Good skateboarding, bad music imo. 60's/70's R&B > 80's/90's and not even going to speak on the mumble rap. Yet to hear a song i like in an April edit but then again April is not meant for me.
Great skating, filming, and no complaint outfits.
-
Ronnie Kessner's skating looks really good. And yes, that second song was unbearable.
Don't know why they didn't put in the mirrored line Yuto did at that curb spot. I guess since it was already on Insta, but thought this looked cool:

i liked their intro edit and i think the 4:3 HD works well, but agreed on the music. didn't cut it for me this time.
-
That ender was fucking sick
-
I watched this after that Franky Villani part. It's weird that even though both videos had talented skateboarding, Frankys part made me wanna go skate and this one had me waiting for it to end so some dude can tell me to like & subscribe to their YouTube channel and if I click the link below I can get 10% off for some shit from their affiliate.

when has that ever happened as far as april is concerned?
-
Kevin Perez is becoming one of my favorite filmers/editors. very enjoyable all the way through.
-
Since this looks heavily conscripted by Nike I’m just having this thought.
Could sb be Nike’s most profitable line? I would bet their marketing budget (throwing money to April, primitive, etc) is less than any single of the big name pro basketball players. And no kid is tearing up basketball shoes at the clip a skateboarder is. Just wondering
-
loved the music
4:3 HD is god's format
street yuto
ender was fucked up
this is turning out to be a really sick brand output wise
-
back 3 over the street gap was dope who was that

Noah Nayef.
I feel like a lot of this clip is throwaway/leftover, I know a couple of these guys are working on separate full parts.
-
bs 360 and ender were dope
hd 4:3 done right too
however the entire brand still feels so vanilla, probably because of shane oneill, and also the og logo board looks exactly like a dove soap bar to me
-
what an ender
my favourite vibeless company
-
Ha I used that Janet Jackson song in my local video part back in 94.
-
Can someone skate to some Jill Scott already?
-
That Janet Jackson song is soooo good. Classic.
-
HD 4:3 is the way to go. Yuto is the most complete skateboarder right now IMO.

theres this guy ishod wair...
-
Video was chill. I liked the first song.
A little high on the slo mo for me, the last trick in the video is the only one I wanted to see slo.
-

Really? There is nothing remotely interesting in the way he edits or films.
18 months in and I still think this company is unsure of their own image. Is Nate Jackson off already?
-
No Diego?
-
back 3 over the street gap was dope who was that
so sick but i wanna know who that hot piece of ass is in the background
-
No Diego?
oh yeah wtf
-
the last clip was indeed fucked
-
No Diego?
No sight of Diego in the last 2 April vids, and the last one was a skatepark edit.
That Noah guy is quite good.
-
I was disappointed that there was no Diego clips. Hope he's not one of those people afraid to leave the house cause of covid. Last clip he posted was 3 months ago skating with gloves and a mask on..

I doubt any sb stuff is outselling any of the Air Max variations.

Oh yeah, I forgot about running. They go fast but certainly not faster than a skate shoe seeing daily use. And those shoes have a lot more tech and a lot of advertising.
Just thinking that for the cost of some shoes and peanuts(comparatively. A dirtbag skateboarder has far less market demand than Olympic/nba/nfl athlete.) But it’s all relative. The cost of taking the entire 917 team on a trip to film an edit is nothing compared to the even the free shit they send to colleges across the country in the form of “player exclusives.”
I don’t know. That’s what I got to thinking during this video because it’s just kind of boring. The title for me is actually April skateboards presents (a video that I will never) replay (since I couldn’t wait for it to end before I closed the window.)

Nike recently came out with the next% carbon fiber running shoes. They retail for around $260 and supposedly are only really good for about 200 or 300 miles. For reference a serious marathon runner will average 70-105 miles a week. Granted these are racing shoes but I'd be surprised if the SB line was the most profitable.
-
April skateboarding is pure skateboarding with a touch of finesse. I like it a lot.
-
Shane with a skatepark line for his first tricks...
The whole team is forgettable at best. They are all very talented just so bland.
Someone mentioned how villani doesn’t fit on primitive, i disagree. He gives that team the flavor it needed to stand out.
-
would have loved to see people's names so I could tell who the fuck was who. like of course I know shane and Yuto... but I never heard of those other kids before.
-
I wonder if any of y'all ever considered that the skate parts that you enjoy are boring and bland to other people.
Anyways, Ish Cepeda and Kai Kishi look so good on a skateboard.
-
Woah the sky looked so fuckin cool during Ish Cepeda’s line starting around 1:25. Very distracting, but beautiful.
-
That first song choice was perfect. I feel like I'm seeing more and more fucked up gap to curb grinds&slides over street gaps lately.

Janet is great but the song felt out of place to me. Something about really clean footage and that specific song doesn’t mesh.
-
did anyone else laugh hysterically when shane did 3flip bsns to manny to crook nollie flip out?
i think there's a level of skill where aesthetics just stop mattering, and shane is on it
when your as good as he is you kind of have a duty to gauche as fuck tricks just to see what's possible
this isn't supposed to be a sly dig, i think he's great.
-
I don’t need a board company to necessarily have an “image” as that can limit their shelf life. I just want a cool name and a cool logo. April doesn’t do either for me, but I still wish it was Future Skateboards to pair with Primtive. That face in the A logo just makes me think of the Girl Scouts logo.
-
Their team is sooo good. Not much of an image, but the skating speaks for itself.
That ender was absolutely incredible. Can't believe someone did that...
-
The fakie heel, curb to gap, bs 3, and front blunt were sick.
No Diego?
I felt that April was a Primitive analog for people who don't talk much for some reason, like "lofi hip hop beats to relax/study to" but more in line with smooth R&B or uhh whatever mildly shoegazy stuff Shane likes.
Where is 4:26?
-
Autotune rap is fucking horrendous. I thought we knew that already?
I'll mainline any and all Yuto footage.
-
Solid on mute. If the rumor about numbers brand is true, I think they could use one of those big names on April.
-
Anyone else find April boring as hell? I like Yuto, I like Ronnie, and Kai Kishi is dope. Ish is alright. But overall the company just bores me to death. Graphics are lame, and that clothing drop was so middle of the road boring.

mullen round 3 type beat
-
Really dug the first song, then they go and put that horrible second track in...
No Diego
Ender was great...rest pretty bland by today's standards?

What I don't get is that it doesn't fit the brand or the talent, at all...like that group who like mumbleshitrap would care about this brand...

as a future fan myself this was by far one of the least mumbly songs of his haha
-
Yawn.
No names, no brand or video aesthetic, boring California spots, bad music. Good tricks, but that ain't doin it for me.
-
heavy
yuto goes!
gap to front blunt was fucked

Their image is Shane's personality summed up in a nutshell.
