So sick of it

I 'am so sick of watching all these new skate clips / movies and there is about 60% skating and rest is close ups of pushing, Jumping on the skateboard, contemplating a trick and all round shit that has nothing to do with skateboarding.

go kill yourself then

In what way does "jumping on the skateboard" have nothing to do with skateboarding?

cant agree more!

just pour it all out man, there's always someone who's willing to listen to your blatant selfishness.

The dopest trick I can do is pushing. You're going to hate my debut part.

I like when they show an attempt/stack or two at the trick then show the make.

yeah fuck skateboarding

I like it when it's 60% Meatspin and the rest is pushing and close ups and skateboarders and stuff that has no place in skateboarding.

-agree!!




push push, artsy building angle, push, fashionable landing style, push push push, answer iphone, push push, european dog, push push push

I agree... the Element 'Trio' clips have too much padding.

Especially the footage of Chad Tim Tim sitting on the toilet, doing a poo. Do we have to see that?

All the skating is rad though.

I think Callum Paul showing off his pasty white chest falls into this category of hate.. Otherwise, this thread has little merit..

haha.. welcome to my rants 10 years ago..

pretty much the word your looking for is 'Art Fag'.

I agree 100%. Less skaters trying to act, less sunsets and wanna-be spike jonze HD filler shots..

Baker are about the only ones who do it well. At least when they use filler footage its of someone vomiting or greco laying the beat into some fat rentacop..

"or greco laying the beat into some fat rentacop.. "

Really??? Sure thats popular amongst 12 year old boys, but that kind of shit tops my list of pathetic fillers.

Don't forget that beating into a roided wannabe cop doesn't always end up in skate filming glory. Greco is hardly an MMA fighting champion. It's interesting because you never know which way its going to go.

But yeh, if watching faded sunsets, closeup trucks doing 5-0's on small ledges in 60p HD and dudes pretending to wake up in their bedroom and not notice a filmer standing over their beds is 'mature filler footage' then bring on the 12 year old mentality anyday. Baker lads are not fake, antwuan is as looney as he acts, greco was as messed up as he looked, dollin is as much an alcho as he is portrayed. Its real filler, not movie making shenanigans.

"Especially the footage of Chad Tim Tim sitting on the toilet, doing a poo. Do we have to see that?"






well, yeah

IMO the baker shit is the worst..
i'd much rather see some extra shots of roll ups and pushing than people vomiting and hitting each other..

I don't mind shenanigans. I just don't like it when wealthy skateboarders assault mimimum wage workers on film to make themselves more money..

Hook ups van in the end.... thats some good filler

i really like it when its done well. ty evans did a great job of it in fully flared. sometimes he overdoes it though like in the welcome to chocolate vincent alvarez video. either way, the new HD chocolate video is going to have heaps of it

cant hate on the baker vibe,

^yeah, rad vibe man...if you're 15

greco aside, nothing wrong with baker vibe

street skating, smoking weed, getting drunk and having fun, don't need to be a kid to do that

was it 'Yeah Right' that had the invisible skateboard section? That was rad.

...or not a pretentious snob. i like clips that show more than tricks, gives insight to peoples character and company vibe. Art fag shit gets so boring. people vomiting and fighting is fun to watch. skating should be raw.
