Classic Alien vibes

Loved it. Great skating. Classic Alien vibes as you said. Focused on the team and selling a product. I know a lot of people will hate that but whatever at the end of the day all companies need to make money.

i found this to be an enjoyable alien workshop style audio visual product
-
I wish this was a Fatback & it was 2012.
-
Sammy is sick, smooth but with power.
This was a pleasant watch that just popped up:

random as fuck seeing a spot in durham pop up here

-

Cool edit. Hot take: I fuck with AWS 2.0. The team is sick, the shapes are nice and the graphics are tasteful.
Severely lacking Joey Guevara and Yaje tho
-
Love to see some local Columbia, SC spots in a workshop video. Shout out Lizard's Thicket. I think Alien has a pretty sick team right now and would love to see a full length with this roster.

It’s dead forever, all we have is 2.0. Alien from 2009-2012ish was my favorite team but we gotta let them go.
I hope this is a sign of them doing more with this team, it’s been so disjointed since they first came back. Would have like some Guevara footage. Is Nguyen still on? I feel like he moved to Japan and gave it up
-

Classic Alien in the sense that Frankie has Lennie Kirk style without the quirky, endearing qualities of AWS-era Lennie Kirk.

KEVIN LIEDTKE!
I was thrilled when I saw that they were introducing Kevin Liedtke and when I saw Jordan Powell I was thrilled. Liedtke is my favorite out of the Sabotage guys and feel he's been sometimes overlooked so I'm stoked that he's getting his shine and tht it's with Alien. I fuck with them heavy and the roster they have right now is so dope and I feel that they have figured out how to do their Alien style of videos with the more digital and modern look.

I loved skating that spot back when I lived closer to durham. Watching what goes down on it now is incredible. I’m sure you know who I’m referencing
-
That definitely left me wanting more. Sick video.

Greensboro too. Always excited to see someone step to that hubba. Switch 50 is fucked

Classic Alien vibes
Lol this sucked
-
As much as this was a product video, I really dug it
-
Classic Alien vibes
i dunno, i think the vibe is less “classic alien” and more “zombie alien 2.0 but still solid”
-
Did Phelps actually back any of these dudes on the new alien? A bit weird for them to use phelps on an alien workshop graphic. Maybe he used to back alien really hard back in the day or something. Just thought the Phelps graphic was odd to do, even though it looks pretty sick. Im not against the collab though. All and all its pretty sick imo.
-
They're saying "we don't have permission from Phelps". I'm saying we don't need permission from Phelps. We're allowed to slam his image into any collab because he ain't got no soul
-
Tyshawn should've bought Alien and rebranded instead of starting his own thing.
-
People have to accept that this IS alien workshop. (Not saying anyone has to like it) This teams now been on as long as the team they had before it ended. If you're missing the memory screen or timecode team should probably call this alien 6.2 or whatever instead of 2.0
-
Sammy is sick, smooth but with power.
This was a pleasant watch that just popped up:
http://youtu.be/FXUy60qB59Y
after watching this and the alien edit. I came to the conclusion that Sammy Montano has a damn good half cab flip!
-
This was cool - Alien means a lot to me. They are sort of my coming-of-age brand, in that I got obsessed with them around the same time that I thought that skulls and cartoony graphics were for little boys. Alien has a vibe, and I honestly think that vibe has survived into their 2.0 version.
And I like the team :)
-

:o
Holy fuck haha!
Now THIS is the type of hot take I come here for …
-
Loving the classic vibes, solid team.
-
Classic alien vibes? I didnt feel that at all
-

The guys at Thrasher think I’m just some dumb hick. They said that to me at the SOTY awards.

I was hyped on Jordan too . I always see emerica posting him and wondered who his board sponsor was . Dudes stylish as hell. Who even is all on the team now. Frankie, Sammy, is yaje still on? The do a lot of videos but it still doesn’t feel like a full company since they’ve come back. Not really a hot take but suciu should’ve switched over a couple years back to push it. It’s weird habitat is still around but I couldn’t even tell you who’s on either .
-
I enjoyed this for what it was for sure (probably the first time I've watched a straight up commercial twice). I think the real question for the alien fans out there is when do we get a more full length video. Imagine how crazy a full length video or even 20 minute travel video for thrasher would be with the current Alien team + Habitat + Metal. Can someone start a petition?
-
I hated the shaky ultra (shaky) hd footage that followed the 35mm photos and shit. “Alien” 2.0 is hot ass
-
9/10 backing this AWS 2.0
-
Super sick clip. That Durham spot is no joke. Thank god yaje “peaked in his first part circa 2006 or so” wasn’t in this to ruin things. Frankie spears is exactly what alien 2.0 needs
-

please tell me you’re not saying the ledge spot is no joke because it’s kinda perfect
-
frankie spears gotta be the least charismatic guy in skateboarding right now
not an understatement at all, i dare anyone to try to make it through this interview

I mixed things up, was thinking of the Greensboro spot. Yeah that Durham ledge spot is pretty amazing

Big brain alert. Now ur thinking.
Tyshawn could have also made decks with dill fucking an alien in aws art style too
-
ALIEN KING skateboards would have worked though ...
-
I really want to like the new Alien, but…
medium difficulty professional skateboarding, generic filming with abundance of thrasher collabo product shots…
Yeah, classic Alien vibes
-
They released new decks again (no thrasher colab).
Would love if they’d get more hype again.
Graphics getting better since the thrasher collaboration to me too. More 8“ and 8.125 would be cool. And if they’d make the 8“ 31.5 / 14“ wb again.
-
Enjoyed this. I’ll probably watch it again. Jordan needs more shine. I was surprised to see him. I thought he was getting krooked flow. He fits better on AWS and hopefully they do more with him. I’m a fan of AWS new old whatever. An AWS habitat metal tour video would be interesting.
