Yeah Right vs Sorry vs Baker 3

[ziggy]

I like the variety in Sorry

Photo and Mosaic are a bit samey, either you are completely taken by it or you aren’t

I aren’t

It’s Mosaic for me. No skips. Just rips.

Yeah Right and Sorry I have to vert button past skits and much of the appeal of those videos when they were the bleeding edge is the impact of a lot of tricks have weakened.

The worst part is they don’t make me feel like I need to go skate after watching them. Mosaic makes me want to roll.

My honorable mention: Dan Wolfe Closure

[close]

I love Closure, but it's a greatest hits album by Dan Wolfe.

Fully agree on Mosaic, it was peak Habitat that Inhabitants could never reach.

I love Dan Wolfe and Closure gets me out skating still, too. That's one of the biggest measuring sticks for me. If your video is getting a 49 year old man with chronic knee pain out the door, then I feel like it's worth noting.

[Uncle Flea]

I'm sorry that sorry ain't my favorite shit.

I like shackle me not

There was a lot of hype around This is Skateboarding and the DC Video around the times of their releases

Baker 3 felt like one of the first videos that was instantly accessible on the internet. Yeah of course that video probably had the largest influence on skateboarding culture of the decade

FF was all anyone talked about for nearly 2 years (lead-up and after its release). FF basically broke the internet back then

Sorry! is goat-level for all the reasons previously stated

Mosaic was my personal favorite from the minute it dropped through today. Pretty fucking perfect and timeless

[close]

Mosaic is the true perfect video. People saying Sorry but Alex Chalmers and Rune Glifberg parts were the weak points. Mosaic is a marsterpiece.

Mosaic is definitely the most well rounded between level of skating, editing, music, roster, spots, and impact. You had a section from a peak core workshop team and the full length of habitat so it's a win win.

I'm surprised at the amount of Yeah Right! dismissal too. That Paul Rodriguez coming out party of a part just made it official he was the successor to Koston's throne. Girl was the hottest thing smoking then and that video didn't disappoint whatsoever. Everything else was just competing for 2nd place at that point until crail decided to drop again.

Sorry is Apples, Arto and Geof. Even Bastien part is not that good, his really sorry was better.

Although, Mosaic is perfect till the end. Girl at the time was the biggest board brand in the game and everybody only talked about it. At the time we had time to spend watching skits before the skate session.

Its slap…photo over yeah right is cool guys missing Gravis and Analog.

how was bastien sorry part and danny garcias mosaic part not that good?

[Southernmost]

I just rewatched Bastiens part and it was good. Maybe not his best part but it holds up for when it was filmed. He was what, 15/16 at the time? Pretty much his debut. Filmed in a short amount of time if I remember correctly. Probably one of the best for his age in that era and probably the biggest kf front board ever when it dropped.

Bastien and apples are the only parts I can just throw on and watch at any given moment to this day so you lost me entirely with that take. That Bastien third and army line stands out in my mind the most out of that video. Way too many high level tech handrail NBDs for 2001 at the age of 15 and I don't think he got the credit he deserved for that part personally.

[Puddy Smally]

I fully maintain that Bastien could have been a GOAT under the right circumstances.

Same with CK1, same with Daan.

It makes you realize that in life many things are subject to the universal equation of “equal parts will/motivation and luck”.

[Pony_Slaystation]

People saying Bastien’s part wasn’t that good are lying to themselves. That dude was on a whole ‘nother level and his part was way ahead of it’s time.

[Ok]

ck1 and Daan both for sure.

Sorry definitely had the heavy hitters. bastien was intense. the whole video was.
flip was kind of a cooler version of 2nd act plan b tho.
shit like mosiac, photosynthesis, at least as contrived, but came off more mellow and rewatch able

[Mean salto]

Are people counting the habitat section when they say photosynthesis? And honestly how many people would watch sorry start to end?

