Wow, that Seven Strong part was an instant rewatch. He just got on Supreme, right? A matter of time before he blows up.
A very tidy watch.
-
Flow trash in 2020 is insane
-
Very sick skating, that candid kickflip manual bs 180 on flat was wild. Some fucked up slams too. 16 at the end was the most well shot ive ever seen in a skate video
-
fucking phenomenal.
-
That was truly brilliant and fresh.
Best thing I’ve seen in a long long time.
The skating had a lot of character and the film making was just sublime.
‘There’s someone called Alex...Olson on the phone for you!??!’
-
This shit is nutty.
-
Seven Strong is a hell of a great name. Everyone killed in this video!
-
Wow. I skipped straight to Seven Strong's part to see what it was all about, ended up watching Patrick O'Mara's part out of curiosity, and then fuck it, had to go back to the front to watch the whole damn video. That was sick. Felt like I was definitely watching the next generation of heavy hitters.

this felt like what those melodi kids are going for yet fall flat
this was amazing. joseph campos has something special, saw him skating at frogtown a couple years ago and he's so insanely consistent. all these kids seem to have bright futures

Had the same thought, makes that shit look even more tryhard/extra than it already obviously is. Still personally not the biggest fan of staring at closeups of kids’ facial expressions for an awkward length of time, but lack of contrived emo/aggro/outcast preening vibes is much appreciated

Man the whole site is pretty sick: https://ensembleroom.com/ (https://ensembleroom.com/)
Keep up the good work, nice to see projects like these - reminds me of that vid Goin' Ham and many like it from years past. It's always cool to see younger skaters starting to film, and eventually coming up with projects like these and working on them.

This video truly embodies the post-cherry generation. Not knocking tho, this is video is really sick
-
joseph campos has it.
-
the future is looking bright for these kids
-
I love watching Roll-Ups to Ollie's
-
Wow, that was amazing.
The footage looked so damn good in this, better than some of the videos coming out for big companies.

I wasn’t expecting to watch the whole thing. I’m blown away. The skating is great, but the editing and filming is what really got me. I even liked the live band background tracks. You can really feel this was made with care and without pretension. The ending credits 16mm film style is beautiful. Can’t wait to see these guys come up.

Damn great vid, absolutely beautiful editing, super intimate film work. Keeping me hyped!
-
we are we are (we are) the youth of the nation
-
Sick to see these kids coming into their own
This was put together very well
-
I can see everyone from this video (filmer included) blowing up in a few years, and justifiably so. Really enjoyable from beginning to end, particularly Joseph Campos' part.
-
Campos and Strong makes the future of skateboarding look bright

I wouldn't go that far. I think of it filming style wise as a mix between Call Me 917 #2 and BLESSED.

i'm not knocking. I like Strobeck, although i get why some don't.
more-so just saying how much it owes to his work (film, edit, etc). feels very post-Cherry
agree on the 917 comparisons, but that seems more obvious considering a handful of these kids are hooked up by the brand.

these kids good.

what a great watch. felt really fresh and effortless. the filming and edit is so fucking good.

Sorry to bump this, but I finally watched this for the first time last night. I'm usually not a fan of crews that try super hard to recreate the Supreme/917/FA/Hockey vibe with their edits, but this perfectly nailed all the best aspects of that kind of filming and editing for me. I've never heard of any of them until now but my prediction is that these kids get even better and blow up in the next 2-3 years. The first and the last guys seem so young still!
Also, Seven Strong's part was one of the best I've seen in recent times. That front blunt casually thrown in the middle of his part at 12:20 is absolutely insane. I made my partner rewatch that one with me a couple of times.
-
yea this was hard.
-
seven strong is my new favorite skater
-
wow, i needed this video.
this crew is incredible.

"That’s another reason why I don’t want to work in skating. You’ve got to answer to a bunch of older dudes who think they know it all because they’ve been pro since the ‘90s. Skating belongs to the kids. They don’t work for you, you work for them. You’re lucky to have had an audience this long, so appreciate that these kids even buy your shit, don’t abuse them. That’s my message to all the older company owners."

as a fellow young person...
couldnt have said it better myself
there's a big difference between respecting your elders and being forced to process skating through a 40 year olds eyes

I got a chance to meet Michael recently and he’s a really good kid with a good head on his shoulders. That quote is as spot on as it gets.

This quote is good, but I thought his response to the question about influence was bad.
"I guess that if you really care about what other people think, then it can be a real fine line. As I said, nobody influences me in skateboarding. Even if [those filmers] didn’t exist, I would film and edit exactly the way I do now. That’s just how I do it regardless of other people. From a surface level point of view you might think otherwise."
Where do you think he got the idea to have a live band play over the top of the skating or use a Nick Sadler track? It's fine to admit someone else has influenced you. To say he'd film and edit exactly like that anyway seems a bit disingenuous.
