Dirty Rabbit III

An epic Japanese skate video by Kizukush with a lot of impact skating


Japanese filmer, Kizukush, brings out an absolute belter of a homie project on Free Skate Mag, filmed in Tokyo and other parts of Japan 🇯🇵  This video has got my well-deserved vote for video of the week 🏆


It's filmed in 4:3 HD (which is my favourite), has some insane impact skating, stylish tech skating and loads of Japanese guys going absolutely rapid. As well as the footy, the tune mix is epic, with everything from The Streets to Funk Assault.

The Beagle Interview: Filming for Baker 3, Hijinx, and the VX1000

"Life is so much better when you recognise hijinx. I recommend it for sure."

Beagle

Legendary Baker Boys filmer Beagle talks on Baker 3, the VX1000 and more in this Living Proof New York interview


One of, if not my favourite filmer of all time, Beagle, talks for 40 minutes on the filming of Baker 3, his use of the infamous Sony VX1000 and all the shenanigans that surrounded that life.


Beagle is the nicest, coolest guy ever, and he's also a great storyteller - so I was so hyped to see this interview come out.


I love Beagle's Hjinx Net series too. You should watch those if you haven't already - He shares his tape archives and they're full of gold. I'd love to see him start a podcast where he chats about camcorders and the scene in general.

Bradley Saunders – Airbags

Ledge technician Bradley Saunders drops an absolutely beast part


Aussie ledge master Bradley Saunders also features on Free Skate Mag this week with a beast part that features some really long grinds and slides.


Bradley’s got a ridiculous ability to hold back tails and other ledge tricks longer than it takes to microwave a Rustlers burger. He has some cool outfits too.

Emie Laurent drops a new part on Thrasher Magazine for Asics Skateboarding


Polar's troll Emile Laurent, drops a new transition-heavy part for Asics Skateboarding on Thrasher.As well as the bowl skating, he hits some really tall ledges in this one. It's as chaotic as always, with Emile cooking it and skating with aggressive style - kind of like T-Funk.

Affected Skatedudes - CUSTOM PRESETS 3

Affected Skateboards with the underground video of the week


This week's underground crew video comes from Affected Skatedudes, a small Austrian crew 🇦🇹.


With heavy Biggie and Baker 3 influence, they start the video off with Living in Pain and a stairset nollie heel where he lands on the beat 😤. The rest of the video is filled with ledge bangers and techy manuals, solidifying its position as underground video of the week.

Nick vonWerssowetz - ULTRAMAN

Nick vonWerssowetz returns with a new project


Nick vonWerssowetz aka LurkNYC has dropped a new 10-minute project. His videos are always worth watching, but it still breaks my heart that he doesn't still film on a VX1000... at least swap to HD 4:3 🥲 


Although I don't like the fact he's filming in 16:9, I still love his filming style and projects. This one's another banger
