Everything good in Canada to me? Everything's great in Canada. Weather's still not too bad, a little bit of rain, but still warm enough to get away with T-shirt and her knee, so we're not here when I just get. Yeah, it's just starting.
There's a couple of mornings where it's just starting to creep in now and it's like, I know it's coming. Like I've had a couple of short songs on Saturday, so it wasn't quite a nice day. I think this week's coming is good, but you can feel it. You know we just know it starts getting darker and it's just...
Yeah, that's it. You've got a lot of pressure in the morning. Oh, mate. When it really hits is when you go to work and it's dark and you come back from work and it's dark, that's when you know you're in a deep of it.
It's always around that just before Halloween and that's when it's kind of getting dark dark and then I like six, seven, again, you just... That's when it starts real kicking in. Yeah. But it's nice that, you know, season's changed, man.
You've got to go with it, right? You've got to just go with a flow. That's it. I think if someone would be as good if you didn't have the winner, you know?
Yeah, you wouldn't appreciate it, would you? No. I'm almost like knowing that the winner coming through all the, you know, autumn, fall. Actually, the Canadians call it fall, or they call it autumn, because obviously they've got an Englishness in them.
They call it fall. They fall it as well. Yeah. But yeah, you feel like there's only so many skates, good skates you've got left this year.
You know what I mean? Yeah. Back in the day, mate, we used to shred oxford. I loved our winner shreds.
I thought they were better than the summer days. I really did. Because you know, it was out, you know, all your gear on hood up, everything, beanie on. But I kind of felt like those were the days, right?
I enjoyed them ten times more than... Oh, yeah. And those days when it's dry outside, you just take full advantage. You know, it's extra special day, then, isn't it?
You know, and then you can go out, get, go to the spot you've been wanting to skate instead of just the ones that are just about dry. It's more special than that. And yeah, and I don't think you're as much of a snob when you go now, because like in the summer, so it's a little, little downfall, mate. You're like, ah, I can't skate today.
Even though you could, it'd dry up in like 20 minutes. You could, but it's ranked, right? So you call it. Whereas in the winter, like, you know when the, the ground's like when it's dry, it's gray, you know, like the tarmac, proper gray, and then you've got like the wet area around it, this black, but it still isn't really wet, so you don't really mind it.
You know, you've kind of changed your level of what you're gonna skate, because that was dry enough anyway. You know, the black stuff. It was wet, but it was dry enough, so you just put up with it. It wasn't wet enough.
And you can't be too much of a snob about spots because instead of, you know, you've got the summer, you, ah, fuck, it's place too busy, or this place. Let's go somewhere else. We're in the winter, if it's dry, it's just game on. Yeah.
You get away again. So yeah, you get more missions. You get a lot more missions out of it. And you just find the dry spots like that corridor spot that we used to go down and just hit up, you know, three-piece lines or whatever you wanna call them, you know, just maybe four if you can get another trick in there, maybe it's generally a three-piece sort of deal.
Oh yeah. But you're only working with, you know, what we're saying, like four foot or something, maybe five? Yeah. Yep.
Maybe five foot wide. But that was, we had some great sessions down there. Oh, mate, that was a good spot. Brick ground as well, mate.
You know, I love it. I have some white lights. Yeah, white lights, yeah, perfect. There's a nice bit of it.
I think of people and check it out. I don't know if you still want it on there, mate. There's a video of you doing a cab flip underneath there. Oh yeah, there was, yeah.
So maybe you can scroll through, where you can see it, nice little cab flip. And that's the spot we're talking about. Yeah. The only dry ground in Oxford.
Good spot, mate. I like that spot. I'm always gonna say to you. Oh yeah, I've been moving out, so I'm going through my shit, trying to get all my, I've got new computers.
I'm trying to get all my old shit off the old computer and organise my hard drives. Yeah. It's hard work, mate, because I don't, I'm not great at kind of organising them. They're named, but still.
You've got folders inside folders inside folders. It's a bastard. Anyway, I came across this one photo I took. I don't know if I spoke to you, it said this before, on the table, or what, but I came across this one photo I took in Portugal of actually an acover taxi.
