can safely say i’ve never heard of him before but that was crazy. i think Nyjah was talking about that rail in a video sometime where he said it was aluminium and doesn’t slide at all
Whole thing was great to be honest, you should watch it all. Minimal meh. Not a fan of Spears either but you can see the influence of Suciu on a few skaters. Niels Bennet is very Suciu in style even if he is not an influence, he’s going to be unreal in a couple of years I reckon.
I have said it before and it’s very controversial but I am a fan of Felipe Gustavo. He was the worst for ages but he’s ripened into a real stylish dude. I know, so weird. Gustav T, my god, that dude is beautiful.
i quite like Felipe. he’s got that very clean SLS thing. you know what you’re going to get
You can’t front on a tre back nosegrind reves
Yet another Adidas video and still no MJ footage
He had three clips?
at least 3. they were alright as well. Daewon had at least one clip in there as well
To be fair, I haven’t watched it, I was just presuming
That was sick. Nice style as well.
Really liked that.
Haha. Fuck’s sake. Just watch the video everyone who hasn’t bothered. It’s good.
I do miss when adidas has a more coherent team though, when it was led by the likes of
Busenitz and Silas and they were doing those city-based edits. Now the team’s massive and you have Donta Hill, lil Dre, Jenn Soto, even MJ who are all a bit whatever. A bigger team make the edits a bit bewildering.
And I know that I want to watch a Gustav part over any of the others.
All that said, this was way better than Away Days. That video sunk so fast…
Here’s a video I made a couple of years back… Trowbridge Scene Video!!!
What isn’t? That thing was such a let down.
RVCA vid. The thing is bizarre. Rubbish music, and the thing as a whole has no soul. Zach Allen, Julian Davidson and those guys are uninteresting as usual but I was stoked on the footage of Suciu and Reynolds in Morocco, that was pretty rad. Curren Caples had good shit too.
I think Reynolds’ bit starts at 6.30 or 7.00ish and Suciu’s at 20.00ish. Maybe.
Still don’t understand that Switch Flip… his wheels hit the mud, it’s out of an 10 inch bank, I don’t think anyone else could do it. I was impressed with the Ollie/Wallie up it!
I think I’m going to do something I’ve not done in a while and specifically buy a skateboard because it has his name on it… hope adidas are paying him well!
Hoping this ends up on YouTube at some point. The Thrasher webplayer is kinda annoying, but it’s because I’ve got adblocker running at home.
Seems like there’s been a few company videos that are a bit bland recently. Like they’re just there to collect together the footage and have it run on a silent loop on the wall of some Active mall shop.
I watched the whole thing. Totally with you. It was just soulless.
The only thing it really made me do was check out who made it, just to know to avoid his stuff in future.
