The Loaded Newsletter youtube channel keeps posting excellent stuff. My personal preference theses days is actually for lightly-edited, short videos with no music. I think a lot of people are overdoing it with the editing, trying to make everyday skating look all “epic”. I assume that Adam Colton did the editing on this vid. The editing is great, but the source material is also great. Really nice camera work capturing some smooth and stylish downhill. Great job guys!
This board shape really makes sense to me.Kind of Minicarve/Hypercarve -ish, but this has more nose. Good cutout shape to prevent wheelbite. A bit on the expensive side, but all of Longboard Larry’s stuff is hand made, and he does it all real nice.
A rad downhill run by Dustin Hampton, filmed by Adam Colton. This kind of stuff makes all the shortboarding flip tricks and whatnot seem pretty unsubstantial. Great job, guys.
Here’s a very cool downhill video from the Loaded Boards youtube account, of James Kelly. Minimal editing, which I’ve come to really prefer, and a good song by Radiohead. I wonder how long before the song gets pulled?! What an awesome one-way road. At some points James is fully outrunning the motorcycle that is following him!