I tell you this? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
So we just, this is probably one of our first holidays, with my family, sort of thing, with actually a couple of mates. Yeah. And I'm just taking a picture in the back of the cab. You know, just, it's when I'm not gonna take it, mate.
This is probably on a Sony Ericsson Walkman phone or whatever. You know, so it was novelty at the time. And then I don't know if it's late on that day or later anyway, I look back at the picture and there was an object in the sky. Have I told you this?
Oh, no. So I found that picture again anyway, so I brought up all these memories of, you know, the arguments and debates and me and actually had over this. Because I'm telling you, I'll have to send you it after the, I can send you an album. Quick one.
So did you know it was there when you took the photo? No. Right. No.
That's the, but I don't know if it was, like I said, I don't know if it was the same day. I'm sure we saw it. Because I was saying, it's a fucking, this is your photo background. So your photo is a disc shaped shiny metal thing in the air, mate.
No way. It's strange. Anyway, so bringing us back to the present day, maybe like a month ago, a few weeks ago, I was driving from my house towards Farrondon, just a long stretch of road. And I looked up in the sky, I'm telling you about this fucking shiny metal thing in the sky.
And I was trying my phone out. I mean, I shouldn't have been doing it, but I was like, fuck, I'm going to get my phone out and record this thing while driving the six miles an hour. Didn't do it, you know, didn't do it. Because the moment I tried to think about it, it disappeared.
It literally disappeared. It took off. Didn't zoom. It just, it was shiny.
It disappeared. And then just, just fade it out. So I was thinking, I tried to call Ashley and I wanted to tell her straight away. And then late that night, Ashley's brother came round and his, his beyond say, just to have a little, it's played some ball games, a few beers or whatever.
Yeah. So I was telling them about it. And I was like, you never fucking guess what I saw earlier. And then they, well, last night they said, there was a meteor shower.
So it could have, so they kind of pissed them off in cornflakes, if you will, because it could have been like a meteor coming to the atmosphere and then fade now. Do you know what I mean? So with that one, I'll. Wasn't I silver though, is it?
No, no. It looked like, yeah, exactly, exactly. But I'm just putting it out there, mate. You know, that maybe about a.
This is what you saw, whatever it was. Just what I saw, mate. It's what I saw. I thought it was an interesting thing just to start with this.
Have you ever had any encounters or anything you thought was like, not that you've seen something, because I didn't see the first one. And this one was just weird. But have you seen anything in the sky? You're like, what the fuck is that?
A long time, well, probably like eight, nine years ago, something like that. Me, few of the boys, probably like four, four, five of the boys, we was in the woods at nighttime, probably having a smoke, maybe having a camera fire or something like that. But I have a walking in or out. I can't remember which one.
You know, it's all dark. You know, stars are out looking at the stars and the moon walking back to the car and walking from the car. We see this light moving around in the sky. Maybe looking like, you know, sometimes you see those stars that are moving or you can't quite tell what it is.
Or a space station or something. Yeah, who knows? It's moving. It's not a plane or it doesn't appear to be a plane.
But then it shuffled about and disappeared. Kind of went side to side and then took off, not side to side. But we all saw it. So it wasn't just one of us being like, Oh God, did anyone see that?
It was kind of like, what was that? That's strange, yeah. You could say that it could possibly be this, could possibly be that. But that little shuffled aside, that rules out a lot of objects in the sky, right?
Yeah. And obviously you can't, no one filmed it. The guys all saw it. No one did I and seen it.
But that was it. It happened in less than a second. We were all kind of like, whoa. But you know, we all, we all see these moving things.
You know, sometimes I might be like a lantern. Someone's laughing. It's just a yellow glow in the sky. But who the fuck knows?
But it was, I saw it. Yeah. Yeah, it's going to say, when I look, when I initially looked at this object and it looked like a, the North Star. It was in a daytime.
Right. But that's what it looked like to me. OK. And then the kind of like the more I focused on it, the more I could like see that it was shining.
It wasn't like just, right, something was hitting, you know, the light was hitting this object. And then it then, like I said, scrambling to get my phone out of my pocket. The suit, like literally, so I touched my phone. It just, just faded off.
