PJ is the best and my favorite skater of all time... that being said, he has yet to find a modern filmer that can properly shoot and edit his footage.
I think it has to do with the fact that generally speaking, skating doesn't look good with a 16:9 aspect ratio--there's too much dead space on either side of the frame.
4:3 is a nice tight vertical crop which suits skating really well because it is a vertical activity.
I disagree, in my opinion is just a matter of being harder to make it look good, put chris mulhern to film PJ and the footage will look amazing
if you get a VX, is not that hard to make the footage look good if you know how to set it up, or any 43 camera, so bad filmers would not look terrible, in 16:9 bad filmers are exposed HARD
