They were using footage from multiple filmers so maybe had to knacker the footage for consistency. Feel like people only do this sort of effect if they want to mask something - maybe some of the AVE footage was old?

Vague posted a list of filmers on their Insta, and those people know what they’re doing behind a camera.
AVE saying his was all filmed in the last year too on insta.

AVE’s section was by far the best in that. No surprises in terms of trick selection or spots but fuck me he skates fast.

Seems like popping an impossible or a 360 flip and seeing where you land and what happens is the new thing. Kids are gonna destroy their pyjamas of the week trying to emulate that.
AVE’s half cab crooks to Suski 180 out was pretty damn good.

Yeah turned that off after a minute.
People complain VX is outdated and too low quality and then come out with something that looks like it was recorded directly off a CRT monitor…
Isn’t that how all tricks work?

Misery Kev’s backside nollie fakie 5050 over the road gap is the most exciting trick I’ve seen in years.

I suppose.
I think he means the difference between being precise and looking like you’re just hucking a trick and vaguely landing on it
I thought that was sick.
Don’t mind the fake filter at all.
Sick spots, interesting skating and good music.

Exactly. I’m sure @wayout knew what I meant.
Remember Gonz talking to his board, saying I do the trick, not you?

Seeing Krod doing more than early grab wallride is such a fucking treat. AVE smashed it. Aidan Mackey I can take or leave.
Kids should have their own thing. Especially if it’s original and confuses middle-aged people.
My 15 year-old self would be pretty annoyed if I thought a bunch of dudes in their 40s were into the same stuff as me.

You know in SkyPager when Julien Stranger does that gap to tail slide?
I feel like when I’m watching the FA dudes they capture the same type of flavour as that tailslide when they skate.
It’s very raw and so fresh.
Fuck being able to do the same trick the same way every time.

Really enjoyed that. Bit tough for KRod and Aidan being the bread to an AVE sandwich as he is just in his own league. So aggressive it’s sick as fuck. Not slowing down either.
Nice to see KRod popping his board a bit, and Aidans stuff was really fun. Awkward tricks done well. High speed downhill dirt manual was exciting to watch!
I really like KR. The Gallic Shrug personified.

it’s a shame they stuck that filter over the whole thing as that could’ve been something truly great

Didn’t mind the filter. Better than modern skating filmed with VX.

Was it young kids who filmed and edited it? It’s a company run by this famous youngster called Dill right? I’m sure some kids are into it but I’m not sure I’d brand the whole thing ‘what kids like nowadays’.
I liked the AVE stuff very much.
