unique
March 16th, 2009 at 12:22 pm
he’s pretty much the equivalent to the harlem globe trotters, but for skateboarding.
March 16th, 2009 at 12:48 pm
he is freaking crazy i dont see how he does it
March 16th, 2009 at 12:52 pm
dude looks like an extra from dazed and confused
March 16th, 2009 at 1:11 pm
what the hell is that last trick?
March 16th, 2009 at 1:15 pm
its like a hippie jump no comply/boneless thing forward flip? i dont know how you roll a freakin forward flip on the ground…
March 16th, 2009 at 1:18 pm
toooo original. but in a bad way
March 16th, 2009 at 1:34 pm
richie jackson is sick but these hippie jumps get old pretty fast the more and more you watch him.
March 16th, 2009 at 1:53 pm
but the last trick sucks
March 16th, 2009 at 1:59 pm
originality is never bad
March 16th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
the gayest thing i have ever seen!
March 16th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
i wish the comment boards for twsnow had no hate like these ones, skateboarders are just better people it seems
March 16th, 2009 at 3:42 pm

March 16th, 2009 at 4:45 pm
niceeeeeeeeeeee
March 16th, 2009 at 5:44 pm

March 16th, 2009 at 5:52 pm
Richie Jackson is a magician who also skateboards. He is too crazy…
March 16th, 2009 at 6:32 pm

