Gonna bay the dvd later today, just to see Heath's part. and maybe the Boss extra's
I got like 3 of his parts on my phone right now that I watch on a regular basis before playing for inspiration. - TheBullet
demz, i'm totally with you on everything you said. maybe a lot of skater's aren't "hungry" anymore, but skateboarding is at a point, where improvement is really hard. sure, you can flip in/out of everything and do dub grinds like tpuds, but in the end, it's boring. like falling said, it's like watching machines. maybe i'm just too old, i don't know.
maybe the people doing the videos should think more about how to try to stand out from the rest. the longer/higher/faster-approach is so over-saturated. lately, i enjoy watching european videos like the blueprint "make friends with the color blue" or adidas "diagonal" ten times more. all the us videos have the same spots. no wonder stuff is repetitive if you see in for years straight in every video. the european videos offer a lot more diversity because you don't see the spots in every video.
show us your teeth and show us your tits and show us the scars from the shit that you did.

Ordered the Deluxe Edition. Want Heath's part on my HD tv with easy instant replay.
despite the lukewarm reviews from people I completely respect, I will watch the crap out of this. Too many good skaters.
If someone finds another Heath link . . . post it. My eyes are hungry.

yeah the skating is really amazing, no doubt and when you consider huge stuff this video is definitely one of the bests but...
last night i watched some baker 3 / has a deathwish / this is skateboarding parts to refresh my memory
it looks like some of those dudes are skating the same spots for 7-8 years now and imo this is kinda lame. they are travelling around the world but end up hitting the same spots over and over again...just doing better tricks (sometimes the same trick but cleaner)... you can find good looking stair sets all over the world but no.
it looks like in most indepedent videos and european videos, the skating is not that crazy but its way more creative when it comes to spots and tricks IMO.
I agree its a matter of taste and maybe i m wrong and im still amazed by what they are doing, this is technically amazing...but "artistically" its not that good

i was a little disappoint in heaths section. Skating was sick, dont get me wrong, but it just felt boring and slow, like a credits section more than a skating section.
Personally I was a little disappointed but whatever, songs weren't for me but westgate and the boss killed. I can't stand to look at braydon.

I get it. I finally understand the criticisim. It's the music. Their selection of music is so bland, so repetetive, so uninspired that the skating is significantly down graded because of it. I felt like Tawncowny's part especially suffered because of a pure shit song. Also, Herman's song sucks balls. I mean, jesus, Hippie drone or Hippie Jam music a'la Phish, no. Just NO.
The skating, however, I was not disappointed. Not at all.
Heath's part was short but every trick was Monster.
Herman's part was decidedly lazy. I fee like he's trying to emulate Tom Penny more than anything, but a Nollie Inward Heel over a picnic table from flat is kind of mind blowing.
Suski's part was really quirky, almost eccentric, way different from the rest of the team.
Preston and Provost where the only parts that I probably wont watch again.
Westgate has Penny's ease + Hufnagel's pop + Busenitz speed. I can't get enough of that kid. So good.
Romero's part is so good it's fucked up. I don't know how he skates the way he does. I actually think his part is the most dangerous part I've ever seen. The gap to crooks that he does during the intro section on the double set is jaw dropping. Romero deserves to get paid like a king. No question about it.
Reynolds. In the extras section there's part called "Reynolds and the madness" It shows him doing the same tricks over and over and over and over again until they are perfect. One trick, fakie heel noseslide, he does maybe 30 times. The varial heel he does at Hollywood High, he lands it six or seven times, but keeps sliding into the fence, so he comes back until he lands it, no hands down on the ground, and rolls perfectly past the fence. You have to see it to believe it. It puts his part in perspective. He a obsessive compulsive perfectionist and he can land tricks that anyone else would break themselves over maybe 20 or 30 times.
I could write a small novel about this. Overall, I'm only disappointed in the music. Worst music in any big budget skate video I've ever heard, but the skating will not likely get old any time soon, especially Westgate, Romero, and Reynolds.

I think Herman's lunch table section can be partially explained by a quick tweet and response I had with Nigel Alexander (P Rod's main filmer, brother-in-law, and best friend).
@nigelalexander7 I remember you saying Paul wanted to bring school tables back, years ago. Think Herman might have done it with his part?

@Jest118 Yeah dude he fucked those tables up !!!!!!!

reynolds is still going so big its unbelievable
if one of you got a link for reynolds madness
thanks in advance
once more to set my pov clear. the skateboarding that was shown in this video is technically perfect, bangers all over the place. but i'm sick of this, as i call em "trickrobots" because, it seems that there is no challange in what they're doing. come on if you watch reynolds it is like "ok there is this 20foot drop lets do a fsflip down there" bam, without even blinking, more like its just boring. i like to see the joy in someones faces after landing an amazing trick, but in this one its just, whatever, no big thing... this is not "happy skateboarding" this is plain boredom. for me atleast...
spots, i guess you kinda need to hit some particular spots to keep your reputation. but again what slammy says, stairs are all over the world.
maybe my main thing to complain is the music, it definatly kills a lot of tricks in this one
Skate Till Death (STD) / Doppelgänger Produktion (DP) / Small Town Crime (STC) / Dharma Inc. / Cap Faction ST
after watch 10...
leo out to feebs ender....
BEASTmotherfuckingWARS....
SUPPORT YOUR HOMIES...
Demz. I think that Leo's part should have been the ender. It's suicidal. Reynolds part is astounding, but Leo's part made me scared. I felt like he was going to die on every single trick, and up 9 stair? There are no words for Leo.

"like a gnarly dog on PCP with gold teeth biting your face."
Yeah, I also felt like that, that was high danger skateing. Nearly every trick had some pretty painful slam possibilities, still I think the boss deserved the last part, because those gaps do have some pain potential aswell and his style and perfection is nasty.
Jack I agree with you about the music choice...
I did it all for the cookie
Hey Guys.
I have a stupid Idea.
Let's do a play by play review of Stay Gold and submit it to Thrasher.
We're all experienced with reviews, we do it for each other all the time.
We just have to split up the work, decide who want to review what part, compile it, and submit it.
Maybe there are even a few people here who work in the industry? Not sure about that.
Let me know what you think.

"like a gnarly dog on PCP with gold teeth biting your face."
I take back what I said about Stay Gold..'
Got some coffee this morning and watched it in one sitting..
By the end of the film I realize I had gone through a range of emotions
Scared for the first gnarly hill bombs
Laughed at Jerry Hsu's whole part
and Andrew's bangers had me in a near joyus cry..
Not a hype film but def a good watch.. I enjoyed this shit.
