Carroll, Howard, the Royal Family, Lucas, Olson, and Pappalardo all had amazing parts.

When I first heard that the video was $8, I wasn't expecting much but the video weighs in at a healthy 45 minutes, and I have no problem saying it's the best video to come out all year, after Mind Field and Bonus Round. With stock footage sewn into the skate footage throughout the video, it has a distinct feel; think a little bit of AWS mixed with Zero circa Thrill Of It All. Everyone has a good part. My personal favorites were Pat Burke (who looks like he can barely stay on the board but in a good way), Jon Allie (one of my favorite guys to watch skate handrails), and Jon Goemann (who would have thought that the kid on Birdhouse would kill it so hard?). There's great music all the way through (lots of metal with some classic rock and rap thrown in). Only real problem I had was the lack of a Conhuir Lynn part, but otherwise this is one of the best videos I've seen in a while, and I definitely plan on buying this very soon.<br /><br />*I'm looking at you, Flip.ATMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17129393912802802468noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-782749821307540728.post-79448888266341514692009-10-18T11:39:00.007-04:002009-10-18T12:10:48.307-04:00Dinosaur Jr at the Variety Playhouse<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK4PK9-dpUK6eAQp5dLiHCx_jZHfk6ir8MqYiymu21p2XhoEcOuephhk2c3xDQH4JZ0CPZxS1cX8qPTsDIFn6ufAN5A0eRAlK8RY1Skc2BugfKYbBAhqmHJM2TytwQWQgRsuhNXQOgQCiQ/s1600-h/DSCN1708.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiK4PK9-dpUK6eAQp5dLiHCx_jZHfk6ir8MqYiymu21p2XhoEcOuephhk2c3xDQH4JZ0CPZxS1cX8qPTsDIFn6ufAN5A0eRAlK8RY1Skc2BugfKYbBAhqmHJM2TytwQWQgRsuhNXQOgQCiQ/s400/DSCN1708.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393965726664117234" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMgF0UEmGyoPep40VyELQbCMWyeWmQfravN4EWhsH5gs-kn_MFGGJy7UFWt8XmxKPjhmwN9PR-ia_ovjhwQ_Io6zbAku69qyzxGh5xoKABGw_mUVxgAcHKsp92A10DbMXCJ58EboangJfN/s1600-h/DSCN1728.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMgF0UEmGyoPep40VyELQbCMWyeWmQfravN4EWhsH5gs-kn_MFGGJy7UFWt8XmxKPjhmwN9PR-ia_ovjhwQ_Io6zbAku69qyzxGh5xoKABGw_mUVxgAcHKsp92A10DbMXCJ58EboangJfN/s400/DSCN1728.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5393972789692246802" /></a><br />Loudest show ever.<br /><br />Set List:<br />Thumb<br />The Lung<br />Imagination Blind<br />Pieces<br />Feel The Pain<br />Get Me<br />Raisans<br />Over It<br />Plans<br />Crumble<br />Freak Scene<br />I Don't Wanna Go There<br /><br />Encore:<br />In A Jar<br />The WagonATMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17129393912802802468noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-782749821307540728.post-34043109843310220752009-10-14T13:48:00.005-04:002009-10-14T13:59:28.010-04:00Extremely Sorry?

While this year's race isn't as promising or obvious as the races in years past, there are still a few candidates that deserve your vote.<br />-Silas Baxter Neal, for having anywhere from one to three ads in every single magazine printed in the last year, as well as some <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6RQj7mXUfA">quality footage</a>. Calm down, Silas.<br />-Torey Pudwill, for his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSrp3K0Amhc">Dudes Dudes Dudes part</a>(which was pretty much on the same level as some of the guys in the Lakai video), and all of the ads he's put out during the year.<br />-Guy Mariano, for continuing to push himself to another level with all the ads he's put out, although he hasn't put out a video part in 2008.<br />-Jake Duncombe, for skating to a damn good Brian Jonestown Massacre song in his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iZmCtg5ZNs">UBF 3 part</a>, and for a continued drive after the death of his best friend. RIP Shane.<br />-Danny Brady, for getting a fair bit of coverage in 2008, despite living across the Atlantic ocean. Have you seen his <a href="http://kingpinskateboarding.com/interviews/danny-brady-rolling-with-the-dinner-ladies.html">Kingpin inteview</a> yet? Insane!<br />-Dennis Busenitz or Bobby Worrest, for both putting out some great <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRZU4bLlBW4">web clips</a> and <a href="http://shop.slapmagazine.com/images/products/product_medium_244125.jpg">coverage in magazines</a>. However, no full parts again.<br />-John Cardiel, for his great <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bb7taeZMowI">Epicly Later'd episodes</a>, and for being one of the raddest human beings to ever walk this earth.<br />-Chris Cole, for putting out 6 minutes of enders in the new Fallen video.<br />Etc, etc.... just think about the past year and who got you stoked, and send an email to soty@thrashermagazine.com for your vote. It's all good, just as long as it's not one of <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbjMpbJSi38">these</a> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FefkhlNIuQ">fucks</a>.

