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.

Critics are raving over professional skateboarder Shane O'Neil's brand new skateboard company, April:

Those were songs I would have put in an edit as a middle schooler trying to be ironic.

First song was corny, unexpected throwback for the second. Are all those people fully on? Seemed like a lot for a company that just started. Ish was the best part fr

Great skateboarding (obviously) and I'm happy the roster consists of people I'm not familiar with and seem to bring something interesting to the table.

Hopefully it'll become something solid like I think Primitive has.

I feel like Jerry and Malto had a baby and named him Yuto.

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 is exactly how I feel about this video (& this brand at large too). just another bland mediocre generica board brand that doesn't seem too artistically inspired, if inspired at all. just what skateboarding needs

someone remix that first half to another throwback jam like the 2nd half, cheesiness of that song just dilutes the skating IMO.

I actually like Ish clips, that first frontside flip out over the pole was good af.

For some reason the company reminds me of those horrible brands in the 2000's like the Menace rip off Media skateboards or Bike skateboards. What was that dudes name Tom K-something?

Anyway, April is pretty shitty
