Just watched the Santa Cruz video; didn’t find the music bad per se, like I would’ve probably enjoyed the songs if they’d come on separately on 6 music on a Saturday afternoon, just a set of really odd choices for a skate video. What I took issue with was the editing. So kooky with all the graphics, extraneous cuts, weird half-replays cut in, “more is less” in action.
At least it had all their names before the sections though.
The other dude with the longish hair, usually in a knot. Did the switch backtail shuv, bs flipped the rail into the bank etc.
the music isn’t bad music, i just don’t want it in a skate video, it does nothing for the skating
man too many heads who look the same! either way, the long hair guys were good
The skatepark I grew up skating has finally been updated. Made this little piece to celebrate it, some of the footage is 15 years old, some of it is 15 days old…
Is the guy a French Berrics dude? Who does he ride for, gave up half way through to post this.
Lovely colours
Anyone post this yet?
Rad to see some of the AM / Flow guys with clips on this.
Bledsoe solid as always!
Wow, that was beautiful
Solid indeed!
Lovely.
loved it.
as usual with these things, reverse the roles and see how it flies. if a guy had a single clip of a 50-50 on a normal ledge you’d be like “wtf?” so i think your opinion is fine here
What clip was it I posted Adidas one?
I didn’t even clock.
But at the same time there was loads of sub par tricks from mates in that new 917 vid and have been in loads of videos through the years. I didn’t see it as a problem personally, the edit didn’t come across as trying to be the most cutting edge of skateboarding. Not every edit has to be the pinnacle of what people can do.
I guess the question would be, why is she getting hooked up if her level is not up there with other sponsored girls? Is that not misrepresenting the level in which girls are skating? I dunno, we all know there are unspoken tiers of sponsorship.
Thats not even a ledge where she pops on.
Because they’re not Nike.
I think it’s fine for adidas to hook that girl up and include her 50 in the video but, as Max says, more context is needed. That clip didn’t exactly do her justice. A few additional tricks would have been good to see her level and style.
I have no problem if she isn’t especially good. Enough subpar male skaters have been hooked up before.
