Baker 4 coming in August

[disintegration]

Wow. That was beyond disappointing. 10 years for that? Ridiculous. It didn’t look or feel like a Baker video at all. And all of that close up footage of Kader was seriously fucking creepy. No opening montage?

Best trick was gap to front wallride by T Funk. Actually liked his part.

Spanky had some good stuff. One of the better parts.

Theotis is a fat materialistic douche bag. Was not impressed with his super safe, slow mediocre skating

Elisa had some cool tricks

Riley Hawk’s part was underwhelming

Rowan had some decent stuff

Sammy Baca by far had the best part And is the most Baker dude on the team

Figgy is filming the same part for eternity

Actually surprised by Dustin Dollin’s tricks

Zach Allen isn’t even good enough to be on flow. Would have been so much better if it was a new Mike White part. I really don’t understand Reynold’s reasoning for choosing certain riders and kicking off or not putting on good ones. The magick of Baker was them being a big family, and of course the hi-jinx. Now it’s just a shitshow of mediocre kids that have no apparent relation.

I’m 35 and I did not fancy this video

I totally agree with all go this.

[Burt Ward]

Kader. I like Kader. That said, I was a little underwhelmed. I think it was the song, which gave it an after-end credits vibe. Most of the video felt like this to me actually. Bad call for first part tunes.

T-Funk. This kid/man has the most obnoxious looking face. Goes in line with him supposedly being a little shit. Whether he is or not, I don't care. I do know that if I had a face like that when I was younger it would have fit my cunty persona to a tea. 20 year old me is jealous of his stupid face. LOVED this part. That ollie to wallride had me out loud exclaiming.

I did not expect a damn thing from Dustin. In my eyes, he delivered.

Edit. 40 y/o.

Didn't know much about this Jacobo fella. Those two shifty tricks tickled me up nice. Good part.

Tyson's ok.

Zach Allen. I don't really wanna add to the vitriolic hate-pile here in case he reads this thread and mine is the comment that sees him neck himself.

To the people here saying Spanly's part was no good, you're no good.

Herman had me at hop, hop, flip.

Can't not be hyped on Elissa footage.

I wanted to like Riley's part. I didn't, and it stuck out like dog's balls.

Never liked Theotis. Now I don't like him even more. Disgusting skateboarding.

All the Andrew stuff was GREAT! Not disappointed.

Baca's part felt like A PART! Who woulda thunk he had this in him. Stoked.

I mean yeah. Nuge looks like he can still skate. Who'd know these days though really.

Rowan. I love Rowan but I think I need to watch this again.

Figgy. Pretty sick. Didn't feel like a last part but I couldn't tell you should've had it. It's one of those videos.

TLDR. Solid. Music was uniformly good but mostly didn't work. Looking forward to another Ellington full part.

[disintegration]

Reynolds was the best thing about it.

Agreed. Is it just me being old and grumpy or what? I get the Pretty Sweet hate, but is it really such a crime to expect exceptionally skilled skateboarding from professional skateboarders? Back in the 90s, you’d get ostracized from the industry for cavemanning, nonmakes, and grabbing your board. But now, it feels like you get ostracized for actually being talented. Can’t believe how these videos somehow glorify subpar flat ground and non makes.

I’m 36 and I miss skateboarders trying.

[Backfootnofoot]

Baca comment:

Never been a fan but this was my fave part of his. That being said, is this dude on meth? I barely recognized him. I thought it was some weird Andy Roy backlog.

Well said.
What annoys the shit out of me if this had 0 Baker feeling. I wasn't expecting Baker 3 encore but sure I didn't wanted a Supreme rip-off.
Ps: Please give Zach the boot.

[Stringer Bell]

So many minutes, such little character

[Swithflip]

Lets be honest, Tk Muta part is better than Kader and Zach parts.

I was really hyped for a new Jacopo part, but seemed he didnt take it serious enough.

Baca had the best part so far.

[Classy Durag]

I might watch again for Baca part and to see Reynolds skate tranny.

[Arto!Arto!WakeUp!]

i've just seen kader's part posted indvidually on yt. was so underwhelmed i assumed it was throwaway or an edit in progress someone had mislabeled for views - but from what you guys are saying sounds like it was the real thing...

[radcunt]

Here's my cool review guys sorry about the wait everyone relax.

I enjoyed the Kader kid stuff, but then the 'adult reveal' was corny as shit and Urgh, the cut back to him as a kid...  We get it, we know about time, this ain't the fucken wonder years.

This Edward Furlong cunt skating to Heart Attack Man is goin for it, even though he looks like a pack of Supreme smokes.

Andrew must like Supreme videos

Dollin is embarrassing, drinking beers isn't a trick & the song is dogpiss

ok i'm bored.

Ras Trent is skating to KRS which is nice for me I guess. Lol slo mo joint shot, I hate it.

Everyones funky handshakes are cute

This Spanky guys like a Heath Kirchart cover band that does ska versions of all his tricks

I gotta go to bed.

[Arto!Arto!WakeUp!]

H

ouch

[fastlane]

Yeesh...not great at all...It was so messy, people having tricks all over each others parts? Did the title for T-FUnks part come up half way through his part? It just felt hard to follow. And where were the "hijinks"? Reynold's instagram clips were better than that what was he thinking? I'm sorry, that sucked.  Baker 3 was a hard act to follow but it didn't even seem like anyone tried that hard...So much was building up to that video for many years, where do they go from here?

[jorge]

This confirmed my feeling that Kader is overrated and that Rowan is indeed far and away the best non OG guy on.  The surprises for me were Baca and that I actually enjoyed T-Funk, the ollie to frontside wallride was ridiculous.  Not a bad video but definitely not in a league with Baker 2 or 3.

[Dumbledore]

link me plz I'll give u sucky

[ziggy]

Someone tell me how Riley is still on but Cyril got kicked off

[Chatbot]

Was there any T Funk el toro clip?

[honey island]

is felix soto's angle of herman's nollie inward heel the worst ever filming of a trick in skateboarding history? it's gotta be up there.






also literally all the sf footage was filmed 2 weeks ago

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

Someone tell me how Riley is still on but Cyril got kicked off

wait what? Riley has skills, maybe he’s not my fav type of skater but he’s certainly good at what he does.

Also, while I liked Herman’s part he belongs in Emericas, not vans

[WPG]

To people saying instant classic help me out. I want to like this video because I love Baker... but the footage is subpar. Compare it to Encore that they only worked on for a year and it’s not even close skating wise

It's so bad you almost really wouldn't use it. Saved by the homie cam.

Thanks for putting in the effort to get that screengrab and pointing that out... you're 100% correct. First time I saw that angle in the video I was like WTF was that? Did the video glitch? When I watched it the second time I paused it and went frame by frame wondering why they even put that shot in the video at all.... Ever see the interview with Beagle where Andrew made him reshoot a nollie BS 180 down Wilshire 15 because Beagle jerked the camera up slightly on the make? So Andrew Reynolds completely forgot what skate footage is supposed to look like now? What is happening?

[Ankle_Lift]

It just felt hard to follow.

You had a hard time following a skate video?

All I’m reading in this thread:

If you just disregard the skating it's right up there with recent videos.
