Baker 4 coming in August

[no habla mango]

If Zach Allen made the vid, TK's Muta part would have fit as well. At least TK would add way more personality than while just hitting blunts and fake fighting/flexing for the camera. I liked the vid but there wasn't enough listening to apple juice or eating noodles in it.

Also just noticed Figgy did a crooks to back lip in 2019. Soty.

j-scott did some crook back lips today too. it's coming back.

Wouldn't be a leaked vid without a pornhub stream version - https://www.pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=ph5dd960848dffe

Fuck, I was one second behind you. Had to explain how skate vids leak to my wife so she'd understand blatantly being on PH.

I dug it. Definitely lots to unpack. Any new Herman/Reynolds footy is always gold.

Some takeaways:

• Zach Allen isn't doing himself any favors
• Herman blessed us
• Baca filmed
• Theotis also not doing himself any favors
• Already forgot what Riley did
• Dollin's still got it
• Elissa's still got it
• Boss still puts the capital B in the Boss

Dude are you on fucking drugs... Dollin does not still have it at all. He's a bum

[close]

I'm not, got any?

Considering his past few "parts" have consisted largely of just trying to die, I was impressed that he had some solid clips. It wasn't straight bangers like Baker 3, but I don't think anyone was expecting anything close to that. It easily exceeded my low expectations.

[close]

fair enough, I'm just disappointed that he never cleaned up. Like he could be very excellent if he did.

[close]

He's just pissfit. Sinks 10-15 or so beers a day, functions as normal. Worked with a lot of blokes like this. Not the lifestyle for me, but he is far from a bum. He's out in those streets with the team.

I used to work a construction job and my supervisor would dust an 18 pack of Budweiser every day on the job like it was nothing. Always driving with an open container and dozens of empties piled up on the floorboards. I thought he was crazy, but quickly learned that most construction workers operate this way. He's probably dead by now, though.

[pdknox]

wow dudes really in here saying the boss edited it like a supreme video to dissuade kader from leaving

[AfterBlackEnderEnder]

Just watched it, thanks Slap. Baca is the most Baker dude. Reynolds is still the f’ing best. Say what you will about Cyril, but if he would have stacked footage sans pink griptape, his part could have been a welcomed addition to the video. Cut all ties w/ Zach Allen - it’s like watching Lizard King learn to skate.

[Raccoon Manne]

Steamer and Heyl combining forces to fill in with noseslides. Whats up with all the skater fashion phases, I mean Baca looks like a homie now. I only wonder why this took 10 years to film, I thought it was going to all bangers after all the hype.

[Sarcasm]

I’m not sure how I feel about it 27YO

[JTRN3030]

first watch i did not like this video but second time around its growing on me. Ill never understand why they dropped CJ and kept Zach Allen, Cj couldve hyped this video up way more

[HugeBodBoyle]

I feel like Allen is way better than me but lacks something.

Bearded Herman is an entire mood.

[Rick_Kane]

Thought it was fine. 65 y/o

[LesbianPUNCH]

My theory is they added Zach Allen to make Spanky's comeback look incredible by contrast.

Spanky and Rowan were favorites. With all the og crew coming through my eyes got a little misty at times. the song choices and editing felt like a tender goodbye.

Nuge is always gnarly, his clips surprised me.

Overall loved it. Baca should have ended it, would have been such a rad surprise ender, maybe sprinkle in a few lackluster clips throughout so everyone who thought he was piling out would explode. Figgy shreds though.

[Stephen's Lawyer]

Imagine that Frankie Heck part that came out a few months ago in place of Zach Allen. It's already got the appropriate guest tricks by Baker riders, board graphic and grip logos, dap dap slaps, security guards, suitable music... Etc. Fuckin A.

Nuge is gnarly, what’s gnarly about watching for traffic so the homies don’t get ran over

Frankie's part was arguably better than most of the parts in the video.

That slam on the first go at the scaffold drop in was, for some reason, comically excellent. He just went to the ground like he was born to do it.

The dude even looks like Mike Maldonado. Would have been perfect!

[hmmmokay]

Loved it.  You’re fooling yourself if the hype you built up, on a personal level, was based off of the idea that this was going to be another Baker 3.  Two different eras of a continually great team.  Appreciate it for what it is, and if you don’t like the team then don’t watch the vid.

......all that being said, I agree with the disdain for Zach Allen. Not great.

[Ocelot]

I appreciate all the moretti beer throughout the video

[Ziad]

I enjoyed TFUNK and Kader's parts

[showbobs]

Well is was.. A Baker video.

Had a feeling halfway through it that we'll never be able to have Baker2G or Baker3 Baker again and I'll have to try to accept it for what it was.

Felt more like a Supreme video than a Baker video at a lot of points throughout the video.

Surprisingly liked Spankys part a lot more than I thought, and as mentioned plenty of times on here Sammy Baca had by far the best part and should have had last. I felt like I had already seen most of those tricks from Figgy spread around his last 10 parts.

Honestly a complete let down overall but that's what happens when you spend years and years hyping up a video you know will never live up to the expectation. 

[Swithflip]

Besides Baca and Figgy, Baker is of hammers.

[Murge]

I really enjoyed it.  I’m not articulate so I’m gonna try and say this the best I can. It seemed like a more mature baker. Like granted the OGs are older and the young dudes aren’t as wild but it was great seemed very positive and like in a weird way the culture of skateboarding how it should be homie as fuck and kinda silly and sketchy.

Long story short. I’m glad they did it how they did as of this is baker now instead of forcing an image of a company to look how it did 15- 20 years ago. Because That isn’t working for zero

[bigbevev]

Thee thee must be poppin too many henny bottles in the club he lookin fat

[Snacks]

I haven't rewatched Kitsch since the premier but did T-Funk and Jack O'Grady have the same ender at the same spot?

[stephop]

Why did they skate that one set of stairs so much and have two enders on it?

[munchbox]

kader's footy was great but i miss when he rode big boy boards. looks like hes riding an 8.5

[Lenny the Fatface]

Thee thee must be poppin too many henny bottles in the club he lookin fat

Fat, irresponsible with money, low impact Theotis is a complete vibe though.

[Yesterdays-pop]

That spot is called Del Toro is the new proving ground for mediocre skating

[goeatsomefriedbread]

I thought it was a great video, but it didn't bang me over tha heeeeeeead

everyone saying this wasn't good is going to feel like an idiot when baker 4 is hailed as an instant classic

[close]

It’s 100% subjective. If you feel like people are idiots  for having a different opinion than you, then you have a lot of growing up to do. Glad you enjoyed it, though!

Idk know man. I went to school with a kid who used to spork turds out of a toilet. I don't know why he enjoyed playing with the turds, but he did. Turd sporking ain't my thing, but i felt it was kind of a genuine consensus that the dudes an idiot for sporking random turds out a public restroom.

I caught that. I miss the 15 set BS flip days.

8.5 isn't a big size? That shit is fucking massive. You out here kickflipping on surf boards or some shit?

Video is aight. Not bad but not great. I lost hope after dudes got hype off playing with lady bugs and catching feathers. Definitely felt more like a Supreme video than anything else. Unnecessary zoom ins and wholesomeness (aside from the baker og tribute) did way more to hurt than help.
