I stopped halfway through working on a paper to watch this, and I'm glad I did. This is footage from the past five months of Tom killing Seattle and Chicago spots. I had the pleasure of filming Tom when he came out to Chicago this summer and got really hyped on him. Last clip has gotta be one of the craziest things I've seen on a scooter.
Props Tom, You finally got the perfect edit you've been working towards.
ReplyDeletesuch a gnar dog!
ReplyDeleteGreat edit but...to say tht last clip was the craziest thing you've seen on a scooter is kinda an over statement.
ReplyDeleteNahh anon thats a 7 flat 4 i believe? He's gapping the whole 7 flat to the 2nd stage downrail. Who else in our sport could do that?
ReplyDeletethat was crazy, last clip def the best trick i can think of. And the song was perfect
ReplyDeleteMe.
ReplyDeleteeach every clip in this video was fucking sick, that street style is the future of scootering, everyone who rides a scooter should ride this way.
ReplyDeletelol coedie LIP SLIDES a 5 flat five to the second down rail. and it looked even better in twans "this is scootering" video
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a solid ass edit, but it seemed like he had a lot of unnecessary pushing...it just bothers me when it seems like someone pushes just because, instead of pushing to get speed...don't know, it just irked me.
ReplyDeleteTom's banger was a huge 7 flat 4 rail, Coedies lipslide was on a short 5 flat 5 rail. The size of the two sets is not even comparable. And "this is scootering" has dubstep in it, so it is automatically less cool.
ReplyDeleteoh come on wtf... there was like 5% originality in this video, the rest of the video was boring tricks copied off other riders... wow rail whip out, feeble 3 downside out, the list goes on for repeated copied tricks. get some originality tom, stop boring the sport with basic tricks that half the inside followers could do themselves, but think its amazing because its filmed with an SLR or fisheye
ReplyDeleteWow... these kids really don't understand anything. It's not about the tricks it's how you do them.
ReplyDeleteAmazing edit Tom, keep up the heat
Thank you Travis.
ReplyDeleteThe tricks themselves are only half the battle...the locations, filming, editing, all of that plays a part as well. Tom puts in effort to find spots, which is awesome.
the sport is full of haters... thats one thing that sets this whole scene back.
ReplyDeletethis vid was fucking sick tom! so many good clips, especially that x up double peg, sooo original and of couse the last clip man!
to the little anon @#!*% hating on this video: id like to see you try these "basic tricks" at the spots he's doing them at. the fact that all you look at is the trick hes doing and not the spot just shows that you know absolutely nothing about street riding. scootering isnt completely about who can add one more barspin or tailwhip to a trick to make it a "never been done", that @#!*% gay and boring to watch cause its almost always done over a flybox or on a quarter. tom actually looked for those spots and nailed some insane tricks despite the rugged street conditions. try to get out of your skatepark a little more before you try to hate on a street video, youll look alot less retarded
ReplyDeleteHow people are actually hating, or "trying" to hate on this video is kinda funny. lol
ReplyDeleteGreat edit Tom. I def. think there's some stuff he can improve on, but overall he is progressing really well.
wow whoever that was who was saying "stop boring us" is a fag. If ur bored by any of these tricks, make a more creative and "better" street video yourself. Guarantee it cant be done. This is fucking insane and until you move to seattle or chicago and check out some of these spots dont talk. The gap that he doubled doesnt even look possible standing over it. I met Tom at greenlake very briefly and hes possibly the coolest person living haha. Awesome video.
ReplyDeletethis is one of the best videos put out by any rider, ever.
ReplyDeleteF*ck haters
