Super Sk8



Here's a little film I made during a skate road trip with a few friends last summer. Luke Savoy took Mike Abarta, Adam Bertolet, Marcus McDougal, and myself from Santa Barbara, up to SF for the Chili Bowl, out to Grass Valley to spend some time at his parents house and skate the park there, through Truckee and Reno, down to Mammoth, through LA and back to SB. Parks and street spots were skated, beers were drank, and good times were had.

This movie marks my first time filming in super 8 and documents our journey. The filming is rough, not every trick is landed, and there's random shots that probably only make sense to myself and the others on the trip. This wasn't meant to be an epic skate video, rather an accurate portrayal of our trip. I hope you enjoy it and look forward to some more of my super 8 skate videos in the near future.