So, if you are watching, it's up with some technology or something, you know, we take it. Come on the podcast. Yeah, come on the podcast. Yeah.
Brumby, we'll have a chat. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Talk about a galaxy and shit, mate. You know, talk about.
That's how it goes. Yeah. You've got to hit Shankas for a minute, you mate. I do, mate.
I do, yeah. Yeah, right there. I was pulling out on John Lee's stag, do people talking about, uh, pythrix, you know, if you've got a pythrix and I was like, I don't really have a pythrix. I can bend my thumb in a way that nearly touches my thumb knuckle.
And it didn't, you know, it's like, oh, right, OK. I thought it was going to get more of a, I thought it was going to get more fucking credit than that, mate. Appreciation. Yeah.
There was no other pythrix. I'd have been like, move, bend your thumb now. Yeah. Show everyone how unflexible they're from.
Yeah, that's what I should have gone for the, yeah, let's compare. Your thumb can't do this. I mean, I got put their finger inside my thumb, you know, in that little space, make the show them how close that is, you know. Yeah.
But it still, uh, Did anyone trump it? No, no, no, no. No, no, no. I can't remember it anyway.
I don't think there was any pythrix. Yeah. Well, should we, should we shift on to some, some videos, mate? We've been, obviously the, the, the turbo tournament's been taking most of the limelight away from the skateboard at the moment, but we had to get it done.
You know, there's a lot of episodes we'd like to do. We need, we need to get to the end of it. So there's loads of videos that we probably missed, but there's a few recent ones that have really caught my eye. I, I absolutely love me.
There's some really, really good videos out there. Before we talk to one, talk about the ones we've seen, should we just speculate on this, uh, this honeymoon, the dickie video? They've had the video, the video from me is they've had, they've got like the deadline days sort of shit. Uh, is, is boy getting last part in that?
Is that what we're thinking? Trying to think who else could take that last part away from for, oh, you know, it'll be enough, you know, we could have the old Tom Knox in there. I don't know who, who's in there, does it say? Oh, Tom Knox is in there.
Uh, Jake Hayes, skates for the keys. And he is mean, motherfucker. How good is his kick flip, Ollie? He is.
He's got some poppers out. Oh, mate. Precise pop. There's not just power.
That is, that's technique. That is just watching his, watching his instagram videos on him on flat, just posting a kick flip. It's like, oh, no, it's going to be good. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I'm watching him on flat, just posting a kick flip.
It's like, oh, no, it's going to be good. And you're watching, if you're, I'm watching it go like, what, what is he doing? What actually, you know, when's the secret? Yeah.
When's he lifting his back foot? Like how much space is he leaving for his back foot to come up? Like all these little things? Because if he's, you know, word to the wise, if you see someone do something that good, study that shit, because there could be something, right?
There could be some little detail that you were just checking on the foot placement. Yeah, I was doing that earlier on a, um, I'm trying to think of what video was, I was watching someone do a, a Nolly, yeah, Nolly Hill. It was a guy in the Brian Pambienco part, uh, part, uh, video. Yeah.
The last, the last guy in that he's got like a, I think it's the first name is Quel or something. Yeah, Quel had it. Yeah. Yeah.
He's not healed. Beautiful. So good. He's a Jesus.
Yeah. So I study in that go like, what is he doing? What is he doing that makes it so easy? I couldn't figure out because he's just, he's got such fluid style mate that it's hard.
It's hard to kind of break that shit down. Definitely a very unique style. And this guy's got to be, you know, I don't, I've never met him. I've never met him.
He's probably seen him next to people. But this guy's got to be a six foot plus or eight to be, to be pumping that. Mad. You know, this guy probably, probably dunked some hoops as well.
You know, he's, he's a jumper. No problem. No problem. Guaranteed.
Yeah. You put your house on it, wouldn't you? Oh yeah. If you're an basketball court mate, and you're looking around and seeing if something dunk, he's, he's just, he's not loose, but athletic at the same time.
