@@greengoblin4life aye yo I'm from nj. I skate at Paterson skate park, Hoboken skate park, west Nyack skate park, Tenafly skate park. Come through I'm local.
Hey would you happen to know why this video got like 5 million views. It’s really good but I’ve never seen a skate video get this many views before lol
@@MRCY223 that's amazing! I'm still struggling, but I've filmed myself and taken notes, so I know I need to lean back more and keep my shoulders square
@@davidleroy7225 yessir, keep the shoulders lined up with the board. Flick forwards and up. When you jump to pop jump up not forwards. That’s what works for me
That ender was a coming of age moment for Midler. Any doubts anybody has had over his skill and dedication to skating, it's obliterated with this part and specifically that ender. Beast.

@@stephcurry5939 they did good work announcing this video with clip on ig it was like 2 years of work and they upload videos without the clips, sayin like this clip will be in the godspeed video and shit
When Middler said “it didn’t even feel real” after back 3 sunset car wash- that about sums up this whole video. Didn’t know the homie/crew vibe could be captured this well. Damn. Incredible vibes guys. The Sandlot of skate vids.
@@rashe81 mikey kicked everyone off the team you see in this video. Never paid his pros a year after they went pro. No one wants the buy trash graphics . All his old friends are ashamed of him. Lots of funny stuff watch the gifted hater video its awesome
Watching Davonte’s RU-vid this looks more like his film than Mikey’s Honestly things happen for a reason and we’re fortunate enough to have this as one last remembrance for the good ol’ days
this video is such an inspiration. skating is more than trying hard tricks and being the best. it’s about companionship and enjoying our time on earth. this video is def gonna inspire so many new skaters and ALSO filmers that one day want to make their own films. execution was on point jolly ❤️
@ Isaac Rodriguez I feel you bro , especially about the part about enjoying our time on earth , a friend of mine : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bhz6HG2KpnI.html passed away last year :www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/san-diego-ca/synath-cheam-8829209 I still have a hard time accepting his passing. In my opinion it could have possibly been prevented. May he R.ide I.n P.aradise.
@@griffincamens6172 fools be dropping parts to late!! Jamie foy also did this the year he won soty. His last part of the year, the one he did with Ty Evans, came out after he already won soty even though it was probably intended to solidify his chance at the title.
It's so crazy how different skaters are by location. I'm a Mexican living in Cali my whole life, white people are the minorities at almost every skatepark i've been to. Mostly Black people and latinos. and I know that is the same for NY, , Chicago, etc.. a lot of places really, but for instance i have skated in various cities in Utah and usually (apart from SLC a little) it's all white people, lot of mormons of course too. But i've always loved how skating generally doesn't give a fuck about race or upbringing or anything like that, it's an outlet for anyone and it helps connect people. So beautiful. Much love
@@memedealer9417 fr doesnt matter whether ur rich or poor, white or black, where you live etc, how good you are, what matters is that ur having fun and sending it
I'm a 40 year man from Norway that's just spent the most enjoyable hour in a long time watching this video. The energy in this crew is amazing. The skating, the characters. Everything. So fucking great.
anyone whos actually at any point enjoyed being a skateboarder has to watch this and treat it like a pilgrimage. i watch it a few times a year. best skate video of the modern era

always find myself coming back to this cinematic masterpiece. but damn.. seeing angus cloud at 16:23 made me tear up a bit. hope all his homies are doing well since I know that illegal civ was a big part of his story ❤
Crazy to see Alex Midler with such a big part to end the whole video and seeing how far he's already come in that quick of time. Same with a lot of them.
This film not only had some of the craziest clips I've ever seen, but it really showed the other side of skating where you're just messing around with the bros. This is a fucking masterpiece and I'm sure it's going to inspire hundreds of kids to go out and discover new things and push themselves. Zion and Midler's part at the end really showed how insane and resilient skaters are.
Wow. So many great clips and good times. Midler’s part blew my mind. His ender was unbelievable.. I actually go to that car wash, like to wash my car... and I’ve stood up there and looked at that spot. Unreal.
Best skate video I’ve seen in years. The editing, the vibe, the music, the grading, the spots and the diversity in the lineup is absolutely amazing. Almost impossible to pick one favorite but Zach, Neal and Middler’s parts were an inch above the rest. Pure joy. Huge congrats to everyone involved. This is a future classic and a testament to that skateboarding has never been in a better place.
The full tracklist (thank me later) : Frank Ocean - Godspeed Baby Keem - STATS Loose Ends - Stay a Little While, Child Hip Hop Comic - Ass and Elbows Otis Redding - Sittin’ On The Dock Of The Bay Young Nudy ft. 21 Savage - Ea The Jackson 5 - Who’s Lovin’ You Lil Baby & 42 Dugg - Grace Daniel Caesar - Japanese Denim The Game - Wouldn’t Get Far Brent Faiyaz - Burn One (Interlude) Miguel - Banana Clip Mase - Feel So Good The Good Perry ft.

