I noticed no one ever skates the DIY Park. Probably cause its vert, and no one really skates vert much. That and its one of the hardest parks to skate in the entire skate series. So I thought it would be awesome to make a community collab there.

Featuring: M.seven, Mark_The_Sith, Valleyboy, Luftwaffe, Ferf, Noodlezer, Briden,RastaRipss, Ladd279,Twig4233 and Cerebus

I was honestly blown away by all the amazing footy these guys sent me. The vid really has a unique look due to my edit style and the attitude of the DIY park AND the type of skating you have to do at the DIY park.

lurkin yt pays off,just finished watching this beauty..copy paste time :D

fuckin amazing!!best vid i've seen in a long time.

i feel like the dude that came to skate,did a few tricks,then got wasted..lol

honored to be in a vid with so many rippers

4:33,proof is in the pudding

haha yah. your still not as bad as drunkinate tho.

Everyone killed it! Video was well edited and i was surprised by many tricks since the diy is kinda hard to skate...
Loved luftwaffe's grind where he hits the bottles


Intermission was sick!

And the gold medal of vert fakeskating goes to...

Luft. Fucking killed it.

The only thing that made it hard to watch was the music. Very ill-fitting for skating. Too much butt-rock, not enough hesh.

whatever music you like will fit the video in your own eyes. yah there is a "skater" type of music but in vids people use rap, metal, rock, punk, hispter rock whatever.

everyone has differnet tastes. for me, iron maiden, manowar and alice in chains are classic.

i have no idea what hesh means....

Well not that Alice in Chains is a bad band, skating just sort of needs a less grungy beat so there's something to sync the edit to. It makes the eyes and ears happy.

You don't know what hesh means? Talk to Luft about that one haha

meh. I edit to plenty of beat hits.

And I really only see beat synce on maybe 1 in 5 vidoes. Most dont bother to do it.

And ill be sure to ask Luft lol


vimeo link coming soon for germans

Little quick review:

Intro: was sick was coughs off guard when music changed lol even rewinded it to make sure it didnt mess up haha
Valley,m7: no better way to start this vid with 2 heavy rippers and 2 people that strive to keep community alive! A lot of sick clips

Cerebeast: fuckn murdered it as usual, love the way you film vert and clips in general!180 method wallie so sick
Falling down: haha sick
Briden: dope dude, really nice clips in there. Revert line was my favorite from you
Rasta: very smooth man! Always enjoy seeing you in a vid

Luft: a lot of crazy stuff, def enjoyed it. When you knocked the bottle I gasped inside lol

Nice edit ayreon!

ahha thanks man


I wasn't sure if you would be P.O'd for being the in goofy intermission. I got all the clips in songs and couldnt fit you in. But u didnt have that many clips and it turned out fine. I also figured ur better off by yourself cause you skated slow like you always do and did all street skating at a vert park. lol


ahha just bustin ur chops, your clips and style is sick man.

Everyone killed this. Holy shit was this fun to watch. Also the Intermission made me laugh way harder than I should have.
that is all.

Haha no prob, actually liked being the transition guy in this. Very creative man also laughed when all those random numbers went after my name lol

haha yah I threw in a lot of spurr of the moment jokes.


The intermission thing just kind of happened. lol.

ahha yah same.

...oh no, blocked in germany and vimeo link doesnt work. really would love to watch this!

Great edit job, its 99.9% perfect (0.1% = my nickname not written correctly :p)

(ps: dont take it seriously, i really dont care about it since its already "a nick of a nick" ) call me Noodlez :)

That was one of the best vids I've seen, makes me want to try and skate the DIY Spot. Anyway, I can't pick a favorite but you all did a superb job.

Oh and nice edit, Ayreon. Can't forget about the man that started the vid idea fro DIY :)

It has always been my name since i play skate ^^

btw, im up for anything if you got another collab idea ("less famous spot" again or not)

yah I totally want to do one since I cant get my own footy. I'll think on it.

I've seen shorter full lengths! Incredible amount of ripping in here and Ayreon MAD props to you for the edit. I always appreciate a video that's well done but doesn't take itself too seriously. More than anything though, this makes me want to go back to DIY, such a mix of styles in here. Loved Ladd's bit the most but honestly everyone killed it hard. Best slam section since Welcome to Hell!