He's not like a tight athletic. He's just fluid. You know, he's awesome. Awesome.
Yeah. Should we jump into this video and just have a little bit more breakdown on it mate. Whenever Brian Pampianco's name comes up, it's a video I'm going to watch. He's 100%.
It's the kind of the skateboard and the eye you want to see, street skateboard in. So I wouldn't necessarily say like absolute banger after banger, but it's the real life ground ledge game that you want to see. It's how they operate in day to day. That's what we're seeing in these videos.
Yeah. And I mean, the cover, the thumbnail of this mate is the, is the backside that he ends it with. Yeah. Let me just try and find what was his name again mate.
Quel had it or something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. So he hits that backside over the domino, the municipal plaza. Have you been there mate? I've never been there.
No. I've never been there. No. I'd love to.
I don't think I'm only in that thing ever. That's like a manual pad. Yeah. But I don't think I could run and jump like this and that.
I know reference, but it's big. It's tall. The thing is, it's tall. If it's a little bit lower, I think you probably could all over it.
It's the hang time you're going to need to get over that last lecture. You know, you're probably going to be landing a wheel on that or board side in the back of it. There's no doubt you can get up onto it. I'm not going to look at that middle domino mate.
You've got like the, it's a five or a six on there. I can't really see because the play button's in the way. But that middle domino is, that's a decent, the middle circle is quite a decent length, just to that with the height and laying the law down with a backside blip. One of those tricks as well.
It can travel. You can get backside up, but the trust that you're going to clear it. Oh. And you know, you can't hit these things obviously.
You can't hit these things slow. You know, you've got to be macking it to even get near something like this. I think he runs, just runs on his board, isn't he? Full charge run.
Yeah. I don't think there's any pushes involved. I had to watch it a couple of times because with his slightly looser style, I couldn't quite tell part of the angle as well as a backside heel to start because some people have those magic backside heels that just travel as well. Yes.
Yeah. And you can, I'm not really much of a backside healer, but you can get that little bit of extra pop sometimes to the hill flip, but you can't quite get with a kick flip and take enough of the backside flip. It's probably a little bit more impressive. Oh yeah.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, definitely. So this is, yeah. Brian Pampianco's not bad video.
And it's basically got all the usual suspects on there, you know, you've got, you know, we've got sprinklings of K-LIS, Shanahan, you know, Bill, you've got all the boys, Vaylo, and even if we get two clips of a mate or one clip or what? So special, I know it's really cool. It's, again, it's how it's how to put a video together. And no one really does it better than Brian Pampianco.
He says I think he's just edited in the last look. Yeah, it really captures it. Yeah. Dylan Sal beer, we've had a couple of Sal beers before in a couple old videos as well, but a little bit more of the other guys this time as well, which is really fucking cool.
Like you say in a couple of clips of everyone really. Yeah, there's just so many, like Joey O'Brien, Alien, Skater and I think there's a couple of Alien boys in there as well, which is cool because it works, right? You know what I mean? Oh yeah, definitely.
Right, right. It just, and Kayliss's little flip nose man you made is a beaut, such a nice... And wait a second, there was one mate right at the back of... Yep.
When it was that switch front side heel flip he does over the... over the dust bin was the... was it a regs. He's a coofy, right?
Yeah. Yeah, so it was switch. Yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah.
The biggest it was. Catches it like a heel flip and then just almost a late 180 out of it. Yeah, it's kind of like what I tried doing with my front side flips. Dumb profession.
He's still doing it in the air. Like he's got, he's got, he's just, yeah, like you said, he catches it and he's almost just got 90 degrees mate, if that. Yeah. And then the last minute hit rotation just swing down this, the, the, the season is knees mate.
This is a five minutes and kind of 30 seconds. And the seas in his landing is why we hold weightless armos so fucking high. It is... Yeah.
I could watch that. That needs to be on a loop, you know, on that loop channel the skate loop or whatever it's called. I could watch that for just at least a minute mate of just a 10 second clip over and over again. I could easily, I could work with that.
Oh, easy. And it's just the, yeah, he's so precise and he's so, he's got the special bar for balance. And I love how they're bringing the, you know, a lot of the, the legendary spots into play as well. Changing spots as well, making new kickers, going over different gaps.
