 Noticed that too . Not quite sure if it’s the same guy but I seen a dude like that rocking the sci do fantasy hat a few years back while recycling. I thought he was bum who just came across the hat and I was trying to buy it off him but he dissappeared.

Way better filming quality from what I remember of the first one which is good.

Loved Jerry, Spanky and Rowan.

McCrank's tricks were mental. He's kind of dogged us all by not filming more seriously over the years. Still just as good as ever.

I hate that res head kid (Aidan?). Worst trick selection and style. Bummed they paired him with Rowan.

Imagine working for Emerica and thinking we should fire Jerry but keep Figgy and Colin and whoever else is on the team. Idiots!!

Rowan is just getting started. Can't wait for his Baker 4 part
Jorts
Anklets
Rat tails
Sling shots
Toe rings

spanky's re-emergence has to be one of skating's best timelines the last half decade, dude looks reinvigorated and happy

some great jerry footage too, real shame there's never gonna be a chocolate part from him

It is a sin that Jerry is sponsor less...he's so good and by far had the best shit in the video. Gino's no-comply was stand-out. I'm kind sick of seeing Rowan honestly but Aiden is growing on me.

alexis ross is a g, does all the design work for boys of summer. did some stuff from RCVA, and has his own company called sports ltd.

yeah how dare they put him in a section with his closest friends who he skates with on a daily basis.

Stacy putting Guy, Rudy, Paulo and Gabriel together in that part so long ago was such a good idea.

This trick and McCrank’s were the two standouts for me.  I liked this a lot, but not quite as much as he first for some reason.

That's Alexis Ross, he does all of the artwork for Boys of Summer. Worked with RVCA and Supreme in the past as well.

EDIT: mountain beat me to it, but yeah he does all the graphics

I was wondering why they liked hanging out with their accountant so much.  Thanks for the info.

Alex is sick. I did production assistant work in LA for a bit, and he was the art director for a commercial I was on once. I was too nervous to fan out on him while working but emailed him a few days later and told him I was a big fan and I'd love to work with him again.
Prob weirded him out cuz I never got a response.

I get that they're mates and it makes sense for them to share. What I'm getting at is say you really liked Reynolds and hated Shane Heyl. Whilst they're obviously good friends, you probably don't want to see them share a part?

The groupings seemed a bit more random than last time. In the first Boys of Summer it really seemed they put cliques together, such as Baker Boys, Rick/Mike/Scott Johnston, Koston/Cory/BA/Scuba, Dill/Ave/Gino, etc. This one didn't seem as cohesive. Not that it was a bad thing. It was a bit surprising for example to see McCrank with Cyrus and AO, although, I get why it was edited that way (a decent amount of Van footage in AO's part) or how Carroll footage was with Reynolds and the Jeffersons. They also put people's footage throughout the video this time, instead of in one of the edits.

I'd get that if it wasn't treated as a homie video. I mean, I'm not a huge fan of Aidan's skating, but I also just primarily watched a part of the Jefferson's skating at about 2 miles an hour with Mike Carroll and Reynolds footage put in.

i mean i wouldn't care, if this was the format the video was in. it really shouldn't matter.

my favourite tricks -

mccranks
cody's pop shove was so sick! that spot is so hard to skate
santi's fs shove at the same spot. what the hell.
jerry's noseslide transfer over

Spankys insta posts lately have been on point too. Solid skating and great trick selection. I rewatched baker has a deathwish recently and realized it’s kind of a precursor to the whole wallie grind trend now with him mostly skating weird barriers and stuff.