Straight up, this is the 4th time I’ve watched this. Every note is just right, the vibe, the editing, the music, the fun these lot are having doing this sh1t together and the way they buzz off each other’s success..well done Davonte this is good bro.
@@samm.3040 i got some random mail from Illegal Civ with a candy shaped USB that had some montage on it . I think they just sent it out to random ppl who bought something off their website
Man video of the year! Seeing Milder get knocked down time and time again to have the will power to do it again really showed me that if you set your mind to literally anything you can achieve it. After he landed those last three tricks including that back 3 it brought tears to my eyes. Seeing how much love and excitement everyone else has for each other makes me wish I had a group of people around me like that. Thanks Jolly! Merry Christmas Everyone!
just broke up with my gf after tryna fly out to see her, so this has this has restored my happiness for the meantime thank you so much and i hope everyone else has had a better christmas than i have
sorry, i'm not english, i don't understand the meaning, bc i translate it maybe bad? is "ive picked up a few" an expression or something lol ? sorry aha
Yeah thats the opposite of Shoddy keeping it humble telling popo he only got a couple sponsers lol, that man got endless sponsors, Including Real,Thunder,Spitfire, Nike, just to name a few man is get get getting it, the best of the best
That Midler ending with Giveon's "Alicia" playing and the celebration reactions had me in tears 2 days in a row, my first 2 times seeing it. Bless Midler, Davonte, Illegal Civ, all the homies, everyone who made this video posible, and skateboarding at large for all the joys, friendships, and life it brings. This is exactly what it's about ✊🏽
Google global truth project and read "the Present" to see the truth about life/death. Nothing is more important than checking it is true, especially pgs 1-4
Best skate vid ever. Perfectly captured the culture, camaraderie... incredible soulful music as well. Made me legit emotional. People living their dream on film.
@@Mac10Demarco I think it's the best in the last ten years but I haven't seen all of them obviously, it my opinion it's my favorite and already most rewatched
Nate Cohen Zero- Cold War, Real- Since Day One, Emerica- Stay Gold, Vans- Propeller, Toy Machine- Programming Injection are excellent videos with heavy parts. Godspeed is freaking great and is one of the best in the last 10 years but, there’s so many great videos. Depending on the style of skating you like, the answer will vary depending who you ask.
Reminds me of a Baker vid but with even more of a personal touch, this Davonte character sure can make the hell out of a skate vid. Everyone was Gnar but Midlers part was disturbingly excellent.
Coming from an ex skateboarder from the early 2000’s, to see how this sport has evolved and kept this raw and pure. It makes me so proud. Masterpiece in film making.
Just recently picked up a board for the first time in nearly 12 years. Nowhere near as good as I used to be, but the feeling is there. These kids today are simply brilliant. The purity of the craft is still there
That is the least impressive thing about this video. Editing clips to beats is nothing new. Literally has been happening since the beginning. It's not like they are skating with headphones in trying to land a trick is sync with the snare.
@@martyd.451 Lol yeah that's every skate video, I honestly thought the music was too soft at times for how heavy the tricks were. still a banger video tho obviously
I used to skate back in my high school days. After watching this video I realized how much I miss skateboarding. My stim check hit today and the first thing I did was buy a board. One of the best skate videos I’ve ever seen.