Whole threads actually made me pretty thankful to have YouTube and be able to just put on any part whenever I want.

actually watching VHS was fucking annoying. Put in tape watch it on fast forward until the part you want, watch for two mins, fast forward to the next part you want. Stop. Rewind. Eject. Repeat with next tape.

DVDs were a bit better because you could skip thru parts but a lot of older DVDs had unskippable stuff before the menu so you'd have to wait five mins every time you put a new one on.

Ha I think we must have always skipped the habitat bit just because it feels too different and just watched it separately.

Misled youth could be edited like a modern vans video with a team montage and a single part. Jump off a building only goes for like 12 mins without an intro or the cartoon.

How someone can love bastien and apples at the same time? Bastien lands his tricks weird and squats more than necessary. Weird style and bad trick selection.

Kick flip fs board? Its can be biggest rail, the trick is not cool, only loses to inward heel. Contest guy trick.

In other hand Appleyard is the style goat.

My memory of photo is always AVE Habitat Kalis Dill (and Dway Red Bull ramp trick lol).   I know there’s other riders in there like Corcoran and I think Pops, but I don’t have vivid memories of it until I rewatch

Yea we're on two opposite ends of the spectrum. Dude could switch heel up 6 stairs so if you think you won't need to exaggerate the crouch for that kind of explosiveness then that's crazy. The nollie heel crook/back lip/tail down handrails on top of hucking switch, nollie and fakie off everything just being so far ahead of almost everyone else before his prime sold it for me. That tech gnar edge was blowing everybody out the water.

Plus I'm not sure why people are hung up on the flip front board(s) meanwhile he's big flipping and switch 270ing into them as well. He basically dropped/filmed a part per year for 5 years 2000-2005 until he was blackballed and ousted from the industry.

I was surpriser when I saw nollie heel back tail in that tiny rail at the first time. But, flip fs boardslide is  a contest trick and its ugly. I rather watch his really sorry part that is clean and has more cool tricks.

But now lets talk about Photo…cmon guys… it was an Habitat video. Most of the habitat guys had full parts and more clips than Alien Riders.
Dirdek 90% indor skatepark footage was a shame even for that era. The video had some skits like Dill in that olimpic sport and others 2.  Thats why I always was an Habitad fan more than Alien…to many drugs and ego.

Funny to rewatch Mosaic and see Pluhoski wearing dunks before that was a thing

[Longtimelurker]

Arto, Geoff and appleyard all untouchable at that time. Sorry takes that cake.

Interesting experiment though, if you take out the first and last part of each video and just watched the “middle” that tends to have a bit more filler parts but still get the overall vibe of the video,  how much does your opinion change?
 I don’t think sorry would hold up without arto and appleyard but I think yeah right would still be up there without koston and biebel

Huh?   The middle of Sorry is Bastian and Rowley.   The middle of Photo is the Habitat section, so that def holds up

All Crail vids sag in the middle and just did a rewatch on Mosaic and wasn’t wild about the middle bits but goddamn those last parts are better than remembered.    Danny Garcia would have been rad on NB#

ya man i fucked up, def deserves to be on this list. my original thought was just to include the 3 in the title, but then it dawned on me that they might just my own personal opinion about the best from that time (looks like i wasnt too far tho off judging by the results) .

imo as good as bag of suck is, its def an underdog, which makes it shine.  i guess my original thinking was was star power, hype, magnitude…all that jazz. as much as i love bag of suck, i guess i didnt see it as a direct competitor to sorry, like some of the others i listed.

that being said tho…”palasonic” is lacking alot of those things, but i think its the best video of 2010-2019 next to cherry.

bastien probably had harder tricks in really sorry, but it just doesn't have the same impact his sorry part does. you could feel the energy and speed in sorry, kid went the fuck off. look at how frantically hard he pushes in his fakie flip line at le dome. and in the third and army line the switch flip looks pretty gross like he just learned them, and yet who cares? stomp it the fuck down and go fast, just get after it. the whole package of the skating + music + editing gets me juiced asf and out of all the parts in sorry ive rewatched his the most. it's probably one of my favorite parts ever, it had the magic.
