Late late entry here, and I didn't read this thread, but that was fantastic.  Made Alien boards look sexy again.

I'm posting from my blackberry wtf?!?!?

Why would Real have slept on this dude? Seems so overdue to be pro and he’s had good footage for a few years now.

Because it's Real, their team is so stacked and they probably flow so many people the probability of passing on talent is high

I mean beyond them it seems he’d get some attention with the amount of footage he seems to drop and how quality it tends to be

It's definitely some aspect of marketability, because his old sabotage footage was great but like you said, not much attention there.  Shit I don't even think Suciu's Sabotage part really got as much recognition compared to his others.

I’d say it’s his cross continental type part if Alien is smart about it.

I think it might be my favorite part of the year which is really saying something considering how stacked the year has been

I generally agree this is the best part of the year, but lemme play devil's advocate:

Would it be better if edited down to 7 minutes or so? 5 minutes? It definitely was a choice to go ahead and have 9 minutes of high-quality footage (and it's amazing they were able to do so), but as the editor i would've agonized over wanting to make it shorter, out of wanting the best tricks to pop a bit more, and some clips feel a little superfluous

Why? What feels like it doesn’t belong or needs to be cut? Part bangs from start to finish.

To me it’s the binge watch a tv series vs one episode a week debate.   I’d prefer smaller segments so my attention doesn’t wane through the middle bit and I get three parts to build up anticipation, yadda yadda.   I do have ADHD, but also modern skate media has altered my endurance levels

Question still remains, what would one cut from this?

I get the modern attention span aspect but I think there’s an argument to be made for not breaking up this footage. The time span on these clips is at least 2017-2021 with three different board sponsors, all the while the dude dropped multiple parts between so it’s not like he was slacking. This was a dedicated project solely filmed by Mulhern that had a very specific vision....and they killed it.

Someone made a comment in the Verso thread about cutting the first song. I thought hell no, watched it, and had to admit there was some truth to it. In this case, however, I cannot even think of single tricks to be left out. Will be interesting to see how it ages for me, but so far I feel it’s just perfect.

Is this guy pro yet? What's taking so long? Some of the best skating I've ever seen.
