Love you, but I somewhat disagree with your assessment of it. The music fit perfectly & this was edited & filmed so well. This is one of, if not, my favorite edit in several years. That all said, we all have different things we’re looking for from vids.
Love you too and that’s why we can have an actual conversation on this. The filming and editing was tremendous you are so correct. I guess I’ve always devalued that part of the experience to a fault when I watch. Like Dom West and the Vine Street Videos highlight artistic. Same with Cayenne project. They highlight so much of the personalities that it maybe makes more sense to me. I wonder which of the 14 will be my fave.
@@BLADINGonTheBrain I'm curious to see which one ends up being your favorite, I always enjoy hearing the why behind it all. Sometimes, it's just a song you love that was used, sometimes it's a couple of clips, or whatever.
Found your channel earlier today. Love the content. How can I get in that slack my g 👀 Edit: I agree with your sentiments on the video. I am a very new skater and have no room to be critique anyone but it’s about that feeling you get from watching the section. I loved this edit from start to finish but it doesn’t give the same vibe as the Colin Kelso edit. We all have preferences and it’s great to be able to discuss them with friends and peers; even if you may disagree.
Thanks for subbing. Please send me an email, bladingonthebrain@gmail.com and I will see about the Slack channel invite. I'm excited to live to view the Colin edit; I hear the vibe is very different.
@@BLADINGonTheBrain I appreciate you. I’ll send that soon just got in from a session so I’m cooling down. And it is a much different vibe. I feel like it’ll be more your speed.
When I saw that 6 grind switch up on that ledge, my first reaction was my jaw dropped and immediate playback. Your reaction was “why didn’t he grab his foot”??? Dude come on lol.
I honestly would rather see one very cleanly executed switch up than a bunch of flailing around. I wish he had done two grinds with grabs but I realize for what he was doing that was impossible. Still wish he had.
there's a weird underlying vibe of just pure hate and animosity in this reaction, something I didn't know was still a thing within the inline community.
Totally appreciate you saying that. I really wanted to like this video and maybe the song brought my vibe down from the start. Is there a place in this community for alternative thought? I honestly spoke very highly of Sean overall. No hate at all.
To be fair i was hyped as hell to go out and skate after this edit dropped and spent ages trying to do torque-mak-torque and mak-torque-mak on a ledge just messing about for hours. Seans been one of my favourite skaters since the Truth days though ✌🏼
I love that. I’m a fan of the Truth series too, classic Fish. Plus the comeback. Amazing vids. I think you nailed what’s different. I have no desire to do fast paced tech switch ups. You may never see me do a torque. Hahaha. I’m glad though that this video got you out and skating.
@@BLADINGonTheBrain fish’s sections in those two videos are my favourites. Its what made me start skating USD’s ever since. I do like all the techy stuff, but thats not at all how i skate personally haha. I just try and do the tricks that i know how to do well. I’m not a big switch up skater either. Just fun to try and get out of your comfort zone sometimes trying that stuff and failing miserably 😅
As a Musician/Rollerblader and writer of emo music, I get you. Especially down tempo emo music, it just doesn’t shine in a skate video. Crazy to think that I actually toured with this band that is playing on this edit lol. I myself miss the punk rock, upbeat metal skate videos of the past. You just don’t see those anymore. It’s a different type of energy but…eh. Everything comes full circle though and I’m sure people will get tired of these edits and move on lol.
Oh wow. That’s a cool fact you just dropped. Is this band hella tight live? Check out Nils’ latest edit. It has the heavier, rock vibe. I felt the energy in his video.
Not sure if this video was picked so you could show your views on grabbed tricks, or ‘things that were a little too much’ for you, as you said in the video. It came across as very sassy, I can’t be sure that was a genuine reaction. If it was, as someone else has commented, I’m not sure we need that lens on skate culture anymore.
I appreciate your comment and glad I can be sassy if I want to. Nothing was scripted, it’s my honest opinion. If I can’t speak my truth then what am I supposed to say? I think you should check my other reviews as well. Let me know if they seem scripted or not the lenses you care to see. I can only speak honestly and reflect yo was not my cup of tea.
