Adam's part was sick and Jonno was rad too but that double GnR ender - especially the second part - was too much. I swear at least one of my high school dances ended on the same two songs.

This was put out by Jamie Thomas, right?  Same Jamie Thomas known for having impossibly high standards for his videos?  Just want to make sure that this video containing tons of weak/illegal tricks, laughably sketchy landings, and absolutely butchered filming, was indeed put out by that same Jamie Thomas.

Jamie Thomas, the same guy who knocked back 3 minutes of Dennis Durrant footage because it wasn't Black Box standard is giving his filmer who does circus tricks a part in a full length.

Is Jamie trolling?

I remember reading somewhere that Kirchart tried to skate to that part of November Rain but couldn’t get the rights. Can’t remember which video it was.

I guess if you’re going to use a song that Kirchart wanted you have to skate like Kanaan.

I think @Francis Xavier was at the premier. If you actually did attend Francis, was the dog there? If so, did it bark it all or get lots of love after the premier?

it was for sight unseen. he then tried to use pink floyd who also wouldn’t give the rights so, moody blues was chosen which i definitely think worked out in his favor.

Oh there were a few dogs there and one (2?) on stage. It was a good doggy that barked at the hammers and bangers, solid mascot for Zero

Nothing says a good time like an intro filled with slams - the one that Reggie took at 1:30 looks bad, knees aren't supposed to absorb impact that way.

Edit: 1st shared part with Reggie, Gustavo and Brandon was pretty nuts

The video was sick. Jamie kept it with the classic Zero formula even using a Creedence song and shit. Way better than Damn it All. The only thing I thought was a bit excessive was all the slams, I know it's part of the formula but he could have cut them down a bit.

Pretty good, old Zero vibes. 19 minutes in got very bored though and skimmed through the rest of it, couldn't take the music from then on out either. As much as I liked the old Zero stuff back in the day, this type of footage doesn't get me in the mood for skating anymore.

video was ok, i guess. but i don't know … all this "macho-esque" self destruction is getting extremely stale (probably has gotten stale years ago). Nothing wrong with gnarly skating and slams, but the way Zero does it, makes me really sleepy. It is all way too serious....

At least it was not all just handrails and stairs

At least the early grab guy did something different, otherwise it would be really stale. But I didn't finished the video. Also the slams where too much for me. I'm not getting hyped by it anymore.

Reggie, Burly and Wimer were sick.

Video confirmed I know nothing about Zero anymore, but could tell it was a Zero video. Lots of Dying to Live throwback tricks/spots. Appreciated the old guard CCR montage.

Burleigh had Big John/AVE vibes. He won't stay long.

I loved it and want to buy a zero tee because I am all about nostalgia

by the end the slams were like watching Am Dram or something it was so over the top but in a really good way. If anyone but Jamie edited it I would say it was a perfect satire of the 2000's and layered with irony...

Forrest's nollie back 3 heel was sick.
loved the CCR montage.
Did we really need pretty much a whole song's worth of bails? Incredibly boring.
Kanaan killed it too but gahdamn that part was corny (editing/song)

The thing about the Zero team is since they’re probably not getting paid you know they’re just out here doing it because they want to. Skating’s been sanitized over the last decade+ Where everything seems perfect that seeing so many slams was refreshing.

Never seen a Zero video I didn’t like. Song choice was spot on, even gave us what we expect with the CCR song. Haven’t heard a Dead Moon song in a minute.

Respect to dude who did nothing but plants and early grabs. Not that I liked it but just that he did a whole part of those in 2021 is wild.

Adam deserves a board by now.

Post by: funeral_tuxedo on November 21, 2021, 11:57:27 AM
I liked it a lot. I think the last part could've been done in full slow motion with just one GnR song, but even still it was all cool to watch. Seeing Forrest Edwards in the mix was a fun bonus and Chris Wimer always stands out. The Dead Moon intro song fit well.

I loved it. I love every zero video though. It's cool that zero dudes put their body on the line for no other reason than they like getting gnarly. Also cool of Jamie to make a video showcasing all the ams. Brandon and Kanaan had the best parts obviously. Brandon's boardslide down the hubba and long ass rail were nuts. Would've been cool if he landed the noseblunt down the Walnut rail. Can't wait for their next video with all the pros. Chris Wimer should be turning pro when his emerica part comes out and will probably end the next video.

You know those bands that make like 3-4 really good albums and then still go on to make 6 more albums and they're not necessarily bad, but they're definitely not good? Like the band itself almost turns into some sort of tribute band of itself trying it's hardest to write songs and albums that sound like themselves? And based on that fact alone the albums are actually pretty terrible because they're such a watered down version of what they once did? You guys all know bands like that.

And based on that fact alone the albums are actually pretty terrible because they're such a watered down version of what they once did? You guys all know bands like that.

Unfortunately, it seems that bands can only escape this fate if it comes to a tragic end before.

You know those bands that make like 3-4 really good albums and then still go on to make 6 more albums and they're not necessarily bad, but they're definitely not good? Like the band itself almost turns into some sort of tribute band of itself trying it's hardest to write songs and albums that sound like themselves?

Skate brands are kinda like comedy tv shows. Often awkward first season, figure out what works and what doesn't in season two, peak season three. Then New cast and new writers trying to recreate what they had and only newbies or die hard fans keep watching.
Then there's brands like Santa Cruz that's like SNL. It just goes on forever constantly changing cast and nobody really ever watched it.

Skating in white overalls to the Big Little Lies song, eh?

'Jamie Thomas's Big Little Lies' would've been such a better video name.