Unique New York
March 16th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
that was wtf awesome
March 16th, 2009 at 6:48 pm
fits right in with ipath cause their both _____.
March 16th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
That is the kind of person that looks like they did acid back in the day
March 16th, 2009 at 6:58 pm
i wonder if he decided to dress like a hippie or do hella hippie jumps first. the chicken and the egg
March 16th, 2009 at 7:03 pm
its sorta like when rodney mullen invented primo
March 16th, 2009 at 7:09 pm
hes complete joke and stuff like this makes me wanna stop skating him and that micah hollinger kid need to to hippie jump off a building thier taking this skateboard freedom thing way to far
March 16th, 2009 at 8:13 pm
everything in me says to not like him. but really, i cant help it, i’m waiting for some of the younger kids to be riding around dressed like him, i mean, they’ll go corey duffel style, and like biebel, why not Featch?
March 16th, 2009 at 8:31 pm
this guy needs to learn some real tricks…
March 16th, 2009 at 8:50 pm
snowboarding is largely just a fashion show for rich youth, at least at my local mountain. so many clicks, and kids who pretend they ride with multi thousand dollar set ups.
shakabra bro bro lol. (lame)
March 16th, 2009 at 9:14 pm
lol, define a “real trick” please
March 16th, 2009 at 10:43 pm
ahahaha great comment
March 16th, 2009 at 10:45 pm
more like that is the kind of person that looks like they do acid every day
March 16th, 2009 at 10:55 pm
no comply hippy hop slappy forward flip??
honestly i think he did that one on accident cuz he had a kickflip one at that spot in that same part… footage was already used.
March 16th, 2009 at 11:36 pm
It’s nice to see something original, although he’s done this rail stuff so much now that he’s almost over-doing it. The first trick was incredible - over to 5-0, however, to me, the ender appeared to be far too random. I can imagine them filming it like 50 times before he managed to get on.
I’m not a massive fan of Richie, but he always impresses me in his own way. Like him or not skateboarding needs people like him to push the bounds forward.
March 16th, 2009 at 11:47 pm
this guy is trippy!
super good
March 17th, 2009 at 4:48 am
keep on keepin on Richie You does what you doos… lol
March 17th, 2009 at 5:31 am
no comply hippie hop dolphin flip sounds right lol.
March 17th, 2009 at 5:36 am
Like someone else said above, everything in me thinks this guy is just a poor-man’s Chris Haslam . . .with numerous, repeated wardrobe malfunctions. And yet, somehow I still can’t HATE the guy. I suppose even a poor-man’s Chris Haslam is still pretty awesome.
March 17th, 2009 at 5:56 am
there needs to be a full length Ipath video. yah.
March 17th, 2009 at 6:21 am
Either way you look at it the guy still has some skill when it comes to regular tricks. Yeah it takes a different set of skills to hippie jump through a lipslide but he does pop out like a champ and apparently he does kicflip nose manny nollie flip out so i guess he could do normal tricks if he wanted but he chooses to do the different stuff.
March 17th, 2009 at 7:07 am
this isnt the 70s
March 17th, 2009 at 8:13 am
this guy sucks.
go ryan shecklar!
March 17th, 2009 at 8:59 am
Man! This dude is just wrong. I have no idea how he ends up back on his board again after some of this stuff. What creativity. Keep it up man!
Just to speak for one second to all the haters… what gives? I don’t understand all of your stupid little spoiled kid attitudes. It’d be one thing if you were also having videos sent out by TWS, but you’re not! You never will. And… that’s okay. Skateboarding has not been about who can do the exact same thing as the next guy since the ’70s, man. That’s a long time ago. Get with the attitude of skateboarding - Go Skateboarding… stop slammin’ on other skaters that would clearly destroy you if it came down to it. For real!
March 17th, 2009 at 10:23 am
you’s a bitch for sayin the gayest thing i’ve ever heard
March 17th, 2009 at 10:27 am
Damn you Justin. You are 100% correct. Stole my comment from me, heh..
letsgoskate
March 17th, 2009 at 11:30 am
Him and LNP share a closet..
March 17th, 2009 at 11:38 am
yeah what the hek is a real trick
March 17th, 2009 at 1:08 pm
wow show some respect. richie jackson rips. i guarantee he’s better than you and yeah as the previous have added, define “real trick” or even “trick.” how about you get out there and try some of the stuff he threw down in this vid and come back and tell us how easy it was. the thru-rail tricks are scary, even a simple k-flip under a rail is sketchy. so once again, show respect for everyone in the skateboarding community and richie jackson rips
March 17th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
crazy good skater. but whats with the clothing. like what is he a freakin hippie
March 17th, 2009 at 1:28 pm
maybe u made a little too big of a deal about that. its just an opnion……..
March 17th, 2009 at 2:15 pm
that trick was not an accident
March 17th, 2009 at 3:31 pm
do something besides a hippie jump. there is no variety
March 17th, 2009 at 4:42 pm
um that would obviously be a hippie jump dolphin flip
March 17th, 2009 at 5:58 pm
to the person who said snowboarding is for the the rich youth…kiss my ass…i skate and i shred and by no means am i rich or wealthy…i’m just out there trying to have a good time and do what i can to have some fun…so quit hating
March 17th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
one of the best skaters out there right now with a great style
March 17th, 2009 at 7:14 pm
Nice….
March 17th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
They are both great skaters buddy. I’ve seen Micah do alot of stuff from all facets of skateboarding.
March 18th, 2009 at 12:38 am
this guy was creative before chris haslam could even kickflip
March 18th, 2009 at 1:17 am
…except that those tricks take a lot of f**king skill to pull off and isn’t staged…
March 18th, 2009 at 4:35 am
the globe trotters need a lot of skill to do what they do.. not just anyone can join them.
March 18th, 2009 at 7:27 am
By real tricks he means where you don’t look like your floating around like a fairy.
March 18th, 2009 at 7:52 am
last trick is a downward hippe hardflip footplant
March 18th, 2009 at 9:37 am
hippie!!!
March 18th, 2009 at 10:06 am
LNP
March 18th, 2009 at 7:46 pm