I particularly like the tricks over the fence that K-list switched over in the DC video. There's a few clips. Yes. And it's just, there's a spot you want to go to, right?
It's a true test. It's a basic spot, probably really crusty. But if you're throwing down at those spots, you know, you know, you've come from, you know your inspirations, you know your reference points. Yeah, really, really cool.
Yeah. Same old spots, but switched up. Different tricks, using them differently. Really, really fucking cool video.
Anything that's in M.A.? I think I would have to go with Quel'Halex. I thought his, his section is just, like I said, his style is a bit different to what you'd expect to kind of like a true pop-a-to-be. But when you're floating, you float in everything mate.
You float through frontside flips over gaps. Beautiful tray. Hammers out like a such a nice back-on-80 over one of those barriers at Muni as well. Yeah, just watch that one now.
It's the end of a line. But it was the trick to do. You're not going to be doing much over that, you know, over that leg at the end of that mate. After that, you're going to throw out.
But back one is a classy move. Oh, very classy move. You know, a high back one is a strong move mate. So I would say that's my highlight.
I mean, I love seeing Kevin Bill you obviously bit of Shanahan. Bill you get to a little bit, a few more tricks. But there's, there's, I've just, you know, again, Quel'Halex is shove. Is it a shove over?
Yeah, there we go. Yeah, he starts with the shove. Shove over the barrier. Does the, is it the knollie flip and then the back one 80?
Yeah. It's such a good. And then, and then, have you got any favorites mate? Anything that's?
Just before his last trick, the tray flip off of the kicker over the little ledge wolf thing. Really high pop on that sort of thing. Really impressive. It's about the 10, 10 minute four seconds mark.
And yeah, and it's got the drop after that as well. So you've got to have a solid catch or something like that. But he really did it for me. Quel, you know, is a really good shout to have, have him as last and I really showcase some of his skills.
Think we used to see a little bit more of him back in the day. You know, sometimes you see more people on Instagram or other, other pockets and here really showcased it. Well, completely deserved. That's it.
You know, obviously you had the best footage mate. And the person with the best footage, you know, that's the way it goes generally. Yeah, definitely. So should we give it a little turbo rating mate?
I mean, I'm, I'm, I would give this is for a 10 minute video. I'm giving this a four. This ticks every box soundtrack. Not too many, not too much B roll, ledge tricks.
It's not Hammer Hammer Hammer. So we, you know, don't get a five, but there's super tech manuals in there mate. Really unique spots. I could watch it.
Definitely. I could watch this again. Going for a scale. Oh, yeah.
This is, this is one of the, this is, it reminds me of a 411. It's just, it has, you know, has the names for the skaters. You don't miss anyone. Loads of different styles, lot of different shoes in their mates.
So the shoes, you know, shoes take the styles, right? Yeah. So, yeah, I just, I would give it a four out of five person. I love it.
I would agree with you. I'd give it a four as well. Just all the right faces, all the right spaces filmed really well. You know, actually makes you want to go out and skate and skate street as well.
So really nice. Yeah. Nice one, Brian. Absolutely killed it again.
Always does. And we look forward to the next one. So what have we got next mate? We haven't, you haven't seen a brand of Burley Zero video, have you?
But we could touch on that now. I watched it earlier. And it's, it's really good. You know, Brandon Burley's got his own sick back style mate.
He's, he's low on the ground. He's kind of an aggressive skater. You know, I don't think he rides the vans. Must have looked like he rides the vans.
Yeah. Right. So for the upper hair, hair products mate as well. You know, that's one of his answers.
So he's true to his gimmick, but that's improper. Again, not, he does twisted fifties. He does certain tricks that aren't necessarily my cup of tea, but there's no way that you could kind of dispute what he's doing. Maybe he lands out with a bit of a surfy, surfy end.
Like if you go to his, his ender is a huge fiftie down a ridiculous rail. It is ridiculous. But he's, you know, so surfy is a lot, he's quite low as well when he grinds. I mean, you don't always have to pick that.