Have to agree with Fecal in that the music definitely did not match the clips (song is much much faster than the majority of the clips).

Apart from that though, this was some of the rawest vert skating I've ever seen! I may suck at vert skating but that certainly doesn't mean I can't appreciate the heavy hitters taking a dump all over this place.

Well done guys and props as well to you Ayreon for editing such a long vid.

the only song I feel felt faster is the last alice in chains one because I had the tricks spaced out more and that was only for the beginning. I was running low on footy and wanted them to fit the song. But near the end i was worried luft had to many clips for the rest of the song. So they got close together. Plus luft's skakng is fast.

The first two songs have time between clips slower during the verses, but the time reduced a lot during the faster chours.

And I looked up hesh. It's like...to not give a fuck or something? Meh, for this vid I went with a less serious fun tone.

Hesh pretty much associates with hardcore and aggressive extreme sports communities, although it can be used in looser terms by some as a synonymous term for "Awesome." :V
Hesh originates from the term "Hessian," pronounced Hesh-in, which were 18th century German soldiers hired by Britain, but was used as a negative slang term for the Metal culture kids in the 70s through the 90s. Similarly to Punk culture, they took the negative slang term around and turned into a positive for themselves. Of course, I'm being way too far in depth with this stuff.

tl;dr - Hesh = Hardcore, Aggressive, Badass. Not giving a fuck kinda comes along with it :P
Often associated with Metal, Punk, Grunge, and other harder forms of Rock

ahah cool.

I would say the 2nd song worked alot better than the first.

lol well the first one had to be there. I had that falling down idea. I thought it was fine anyways.

mmmh, tell me guys...

Ok, you all have competition in your blood, etc...

But don't you think that criticizing music choice on this one, which is great no matter what, is a bit of overacting? I dont like this heavy metal style that much, but it really didnt make the vid unwatchable or something...Hence it shouldnt even be a discutable topic...

Do you send letters to Thrasher or 411VM when you disapprove their music choices?

Peace.

Nobody is being competitive around here; we are simply offering feedback to a person who shares their work in a public forum. When I watch irl vids on Youtube (like the new JART video for example), the comments below can both praise the skating involved (the real point) while disapproving of some songs used. I think most people on here have made videos with songs that didn't work/ppl didn't like so I'm not sure why the uproar.

If you'd prefer of course that we don't comment, then kindly let us know. Ayreon, again, enjoyed the skating in this immensely.

sick vid ayreon, saw this yesterday, great stuff.

thanks man

haha,all this makes me think about that cap vid i did a few months ago.
just about every comment was about the music.
i say who cares,half the time i watch vids i don't even have the sound on.i just care about the skating

ayh, usually when theres rap in a vid I dont say anything. Unless it was particularly bad. Even then I dont put a lot of weight on the comment. I just say I didnt like the song, but the vid was still great. (assuming the skating and filming where good)

Great vid Ayreon! Everyone ripped. Nice to see a good vert video edited to some rock.

Not sure if it's a problem on my side but it feels like the video is running at around 20 fps for me even though the sound is fine. Did you have any trouble with the rendering? Seems like no one else noticed it.

should be fine. I export with the youtube preset.

you watch off vimeo?

fucking vimeo has a per week MB upload limit of 500. I had to compress the vid to upload it. it actually looks crappier on vimeo

Great sesh and sweet edit man!

Excellence by all.

The editing in this is bad ass, great work all around Ayreon. Im stoked to have been apart of it! thanks man

....now it worked! really liked the edit and enjoyed the video a lot. some parts i liked a little more than others but overall a good watch for sure. luftwaffe's footy well deserved being the last part i think!

reminds me, that i should go back to that diy park again sometime. fun place to skate!

haha,that clip was so random but Ay deff put it to good use

Some gems in this to say the least.
Whoever did that grab nosegrind over the doorhole, bridens huge bs 360 transfer with perfect rotation, the rasta dude's part was my favourite. Sick spot and trick selection. Luftwaffe was gnarly as hell too, mctwist over the pipe and alley oop bs boneless!
Good job areyon, beast project.

Luft pulled his dick out....
I enjoyed the whole thing...
Good watch..

haah yah. Like I'm saying, just another way how this vid just came together so well. That clip seems like we planned on it. Like you knew i was gonna do the falling down thing. but it just worked out.
