The Continually Updated Footage Thread

Although I have firm views on the editing and ‘vision’ of the series, I’d prefer to look at the positives of a scene video that’s just dropped.
Here are some stand out tricks if you haven’t watched but want to skim before taking the plunge into the whole thing

Lucas Healey
0:22 stand up grind over the water channel

James gazzard
4:50 half cab flip manny 180 in Rotherham
6:55 manual flip manual
8:25 noseslide nollie heel the rob Welsh thing at buszy

Dion Williams
11:19 5 oh into double bank

Ollie Lawrence
15:23 big back 5050 through kinks

Bushy - everything really but especially:
16:00 Front shove back noseblunt
21:12 fakie hardflip fakie manny
22:30 front blunt back 270 kickflip out
24:15 hard and switch hard
Frontside flip switch manny bar in MK at the end

That said, Milton Keynes T Block footage should in no way make it into a full length. It’s a skate park ledge
*can’t be toxicly posi

This needs a thread.

This is how I’ve always looked at them and it’s not changed very much, it would be nice to see them take things to another level but that’s not always possible.

For what they had at their disposal I felt like they punched massively above their weight. Nothing wrong with a bit of constructive criticism though.

One of my favourites moves from the vid. Performed perfectly at a difficult spot to skate.

Riding 40’’ boards with 215s.

Maybe it’s because I’m old (it’s definitely because I’m old) but I see it from the exact opposite perspective. The Get Lesta stuff is cemented in British skate history as the pinnacle of post 2000 scene video creation and nothing since Cover Version, other than Atlantic Drift, has stuck in my memory.*

*No doubt, as soon as I press ‘Reply’ I’ll remember 15 amazing independent British projects.

All fucking amazing but they were all pre Cover Version (2019).

Edit: Savoir Faire was 2008, Albion and Eleventh Hour 2014.

Obviously Insta/the move away from physical copies is the driving force but Haven’s point was “the explosion of UK scene videos in the past couple of years will be remembered (more) fondly,” which I don’t subscribe to.

Poor old Alf spent a bit of time testing how hard floors can be though.
