Nike stay winning. And this minimal flip tricks trend is the best skateboarding trend since the return of the no comply.

its kinda hard to communicate how regular i would feel wearing a t shirt that says 'hockey' in canada

Donovan = Really good.

Fitzgerald = Ugly.

*Donovan really reminds me of Sean Penn for some reason

I found this old Donovan part

It was good, but I'm not a very big John Fitzgerald fan. I don't know what it is. His long gangly ogre like limbs just turn me off. Maybe it's the fact that his feet are a size 22 and that freaks me out. Anyyyyyyway, Donovan's surfy stuff is sick.

Also, the more I look at all the independent board brands out, I think FA is the weakest/wackest of all of them.

was there ever footage of this. such a rad photo

heritage · « **Reply #130 on:** April 16, 2015, 10:30:56 AM »

The graphic direction of the company leaves a little to be desired. Aside from the Bernie Parent Time cover, the other boards are just sort of meh. They've had time to hash this out and the best they could come up with are some dumb "rockers" graphic and a desk carving? Just seems scattershot. No real continuity or direction. And as others have mentioned, $80 for a hoodie seems a little excessive.

SHARPSHOOTER · « **Reply #131 on:** April 16, 2015, 11:21:51 AM »

Donovan is like a way better version of Omar Salazar.

makingwinewidraisins · « **Reply #132 on:** April 16, 2015, 11:22:40 AM »

God damn that was good, I don't know if he did it consciously or not but there were definitely some B.A and Schroeder homage in a couple of Johns clips. Donovan really surprised me, his balls seemed to drop fully since that last nike vid.

all of dill's shit intentionally evades any kind of strong aesthetic.
compare all the FA/hockey drops to a wallride or deluxe catalog, it's how they keep the hype going.
everything is a surprise because there is no pattern to it.

both of the videos theyve put out have operated on gimmicks (raw footage and the idiocracy footage).
id like to see them put out an actual edit with good music, fa or hockey.

art hellman · « **Reply #134 on:** April 16, 2015, 11:44:38 AM »

nothing gimmicky about "raw" footage

abudabi · « **Reply #135 on:** April 16, 2015, 11:54:43 AM »

gimmick might be the wrong word.
it's not a standard edit either way, you cant put out a full length video of like this without it being a concept video.

Both FA and Hockey know how to make money off of absurdity, making them both great. Period. The fact that there is no detectable gimmick is brilliant.

Because I am a loser with no video editing skills I play this promo on one monitor and have youtube play music on my second monitor.

John's part
Redbone in the City- Bad Brains

Donovan's part
Del the Funky Homosapien - No need for Alarm (I think Felipe skated to this, but who give s a fuck this isn't a real video songlist)

At :36 Walker Ryan ollies an entire handrail too but the one Fitzgerald does looks so much gnarlier and he blasts past it. I remember always wanting someone to ollie an entire handrail lengthwise and these guys do it so well

I think the name IS dumb....but I'm getting over it....can't believe they aren't playing it off as an inside joke..'OMG.. You actually thought it was named after like a bunch of guys on skates?'

Girl is a really stupid name too....why do a bunch of dudes wanna ride for a team called Girl?

Canadians think its bad because their country has no culture....

jeremyrandall · « **Reply #146 on:** April 16, 2015, 05:43:34 PM »

Super impressed with the footage in this promo. I really like both of these guys.

But like someone else mentioned, a company named Hockey will never get me to buy anything from them. In Canada, hockey jocks are the worst form of meat head, and I want no association with them whatsoever. Oddly enough I could see this brand selling really well in Canada among the exact same demographic who eats up all the RDS shit - Hockey Jocks and Rig Pigs. It's too bad because I'd be happy to buy a board with John Fitz's name on it, but I ain't buying no Hockey shit.

a DEUL pro model could actually be a clever marketing approach especially for a new company with two riders who juts turnt pro - DUEL PRO MODEL? that would be a tight trend yo an for the soundtrack they shoulda skated to a duo like the jesus and mary chain/hope sandoval - sometimes always or marc almond/siouxsie - threat of love or sinaed o connor/shane macgowan - haunted
