    YT is pretty much the future of skate media unless some major change occurs, it just makes sense because it’s so widely accessible. It’s the new magazine rack. I do see a difference between skaters making KZread videos and KZreadrs making skateboarding videos, but at this point I’m just glad that we all have easy access to skateboarding and don’t have to hunt down physical media to get a glimpse of what’s happening or to reminisce on old times.

    I think not speaking on contest for this documentary was a missed opportunity. As the ability to enter contests is a big deciding factor on where a skater is classified in their "career" if they are pursuing skateboarding as such, being able to enter a pro contest is a big deal, or to me it is. Revive stuff, I see that as merch.. social media merchandise, but then again..maybe it's all merch now? Seeing as their riders don't really take part in the big overall story of skateboarding, ie they miss the big magazines and contest coverage opportunities... And that's really my only issue with a brand like revive... None of their guys are involved with contests OR big skateboarding media, some of them have been on that side (John Hill for instance) but none of them do that currently, no representation in the magazines that are left, or any other core source of skateboarding media, and none of them are involved in core skateboarding contests like Tampa pro. I mean yeah they stay in their lane.... Which is good for business I guess, but I'd like to see them branch out and get more involved with the rest of skateboarding, I find it weird that they are completely in the lane of social media skateboarding and nowhere else. granted yes...that's where majority of skateboarding exists now regardless, that's the way of the world now. Yeah, I want to see one of their riders skate Tampa pro or whatever...from outside perspective it seems their guys shy away from contests like many "core" pro skaters do. But on whatever team, you'll have people that ARE into contests... None of them in revive are, or maybe they aren't invited? Idk. Can a skater like John Hill, who's pro for revive, register for Tampa pro if he wanted to? Or is he not allowed because he's on a brand built off of social media, or some other reason? Regardless, there is something to be said about the relevancy between the ability to enter pro contests, and starting a company and putting people on and deeming them pro skaters. To me it's more than just a following and name on a board. That's why I appreciate contests as much as I do... regardless if it's pro or am or whatever. Its a moment to put some order to the chaos of skateboarding and really puts things into perspective. As much as like video parts, we know things take time to make... In a contest, it's what do you have RIGHT NOW, in this moment in time... you got that? You win. It's a big deal... That performance under pressure on a big stage is a big deal. So if a skater can not register for pro contest if they want to, I can't in good conscious consider them pro.

  • @louierios22

    You're not professional just for a name on a board. The skate community has to somewhat agree that you deserve it or it's just meaningless. Also why did Redbull decide to have so many influencers and no actual core pros in these interviews? That creates (within this video) an inaccurate view of the professionalism of skateboarding. Skate culture is diverse theres good and bad people within it but most just want to feel the space is respected and taken somewhat seriously. And all this only applies to pros, as well as people who claim to be or want to be pro and those who wish to be accepted by the skate community. No one cares about a non-pros style, trick selection, and choice in gear, if you aren't trying to be pro you do as you please.

    Red Bull, you guys have been putting out some awesome content and I'm always interested to know what you are up to, but this segment is not good, it has some vulgar language and a sexually immoral scene that can bring the way of error into the hearts of husbands and wives, adulterous thoughts that separate families and break hearts. I urge you to edit out such things in order to maintain your excellence and productivity. "Wisdom is not for fools." "Can you teach a fool to be wise? No, the wise do not teach proverbs for fools to repeat them." "He who loves folly will not love wisdom and will remain foolish, indubitably, the fruit of his deeds will bring only destruction." The righteous people who repeat such divine wisdom have laid before us a path in life that leads to a productive and fruitful life, and we will be blessed as a race, avoiding the fate of the Nazi regime and of similar fools, if we choose to be wise over being a fool. I will have prayed to God for you to truly understand what is being said here and indubitably, all of you will be blessed according to God's will. Peace to you