That's a preference, but he's quite low in a lot of these tricks. Even like a backboard or something, he's quite low in it. Whereas I'm more of like, I prefer to see some extend personally. That's just my thing.
I'd much prefer. It might be easier to stay low. I don't know, but I prefer to see some stand on theirs. Whereas he's a bit more of a grounded, he kind of goes low, even on his, on his, on his, on his tricks mate.
He's quite a, quite, he's got a lot of, which is, which is cool. Good soundtrack as well. Kind of like, I don't know if it's greasy or, you know, that sort of, that sort of style would go with his slick back hair as well mate. So it's all a lot of slow mo, you know, it works.
I'll make you, I'm just watching that last, that last, last, last, last, straight 50, 50 is massive. Yeah, it's, it's ridiculous. There's not many people touching that. No.
Yeah, it looks good. I've seen a few clips now, a couple of ditch spots in there as well. Definitely going to have to check it out. Yeah, he fits, he fits the bill.
It is a zero part, definitely. Like it, it, it, it's, and it's a good pro part mate to get them on, but then it's been on the team for a while. But I think they released like the American zero board was named on it as well. So I don't know if it's, it's pro part or more of a proper establishing team sort of deal.
But when you're 50, 50,000 with that big, you are kind of separating yourself from a lot of people. Even the five over four hand is, is ridiculous. Yeah. Just, it says on a brand and bow low American zero pro part.
So that's quite nice. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Would you rate that? Would you give that a little rating? Yeah, I'd give it three mate. You can't give it, you know, I think of any load in the three, just for the caliber of tricks he's doing.
There's some proper gnarly fucking spots. Yeah. The grimy street spots in there and some proper rails mate. And when real raves are involved, real raves are involved, you can't, you can't attack anyone for their style or anything like that.
If someone's going down proper hand rails or huge out ledges, he does not the front tail side down this fucking humongous outledge three minutes and 10 seconds. If you go to that, the pain you'd be in. If you've slipped out and went down at the end of that, then you've got to pause mate. Is that, yeah, if you get three minutes or eight seconds, three minutes, nine seconds, he's near enough at the top of it.
The height of the thing. That's, if you mess up, you'll go, you'll go and know me in ambulance with that sort of stuff. Yeah. So it's a tail side, you know, easily whip out the back of it.
I mean, that's why he's obviously low, making sure he comes out and raves as well mate. So he's under control of that thing. But yeah, I'll give it a three. There's just too much big shit.
It's kind of, yeah, I can't give him a four just because I'm not seeing loads, you know, I'm not going to kick the down the stairs set, which I'd like to see. A bit more technical. Yeah, just something simple as that or, you know, a flip to crook on the ledge. He's got a meaty crook right at the start of the video.
It's super, super long, super fast. I try and find the timestamp right now for it. He's hitting all the stuff that a zero skater should hit. So he's taking all the boxes.
Here we go. It is at two minutes in and it's just a cleanest crook, kind of bounce of a curve on his dismount, but it's really nicely done. Oh, yeah, that's a proper crook, guys. He's right in there.
Made a good sound as well, sir. Yeah, so it's definitely worth checking out. If you haven't seen it, go and check it out. You won't be disappointed with it and it goes by quickly.
So it's not like it doesn't drag, even if it's a lot of slow movement there. It doesn't drag for a try and take a long set of long distances. It's not super long. Eight minutes.
Yeah, eight minutes. Probably three of them are credits. So it's an easy video to stick on. Yeah, nice.
What have we got next? What have we got next, mate? GX 1000 in Japan? That's a pretty cool video.
I thought it was really cool. It's always nice when you get the GX showcasing a different country. Obviously it's nice. We love seeing it in America, especially in SF, but highlighting the other people's little fast, quick, jibby sparks and some of their riders.
Really cool. Yeah, you couldn't say that any better, mate. It's literally dropping. It's like having a fantasy sort of style of if you could grab any skater and drop them in any spot to see what they're going to do.
Because Tokyo's got a few little hills and everything like that in there. Who better take that hillbomb in the hitchhicks down into banks or do the hitchhicks after a hillbomb? It's the GX 1000 crew. Power slides and everything, mate.
