The first clip comes via Michael Lee at Addison Road. It's of Rodney Mullen from 1984. Rodney pretty much invented much of modern skating and he can do tricks that no one else can come close to pulling off. In fact half of the stuff in the second clip below can barely be pulled of in Tony Hawk Pro Skater let alone in real life.
The second clip comes via Jeremy in a comment in Michael Lee's post.

Demo footage of Rodney Mullen from 1984.


Rodney Mullen more recently.
**warning. The music that accompanies this video is what some would call “Gangsta” and contains all of the street cred that goes with it. ie a ton of F bombs*** Turn down your sound and watch the moves.



If you go here there are more Mullen clips.
