As a former skateboarding addict i couldnt miss to post this. Transworld Skateboarding organized the Skate & Create Contest for the second time this year and the results are quite appealing. I always really enjoyed watching skateboarding videos back in the days and most of them are well edited. One of my favourite and a legendary skateboarding movie is Yeah Right! by Girl Skateboards. It had a part where they had painted their boards green to make a green screen effect and achieve an effect of invisible skateboards. Watch a youtube version here (couldnt find it with the original song). The full Girl video is here (the invisible boards scene starts at 56:43) .
So whats the Skate & Create contest about? Simple in a way: 1 Warehouse, 4 Teams, 1 Set of obstacles. And a lot of creativity to make something unique out of it.
Here are my 2 favourites:
This one is the best one in my opinion – “DVS -Wood” . Asthetics, music and editing are really good and make you want to watch this until the end (plus some amazing tricks).
