LOVE IT DUDE… Your esk8 videos always make me feel like I am watching the walking dead, your washed out colours and deserted locations gives a very eerie post-apocalyptic feel, especially considering you guys are decked out in some rugged & warm clothing, wearing leather gloves & jackets with camo patterns, all wearing head gear and various battle ready attire!.. It’s like you guys are a special force of esk8 riding zombie killers out looking for your next horde of undead to slice up… you should attach your remote controllers to samurai swords!

Actually, this would make a cool b grade movie…

I vote for a zombie to appear in next video!

Lol yeah, there’s definitely parts of Michigan that look post apocalyptic for sure. The Walking Dead totally needs an ESK8 character :slight_smile: Although it’s been warming up, today dropped down to about 35 degrees so all the gear is a necessity and I usually bring some extra helmets, pads, gloves etc. in case anyone needs it. This is the first time we rode with 5 boards and it was really REALLY fun. We’re trying to grow the movement out here! :smile:

So my buddy just got a Sony A7S II, probably the best mirrorless camera out for low light scenes so we decided to shoot some footage in a parking lot. The A7SII was mounted on a DJI Ronin M and we also got some fisheye shots with the Xiaomi Yi + Came TV Action Gimbal.

Pretty cool effect with the low light and sparks. All your videos leave me itching to ride. I had never tried the whole crouching tiger style of riding till I saw your videos, but I finally tried it today, and it felt awesome! Guess I never really had the hills or momentum to try crouching without having to immediately push again. 'Lekricity’s the best!

Btw, what kind of protective gear are you rocking?

Yeah I’m still trying to figure out different techniques of riding but with high speed carving I seem to get into a crouching position by instinct. The protective gear that I wear is a Bern Brenwood Helmet, Sector 9 elbow and knee pads, Sector 9 Boxer II sliding gloves, leather joggers and sometimes a neoprene/fleece scarf.

This is for @longhairedboy Lol…this is awesome
