Vans "Alright, Ok." (Elijah and Gilbert)

[ungzilla]

so stoked for the inevitable and rancorous pants discussion

[pizzafliptofakie]

I'm very excited for this. I've really enjoyed all the Vans projects that just focus on a couple riders and I'm a big fan of everyone involved in this one. (especially Greg Hunt)

They definitely chose Elijah/Gilbert to fan the flames of trousers warfare in these polarized times. I'm waiting patiently, refreshing my screen and ready to talk about leg openings

Mason is winning SOTY. There's no way anything in this video is taking the title from him. Quote me on that.

What a bold prediction.

No shit. Read the last page of this thread where people are, for some reason, calling Berle for SOTY.

What if - now stay with me here - people watch certain skateboarding videos for personal enjoyment, and not to determine who is worthy of an award with no defined criteria?

Woaahhh

Say whaaat. Bro everyone knows skateboarding is purely competitive and every part is about getting some kind of award.

While we're speaking about clothes, I wonder how much controversy Elijah will create with his new fits.

The Malibu living look doesn't bother me. He's making (even more) money now and he can dress however he wants – preteen Corey Duffel look included – so long as he keeps skating like he does.

Can confirm, best believe I'm going to be asking what pants everyone in this video are wearing

[figureitout]

Very juiced for this, two of my favs. I expect them both to have incredible parts, its hard to beat 4 great parts from Mason in the SOTY race. Gilbert, Mason, and Berle surely could give a shit less about SOTY which makes me all the more happy one of them is getting it (likely Mason imo)

I love Roy Orbison as much as the next man but christ it's been used 4 times?! that's not a great look. Do we know the music already?

Expecting great music, fits, spots, editing, and skating.

Edit: I'll check my own nonsense

What’s next on the horizon for you?

After this year, I just want to keep it going. It would be really cool to get SOTY. Not putting that out there… One of my biggest accomplishments—and one I’ve always set out for—was getting a shoe. Now that’s happened, if I were to imagine anything being as big as a pro shoe, it would be SOTY. If I can achieve both of those in one year, I wouldn’t even know what to say. I couldn’t ask for anything more than that. I’d probably look back at this year as one of the better years of my life. It’d be cool to have that, or at least to be able to say I tried as hard as I could to do that. This year I’m going to work my ass off, skate as much as I can, and try to travel. Just get as much stuff done as I can, and we’ll see what comes from it next year.

If you google "Vans, Alright OK" it brings up the YouTube link, and it's listed at a 31:09 run time. I find that hard to believe.

[close]

Big Crockett part, montage, Justin Henry, Big Elijah part seems like it could fill that timeframe

So supposedly there's a pre-recorded 'live set' of Danny Garcia playing beforehand, hence the longish run time.

Yeah I don’t think there’s a montage. Just the Elijah part and Gilbert with some Justin in it. So hyped for this!

[crunchydank]

Get your boner pants ready, y’all.

[Lowcalcium]

But when will it be released online??

Oh, sick, that sounds like exactly what everyone wants to see promptly at 5:00: an acoustic set instead of a skate video.

lol youtube chat is pissed

[Big Skatefase]

Whoa impossible noseblunt

[arcam]

Berle dresses like a Gas Station Attendant

[Jean-Ralphio Zaperstein]

cool pants

[BALAKOV]

nice dogs

[HORSES]

Gilberts part was.....underwhelming?


I know the song has been used multiple times before, but that Roy Orbison track went incredibly well with Elijah's 'hammer' section.

[funeral_tuxedo]

Greg Hunt always and forever <3
Heavy Ethan Fowler vibes coming from Elijah and I mean that in the best way possible.
Gilbert Crockett is incredible and unique and wow.

[midnightsnack]

bonkers.

Elijah Berle attempting to do the Austyn Gillette thing, where he tries to trick people into thinking he's hot through sheer force of will

[jamersonbass]

Elijah's skating is great, but does anyone feel like he's cosplaying Dylan?  In the arms and fits.

Also, his first line he had total Dill arms.  He's an amazing talent, but it feels disingenuous.
