Regular stance is a mental disorder defined by the DSM-5
I think the reason Tyshawn is likable despite seeming like a stuckup jock is because he's a jock but for filming three song parts. Like he has the same end goal as any hellride guy.
No interest at 39 in flipping my board anymore. Ive just rolled my ankle mis-timing the catch and fuck it, this is supposed to be fun

I regret it.

I’m currently floating around 195-200lbs 6’1. With maybe 2 threads showing. If you wanna give it a shot. It took the bite away quite a bit.

Stop filming on tape. It's 2022. HD is more practical in literally every scenario. Looks better, easier to use, SD cards are more accessible than tape, ect. You can't recreate what old videos had just because you're filming on the same gear.

Its just this awful middleground. Doesn't have the awesome 4:3 fisheye lense and aesthetic of the VX... its just like HD footage without glasses on.One thing I wish skating embraced more is 60-100fps footage. Skateboarding looks soooooo nice in HD 60+ FPS. Its criminal how few people are shooting in high frame rate.

That must be a much less stressful situation when you have a photographer shooting a sequence of you. I can think of quite a few times, while in the middle of shooting a sequence where the photographer had so many spent rolls of film laying on the ground and just feeling super fucking guilty and anxious for wasting so many rolls of film on a single trick and then there’s the situation when the photographer says “this is the last roll” which usually meant that you have 3 more more tries to land it. Back then a photographer had to be either a staff photographer for TWS, the skateboard mag” or thrasher to be able to shoot a sequence of a trick that might be a battle to make, they’d need that reimbursement from the magazine to be able to afford to waste so much film trying to get the make.
