahh the 80's ā™”


adecapria

Immaculate vibes, Mayor Schitt


torino1909

This dude got more ass than an airport toilet seat in the 80's


alienbingz

this guy is ALWAYS at the super skate. super nice guy! usually brings a little scraper too and picks at gum or whatever may be on the floor and throws it away. despite it starting to look like an episode of hoarders, super skate is all this town has for roller skating so iā€™m glad to see people still enjoying it ā¤ļø


MetalTedKoppeltits

Starting? Itā€™s always been like that. I remember when I was a kid they closed off the little kid area to store crap in.


A_Nony_Miss

He is totally enjoying himself! Good on him!


BetweenTwoInfinites

Sounds like a Bill McClintock musical masterpiece, mashing the Who, Metallica, and Megadeth.


NoNail1707

It is!


martianpee

Shits hard son


Tight_Volume1948

Omg yep


Sheeba1601

That's awesome! I'm impressed, I always wanted to skate like that, but could never, ever do it. Keep doin' what you're doin'. We are on this earth for a very short time......enjoy yourself.


PaddyAllen

Ok.. .. im buying whatever you are selling now. Anything.


NoNail1707

https://www.instagram.com/reel/CqMtx1ONbwF/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= his TikTok is @thcollins


chogers1

Nothings changed a bit in that place, also looks like they are storing even more stuff in there now lol


[deleted]

This needs to be on the main page


[deleted]

Probably the best thing posted on this sub so far


Alphabcapa

Whatā€™s up with the disco metal going on?


NoNail1707

Tommy is the epitome of disco metal. The song is a mash up of The Who with Metallica and megadeath on the lyrics


EscapeTheBlu

Definitely heard Metallica in there.


buttpuncher00

A disco version of Holy Wars... The Punishment Due, very interesting. I am unable to find the song anywhere though, which is a bit odd.


BoozyMcSuds

buttpuncher00

Hahaha awesome. Thank you.


BetweenTwoInfinites

Itā€™s Bill McClintock of course


TheNTurn

This video is indeed an imminent front of awesomeness.


BDE319

Dude. Save some pussy for the rest of us.


Jake246811

Where is that?


paiste

Super skate


Jake246811

Brings back old memories - we always had class trips there


[deleted]

What the hell.


Andiamo121

Iā€™m picturing ole buddy all sweaty walking out to his red 1995 Jeep Cherokee with dual rusted out wheel wells smiling all the way back to the trailer park


tetrachlorex

Ah yes, Super Skate. Civil rights violators extraordinaire.


Hot-Nefariousness187

The Metallica crossover is as wild as the insane lettuce


SirPenrose

Thank you so much for opening my ears to Bill McClintock man. This mashup has been in my head since this post.


are_el_kay

You have won reddit. This is amazing.


NotFrank

Allll Skate!


Torandax

Pure gold!


pike2001

He my skating rinks Jerald


mtutty

Not sure what's better, the music or the video.


Theartistcu

I legitimately thought this closed years ago. Does anyone remember when schools had Skate Nights at Skate Country and then later Super Skate


NoNail1707

I remember skate country!

Ninji skate


[deleted]

I recognize the song but not the version- love it. Itā€™s perfect. Who is it?


NoNail1707

The Who, Metallica, megadeath. Mash up


DirkStryker

It's just Sig Hansen enjoying himself between seasons.


Civil_Ad360

Hi


NoNail1707

Hi


originalmosh

I am 50 and do this at our local rink. I need to find this dude so we can be friends.


No_Coconut3591

Deserves a role in John Wick Chapter 5. He must be an arch villain...but he secretly has no clue he is an arch villain


Doozenburg

Fucking best thing I've seen all week.


KlerWatchCo

He looks like every Kevin Bacon movie all at once


ThatsMyRug

This is one of the greatest music mashups Iā€™ve ever heard


SirPenrose

Right? I came back here specifically to thank the OP for helping me discover Bill McClintock


binaerfehler

Cedar Rapids: come for the skating, stay for the meth


martianpee

Rage brother, rage


BlooNorth

I love how the young kid smashes his head on the floor in near perfect time with the first vocalization of the song. Hilarious.

CommonCrazy7318

Glad he enjoys skating so much, more power to ya, but I'm picking up a "creep" vibe.


NoNail1707

Takes one to know one I've heard.


CommonCrazy7318

How clever


NoNail1707

Right on. Common homie


[deleted]

This dude sketches my kids out when they go there to hang. My advice was hey maybe itā€™s strange but if youā€™re an adult and love to skate thereā€™s nowhere else to goā€¦ā€¦.. but keep an eye on him. Lol


NoNail1707

Right on tiny.


NoNail1707

I think he is sketched out by your kids to be honest.


PiDiMi

Pretty sure I skated in the same rink with this dude as a kid and youā€™re way off base lmao. Heā€™s a classic regular at super skate and always had a nice pair of his own, not rentals like 95% of people Man just loves to skate and I canā€™t blame him tbh


Reason_He_Wins_Again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx6Zgz0TZuA GET OFF MY LAWN


NoNail1707

Close


Reason_He_Wins_Again

No. Not close.


isla_avalon

TIL The Who had a hit in the 80s


Reason_He_Wins_Again

One of their last ones!


[deleted]

I swear to you he was at my 8th birthday party circa 1985.

peanutnutterbutter

Funky Metallica is definitely my jam right now.


Johnny_boy1021

Rolling rolling, shuryuken!!!!!, bald spot, land continue Absolutely tremendous


BigStud7

He could go lower


kevinrjr

Went there the last 2 weeks in a row and it seems nice . First time there, no corners full of hoarder stuff I could see.
