berrics was sick when they still shot in vx

vx really gave those early Berrics videos an amazing vibe. A lot of the people behind the most memorable instant-classic Berrics videos and art direction are long gone and there are only a couple of people from back in the day who still work there/
In the first few years, it seemed like the Berries succeeded in spite of (not because of) Borra.
Good skating and a rather fresh concept at the time made us turn a blind eye on borra's presence

What happened with Battle at the Berrics? Did they say they're never going to do it again?

Per usual, I think people are underestimating just how much kids in the like 9-17 year old love shit like the berrics. i have a feeling they have an insanely large following/reach/influence etc and can move some serious ad/endorsement money. shits not going anywhere.

They still have a huge following of Zumiez kids.  They’ll probably turn it into a Woodward or some shit.

I could see this being the likely path. A berries skate camp would probably do pretty well.

I haven’t watched anything from there in awhile, but weren’t the walls all done up with ads for sponsors and stuff. Is that no more?

Yea it'll be like a gymnastic camp where the main filmer will stick screwdriver up your ass and will say its standard to get on team USA

It's still there, just now it's Struggle at the Berrics (apparently).

The berries was sick those first couple years it’s honestly sad seeing what it’s become. Those early battles at the berrics with Heath and Carroll and shit were so sick. I don’t  understand how they fucked up such a simple formula.

I haven't seen any other examples of this since I first saw it but rewatching it got me thinking it could be parody.
Must be parody... it's too bizarre.

Maybe they watched this and thought it was a funny joke.

The moment i saw the latest iteration of the berrics park itself i lost all interest. There is NOTHING creative about that park setup. Noooothing. Its a video game park, designed for bragging rights and in general, skateboarders arent that interesting, so if the skateboarding isnt interesting there isnt much else drawing me in. Its hard to make hanging out at skatepark into content thats overly compelling. Bunch of heads sitting around or rolling around trying tricks. Thats why they end up with thrown together ideas turned into challenges like the chris cole battles, the fastest trick thing and then a cut to yoon sul with a surprised facial expression and a high five as thats all that guy has to offer in any situation ever.

So if its just the same ledges rails and stairsets with ever growing and variations of tricks. Im good. Thats not content i need to see or feel like ive missed out if i dont.

what a stupid thing to say
[close]

I'm not lying, I prefer to watch a MF skating a glass deck or an iphone as deck than reading berrics being political correct or posting a girl doing a rocket mob flip or whatever da fuck they do these days, fuck them

the berrics peaked when they invited the original Welcome team to the park. Erik Winkowski is a legend for going into the fridge and eating Berra's fruit

I'd rather watch dudes skate a janky DIY spot than park perfect borrics.

This video of them sleeping over at the berrics is hands down the best contet the berrics has ever posted. lots of crazy skate setups and crazy ways to skate the park, plus some great hijinx
I have bad taste and I smell like fetta cheese

Berra has always been an insufferable man baby but at least he introduced us to Corey Kennedy.

starting to think that someone who doesnt skate is writing content/captions for their site/vids

probably a smart approach for appealing to their target market (people who don't skate)

I accidentally googled them recently and I saw there were opening times and Business reviews of the berrics skatepark. Are they open to the public now?
