Cannot belive Funa did the front crook first try. Queen of the pinch.
-
Garcia has had the skill and style but recently fully put it together
Soty level tricks/style
-
he has a few clips but not quite a full part
vinicius trick on the arto up ledge spot was sick
yokito (i think?) dude's ollie up the bank thing to kickflip was up there with my favorite kickflips of all time
-
Lots of crazy tricks in there. The 2nd angle of Madars crook pop over was insane. Jaako's quick feet is always fun to watch. The quick nollie up the curb after the kickflip bs tail was great.
-
Is there a donny barley part?
-
i'm at work, can someone please tell me if i have a brandon westgate part to look forward to when i get home?
Skip to 3:30 for a minute of Westgate footage
-
Is there a donny barley part?
No, there is one trick
-
A lot of cool stuff.
Funa always had a good heelflip too but never did one down anything until now.
Madars crook up and drop on was sick the way he walked up that ledge too
Loy front board daewon to front board fukn sick
Garcia so much interesting stuff. Pop n push crooked (claiming I invented that shit in 99 lol)
Thanks to all their riders is kinda chat tho seeing as they've just dropped their entire Aus team out of nowhere twice.
-
no one is as light footed as jaakko its wild
-
Vitoria might be my new favorite female rider. She rips with immaculate style
-
lol abd song from the first gx full length
-
can someone remind me why we're supposed to not like element? that was sick and they sponsor a bunch of pretty dope people. feel like their past couple vids have been pretty good too?
-
mostly scrubbed this but Nick had some good footage at the end.
weren't people just saying he quit?
Element as a Euro brand is crazy, Jart vibes
-

element has been kinda cool for a little minute now. people that dont recognize this are just behind the times

I wouldn’t say cool, but it’s not the worst thing.

-
this was crazy good... so many tricks made me say what the fuck! the ender from garcia just had me laughing, skating is ridiculous.
-
Was that Jaako who did the sw heel fs crook into the steep bank? That shit was historical
-
18:03 is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time
-
This was very, very sick. Jaako and Garcia shut it down for me. Element has some dope female rippers too, and mark appleyard flipping into grinds in 2022 brings me joy

Been like this for a while. Amazing videos with some great skateboarding. I always make sure to watch new element videos. Great editing. Vitoria was sick. The dude that ollied over that doorway was pretty insane. Lots of good skateboarding and interesting to notice same spots the GX fellas hit up.
Element is still wack and has done lots of goofy shit and bummed out some dudes to the post where they’ve quit and dear lord in the year 2022 almost 2023 they’re still raking in cash mostly from soft goods. Hard to believe people are still buying element gear thansk to viva la bam some 20 years later but shit some people never stopped going to their local zoomeez since jackass and buying new element clothes and some of these people have children. Creatures of habit eh.
-
Expected this to be terrible after that long intro, but was pleasantly surprised. Sick video.
-
Sick Element vid. Written with zero sarcasm.
Lotta names i don't recognize but all quality.
Backpack ollie at 8:00 deserves a mention.

filmed grayson a couple times in atlanta. glad he's gettin some shine from element
-
Nick Garcia was really good.
Love to see a full part from him.
Lots of good skaters on Element.
The bark interludes were corny.
-
Does Monster make pants? ;D
-

vinicius trick on the arto up ledge spot was sick
yokito (i think?) dude's ollie up the bank thing to kickflip was up there with my favorite kickflips of all time
i still need to know the answer to "what has 7 arms and sucks" from a random post like a month ago
-
So much good shit in that. Very good.
-
18:03 is one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time
dude for real, i had to rewind that few times. i instantly thought “yeah that’s #1 on quartersnacks next list”. nick garcia won’t get it but, is definitely a heavy contender for soty. his skating has just gotten better & better. was really happy to see some appleyard in there, especially a classic 360 flip. video was sick.
-
Does Apples have a full part?
-
Does Apples have a full part?
Haven't dug in the video, but if Westgate got 60 seconds and Barley got 1 trick, don't count on Apples delivering anything.
Edit: OK that video shut me up, still got his signature Nollie Flip Crooked Grind and 360 flip, no complaints
-
Does Apples have a full part?
He had like 3 clips I think.
-
This was insane, one of the better videos I’ve seen this year for sure. Very rewatchable before a sesh imo.
-

