Wow that was quick. Such a sick video, I may have to watch it tonight. I remember buying both copies because I just couldn't wait.

A friend and I drove an hour south to another Slap pal's crib to see a terribly quality FF about a week after it came out.

Gave my copy away to some younger kids in 2009 and haven't seen it since. I'm on the hasn't aged well / didn't live up to the hype train as well.

Weird to think that at that time, Thrill of it All and Timecode were 10 years old.

no but it is a thread where some of us prove they have NOTHING NICE TO SAY

On that note, imagine if the video was made by someone who didn't suck?

Those decks sold out fast, The Pappalardo one feels like it doesn't even exist. Those wheels were on eBay last spring for $25, I think they were like 52s. Also MJ posted on instagram a few years ago that he found a set of them in the pocket of his car door. Those are some scene kid shoes though, I can't imagine anyone on the team rocking those.

I only can dream about a Fully Flared Danny Garcia part.  He was on fire on that period of time. :'(

Fully Flared was the first skate video I bought with my own money and my first real video I ever saw. It blew twelve year-old me's mind!

I've watched the video so many times as a kid that the songs and tricks are burned into my brain.

I watched it a few weeks ago all the way through for the first time in years and it holds up really well in my opinion. Crazy fucking tricks, a good soundtrack, and MJ's magnum opus. Alex Olson and Pops' parts are my favorite now, but at the time I remember really liking Mike Mo and Koston.

I still can't believe they went through with Mike Mo's switch flip in the opening scene. He could have died.

Biebel's part is a classic. The gear and the song are so dope haha.

I'm most grateful to the video for introducing me to Crailtap in general. I ended up watching Yeah Right on YouTube shortly after seeing it.

If you haven't seen it already, watch The Final Flare. Gives a lot of insight into the making of the video and some cool behind the scenes stuff. It's floating around on YouTube.

Cairo's part doesn't get enough love. It was one of my favorites in FF.

This thread reminds me that I'm old. At the time when this came out, I was starting to have more time for skating and had gone to most crail premiers (except gold fish and Yeah Right) but I wasn't sure if I would get hooked up with a ticket. I did and therefore felt this video to be extra special. The house went fucking crazy for Mike Mo, Guy, and the French connection part. Watching Pop's part felt weird because like manny I had photosynthesis in mind. Anyhow, I think this was Guy's last good part and although it's Slap blasphemy, I don't think Pop's part was as forward thinking as many think (before you hate, just know that I had seen similar skating in videos like subzero where East coasters did their thing).  At the end of the premiere I drove by Mike Carrol and I told him I thought the video was epic. He smirked and said, "yeah, we'll do better next time." I never thought he wouldn't keep his word. I was so fucking hyped I bought a Mariano Fully Fared board the following week and that shit broke in 2 days. Haha.

Beetwen Mosaic and Inhabitants was the change of team indeed. He only had a minute on eSpecial  and Inhabitants is just three minutes long. Maybe theres a bunch of footage with Lakais on his feet that never came out, a couple of minutes at least. And maybe some more never seen before footage with eS shoes over his Habitat board.

Remember TReS AMIGOS, that promo was great. Origin part was two minutes long and finally Search the Horizon but three tricks or something like that.

i used to check the crailtap daily randoms a lot (havent in years).  i submitted an acronym for Lakai and won a free copy way before it was in my local shop with a bunch of other stuff mailed to me from rick and mike.   what a great memory.

Let's Acquire Kenny Anderson Immediately

damn i miss those daily randoms.  wish some of those amazing quotes and blurbs were in a book.
where is home?

Quality skating and I love AO, Lucas, Rick and Kostons parts.

Overall the video was too caught up in its own melodrama to enjoy as a whole. It also leaves a weird legacy: Ty continued his FF bullshit and ruined pretty sweet, Pops became a crackhead, AO had the better future than Mikemo. Jake Johnsons Mindfield part wouldnt be so tight if it didnt shit on every trend started by FF...but whatevs.

But you haven't seen it in 8 years

Well good point...but like dude said above, Jale Johnson's mindfield part dropped and sorta shitted on a lot of trends created by that video- I think both in terms of the actual skating in FF as well as the production/editing. That's purely subject obviously, but the direction of skateboarding in general definetly changed course- and here we are today. Which is fucking rad. Do you think FF is worth revisiting?

Also remember being bummed on Pops' part... there were a handful of good tricks though.. almost remember feeling like a lot of photos leading up to it were more exciting than the footage itself. Wouldn't ever compare anything from this video to Subzero but his Mosaic part was one of the greatest from that era, so it was a bummer how underwhelming his Lakai part turned out

I loved the whole video but euro doods and marc johnson were the parts I repeated most

Kinda wish guy didnt have the last part but I still enjoyed his skating, as weird as it was

Whoever mentioned second hand smoke, thank you! Jeremy wrays part is my favorite part ever.

i was watching this in the international house dorm in college and one kid said to a chick that rollerblading was harder (when watching MJ's part) and that he would never watch porn cause he wouldn't disrespect women in that way.

my roommate was cool. he liked the video and would sing 'im all out of love' to himself without any hint of irony while doing homework.