No pictures (I think this is the first one that I went to without my camera), but if you missed it, you blew it. Some highlights (for me at least) were free shit, Jeff's dog, seeing friends that I hadn't seen for a while, judging, not getting out first in my round, some damn good skating, and just the entire day in general. Nick Paolucci won first in advance.

I got about 4 of these pictures.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9nR03Ria-PAsS4nMKugaGpr_AVlXfTarosq6R1JNFjRXTNjuY8l74kl_XuNIMFPmG8jji34DsjYaatOsi7eFysnGqRTftaEl9EQr1CcZJycHN3-aZjBhVPvnPd2ihKXEwKCiSg25P_8vJ/s1600-h/FSCN1210.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9nR03Ria-PAsS4nMKugaGpr_AVlXfTarosq6R1JNFjRXTNjuY8l74kl_XuNIMFPmG8jji34DsjYaatOsi7eFysnGqRTftaEl9EQr1CcZJycHN3-aZjBhVPvnPd2ihKXEwKCiSg25P_8vJ/s320/FSCN1210.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5260170275557850994" /></a>Ellington kept trying this backside flip after the crowds were gone.

Video premieres are always a good time, and I've been looking forward to this video for a while, so I went. I wasn't dissapointed. Good skating, good editing, good music, good , and I think I even recall a few hi-def shots that weren't slowed down to a quarter of their speed, which was a nice surprise. WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD! Tommy Sandoval opened the video. I don't remember too many specifics, but he's progressed a bit since his Zero parts. He does a good job mixing tech and gnar, for lack of a better term. His ender is fucked, bs feeble to bs smith on a legit rail. Gilbert Crockett's part was my personal favorite. He's got a good style - excellent pop, flick, catch, all that stuff. Good use of a Brian Jonestown Massacre song, too. Apparently Brian Hansen doesn't want to go by 'Slash' anymore. He took some heavy slams in the beginning of his part, but he still came through with one of the better ones; one of my favorites, in fact. The way he skates just gets me hyped. I don't remember too many specifics, but I do know he did a kickflip front board down the oceanside hubba. Josh Harmony's part was next, he progressed a little bit but his part seems like a rehash of his parts in the Toy Machine videos. Matt Bennett has 10 tricks in Josh's part as well, and that's his only footage in the video. Not too stoked on that. Tony Cervantes' part is probably the most slept on in the video. He still does the weird/original stuff that he had in that Zero video, like an airwalk to front board on a rail and bs wallride grabs down double sets? Sick. The Hendrix song fit nicely, too. Jamie Thomas's part is a lot more like his part in that recent skateshop video, and a lot less like his parts in the old Zero videos. Very enjoyable, it seems that he's been skating stuff that's more out of the normal for him - frontside feeble to fakie over the loveseat at Washington Street for example. I heard rumors that this is his retirement part, which I hope isn't true. James Hardy came through with one of the best parts in the video. He has the ability to make big rails look good, and can still get pretty tech (fakie ollie hurricane on a pretty big rail). I wasn't really too stoked on Billy Marks's part; I'm not feeling his style. His part seems like it's the same as his part in the Toy Machine videos. He ended his part with a switch bigspin heel down Carlsbad. Chris Cole's part is completely crazy! His first trick (before his name even came up on screen) is a bs 180 nosegrind to switch bigspin heel out. From there, it only gets better. I don't even remember half of what he did, but I do remember 2 angles on a bs 360 down the Love gap, fakie ollie switch bs noseblunt fakie varial flip out, and a bs 180 inward heelflip with a body varial (I think that's what it was) down the Le Dome double. None of this was his ender. If he didn't already win the award, he'd have my vote for SOTY. Overall, I thought it was a pretty damn good video. I'll probably grab it sometime within the next month when it falls onto my shop's shelves. Oh, and I was able to get the soundtrack from the credits, so if anyone wants it, hit me up.ATMhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17129393912802802468noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-782749821307540728.post-86228341707828862112008-09-02T22:19:00.002-04:002008-09-02T22:26:45.699-04:00So, I have a blog now.Awesome.
