Went to the premiere last night
1-
Louie had a two song opening part which got the ball going really quick. Best part he had put out, and easily in my top ten of all time. I remember him tre-flip lip that New Mexico ditch spot that is a downhill hubba/ledge into a steep bank. That was nuts. Forgot what the ender was, his part just kinda stopped.

Dennis footy was below par in my opinion. He only had a few clips, maybe 10 clips? He was just cruising in the montage section. Enjoyable nonetheless.
3-
Dustin Dollin's part was entirely slams. He didn't land one trick. They edit it for comedy which was pretty funny. After "he hits his head" he goes into a dreamlike state where his contracts are being terminated, scooter kids kicking him, and his leg had to be amputated. His slams were fucked up bad. I don't know how he didn't get injured for life.
4-
Jackson Pilz footy is incredible, he shared a part with
Axel Cruysberghs. Jackson's feeble looked too easy. That kickflip over the fence is his ender and is straight jacked. Axel's part was gnarly, but kinda forgettable, unfortunately.
5-
Milton Martinez had a sick part, he had some insane street footy paired with gnarly tranny stuff.
6-
Alec Majerus part is fucked up. One of the best in the video IMO. Kickflip crook this spot (

Daan Van der Linden's part reminded me why I love skateboarding. Carefree style and attitude that was coupled with dork tricks magnified to extreme levels. He heelflip indys that Atlanta 4 Block spot. Everything was done so perfectly. Grinds a stupid long rail to the point where I laughed. That backsmith stall in the photo on the other page is insane. He ollies outta it perfectly into the tranny. Ender is the backnoseblunt. Volcom likes to ruin it, huh?
8-
Dane Burman's part was sick, more drops than anyone else. Kinda forgettable among the madness of the video. That kinda happened alot. You would forget who just skated because there was so much going on. Alot to take in at once.
9- I don't know who
Jordan Trahan is but his part was honestly the least impressive. Who is this guy, I thought he was like the filmer at first. lol
10-
Chris Pfanner does the same tricks, but does them bigger, better, and faster. Nothing notable.
11-
Grant Taylor and
Collin Provost share the ending part of the video. They skated to a gothic heavy metal track that fit so perfectly. Dudes shredded the fuck out of the tranny. But GT got down on some big ass rails. Really surprised me actually. Was not Collin's best part, still liked it. At this point it was hard to remember what anyone did because there was so much shit to watch.

Overall, this video was sick. Soundtrack was rad and fit everyone perfecty. Alot of the spot I have never seen before. Alot of drone shots, they overkilled it. 4K was awesome, and the filming was really well done. Alot of effects, and very theatrical - this entertained my girlfriend more than a homie video. Daveed got injured so he didn't have much footy other than pool tricks in montages. Overall it was pretty sick. The re-watchablity is so much higher than Pretty Sweet.