What happened to Miner and Element?
-
eetu is sick
-
https://youtu.be/oEQOce-Idao
What happened to Miner and Element?
He was only employed for Peace.
-
Damn, that was a really, really good video.
I thought it was kinda cool that they included everyone who has ever rode for Element in the credits.
-
Nick fcking Garcia rips.
-
everyone in this rips, will watch this a lot. eu never seems to disappoint
-
Element releasing a sleeper hit and gaining some a iota of industry relevance - color me pleasantly surprised.
Edit: Vitoria skating Blubba and Max Palmer's fountain were excellent, proper street tricks and style
-

Element has always had a good team and they seem to have weathered their post-peace exodus pretty well. That said,

what in the fuck did I just watch?? who was that with the drumming Ted speech??
why does Donny Barley only have one trick in this, when Element just gave him a capsule collection? (and a pretty rad one at that, I happily grabbed a tshirt and deck)
why would Element be a euro brand?
whatever happened to Bill Pepper?
questions, questions, so many questions....
-
video was awesome
but
in the very end there is a list where they thank everyone who has ridden for element over the years and jarne verbruggen is on there. i thought that was weird/wack/shouldnt have happened.
-
TK was on the list too.
-
featherlight 2023
-
Vitoria might be my new favorite female rider. She rips with immaculate style
YES! And she keeps progressing super fast, very inspiring to watch
-
Such a pleasant surprise. Kudos to whoever at element is responsible for righting that ship.

-

Yeah it was
-
Loved everything here. Brandon and Mark delivered. Vinicius and Vitoria had some very clean tricks. Jaako never disappoints.
Does anyone know the name of that last song? Around 19:32
-
most slept on team. WOW some really good stuff. filming was very good as well. Edit. Great presentation.
skating was tops
-
Better on 2nd rewatch - noticed Element-ism like the zoom in on trees, water bodies, trash and wind. Didn't expect much from Appleyard but he's still 360 flip nosesliding and nollie flip crook-ing rails.
Losing Nyjah may have been the best thing to have happened to Element, yeah they lost their cash cow but the team can finally step out of his shadow.
-

Johnny Schillereff leaving and starting heart supply was also a good thing. Makes Element look like Passport in comparison.
I've noticed a trend of mall-core in recent vids. Metal militia, puffy shoes, jorts, loud colors, emo music, etc amongst young people. Element is prime to exploit that if they lean into that stuff. This video however, seems to point towards them going in a more toned down tasteful direction. Will be interesting to see what they do as a company.
-
Pleasant surprise, good to see Nick Garcia to continue to rip and his end is absolutely fucked. That being said having this kid Ettu who looks and skates a bit like him prior was confusing. Always wishing for more Westgate clips but it is what it is. Strange team but look like they enjoy traveling and skating together.

questions, questions, so many questions....
Because they've fucked on the US side for 20 years, when they've been pretty spot on with their team and videos since then. Of course, the product is still meh...
But since Rise Up, i've thought that euro Element was way sicker than the US one. I think they finally realized that too and gave à more 'euro vibe' to the company as a whole ( the team, the filming locations, people editing...)
-
Video is excellent, really cool spots throughout. Team is really good, though I'm not really familiar with many of them. Jaakko goes bonkers of course. Eetu is so dope. Leon and Greyson had a surprisingly good part. Gabriels manual into that crazy bank with a drop was cool. Nick almost died there in the credits. Really like Vitoria. Victor Cascarigny's front board 270 bonk thing at 13:48 was a standout. Vinicius is fucked, love his skating, the gap he ollies on the glass building was wild. Nick Garcia got after it! His ender was unreal. Liked Barney Page's trick into that hubba better tho.

Appleyard still got it! So good to still see him out there doing top notch maneuvers!
-
a buddy of mine isnt a serial skate video watcher so im always sending him just the must see clips from stuff that comes out and on my second watch of this i just gave up and told him to watch the whole thing cuz i was sending him an obnoxious amount of timestamped youtube links.
cant wait for jaakko's magnum opus part, guy is a unicorn in skating
-
great watch. more or less no stunts, just great tasteful and creative skateboarding and a very diverse team
-
That was actually really sick. Too many dope clips to list.
-
Finally saw it. Great vid. Had some Greg Hunt vibes with the b-rolls. Kind of crazy to see Westgate sort of get overshadowed by the rest of the team when he was the one who used to do that.

