IS THIS BOB BURNQUIST'S BEST VERT RUN EVER? | World of X Games

"He's gonna do that Bob thing." -Tony Hawk

And me here in 2024 still having goosebumps watching Bob doing his "Bob things". Our Brazilian legendary guy! 🇧🇷

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING BOB?!?!" Gets me every time. Chills. History right there folks.

This was not only the best run of all-time but it happened when all these legendary skaters like Burnquist, Lasek, MacDonald were in their primes. It was the real golden era of skateboard vert.

That blunt kickflip at the end gets me every time.

List of tricks: - OMG - What is he doing here?!? - OMGaaaawww - What??? - Switch Stance - Screams - Respect this goat

Realize that this was when these tricks weren't even created. Did you not hear the commentator? "How many tricks did we just see that we haven't seen before." That's why it was a huge deal.

Two of the greatest moves that Bob pioneered: The “Oh, no, What? What? What Are You Doing, Bob?” And of course, the great “OOOOOOOIIIIIEEEAAAAAAA!”

This is extraordinary. Even Bucky Lasek's disappointment was overshadowed by his excitement of what just happened.

this is peak human performance. i got actual goosebumps watching this

Bob Burquist is my all time favorite. This is still, to this day, the greatest thing I have ever seen on a skateboard. I mean, the level of difficulty in this run is almost unfathomable. Like, unless you know skating you can't even begin to understand how hard and technical this run is. Watching Bob skate is art.

Yo...we talk about how this is one of the greatest runs ever, but this is also one of the greatest calls in live sports broadcasting history. A living legend, Tony Hawk starts it with "He's gonna do that Bob thing" and midway though someone on the broadcast screams "What are you doing Bob?!" This is up there w/ "Do you believe in miracles...Yes!" and "The band is on the field!"

I dont even know what is happening. But the reactions are enough for me to appreciate greatness

Bob has most likely watched this exact video. Seeing all these comments. Bob if you are reading. . . .I wonder if you truly realize how much of a positive impact you had on us.

just watched this 10x in a row...i laughed silly every time. ridiculous run...all hail the king

1:35 that scream when he does the switch back lip kills me everytime 😂 I would have been the same. Bob is a legend

I've been watch x games since 1998. this is truly the greatest moment in XGames history. early 2000s was the prime of skateboard vert

When I first watched this, my English wasn't good enough to understand what was being said in the broadcast, so I seriously thought this was kind of a "victory run", like, he'd won the competition already and was having the last run just as a celebration. Now that I know that all this was actually the last run of the competition and that he had to beat Lasek's excelent run, my mind is officially blown. How can you be so smooth, so perfect, having so much pressure on your shoulders? Bob, Tony and Rodney are the holy trinity. Pure legends.
