Don’t watch many dad board videos but he just linked to this lady’s account and this video is pretty wholesome. All about that last trick.

I’ve subbed to Oria’s YT after watching this - all her videos are great.

There’s a static smith small on a barrier / block in this that I thought was ace.

Stoked on being inspired by the young 'uns!

I really liked Oria’s latest video.

Having spent some formative skate years in la location with no ā€œlegitā€ spots, I get the short run ups, pivots as the world drives by and making the most out of a spot with no landing.

Pedro re-upped his 5am hill bomb in seoul s. Korea

Bit late to this thread but obviously I’m all for self filming. I’ve posted these before on here but I self filmed a couple of video parts (CMOAC etc.)

The main reason being I had just moved to the US and didn’t know anybody but had all these amazing new spots to skate and wanted to document. But what started out as a necessity became quite freeing.

I’m the filmer of our crew, so whenever it came to me trying to get a trick filmed, I’d do something easy so I wasn’t wasting someone else’s time. I started trying harder tricks and things I’d never done before. Some of the manny tricks in these parts took 4 hours to film. I’d never have landed them if I wasn’t self filming.

It also made me get more creative with camera angles as I was aware a full part of tripod shots could look quite boring. I’m really happy with how these parts turned out- it’s the peak of what I can do on a skateboard. I actually quite miss having a part on the go. Maybe I’ve got one more in me- ā€˜Biggest Portion’?

This one is relatable.

This one is really good. The little flat bar sesh is sick and the 5-0 on the angle iron is gnarlier than it looks. Wild hares on the sesh too!
