Antiz Hellfest Part Two

Antiz may be Europe's most slept on company. They should have Polar level marketshare and respect, but they are ding their thing in France and probably don't give a fuck about recognition. Anyway, the second part of their Hellfest video is rad. After some park skating, things get heavy in the streets which is where skateboarding belongs.

Nine Years Of Mostly Skateboarding

Today is the ninth anniversary of Mostly Skateboarding. A lot has happened over the past nine years. I got a job at The Skateboard Mag through Mostly Skateboarding. I got a writing gig just the other day through the blog too. I worked two crappy office jobs. Been unemployed twice, now being one of those times. I moved a few times, most recently to Portland. I got married. My cat died then we got two more cats. Nine years is a long time. I've made a lot of internet friends through Mostly Skateboarding. That's been the most unexpected thing. 

A lot has changed in the online skate world over those nine years. No one hosts their own videos anymore. Most people stopped making their own websites. HD became commonplace but the VX is still in use. A YouTube channel is good enough for most crews. Everyone is putting footage online making it harder to sift through the growing number of rad videos. When I started, no one was really aggregating skate videos. Now lots of people are, most notably, Hella Clips. Over the past nine years everyone got good. Like really good. With that my standards shifted and I started to get more and more picky. As more videos came, I started finding it harder and harder to find something I wanted to post. I think when it was harder to put videos online only the people who really wanted to where doing it. That barrier to entry saved us all from a lot of time watching shitty videos.  I posted Lem Villemin and Chris Pfanner videos back in 2007. I'm sure jake Donnelley was in that first Sunday video I posted in 2007 as well. I remember a Cory Kennedy video I posted before he hit is big with The Berrics. Danny Brady in 2006, I wish that link wasn't dead. 

I'm not sure what the future holds for Mostly Skateboarding but for now I'll continue posting the videos I find that meet my weird standard of decent skating, cool spots, and good filming. Thanks everyone for checking it out and keeping me inspired. Thanks especially to the guys making rad videos in different places. I started Mostly Skateboarding to bring exposure to scenes outside of the main hubs of skateboarding and I hope to continue doing that or something like that as things evolve. I've been loving Tumblr the past few years. Give Mostly Skateboarding a follow for more skate stuff from my point of view.

Jon Hartley

I hate video parts that start out with a bunch of slams but Jon Hartley won me over once he started landing tricks. 

I know things have been quiet here for a while. I moved to Portland at the beginning of summer and have been spending a lot less time in front of the computer. Instead I've been exploring Portland, hiking, skating, and eating. My wife starts work on Wednesday so I'll probably be spending more time online and regular posting should get back on track.

Some choice quotes...

"who is going to be the female Gino?"

"Our generation will be the first generation where 50 years olds are doing kickflips"

Catch More Mostly Stoke

I know I haven't been posting much here but you can still get some stoke on my Tumblr and Twitter accounts which are updated more. Twitter is where you can find all the latest videos I think are share worthy from the pros to random people doing rad shit on a skateboard. Tumblr is where you will see photos and animated gifs like the one above. Tumblr is my favorite thing to work on these days so keep an eye on that but I'm a little more active on Twitter. Be sure to browse the Tumblr archive. I've been at it for a few years and there is a ton of really great stuff in there.
