We saw these kids killing it at The Revival Premier in San Diego and just came across this little video of them getting down. The thing I loved most about these kids is that they were so young. I am guessing they were 16-18 years old. We thought, “Damn, we are over 10 years older than these kids. What we wouldn’t give to be that young with no fear all over again.”

I found this video searching Vimeo. It is not the best riding as you can tell by the title of the edit but the camera they used to film with and the techniques used in the filming make it great to watch.

Here is a cool edit from Chris Layda. He does a weekly edit and tries to do a new trick or craft a new line. It seems like a great idea because it warrants solid progression and dude seems to be solid. Feeling the subtle X-up to barspin… Simple but definitely adds style points.