It's just cool to see them in a different environment. Still shredding exactly the same. Oh, yeah. No, definitely.
I know the vintage pan, but obviously I've watched a lot of the skate clips and videos. It's kind of like a futuristic Barcelona sort of thing. You've got all the marble granite ledges and a lot of plazery sort of build. So you can get those real cool little banks and everything like that.
Yeah, it's pretty much like that. The only thing I'd say is giving the bass a little bit. I mean, it's a lot of spots, but a lot of the spots are famous spots, like Macapur, like parallel, like university. You do have quite a lot of room around you, whereas some of the spots in Japan is a little bit tight.
Yeah, definitely. It's a busier city. I saw a picture earlier at the size of the Great Tokyo area compared to London. And it like gliders the whole of the Midlands, mate.
The whole really great London where it is and then how total it's slapped next to it. It basically just takes up from Oxford to fucking Nottingham or something. It's that big. It's crazy.
So it's not even really a small fucking state right than a city now. It's so big. Yeah, I wanted to stay from about 45 seconds onwards. They're skating this brick building that's sloped up like a half pipe.
You don't really see spots like that unless you're in Japan or something like that. What a cool spot. Just imagine being at that spot, even if you couldn't do a trick on the transition, mate. Do it a line down there.
Just carve it up and down. Just to separate your line. You don't have to do anything special. Just do a little bit of a little powers on and come out back fakie or something.
Maybe I'll be able to do a little kick flip on a backside style and carry on. Nothing up there. I ain't going up near those windows, mate. But it would be so cool just to roll around there.
It's a bit fun. Just roll up down the fakie. Imagine having something like that while you're cruising to a spot or cruising somewhere. Just carving it up and down a couple times.
That'd be so fun. Yeah, awesome spot. And the texture because it's a brick and the ground's the same texture as well mate. It's going to sound and it's going to feel nice.
And it just looks nice as well. Like proper red bricks. Yeah. It just enhances that spot.
The clip that I really liked in this video was when I think it's one of the Japanese lads. He's kind of skating from this. We kind of like, someone's like a bridge that is on a weird platform. Coloured like it's a yellow, a wooden kind of wall, like frame sort of thing.
Then he jumps out from that, lands into a bank on this, like a flat bank. Then it goes down a bank and then straight whips him down a stair set. It's probably like an eight or something. Yeah, can I eight, seven or eight there?
And he's fighting it. This is at the four minutes and four minutes, twenty, four, eighteen. And he's just battling this. He just keeps trying to push off down the bank.
And it's just, you know that whip at the end of the bank mate. He's only just, you know, he just needs to ride out on it. Yep. So quick.
Try so that you wouldn't even think about it. It's like, no, I'm not interested in that. I know the outcome. I'm going to be off the back of the board.
Because you're going to be over-compensating when you go down thinking you're going to need to be to level yourself out. But you're going to put all your weight in the back and you're going to land on your arse on the stairs. You're going to kind of swipe out all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way worse. That's happened to you.
Then you say a little bit more forwards than just dig into the front. Stick. And then you just break your collarbone at the bottom of the stairs. Yeah, no, really, really cool one because it's a little, you know, you get to see the little battle with it.
And yeah, you can just tell how fucking hard that is. Yeah, no one's ever going to kick the down that after that mate. That is, you might, someone might be able to back one it. Or maybe a front one.
They might be able to just swing it, swing it and hope it. But the ground looks pretty sketch on the landing as well mate. Yeah, it's like a dusty sandy so. Yeah, getting some carpet burns on the bales and that.
But just full of loads of cool spots. And I also really like the soundtrack as well mate. There's some nice kind of just quite a chill vibe to it a lot of it. So it's not this or a fast pace watch I wouldn't say compared to say like the previous video we watched.
But it's still a fun video to watch. It's still what it kind of keeps the heart and fun of the skateboard involved. It's like, yeah, you can just shred down hills. And that's what we need to do.
Yeah, no really good. Another quick one I want to mention. I think it's around the 518 mark. It kind of rolls off this little rolling.
