Jordan Powell's insanely boned out switch fs flip was my favorite clip in the whole video.

No but really... That video was great. Awesome Spanky footage. Figgy is still so sick. Cool that Miner edited it... I don't love Colin Provost... His 00 days sober shirt didn't help.

the music made that really boring. didn’t give me any type of feeling while watching, which most of miners edits do.

this ain't it...

get it?

Quote from: I sniff my own butthole all the time
2nd vote would be for PJ. sometimes it is a fine command of the english language to say nothing and he extended that to skating. PJ's plan B part is the emperor's new clothes.

Felt like a classic Emerica vid to me!  Knew what I was in for wand was not disappointed!  Curious about the criticism around the shared part, I feel like these dudes are 2 peas in a shriveled pod

That was the most enjoyable thing I’ve seen in a minute. Fucking crazy that leo figgy and collin are all gnarly into their 30s but also branching out a bit. No complaints.

i don't think Figgy and Collin's skating meshes well enough to share a part

Agreed. I like Green a lot more for this reason. Individually, Provost and Figgy are super gnarly though. Still enjoyed the video.

Word is that Spanly is eyeing up a new spot for his next switch fs wallie. Tried a few and posted a pic of the tries to his IG but then took it down, but I was able to screengrab it.
























There was no wire. Clark's planet needed him.

Leo, Spanky, Collin were all enjoyable in this. He definitely has his specialty but watching Collin do flyouts is fun so i'm not bothered. A good impossible is always nice too.

Super glad to see Victor Aceves fully skate again, though he had crazy injury similar to Mike Mo’s.

really liked the spanky part too, editing that with no music whatsoever was the perfect choice

that figgy slam was hella hard too, the sound of that head on the concrete was powerful

Hate to say it, but I don't remember anything in this immediately after watching aside from Spanky's ender.

Figgy's nosegrind slam was fucked! I'm surprised he didn't break a wrist, he had so much momentum and just stopped on a dime, off that curb too.

Not a big fan of Colin's skating

Dixon's front crook to fakie might be the only time I've ever thought that trick looked good (on a bank to ledge/rail)

The first five minutes with the sludge intro that went nowhere fucking sucked
I was standing staring at the world, and I still can't see it

I'm in the same camp.  It was cool to see him do a bunch of manuals and such.  Plus he has a very nice Pflip game.

unfortunately that was old footage. he still can’t skate.
oddly enough there were a lot of pressure flips in a emerica video. for the love of god please make a full jordan powell part tim

I liked it. Nothing negative to say except Provost's wallie 3 the rock clip was filmed horrible. We also need more Wimer footage. His flick never gets old.

Figgy keeps reminding us that he's one of the best to ever do it.  the manuals were on point. underrated IMO

Collin is talented but so boring it's laughable.  how many ollies and Wallie 50s can someone film and think it's ok?

Leo Romero...hasn't changed..ever.  The dude is stuck in 2009

overall great skating, editing, filming but the aesthetic and the droning garage rock is just tired man.

we've seen all this before

wasn’t he wearing a mask for one of the tricks? thought he got hurt prior, unless the pandemic has really been dragging on that long

wimers switch 180 nosegrind or whatever was really nice

Thought it was gonna be more a showcase of the team but I really enjoyed it for what it was. Classic Emerica executed perfectly. Figgy is such a beast and Collin, despite the criticism regarding his predictability, often surprises me with his trick selection. The team montage was cool too. Spanky continues to baffle me with the wallrides and ledge shit he can pull off; and it was refreshing to see some of the newer guys on the team. I'm gonna go skate now because this got me psyched.
