Godspeed - Davonte Jolly

Ishods part was dope, so was that Zach kids never heard of him. Wasn’t feeling the rest tho. All these dudes are stupid good, just not for me.

[pizzafliptofakie]

So does Nak just come on the sesh to give speeches or something?

A theory in defense of the red bull hat....isn't that both zion and midler's first sponsor?   I mean when you're a little kid and you get the offer most little kids would take it.   Then as you get older they keep paying you when nobody else does and providing opportunities for you.

I'm not saying I like it but I can respect it.   Its not the same as if ishod starting hawking red bull.

He’s too busy ironing monster patches on his jeans.

Bottoms up. And the Devil laughs.

Something to think about.

On the subject of that Do you think monster don’t make ishod and gt wear the monster hat because they understand that there like a “skaters skater” n if they were to wear one it would decrease there marketability value cause with those energy drink deals usually ur contractually obliged to wear the brands hat in public n everyone else on the main monster skate team seems to do so other than those two

honestly wouldn't be surprised. his amount of talk in the video made me like it considerably less.

[HORSES]

Good video. Ishod is just getting better & better.


Looks like they just turned Midler, Kevin & Zach pro.

Maybe I’m just getting older but it’s so cringe arguing with adults who are actually doing their jobs, or own property. And the skateboard argument of ‘i Have to do MY job too’. People I work with contracting would beat the shit out of these kids

Nah there's just differences in contracts, its one of those opt in to receive $$$$$ or opt out to receive $$$ scenarios

If only they started making them drink these again

[Acky Jacky]

My girlfriend chilled with me for a second while I was watching this and then Nico Hiraga's part came on the song immediately is just some misogynistic crap about video vixens "fuckin rap stars". Not sure how that was supposed to mesh with some pretty, rich kids skating. I could look the other way if it was Kool Keith Sex Style shit, but I honestly was confounded by that song choice.

My girl kept watching and laughing when people would storm off running at their friends when they landed a trick and then look at me, sort of wondering why I'm stone-faced. I eventually was like, "Sorry, it's just that this is a huge cliché in skate videos so I don't find it amusing."
(Stick in the mud award).

It's also bizarre that on the Thrasher "Deadline" video Jolly was all, "I just want to showcase how loving, and caring and funny my friends are..." but most of the B-Roll was either self-congratulatory or them being dickheads to security guards.
Hiraga to the mild tempered maintenance guy at the church, "Could you not man, for like five fuckin minutes..."

Anyways, I'm trying to re-watch some parts of this and am just thinking about how immature skaters act. I mean Ishod is paid very well to do what he does and he's mocking the fuckin church guy. And then Nak rolls up and powerslides to try to fake the guy out (who doesn't even flinch by the way). Whatever, but why include it in the video? Babies.

[Urtripping]

Sometimes including banter really works, I don't think it did in this one.

Can't believe Kevin White went in for the hug after that 270 when Midler was looking like this

[sk8ordontordie]

California is weird man

it's SUPER entitled behavior and watching skaters act tough and intimidate people over not being able to skate somewhere is nothing but self-absorbed, adolescent shit that makes all skaters look bad

the minute someone even approaches you with intent to kick you out just leave, what sort of asshole do you have to be to think they're doing something wrong?

[thot juice]

isnt just skating the spot that ur not supposed to & making the ppl come out just as entitled & self absorbed so they just should avoid the spots all together YAWNNN they out here getting clips for a vid u & your mom watch so stfu

[Lame_Nigga]

Damn... It's crazy that grown adults who got so good at an activity where they mostly hangout with their friends, loiter, and never had to get "real" jobs or mature in any real way are acting like that.

[figureitout]

One of my fav Ishod parts, he went off!  so did Zach (great part), so did Kevin.  I'm going to watch that Ishod part a ton.


The rest wasn't really for me and that's ok.

Back 3 carwash was sick as fuck, minus redbull

I’m going to say this in the most respectful way not to you but the overall reception of these parts of the video, but what made this different than all the videos we grew up on (as older dudes) specifically baker bootleg-baker3, a ton of transworld vids, 411’s, zero etc... that everyone praises around here? I’m not saying you worship those videos but maybe it’s more kids are gonna be kids and act up and we’re all just getting old. Greco literally was punching security guards and civilians to get his board back for years yet he’s a legend “on here”. Heath breaking down fences or kalis/stevie both at love scrapping with under covers. IMO all are okay but stop worshipping the dudes you do because they skated to mobb deep and Metallica in a video you saw 20 years ago and can’t get over your lost dream. Maybe I should’ve put this in the unpopular opinion thread. And yes I’ll see myself out now and “tell me how you really feel” comments are expected.

[h00man]

I had really low expectations for this video, mainly because of IC, but worth it for ishod and zach alone.

Zach...that kid is the future. Best part imo.

Also, Midler has the dumbest, most punchable face, but god damn there is no denying he is amazing on a skateboard. Never was a fan of him, but to not give him any credit for the insane shit he did in this video makes you a fuck head.

[fredgallSOTY]

zach saraceno is very good
ishod wair is very good
i want shareef grady's pink cardigan

[urbneathme]

i really enjoy how clean kev white’s style is despite looking super sketch. it’s really personable

[companguero]

He took the abrupt transition to the sidewalk real smoothly 

[CossRooper]

Lots to question here -- red bull fucking everywhere, god tier cringe IC spot arguments, way way way too many interludes with dudes talking about absolutely nothing where it is unfunny to literally everyone on the planet except for the people who were there etc -- but ultimately you can't deny the skating.

Midler, damnit!!! those last few tricks were on another level. 

[notmikerusczyk]

this video just really made me feel like a boomer