Let's see:
Dumped Jeremy Wray and Kenny Hughes (man, Kenny had a dope style)
Made really disparate videos in the 00's that looked like footage dumps (minus Brent Atchley in Elementality, of course)
Had terrible graphics for the longest time
Pseudo-hippy bullshit
Turned into a Bam-brand
Was identity-less for 5(?) years after the Bam stuff hit a wall
I like the new team, and I love seeing Apple's, they just suffered from corporate-ownership for so long I'm actually amazed they are still around.
This video was amazing. Does Jaako have a magnus opus part to view? Honestly no clue what he'll whip up next.
Can't believe that front crook.
-
Excellent video, as everyone said. Jaako and Nick are the best at what they do, Vinicius Santos is an absolute beast, Eetu kills it, Madars still has incredible style, and the girls rip. Front Crook was mind-boggling.
-
If, like me, you think you remember seeing Vinicius somewhere before... it's this clip
https://www.instagram.com/p/CY6wfJJqr3i/?hl=en

Damn, that was a really, really good video.

They didnt include all. I wasnt mentioned, and some other of my past teammates wasnt either. Two from my time did got mention though. Would have been a long list if they actually mentioned all ;D
-
Speaking of jaakko, I have this memory of him doing crazy natas spin variations on this weird spot with red? spheres. I dunno if I’m misremembering but if anyone knows what I’m talking about send me a link I can’t find those clips anywhere. However in my search I watched a bunch of his old parts. Incredible, every one.
-
what a nice video, Vittoria is sick. Everyone on the team is so good but not in a boring way.
Nick Garcia ender is wild

OK I see what you mean. I guess it shows how much Europe's image in the skating scene has changed in the last 20 years. in a good way!

I rocked element boards a lot when Natas was there, then they went to shit, can I like them again?

that was proper.

This shows why Element Europe has been on their shit for quite some time.

I think you're ready to love again, provided they change up their graphics
-
I have an Element logo ring in some box that my best friend gifted me some 20 years ago. I might just start wearing that bad boy again after watching this. Apples'
3 4 clips were dope as fuck.
-
Crap, that was so good.
I love:
Funa’s stance on the front board at Hollywood.
Gabriel Fortunato and Eetu. Both really surprised me.
Nick Garcia. Been a longtime fan and I’ve hoped he could get out from under Element’s shadow, but he’s skating better than ever.
Ethan Loy. He’s got a great frontside nosegrind and stance on tricks, and his roller coaster ride front board was fucking wild.
Jaako! He’s in the realm of skaters where no trick or combination is impossible, but in a way where I want to see it and not simply doze off.
I dunno if Element’s many sins are more forgivable now than ever, but they knocked it outta the park and I hope the skaters they sponsor are treated well and supported. Killin it, sheesh.

Jarne, Madars, Phil Sweijen...
And even the previous euro team : Mickael Macrodt, Jo Lorenz, etc.
-
would have really preferred to see everyones' tricks in their actual part together and not spread into other sections as much. I see that type of editing appropriate for a tour video but not something like this? But my opinion means nothing.
-
This was a really well done video. Made me consider buying a board.
Love the sprinkled clips. Love that everyone had about the same amount of footage (except it seemed a limited few which was cool!). Loved Maria’s footage and that frontside crook by the person whom I forgets name (sorry! I’m drunk as I type this).
I love that Nick Garcia is the veteran on the team. That dude is becoming one of my fav skaters for me. Element got a lot more cool once Nyah and Evan left (no offense to Evan).
@scab hahaha. Amazing.
Came back to modify this post. I feel like part of the success of this video, was the editing. They have a lot of people in this feature, and they made it twenty minutes by using everyone’s best/most interesting clips. You’d think, aren’t all videos edited like this, but this was really well executed.
-

If, like me, you think you remember seeing Vinicius somewhere before... it's this clip
https://www.instagram.com/p/CY6wfJJqr3i/?hl=en
Or from slides & grinds where he was on his way to become a slap villain because he had the audacity to do multiple slappy noseslides.
Also had some nice stuff in the first ESP video. Dont know what it is but there is something about his style I really enjoy watching.
-
That was great. To the north American pals element is huge over here in France with non skaters or dude who quit skating in highschool or something. I see more element shirts/hoodies than any other brand at work and in town. Could be a mountain thing thou. The element shop in Lyon is always busy. Just hope the team gets paid.

Vinicius has been in the scene for a while now, he had the first part in ESP and was very good.
And the first line of his small part in this video received lots of love in Instagram at the time (starts 2:30, must-see):
