Wow, that was really good.  I think that true hip-hop and skateboarding are a perfect combination, almost like jazz and skateboarding.  Travis Glover really surprised me with his footage.

All praise aside, I would never buy any Zoo York product.

No slow-mo or anything on the backside kickflip up that gap to loading dock. Yeah, why bother? Its just a casual back kick....
Westgate is a lunatic.

It's cool to see Chaz Ortiz branching out and doing some tricks that not many people do, like that front tail front heel.
Black Dave fakes it so hard.
I dig Kevin Tierney's footage, but I don't expect many other people on here to agree with me.
Would have loved to see a little bit more footage from Suski.
Ron Deily has to be one of the most underrated guys out right now.
Travis killed it super hard, psyched to see he's getting some love!
Brandon Westgate's bit of footage was sick, definitely left me wanting more. Can't wait for an emerica video?

As a whole, 8 minute web clips shouldn't have teasers. Thank you and good night.

Still mad at that whole situation for both Zered and Eli.

Soundtrack was cool. I think RB should just edit all the videos to 90's hip-hop. That Just Blaze and Ghost song was cool though.

They are claiming "true east" without Zered and Eli Reed.. I find that hilarious.

with that aside, Travis Glover was dope.

BlackDave and Kevin Tierney are wack as hell

and I wish everyone else had more footage. Westgate's half cab flip made me yell

I've never seen such a spectrum of style in one person. And yet, we have Travis Glover. Dude's got the Twuan steez when he's jumping down stuff, but as soon as he tries to get tech, his style goes to shit.

Also, Westgate's last ollie made me yell quite loudly. Truly the best of the new wave.

I have never, ever, complained about filming, but that second part (and keep on going) was fucking horribly filmed.
I'd like to see more Deily.
Glover guy was fucking awesome.
Westgate already rules, thanks for continuing that.
Chaz may have had a couple good tricks, but I could not view it objectively, and I tried to.

Zoo shouldn't have the right to put out a video using wu and mob deep unless Anthony Correa, Todd Jordan and Quim have parts in it. Not to mention playing when the east is in the house during the credits made me physically ill......trying to front like it was 97 and you could do tricks over the brooklyn banks wall.

Wow that was a surprisingly good watch.  On one hand it sucks it's so short for that ADD internet generation, but saying that I'll definitely be watching it again in full.  Reminded me of my favorite videos from when I started skating (probably just because of the soundtrack).  Really have no clue how that Kevin T. dude is sponsored by anybody.

I agree, Black Dave and the rest of the new guys are sick. It felt Zoo was trying to capture their old grimey aesthetic but in reality their owned by a publicly traded company, it seemed disingenuous to the people who have watched the change of the company since its inception.

When living in Philly, Kevin Taylor was always a piece of shit. Not like "I met a pro and he wasn't what I wanted him to be" but more "holy fuck why is this dude so fucking rude to everybody?". End talk of a personal grudge against Kevin Taylor.

I'm 31 so obviously this refers to me in my prime, but I could've done a fair amount of Kevin Tierney's part with equivalent style. If you ask me to prove it, I'll flip off my monitor. Sorry Kevin, them's the breaks.

Zoo York is a lame fucking company but their team aside from dickhead and me 10 years ago is super sick. Even Chaz Ortiz. If my name was Chaz, I'd go with whatever my middle name was. Even if my name was Chaz Adolf Hitler Ortiz.

It puts a figurative spring in my step to know that somewhere in the world, Brandon Westgate is skateboarding right now. Or in a few hours. Or a few hours ago.

Fuck Kevin Taylor.

Zoo York calling their video "True East" ages since Ricky Oyola rode for them is just straight up disrespectful.
Kevin Tierny and his shitty frontside lipslides to frontside out suck.
Those two criticisms aside, I thought it was a good video and will probably watch it a few more times.  Just seeing those spots got me stoked enough.

Never heard anyone call KT a asshole. Used to skate Philly a bunch back in the day and he was always super cool and mellow to everyone. Anyhow. If I could skate like anyone on the planet right now it would be Brandon Westgate. Good promo flick.

how can someone spend 20 years of their life filming skateboarding and still be sub par at it?

Exactly.  What was with the weird up and down shake move he did so often after the single tricks?  Filming should enhance the skating, not distract from it.  It's like RB was told he needs to have some movement with his camera, but doesn't know why or how to make it look good.
