    Really good for a first solo man you killed it. filming was a little jumpy in some clips but im no filming expert either so dont take it personally.
    Song worked great with the skateing there was a really chill vibe durring th whole thing.
    Im looking foward to the next one dude

    I like this new kid Phobia. The quality for that video was way above average. I checked your channel and it looks super clean as well. You really need to work on your filming and trick choice.
    Filming comes first. Learn how to film. Watch videos here with good filming... and learn.

    If you stick around I think you'll be a notable member.

    I know you're not asking me but i would say realistic tricks in a more sensible order I guess you could say. But only for a few of your tricks. DOn't go changing things up just based on what I said
    May I ask how do you get such good quality?

    yeah i get what you mean, thanks.

    and i have a flv to wmv converter that renders the clips to 1980x1080 then i render the final project to 720x480
    so it makes the quality really nice

    i think your trick choice is fine. All the lines seemed well thought out and the tricks looked legit. Maybe Marco has a more specific trick that I missed though.

    I really enjoyed this. Good editing, the song fits really well. Everything was chill.

    Just a couple of places where the camera was a little jumpy especially when you were swinging it around the skater in a line. For realistic filming, if that is what you are going for, is mostly about making sure that someone could film that way while on a skateboard. Ask yourself this: can the filmer zoom this fast, move this fast and get over or under that obstacle?

    I think your filming was really great in that sense, to improve I'd say throw in some long lens shots as well to mix it up.

    Trick selection is very personal and also the inherit style you carry. Don't go around changing it for somebody else. All your tricks looked legit. In terms of doing tricks in an order that makes sense I guess my tip would be to increase the difficulty with time if you are hitting the same spot so you don't start out with tre flips and lazer flips but with shuvs and kickflips instead and then show harder tricks.

    I watched this after reading all of the comments, and I gotta say, I wouldn't worry about changing a thing. Trick selection was spot on, and everything was very well executed. Filming was a little too clean for my taste but that's personal opinion. Your camera work is very smooth, nothin' wrong with that. Keep it up man.

    Nice vid dude very nicely done.

    Damn you for using this song though! I was midway through editing a vid to it , oh well I'll switch up and use Hannah instead lol.

    I love Freelance Whales. I used "Generator 1st floor" and "Generator 2nd Floor" on two vid before.
