Who edited the video? If I'm not mistaken Beagle, Reynolds and Dollin did in other projects, but I refuse to believe they were the ones that jumped the Fat Bill bandwagon with those zoom ins and unnecessary slow mos. That's the main problem with the video and why it doesn't feel so much like a Baker video, not the lack of hijinks. Oh and the lack of intro and outro too.

The skating was great though, the soundtrack too.

The winners were Rowan (can't think of a most gracious motherfucker on a board) and Baca, that shove it out of the noselide caught me of guard. He should have got the ender and not Figgy as everyone expected him or Kader to get it, it would have been such a cool surprise.

Unnecessary slo mos are the foundation of the Baker brand.  Check Baker Bootlef or 2G when J Strickland was making their videos. 

The Fat Bill looking footage was more than likely shot by Fat Bill.  You don’t control that shit in the edit

All the long lense SF footage was shot by Felix Soto who is employed by Baker. So they definitely have control of how they wanted the footage to look.

KB at the premiere. Baked.

more surprising than zach allens part

[Paul Cicero]

Finally watched it. I see where everyone is coming from with the hate, having said that, I really liked it.
T-Funk is the shit!

[HugeBodBoyle]

I keep going back to Spanly's part and Reynolds' part. That fucking song (Big Ship) and the smile that Ellington flashes just really gets to the core of where I am in this whole thing right now.

Rewatched it a few times now, I’ve been enjoying skipping kader and starting with tfunk. For some reason I really like the song in dustins part.
I’m really enjoying the video with the exception of like two or three parts, and have really been enjoying the legacy people’s tricks. Was so stoked on elissa I ordered that gnarhunter/antihero hoodie she’s wearing in the beginning of her part

[ok boomer]

Upon third viewing, I enjoy T-Funk, Elissa, Herman & Baca's parts the most.

I especially liked seeing that Carhartt vest chilling.

there's a venn diagram in with Silas, Bledsoe, and Herman in it (appearance-wise).  Not sure who fits in which part

Couldn't help but notice how much Herman looked like new Zero guy Adam Arunski in this clip.

Did anyone do a buttload of tail drop kickflips after baker 3 came out?

I remember right after that video I started doing them off any drop thing I could find. Most of the time it wouldn't even land into an incline, so I just land and stand there stationary. I used to just find big straight drops to do it off and just not go anywhere after. Just land, feel sort of cool, then eventually push away.

Spanky part was good
Baca and Figgy had best parts
Tfunk and Kader were average at best
Editing was not good, you can't defend it. They can at least put a little more effort into the video. It just seemed like a lot of people in the video didn't take it seriously. They had so much time to film and it seemed like the video was filmed in the past year.
Also can someone explain to me what happened to Cyril, Donta and Dee Ostrander

Yes, but I think that was a side effect of being 14. Tail drop kickflips where the style at the time

I have on good authority Baca won SOTY from Dirt Backyards & Bench Press Equipment Quarterly

Long Version:

Zhuangzi's wife died. When Huizu went to convey his condolences, he found Zhuangzi sitting with his legs sprawled out, pounding on a tub and singing. "You lived with her, she brought up your children and grew old," said Huizu. "It should be enough simply not to weep at her death. But pounding on a tub and singing - this is going too far, isn't it?"

Zhuangzi said, "You're wrong. When she first died, do you think I didn't grieve like anyone else? But I looked back to her beginning and the time before she was born. Not only the time before she was born, but the time before she had a body. Not only the time before she had a body, but the time before she had a spirit. In the midst of the jumble of wonder and mystery a change took place and she had a spirit. Another change and she had a body. Another change and she was born. Now there's been another change and she's dead. It's just like the progression of the four seasons, spring, summer, fall, winter.

Short Version:

We all die.  If we're lucky, we age and die.  Reynolds rolls up to the Hollywood 16.  Then it's Beagle's dog.  Whoomp. There it is.

This got buried awhile back but I love this take

You gotta get your fucking head checked if you thought T-Funk’s part was average at best...

What the fuck are you talking about? Did you not watch his part?

Would very much like to see this.

T-Funk's arms are easy to make fun of but he does crazy enough shit to warrant them. That gap to wallride to bomb through the movie set was enough alone to get me hyped to skate. If his part was just that and the noseblunt drop in, I would still think it was one of the highlights of the vid.

glad to know I wasn't alone.

[ChuckRamone]

I saw footage on IG of spanky doing a hurricane grind on the garfield rail and then a frontside kickflip down the second set. how come they didn't use that footage?

Reynolds interview on Thrasher makes it seem like they weren't producing enough.

"Eventually if they’re doing less work and getting the same as everybody else you would start to think like, Okay, well, I guess that’s just what I can do. It’s just bad for everything. It doesn’t send a message of, like, to be on this team you have to work hard and skate hard, be cool with everybody, a lot of things go into it."

The level of commitment that Baca displays towards  his Cholo-Cosplay, is simply incredible homie. It’s all in the details homie. He’s repping for the little homies, homie.

I'm sure keeping Nuge on is sending a great message to the rest of the team.

so is it coming in August or what ??

Every trick in Dollins Baker 3 part is better than Baker 4

I'd like to take the opportunity to post this early Dollin part from Australian vid Play.

From around the same time as Baker 2g. Guess it must of been about 2000-01. Crazy to think it's close to 20 years ago

Seems like it has a bunch of Baker 2G and even some Transworld part tricks in it. 

[hateboard]

dollin love, Play was a legit vid, Tim Dunn realised the americans would never see it so he stole songs / editing style and made one of the best Australian skate videos ever.
Its like baker 2bootleg

[hateboard]

double post, it makes me sad to see dustin at the end of his road, i remember grommet skating the hordern pavillion as a baby and thinking 'that is skateboarding' now hes a washed up old man (me too) and its sad. He will forever be a young little grommet in my eyes. Nothing fucks you harder than time.
