Rodney Mullen
John Rodney Mullen nació el 17 de agosto de 1966 en Gainesville,
Florida. Para los skaters, es considerado como uno de los más
influyentes de la historia y padre del street skate. Inventó un gran
número de trucos en los años 80 y principios de los 90, entre ellos el
Kickflip, el Heelflip, el 360 Flip. En la actualidad Mullen se encuentra
alejado del deporte pero aún sigue inventando variaciones de trucos
como los Underflips y las variaciones en Darkslide.
