[shit_for_brains]

Wow I don't like it at all

[johnes]

Yutos nollie 270 slideslide was sick. Ish had a couple tricks I liked.
Didn’t really care for it overall tho. Just finished watching it and I’m not having the i need to go skate right now feelings.
Shane had what like 6 tricks? I like his light colored jeans.

[Ocelot]

quite vanilla


thinking yuto deserves better than this

[Little Debbie]

pretty straightforward promo. great skating, no b-roll or filler. I agree though, very vanilla but family friendly.
definitely a new standard in HD 4:3. although i'm such a snob, the FS7 colors can look a little iPhone-y at times. nothing beats the warm feel of HVX/HPX.

[Jordan Wiens]

they went full person on some of those tricks, and i like it.

[midnightsnack]

No Tommy Fynn??

[Madam, I'm Adam]

Why was that one fakie 5-0 in slow motion?

I don't know, I was expecting more. There were a few tricks I liked, Shane's bigspin front nose on the rail and Kai's nollie shove nosegrind 180.

[Watson]

Well I'll give it up to them that they managed to make a video that exemplifies the brand perfectly. Boring, bland, and forgettable.

This.

[offkilter]

rough music selection, they should just let James James handle the videos.

It was shalom but I’m not trying to guess what skater did what trick.

[G raham]

Real ‘I’m making a company for money n nothing to do with a love of skateboarding’ vibe

[Not A Damn Chance]

Shane and Yuto do the most fucked up shit but I couldn't care less
I like their effort though
Nollie inward heel on the bank to bank spot looked super fun

[ballintoohard]

This promo was better than about 85%-90% of Blessed

[Global Moderator]

Wow. Amazing how much work and planning can go into something so forgettable. 

[ralf_]

yooo it was super sick.!

Shane's ender was pretty amazing, but I no longer have the mental capacity to care about another new board brand.

[johnes]

I def agree with that.

[FROTHY]

Yuto is really good. I kind of wish he existed in a different era though, because I can't really give a shit right now.

[Style Police]

 Yuto's 360 line

Thrasher:

Mentions a "heavyweight soundtrack"...

...proceeds to play George Michael and Eve.

[SHIREFLIP]

How are you gonna come at me with something visually boring when the audio is careless whisper?

[figureitout]

Pure dogshit all around. Whoever is creative director is terrible, songs/ graphics puke. Ive generally like Shane's song choices, only redeeming quality in my eyes,  but i now know they were the filmer/editor not him.

[jorge]

guilty feet have got no rhythm

[Chatbot]

4:3 fisheye definitely helped out. If this was filmed with a red or even a dslr, it would've been way more bland. Obviously the skating was amazing. I also liked how they had skaters I never even heard of. Better than building another SLS team

[JeremyScottofChapman]

Yeah not feeling it one bit. 

[Bobby Peru]

Thrasher:

...proceeds to play George Michael and Eve.

"Heavyweight" = "Expensive"

Using "Careless Whisper" is about a quarter step up from using "Never Gonna Give You Up." Whatever genuine jamhood masked by fun irony it had was destroyed by the internet well over a decade ago. Those two songs in succession play like the first playlist your older brother found on Napster in 2000.

Good skating and solid filming but this company is actually shaping up to be even more boring than I expected.

[huggs]

No Tommy Fynn??

someone mentioned in another thread he's getting on plan b
