I ever sk8 in Indonesia and the sk8trs there are the most humble being especially when they have reach their level of sk8ting..not much of bitching and they dedicate themselves to their sponsors..here in Singapore its sad to say that sk8trs here asking too much and not APRECIATE wat they have..no dedication to their sponsors and never promote their local brands for their sponsors and complaining too much..In Indo its all DIY shut up & sk8 for better living..tats wat they want to make Sk8boarding a better future for Indonesia..Viva la Indo..
this video was realllllllllly good. i mean realllly good.
to Anonymous- it sounds like you don't think very highly of Singaporean skateboarders lol.
I agree that Indo skaters appear to be more motivated to film and do stuff with skating like setting up their own brands.
But Indo is much bigger market, more people more money, so more sponsors, got quiksilver,Converse, billabong, Volcom, Oakley so many big brand that skaters can get sponsored by.
In Singapore it's harder to get sponsored by these big brands cause our market so small. And Singapore companies here really suck, they don't even want to sponsor us a few t-shirt or shoes. It's a joke.
But back to the point - i loved this video . Looks like they put a lot of effort. I think i saw 5 filmers? and filmed for almost a year.. that's dedication and team work.
TheBadger of ASIA
all of the skaters is my fav. viva la skateboarding. viva la local brand..!!
keep up the good work !!
