Video: Shen company

Today´s video is from Martí Somoza for, like I said in a title, Shen company. Video has indeed only one minute, but with a great content. Dominantion of a video are bricks. Box is covered with brick imitation and one nice wall is made from mini bricks. Also there are some “normal” ramps like box and rails. Camera is in a good level and light traditionaly only on a park and dark along, but sometimes are some light changes. Good atmosphere of video completing a kind hip hop song. And off course tricks are great. (more…)

Video: Hooded

In this evening we´d like to show you one beautiful video. Styl of this video, evoke me older videos from CloseUp riders, which was same with used “ramps” and asian music. In video are..we don´t know how to name it. There are ramps, but they are made from cards and we have absolutely no idea how he did it, because of stability and stiff. These ramps, like what you see, are looking like made only from cards and no more. Behind this 2 minutes video is a peace of hard work. Much more work than on a normal fingerboard video. Perfection of video finishes great tricks.

Video: Box to box

The name of a video is a little bit true and a little bit false. Yes, there are 2 boxes, but allied with a lawn “foose”. It´s a long time ago, when we saw so much amazing homemade ramp. Simple, but with a great idea. Exept a little falsity on a rim it´s a precious work. Off course here is not the most important ramp, but tricks. We really like his nose manual to noseslide, pop shove it out. Next you can see combinations on a rims, a little bit of Harald Schon style. Cut and camera aren´t the best, but a very good average. Light and music we judge positive too.

We don´t know, where are you from, but here in Czech republic you can see a mixure of snow and melted snow-really great for a pants. So we are really happy about this video, because it all runs in sunny spring weather. Rider didn´t show his name, but he showed some nice combos like 360 flip to 5-0 with a style. All video runs in his garden in nature. Artwork is in a great level too. Cut is very nic and music in form of a slow drum and bass is passing great to this type of video.

Video: Delta

Today is quite difficult to be different, when you don´t have known name of if you are not a trick master, but Christoph Cremer have so great video edit, that I will remember him a moths after today. Really big proof, that if you will make a hard work on video, it´s worth it. Adjusting video with audio, Rewinding video abreast with scratching and slowmotions in common with atmosphere with video brings “ordinary” fingerboard video on the next level. Begun of the video reminds me horrors from Alfred Hitchcock (more…)
