HUGO MAILLARD

I saw this video the other week and frantically tried to find it on a player that would allow me to post it on the blog but couldn't. Good thing someone else decided to put it up- this guy rips! He's got really great style, and it's funny because if you look at his older parts he's skating giant stairs and handrails. I like the urban-esque transition he made a lot more.

MATT MILITANO

WOW! If you want to see some destruction over and over play Crewman Matt Militano's Fully Flaccid part a hundred times. INSANITY! Definitely got me excited to skate, although I still can't yet. That's only the beginning of Matt's kill streak, he'll be having a full part in Mandible Claw 3 too! 

ONE IN A MANDIBLE PART 3

Most of you may have already seen this. Typically the moment anything gets put up from Colin I try to get it on the blog, but I got lost in time. Wouldn't hurt to watch it again though, good skating and music. It appears the kids experience out there wasn't as bad as it was portrayed in the real OIAM, it seems like two completely different trips. Glad to know their time out there looks like it was somewhat worth it.

LENZ - FILMER APPRECIATION #2

Following the Koichiro Uehara post along with the Far East Skate Network post awhile back, Shinpei Ueno (filmer of the following) filmed and edited the Japanese video below called LENZ. I can honestly admit it's the funnest skate video to watch that I've ever seen in my life. It's one hour jam-packed with inconceivable annihilation. Shinpei captures every element of each spot with his spectacular fisheye filming and innovating close-up angles - he's easily one the the greatest filmers of all time. It's one of the longest videos I've seen and I bet it took less than a year to film it. I say that because it's evident of all the fun they're having, and seems like they just go out everyday/night with no intention of "doing this specific trick at this spot"- they'll skate anything and everything, which Shinpei's filming/editing reveals that sole purpose throughout the video. Even so, I don't think it is his reasoning to make that the theme of the video, these guys just have fun all the time! 


Jimmy Lannon is taking part in Magenta's tour to Japan in welcoming Koichiro Uehara to their team tomorrow and skating with some of the guys in LENZ. I'm sure we can expect to see another amazing Magenta capsule soon from their trip out there. Also, Shinpei and the Japanese dudes are working on LENZ II so get ready for another mind-boggling video and keep an eye out for the Magenta team clips! 

KOICHIRO UEHARA

Another piece to fit Magenta's mind-puzzling team. Incredible.

ONE IN A MANDIBLE PART 2

The second of One In A Mandible is even better than the first. They look like they had a lot of fun! Now I'm off to start working on some new stuff that you should be pleased with. Oh and our site is almost done and will be live very soon!

ONE IN A MANDIBLE

I think you all can agree that it's safe to say that you can always rely on Mandible Claw, aka Colin Read. Watching this edit, of what the contest should've been about, is finally helping me forget about that monstrosity of shit Ride Channel put together. This episode is only of the first 2 days! Where was all of this good skating in the other episodes? Stay tuned for these because they're packed with raw skateboarding.
