Most of times people are filming the impeccable, fun part of skating, full of breathtaking footage, stunning jumps, elevation over impossible obstacles etc. As skateism.com says: “it’s not always butter and pancakes”. There’s another side of skating which involves a lot of frustration, bad luck, broken boards and sometimes bones. Failure is a reality as well, but most of time it is exactly the motivation a good skater needs to overcome himself through hard work and persistence. A great video, indeed.
Enjoy our clumsiness!
