THE TILT VIDEO - Credits

I already wrote the description on Youtube, it really says it all-

"Wow. It's hard to believe that The Tilt Video is wrapping up it's online release. Nobody really knew how the video was going to turn out when filming first started. Nobody really even knew what they were filming for back then. All they knew was that it would be rad to make a full-length. So eventually, video parts started forming, and we knew a DVD had to happen.

The credits shows only a tiny slice of everything that happens while filming, from everything before and after the trick, as well as the usual memorable bails. Thanks again to everyone who had a hand in making this, especially the team, the people behind the scenes at Tilt, and you, the viewer. Next up: Tilt 2."

THE TILT VIDEO - Tom Kvilhaug

The description on Youtube really says it all:

"TomK is one of the hardest working dudes in scootering. Up at the crack of dawn, he's always ready to rip. This part is a nonstop flurry of bangers. Don't blink or you'll miss the madness."

If you haven't picked up a copy of the Tilt Video, you need to do so now.  It is a must have for any scooter rider.

THE TILT VIDEO - Josh Young + Interview

Josh Young, originally from Corunna, Michigan, moved out to Vista, California a couple years ago to work for Proto.  During that timespan he, along with the rest of the Tilt crew, filmed for their full length video called "The Tilt Video".  Tilt premiered the video at SD7 to a full house in January and is now dropping the parts online.  This week Josh's part is being released, so I hit him up to find out a little more about his part and to see what's up.  Check his full section at the end of the interview.

First question: Your part in the long awaited Tilt Video is dropping, how does it feel?

Pretty crazy, I'm just hyped that the whole video is going to be online for everybody to see. Now I can just tell people to go on youtube and type in The Tilt Video and they can see what we're really about

How long did you personally spend filming for it? Do you think overall the video lived up to the hype?

I would say I spent 2 years filming for my part. Pretty much started when I moved to California. Seeing how there wasn't to much promoting the video it was just kind of a lowkey thing like people knew we were filming but no idea to the extent that we were going. Nobody seen any of the video until the premiere so I was looking forward to seeing it just as much as everybody else. I was hyped on it.

Yeah I was gonna say, this is your first part since moving out to cali. What's it like filming out there vs the midwest?

It's super easy because I pretty much have every spot living in southern California but its hard because so and so did this on it or somebody is at the spot or there are to many people to ride it. In the midwest its like OH SHIT A SPOT?! Pretty damn good chance to that nobody has even touched it or thought about filming a clip on it haha.

There are definitely advantages and disadvantages to each.  You used to be big on being the filmer, I remember when you were such a camera fiend.  And we all know about the tattoo.  But I kinda noticed you took a backseat on filming responsibility during the Tilt Video, why was that?

Being the filmer means your not riding. I out of everybody had I'm guessing the least amount of footage for the video and when your the filmer it's hard to ride the spot. Plus I'm picky about how I'm filmed so if it's going to be filmed bad I'm not even going to try to film a trick. Having responsibilities sucks haha I just want to have fun and ride and not think about anything on trips. But being responsible gets you where you want to be haha

True.  You still are always one of the first ones to be like "yo lets get the camera out" and just taking care of the cameras.  Is this the last VX part we'll ever see out of Josh Young?

Hahaha hell no I got something in the works right now that I'm really hyped on. I've just been trying to have fun and film whatever and not stress as much. But andrew did just give the go ahead to get an xtreme fisheye for the proto hvx so I'm looking forward to filming with that setup!

Fer sure.  HVX/xtreme is a monster setup.  What tricks were you most psyched on in your part?

The first trick in the part is like a warm up trick but I was trying 180 dub whip to fakie out of the manny and I knew I wasn't going to land it so fuxking around I just whipped the bars around without moving my body I felt like. Idk it was stupid bit looks funny to me haha. And the half cab down the dub set. Always wanted to do that. And rincon glad I got that one out of the way haha

Yeah rincon kinda came out of nowhwere for me, that was so gnarly.  One of my favorite clips in the video for sure.

Yea it was like 2 weeks before the deadline and i just was like alright chema lets go to rincon and film a ender haha.

