Vans South Africa Presents: FACETIOUS | Skate | VANS
« on: February 26, 2021, 12:35:12 AM »


Facetious is Vans South Africa's skate team's first ever video project. The video has been in the works in the last 3 years. Our widely diverse team covers all corners of South Africa - from Cape Town to Johannesburg and all the way to Kimberly and features everything from 17ft pools to slappy curbs; we went far and wide to gather footage for this project.
Skateboarding has created a culture of looking at the world through a different lens and we are surrounded by people that always find a silver lining.
We often find humor in situations that, to the average person, is no laughing matter. Whether we walk off a heavy slam or survive a hill bomb, we facetiously
cope with whatever is thrown at us.
Facetious is nothing but proud South African homage.

I don't think I've seen a vid from South Africa before, so I'll save my snarky comments for another time. It was cool, seeing all new spots and I liked that they used a Raw Power track in the edit.
Because you can't kill and idea, and we will not be ruled!

the visuals are also mad visual yo
