First two tracks were abysmal, holy hell. If you want to use screamo (you shouldn’t) at least use something good: Shotmaker, Portraits of Past, Indian Summer, etc…those vox and riffs were fuckin beat, really took away from the video for me.

agree with this sentiment haha, I saw some small ig edit that used the intro from Indian summer - angry son/woolworm and it was actually awesome. hard combo to pull off. some tongue in cheek i hate myself would've worked well IMO haha

overall, loved the video - the skating is right up my alley. so sick

Really enjoyable watch. Figured this was at high risk of coolguy bullshit but that was at a minimum. Mango’s best part IMO in years.

Will be rewatching for sure.

I dread the future of skate videos if this is the direction soundtracks go in.

Ender was one of the coolest tricks I’ve seen in a long time.

That was a really fun and enjoyable watch. Ludvig had some cool tricks but every one had nice stuff. Jesse Alba seems a bit lazy, low effort but I also liked his tricks.

10/10 will watch again.

That would’ve sucked if it wasn’t for Mango.

Isn't there supposed to be a new Polar video soon? Brady should be in that.

not too many clips from polar riders was a bummer, but hyped to know that we’ll soon be seeing them in the polar video

I don’t get the feeling that Pontus had much to do with this video. I just rewatched no comply, wall rides and shuvits and that video had a unique perspective. Maybe there are just too many 12 minute videos these days. I like it but no more than an FA video and I usually like Polar Videos the most. Also, I prefer less color with a more grainy look but that’s probably because I came of age during VHS and Hi8 videos.

Daaaamn that made me wanna go skate really bad. I actually dug J Albas footage and Milic is so damn creative, love it. Also did anyone think maybe Pontus named it after “Corey Feldman’s Angels” in a joking way?

Chris is brilliant and carried this I think. Nothing will top it’s a secret imo
But I’d love to be proven wrong - repeatedly in fact!

Also - some talk in previous posts of Chris Millick pro shoe - are there any pics?

I'd agree Chris mimic carried the whole vid. I can only even remember two tricks from the first half and ice watched it three times (pole jam to clown shoe landing, acid drop off a roof to grind a curb). It's my own problem but I really find skating to be even more forgettable when instead of an actual song it's just some kind of general noise for backing.

such a great video! idk why you guys keep complaining about jesse being a lazy skater or whatever because that's how he has skated his entire career, if anything he got much more buck in this video compared to previous ones

I agree, this was the most exciting footage from him in a long time.

@Mean salto I think you're on to something with regards to the music... songs with lyrics do make parts more memorable in my experience too.

If no names in the videos is just a thing we all have to accept, at least here they timestamped it.

Mango really is that quirked up white boy with a little bit of swag who busts it down sexual style

It was kinda 50:50 for me...

Half of the clips seemed like guys goofing around, which is understandable if the Polar guys are stacking footy for their full length.

On the other hand, Ludvig, Grund and Mango killed it. Chris' part even had the right amount of "conventional" tricks sprinkled throughout that would remind you this is not a case of a kid doing semi-circus tricks cause he cant kill it otherwise.

Music was detrimental to the edit for me. Ok, its not my cup of tea, but it just didnt work in general. There's a lot of music I love that I'm aware wouldn't work in a skate video whatsoever. At least it was on trend with whats popping in the scene right now. Oh, yeah, and Mango's song - also not my trip, but it fit his part nicely.
Chi vive in baracca, chi suda il salario,
Chi ruba pensioni, chi ha scarsa memoria,
Chi ha crisi interiori, chi scava nei cuori,
Chi legge la mano, chi regna sovrano,
Chi suda, chi lotta, chi mangia una volta,
Chi gli manca la casa, chi vive da solo,
Chi trova scontato, chi come ha trovato...