Dropped to back 50. And it's just quite a raw little trick I really like that one. Just ride it out somehow. It's like you're at the spot.
You're just chatting away mate. It's like, do you think? Yeah. Do you think you could do that?
Like something someone's thinking, well, give it a go. Yeah. And like you said, the way it hits the 50 mate, Jesus, it's like, ugh. But he holds it, holds on with the alive and lands it.
And makes the cut. Yep. Yeah, definitely really, really cool spots in this video part. Make it jealous.
Maybe make it want to go to Japan and bring your skateboard with you. The end of the trick, mate, the ollie down into the bank, pass over the stairs. There's a bank on the right-hand side of the stairs. So we ollie's down into the bank.
The bear, we first bail on that. We absolutely wipes out. It's crazy. So even considering going back up there after that, like, getting some road rash, it's heavy.
It's brick wall work on him as well there. Yep. But he makes it. Yeah, no, definitely pure danger.
Attacking something like that. At night as well, mate. So the shadows involved, you know, got trustable. Making an even harder for your awareness.
Yep. Yeah, three people come in the morning. They've just, you know, they just put the phone up. It's three in the morning when they did that.
Yeah, imagine that. This is harder than the turbo rate. I think I'm going to pass on the turbo rate on this one, mate. It's a different style of video, you know.
It's given it to would be injustice. I know Johnny would fire it too out straight away, but maybe he wouldn't, maybe because he doesn't do a hill one. Yeah. It's a more, it's not a tall video, but you do not mean it's closest to the bottom.
I was going to say it's almost on that tall video vibe stuff. It's more of a Japan showcase with an extra couple guys in there. But I suppose it is a tall video, really. So, you know, it is the boys going to Japan.
So, yeah, I'm not going to, I'm not going to great it. We'll leave that one. Yeah, it's not really a fair video part sort of thing to do a bit hard. Yeah, great video.
Should we move on to the love in Malmo video, mate? Yes. Because I absolutely love this part. So this video.
Oh, so good. The boys we like to see, the likes of Pambienco, Fred Gaughal getting in there as well, mate, which is super highlight for me. I couldn't, but I was like, and he looks exactly the same as he did in like the fucking Happy Tap video, you know, like, he hasn't changed a bit and he's still shredding. And he was, there was a couple of tricks he was doing where I was like, did it watching it.
Yeah, that's cool. I was like, wait, that was still Fred, boy, we still still going. There was a couple of people in between the section, but he had some really good clips. Yeah, who else would be like Kevin Beaewe in there, Shanahan?
Yeah. So, did you get a clip, maybe a couple of clips. Do you mean a brown gets a really nice, really nice flip into leg tricks, which is a master out. He's got some really, really nice tricks.
Do we have some, do we have some Chris Falo? A couple of Chris Falo's in here? Yeah, I think Falo's in there as well. Yeah.
Because he had a really good line, I think. So I'll just read the caption of this video. It's skaters across the globe across from the Love Park's redesign scrap, the East Coast's most iconic ledges. However, the city of Malmoe managed to resurrect a few to honor the legacy.
So they're saying that these are actually ledges from there, or they're just saying this was the design that they were going to use in Philadelphia and they've kind of just re-imagined it. Oh, yeah, I feel like they just kind of re-design some of the old love park ledges and put them up there and then in that plaza as like a legacy sort of thing. So really fucking cool. It makes me want to go there, mate.
Yeah, and it's a lot closer to home than you guys as well. Yeah, and also how like the red squares and there as well, mate, the touch is authenticity and there is just like, fuck me, it probably would. The ledges need to meet some age. They need to meet.
You know, that white block underneath it needs to be a little bit grime, yeah. It's going to be scuffed up and everything. Yeah, but they've got the dust bin. They've got everything.
So really, really cool for a, you know, I'm sure the government or the town council for that area of Malmo must have been pretty cool or really in tune with listening to the locals. That's something like that, special. That's what it's meant to be between that and Copenhagen. And obviously Copenhagen's got a great skate culture, but you know, let's them do the Copenhagen open.