What's that process like for you, filming a super heavy trick like that?

Rub my hands on my pants. Wipe my face with my shirt. Adjust my hat. Wipe hands again then deep breath and send it hahaha it's stupid but if I don't do the extract same thing every time and go from the exact same spot I can't even try to do it haha. It's dumb but true more focus or some shit when stressing while filming something.

Yeah dude, always gotta find that same crack or whatever to start from haha.  So with The Tilt Video, what do you hope kids take away?  What kind of impact do you want it to have on scootering?

I don't really know I just want people to know that if you are serious and you take time and do something right it will turn out good. Have fun and don't copy everybody else. Do what you want to do.

Word.  That should wrap it up, anything else you wanna add?

Thanks to Collin for supporting me the past 5 years. It's been good and only getting better. Also thanks to everybody who came to the premiere in San Diego it was a great night!

And now, scope Josh's section from The Tilt Video-

THE TILT VIDEO - Issac Miller

Forget the Instagram clips and Facebook videos, this is the real deal folks. Two years of hard work and dedication culminated into this banger of a part. Sit back and watch Issac destroy the streets.

The TILT Video- Intro

The TILT Video is finally dropping online, and the first part was uploaded at midnight last night.  This one is the intro.  These guys all worked amazingly hard on this DVD so definitely be sure to watch.  Every week a new part will drop from the video. Check back each Friday at midnight (late Thursday night) to be one of the first to see the parts.

Robert Ralph Monky McMoran | TILT VIDEO TRAILER

Ralph's part in the Tilt Video is probably the one I've watched the most.  His ability on a scooter is something you just can't duplicate.  That front board whip popover in this trailer is one of the sickest clips I've seen lately.

Jon Archer | TILT VIDEO TRAILER

If Jon's part consisted of only 180 heelwhip variations, I wouldn't even be mad, bro.  Nobody does em better than he does.  He also does lots of other cool tricks so make sure you get a hold of a Tilt DVD to see em.

Josh Young | TILT VIDEO TRAILER

Josh "Young Money" Young is the biggest homie around.  Born in the Midwest, transplanted to sunny California when he took a job working for Proto a couple years back.  While work does keep him busy, he does have access to tons of spots being down there, which is the biggest difference for his part in the Tilt DVD compared to his previous videos.  This is only his teaser, but it should help you get hyped for his part in the DVD.

Issac Miller | Tilt Video Trailer

Izaak Gmill Miller scooters all day every day of his life, more than anyone I can think of currently.  I had the pleasure of filming a large part of his section and I can tell you, it's good.  But I'm sure you didn't have to hear it from me.  Buy this video if you're not a a complete idiot.

Tyler Wheeland | TILT VIDEO TRAILER (And Premiere Venue Announced)

Lol Tyler doesn't actually scooter so the teaser is of him being weird instead.  I'm actually a little surprised there's no motorcycle clips in there.  Must be saving those for his part.  If you would like to find out if he does scooter (spoiler alert: he does), feel free to attend the Tilt Video premiere at Ken Cinema, 4061 Adams Avenue, San Diego, on January 4th, 2014 (after SD8).  Doors open at 8.  Here's the official announcement:

Erik Feenstra: Tilt Video Trailer

Erik's part is what I'm looking forward to most in The Tilt Video.  The description on Youtube says it best- "Erik floats. Seriously, just floats. Then he goes and hits the gnarliest rail around. You won't hear him, you probably won't even see him. Before you know it he's destroyed the spot and floated away."

Jordan Jasa Tilt Video Trailer

You guys don't need to hear me rant on and on about Jordan's riding, like I've done before. You will all see for yourselves how good he is as soon as the Tilt video drops. I for one am more stocked on the Tilt Video than I have been for almost any other video in the past. For now check out his teaser.

Tom Kvilhaug | Tilt Video Trailer

So I guess you could say this is the first "official" trailer for The Tilt Video.  Tom is most known for slamming hard, and this clip is doesn't exactly change that rep.  He's got 13 minutes worth of landed footage though, it's gonna be wild to see what fits in his full part.
