    Aaron was the shit. I remember the beginning of his decline when he lost the ASA street comp in Ft Myers Florida in 1998 or 1999. He ripped off an advertisement from one of the ramps. He certainly introduced hammers to rollerblading. A legend.

    best skater ever

    LEGEND!!!

    Aaron is one of my 3 favourite skaters, cause i like his Fuck-you-attitude!
    Not always the best style, but since a while i like this ugly style more than all those wannabe-style skaters

    legend!

    One of my favorite skaters of all time, it would be so cool if he would be skating more like in old days (videos, pictures, interviews etc).

    Respect A. Feinberg!

    ———–
    there was no clip, aaron just got up and said ‘I’m going to rough fish it’ and nobody had a video camera ready,..,. and on that note – how the fuck to you rough fish, seriously it is mental, esp on a rail like eltoro I mean its totally death for forward tricks… DEATH!!!

    Aaron is just bascially the man and always will be… ALWAYS!

    I had never seen this ad until now. Kind of a trip that he was at la all day last month. I didn’t get a chance to see him but my friends told me he was sporting facial hair. Friend went up to him and I guess asked him if he still skated. He apparently doesn’t rollerblade these days, he skateboards. Kind of weird, but hey I guess as much of a legend as he is, he probably did as much as he thought he was going to do. Hell that or all the injuries were starting to get to him. Just my guess though.

  18. roller Says:

    best style,best talent ,biggest balls,absolute legend,peope can try but there will never be another feinberg!!!!!chap gave so much inspiration to so many ppl,feinbergs the man!

  19. Tony M Says:

    That trick truly means Brain Fear Gone too
    ;-)

  20. obabas Says:

    The best LEGEND !!!

  21. DarthRoller Says:

    Pity Feinberg and Latimer have been unable to stay around and get a company going the way Shima and Elliott did.

    Aaron and Dustin’s rolling complimented each other so well. Hammers and creativity.

    Would love the guy to make a big ass comeback but it’s his life and rolling (even a lot of rollers) hasn’t always been good to the guy.

    It sucks.

    C’est pas un trick pour les beaufs d’aujourd’hui ça

  24. portas Says:

    The word legend is thrown around all to easily in the rollerblading world. In this case it is 100 % true.

  25. MB Says:

    Skateboarding? Man, I sure hope he is reading this. Aaron, come back! Anyone ever hear anything about his brother Ruben? Remember him in the Battle My Crew videos? Maybe it was Hoax 5…it was one of those. At any rate…someone needs to get through to aaron…it is horrible that he does not have anything to do with the rollerblading industry. No offense on this because Brandon Smith is a cool cat and all, but he wasn’t ever Aaron Feinberg. If he can make it as a skater/owner, then it seems that Aaron should be able to make it. I am guessing now that Coburn is in with Xjsado and the conference, that pretty much kept Aaron away from doing anything with Coburn because he probably doesn’t want anything to do with the conference after getting dropped by USD. That’s another thing….thing about the fact that USD has dropped Rachard and Aaron within the last 4 years. There are some good skaters on USD right now, but there sure as hell aren’t any the league of those two. I guess the shit at Salomon, Senate, USD, and Mindgame, must have just been enough for him to say “fuck it”.

  26. thatwasfire... Says:

    that’s the difference between skateboarding and rollerblading…

    rollerblading companies like RB and USD don’t seem to understand the ‘star power’ that Aaron and Rachard had/have. skateboard companies sponsor guys that haven’t been able to impress for 20 years just for image.

    skateboarding though? I mean whatever, he can do what he likes, but that means that I can do what I like, and what I like to do is rag on Feinburg for moving to skateboarding and then telling kids at a comp as much. lame.

  27. thatwasfire... Says:

    also I wanted to point out that this old ad from 2005 and the next post below have the exact same skate. new pro model haha…

  28. ya boyyy Says:

    Legend!
    but… on the one hand, he`s definitely one of the best skaters out there, was, and always will be… on the other hand… as a pro blader, its your job to skate, so if you don`t do anything for almost 2 years, i can see powerslides point in not wanting to pay him anymore. you just can`t lay back on being a legend… you have to prove that from time to time… just like haffey does

  29. Fray Says:

    aaron was skating at that event recently (could of months ago) – dam I cant remember what it was called… check the rockillers worldpress there is a pic of him ao fish a play rail…

    and he has always skateboarded since back in teh day – and bascailly amazing on it… he has a trick on a skateboard back in his standfast section… remember?

  30. brain fear gone Says:

    I was at a USD tour back in 2005 and he was in the skate factory in essen and did a rough fishbrain on that handrail.
    could not believe that he really did that!no doubts, he is the best ever!!!!!!!!

  31. collin Says:

    i felt cheated in the newest mindgame video

  32. portas Says:

    He was at the LA all day comp.

  33. bill Says:

    many hammers on that rail yes for those of u who dont know its el toro and the middle rail / the rail he is doing has been taken out dude to skate boarders getting hurt on it

  34. millet Says:

    I want to see an AF skateboard edit.

  35. Lurk Says:

    him, latimer and franco cammayo are the only 3 skaters I’ve seen land that trick proper….

    shits ROUGH!!like how do you do that???

    amaziiing

  36. Geoff from SLC Says:

    Feinberg was soooooooooooooo ahead of this time I would like to see ANYONE dare to rough fish any rail let alone El Toro R.E.S.P.E.C.T. one of the elite few who truly put this sport on the map… I don’t give a shit what Aaron does with his life, but he will always have my respect.

  37. forwardfreestyle Says:
