Favorite clip
Right in front of that ledge are the cheatiest slappy curbs I've ever seen. They're like a 50 degree angle and you can just carve on to them.

Loved seeing my neighborhood skated. I have looked at that weird concrete wave that Ryan Lee gets the ride on grind on for years. I believe it has a pole in front of it now so that clip may be kinda old.

Mason's skating is as good as it gets. Fast and raw with a well thought out trick selection. He's one of the easiest skaters to watch.

Jake looked like he wanted to puke when he saw the lens.

Noooooo. Those death lenses are regularly $8,000-$15,000. It cracked me up when people were like "Do you have another one?!?!"

This brings up an interesting convo. I am a filmer/photographer, if its just me shooting independently its me paying for the damage. If I'm shooting for a big company sometimes they have insurance on gear so the insurance pays for damage.

I was just recently shooting some surfing for fun and my buddy fell and smashed into my lens port and it instantly flooded the housing with saltwater and roasted the camera/lens. I footed the bill, which is personally what I expect to do if there's a catastrophe like that. If you're skating and a the board shoots out and scratches the lens I don't think the skater should feel bad. I should've turned the camera out of the way quicker. It's part of the game, I'm the one that's in your way.

I could not imagine leaving Krooked or Anti Hero for FA. But I would leave Real. Even worse graphics than FA and even with being amazing- Mason still essentially competes with Ishod, Kyle Walker etc to stand out on that team. On FA he could get full creative control to make homie videos with Jake, Curren, and Louie all day long and would immediately be the best or 2nd best on the team after Louie. He also wouldn’t have to sport the Real Oval with like some flamingos being abducted by alien flying saucers and butterfly graphics with those shitty DLX shapes and wbs that only short fat ppl like the Gonz like.

I know nothing about camera gear.. but how much better does a 10k lens look than say, a 2-4k lens?  I get why they’d give Jake a hard time about it, but it seems like a 50/50 responsibility split in my eyes.  Anyway, dope edit.  Incredible juxtaposition between this and the Hardies in the Cayman Islands edit yesterday lol.

To the average viewer, not that much better. It's a bit more complicated than that though. For the Panasonic camcorders most filmers use there isn't really anything that exists between the $10k Century lens (which also isn't even produced anymore) and the $200 Opteka (which looks quite bad IMO).

Damn they really gong for 10g's now? I know Jordan Trahan got one for about 3 but it has a pretty big scratch on it. You can just replace the front elements on them, but idk if Century still makes those and when I tried to get in touch with them a few years ago it was impossible. I could also see the elements being mad marked up, I think those 2 dudes that sell VX stuff on instagram just buy all of centuries stock of things when they come out and jack up the price cuz no one else can get them.

that moon shaped pool cover has a similar vibe to some boards that isle put out.

king of limbs is maybe polarish.

footage dump - curren and jake skating skate mental boards.

would not be surprised if one them dropped a big part before the end of the year.

how long until mason is on FA?
[close]
imagine leaving Deluxe for FA
[close]
I could not imagine leaving Krooked or Anti Hero for FA. But I would leave Real. Even worse graphics than FA and even with being amazing- Mason still essentially competes with Ishod, Kyle Walker etc to stand out on that team. On FA he could get full creative control to make homie videos with Jake, Curren, and Louie all day long and would immediately be the best or 2nd best on the team after Louie. He also wouldn’t have to sport the Real Oval with like some flamingos being abducted by alien flying saucers and butterfly graphics with those shitty DLX shapes and wbs that only short fat ppl like the Gonz like.

FA is unbelievably try-hard and corny. It doesn’t matter at all if Real doesn’t have great graphics. Their team is absolutely stacked and productive. Real’s image is completely secondary to actual skating.

The actual issue is that DLX has been around for ~30 years and controls the entire skateboard industry while FA exists at the whim of Jason Dill.

Also-Jim/Tommy/Julien all qualify for sainthood in skating.  If they let you ride for them, you say yes and that's it.

Hard agree.

Not gonna lie, when the Hawaii footage came up and started pumping that Patrick Cowley track while showing shirtless Mason in the water, I thought at least one of the quintet was gonna take their cock out at any moment.

I thought he was on hockey or fa affiliated? I remember talk about it when that Aaron Harrington bunt episode came out or something with him talking about meeting Shane and getting him on converse or something? I might be confusing a name here but I swore he was on one of the fa brands.

Either way agreed. I could see him on limo or weirdly enough frog . I feel like him and Nick michel are neat match.

Yeah, Shane Farber's flow status is one of the great mysteries of this era of skateboarding. It's absolutely baffling why Hockey hasn't put him officially on by now. The Limo or Frog suggestions also make sense, but it seems like he's pretty tight with Louie and Ryan Lee, so you'd think it'd all be sorted by now.