March 20th, 2009 at 10:50 am

March 20th, 2009 at 10:52 am

March 20th, 2009 at 11:27 am

March 20th, 2009 at 3:29 pm
look at the tail of his deck for sure looks like he had been tring it? idk
March 21st, 2009 at 8:02 am
i know i said that twice, but the gayness just motivated me
March 21st, 2009 at 8:06 am
wait i said his tricks are difficult, but its also difficult to lick your own butthole. would you do it just cause u could? no, unless youre gay and lonely
March 21st, 2009 at 8:56 am
this isnt original its weak
March 21st, 2009 at 4:23 pm
shut it collin all the haters out there are retarted they arnt pro so why tey hatin
March 21st, 2009 at 8:18 pm
richie jackson is a beast…sick part
stop hatin skateboarding is about being an individual and clearly he is…
March 22nd, 2009 at 1:40 pm
tootally original im so fat i could never do anything like that…my ass would get in the way too much
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:53 pm
thats the worst thing a skateboarder could say about another skateboarder
you cant take skateboarding TOO FAR
when the skateboard was invented it didnt come with a set of rules
just opportunities
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:59 pm
since when is there a required wardrobe for the years we are in?
let’s not look like androids all dressing according to whats hip
live and destroy
March 24th, 2009 at 12:05 am
whats up with all the “real tricks” comments?
just cause he doesnt do a 360 flip in every line he does and switchflip the next big set?
stop watching the life of ryan and start skateboarding
March 24th, 2009 at 12:10 am
lets see footage of you throwing a nollie tre under a rail
or even a 3 set at that
March 26th, 2009 at 11:07 am
I think his skating is innovative
March 26th, 2009 at 12:20 pm
WTF CRAZY!!
March 26th, 2009 at 10:55 pm
Life Eternal
March 29th, 2009 at 7:53 am
dude is so creative.
April 2nd, 2009 at 9:56 am
are you kidding me, snowbaording is so dope!
and a fashion show for rich youth? really, i highly doubt that.
and we pretend that we ride multi thousand dollar setups, it’s a couple hundred at best.
snowbaorders go way bigger than skaters will ever be able to. what would you choose? kickflip a 20 stair set, or a switch 1260 over a 66ft booter?
if you ask me your the one thats “lame”
April 17th, 2009 at 9:47 am
i will get baked with him any time
April 19th, 2009 at 9:46 pm
He is definitely the Hippy version of Haslam.
April 27th, 2009 at 8:01 am
he isn’t a good skater. give him a 20 stairs, can he ollie them ?
June 2nd, 2009 at 4:22 pm
exactly. that's what progress looks like, robotniks.
September 24th, 2009 at 6:19 am
I keep listening to the news speak about getting free online grant applications so I have been looking around for the best site to get one.
September 26th, 2009 at 8:21 am
Hey very nice blog!! Man .. Beautiful .. Amazing .. I will bookmark your blog and take the feeds also…
September 26th, 2009 at 11:41 pm
As a Newbie, I am always searching online for articles that can help me. Thank you
November 5th, 2009 at 3:36 am
shut the fuck up, ur just jelous cause u cant do it
November 22nd, 2009 at 6:20 am
Wow. Yeah, I'd rather see him jumping down the same sets that everyone else does for a minute instead of doing things no one else does.
November 22nd, 2009 at 6:21 am
Cause that's the mark of a good skater. Are you, by chance, retarded?
November 22nd, 2009 at 9:07 am
he can cannon ball it
November 30th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
he pole jam-tweeked muted one
December 2nd, 2009 at 3:48 am
can u
December 5th, 2009 at 12:44 am
It's Funny… Richie Jackson Is making a difference in skateboarding and you're sitting on your rear insulting him. There's no such thing as taking "freedom of skateboarding" too far. Like Squid Said, there's no rule book for skateboarding. And Normal Stuff is boring. Thank You Richie for something that I haven't seen 2453 times in the last ten minutes.
December 6th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
are u kidding me!? So what is a good skater to you? Someone who just does what every other skater does, someone who is afraid that if there style isn't like everyone elses, they wont go anywhere in skating. Don't get me wrong, there is alot of good skaters out there, but to say that Richie Jackson isn't good because he skates a style that he likes, and is independent and creative with his skating, maybe you should reconsider what u said bro, cuz if u skate just to have the same style as everyone else, and not have fun with it and be creative with it, then your skating for the wrong reason man.
December 7th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
20 stairs are for chumps everyone knows its about 4 staris trick.
December 7th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
FREE LOVE. skateboarding is about friends, and goodtimes. this guy prob rollerblades alone jamin to some emo music. such a markassnigga
December 8th, 2009 at 8:35 pm
fuck you nobody cares about 20 stairs these days
February 23rd, 2010 at 5:28 pm
hell yeah sickest skater ive seen good job bro you pump me up to skate like that. to all thoses haters you can suck it and to that one kid saying to jump a 20 stair shut your mouth kid let him skate what he wants to skate skateboarding isn't about stairs or rails or vert ramps its about having fun and doing what you wanna do. richie jackson keep skating gnar brother
