Michael Goumaz Edit

Michael just shut it down. That's basically all you need to know before you watch this. 100% street, and bangers all around. I was also waiting to see this song used, and I'm glad it went with a really solid edit. Can't wait to see Michaels next edit.

Enjoy.

Danny Roberts Spring/Welcome to Blunt UK Edit


Well, Danny has come a long way, in a short amount of time it seems. This is easily his best edit yet. I am stoked that Danny is riding for Blunt UK now. There is no doubt that he is going to start to progress even faster with a sponsor like Blunt helping him out. He takes McWhips to a whole new level in this edit, and really kills it with most of these clips. Check it out below.

Skates.Co.Uk's Louie Reynolds Edit


First edit I've seen from this guy, and it was pretty good. Lots of bar and whip combos, and he rides pretty clean. He's a park rider, so if that's your thing, definitely check out the video.

Jon Reyes Flat Edit



Jon recently hurt his ankle, so he couldn't do any real riding and decided to film this.  Can't deny this guy has the best balance in the game.  Rides better on one wheel going backwards than most people can going forward.  Also has tricks both ways which is cool to see.

Easter Power Hour



Jason Griffiths, Dan Barrett, and Ryan Becker fit in a short session at Hopewell skatepark on Easter.  Dan might have been trying to reach orbit on that last clip.  Cool little edit for sure.

Tilt Team 2012





This is a video featuring every rider on the Tilt crew.   Bangers all around in this video, you'll enjoy it for sure.

Trevor Fitzpatrick- Steady Mobbin



Dude Trevor...Board to decade?  I mean its more of a feeble but wat.  I think I say this about every Tfitz video but he reminds me so much of Stefan Hefner.  Now if only he could acquire Stef's street skills...which I'm sure we'll see someday.

Gus Rymer 2012 Edit

Damn.. that's the first thing that came to my mind after this video was over. He rides street and park. Throws down bangers in both, and throws himself down gaps like it's no big deal. LSP and ShopECX rider, Gus Rymer has so much talent it sometimes seems to be overflowing. Really loved this.

Josh Brown Bamboozle Promo Part



Here's Josh Brown's promo for the Bamboozle DVD.  I'm a little confused now because I thought these promos were the actual parts, and that they were doing it like Lucky did with Opus.  Can anyone clarify?  As far as Josh's riding, he's killing it.  He finally did that whole handicap rail, so stoked on that.

Tom Mattingly- Easy and Steezy



Easy but Steezy is a mantra Tommy Daddono and I heard from this beatboxing skateboarder while out riding once.  Tom's trick in this video might not be easy (feeble triple, whip finger flat?) but he does make them look steezy.  Tom is representing Lucky Scooter Parts.

Anthony "Keca" Wixon Edit

Pretty unknown rider for the most part. Coming out of New York where more and more riders are popping up everyday, Anthony shows a lot of promise. Showing some skill in park and street, and killing it with one of the longest hang 5s I've seen in a while. Reminded me of Jon Reyes old video. Check it out below.

Thanks Biagio for the email!

MGP Three in One





Three videos from MGP. First up is a really chill Super 60 from Jackson Bartlett. Chill song, and really clean riding made for a really fun watch.

Filmed/Edited by Nickeh



Next up we introduce a new MGP Europe rider, Carlos Monne from Spain. Looks like he rides street and park, but kills it a little harder in the streets and with his tech style. It would be interesting to see an MGP rider that primarily rides street as opposed to park. Wonder what his next edit will look like.



Finally a little update video from the MGP USA guys who are currently doing the East Coast tour. This was a little clip from their stop at Beachwood Bicycles.

Adam "Ladam" Bolton Welcome to Trilogy Edit


Adam Bolton is one of those park riders that you can't help but watch. For most riders it was his infamous "July Edit" that made Ladam such a well known name in the sport. He then had a place with MGP, but that ended up not working out. He is now with Trilogy, and it looks like he's found his new home with the company. Check out his latest edit below. I'm interested to see this deck get onto the Market, and see other riders thoughts and reactions.



Filmed and edited by Joel "Wezma" Erwin

Ryan Upchurch Frontflips Travis Pastrana's Megaramp.



Ryan has apparently joined the cool kid club at the Pastrana compound and gets to ride the ramps, and this new Mega (which he says is the first to hit it).  In typical Ryan fashion he skips jumping the thing and fronties it first go.  Seems to have suprised a few of the people there by doing so, way to go Ryan.

theEMP Spring Line Promo



The guys at theEMP recently put this video out to promote their spring line of clothing.  Additionally it announces the newest team riders, Ryan Gould.  Pretty sick stuff, I wanna see more more more Monky footage.

Pol Acena - Zero Gravity Shredit

Barcelona shredder Pol Acena has been on the injured list for some time, and this is his first edit since being back on his scooter. While he says he's not 100% yet, he is starting to feel it again. Check out his statement below regarding him leaving Zero Gravity, and his latest edit below that.

"This will be my last edit for ZG. It's a bunch of chill clips filmed this past two weeks. I'm very gratefull to ZG. They have done a lot of things for me, but I felt that it was time to make my own way. I don't have enough words to describe how please I am.

Some of you will know that I destroyed and had surgery on my knee last year, and I hadn't been able to ride, so I'm riding again, not in my 100% but I'm starting to feel comfortable on my scooter.

I hope you like it, and expect more edits like this one this year.

I wanna thank all the filmers and Todd Scheffer for having me like his son for almost two years!" - Pol Acena


Robbie Cook Torn Scooters Winter Edit



Robbie is primarily a park rider but took a few months to film this street edit.  He did a pretty awesome job, as well as Riley Hughes with the filming and editing.  There are some pretty surprising tricks in here (hurricane back lip wat) so check it out.
