Valencia Report Transworld Skateboarding Video

How can a nearly 10 minute video inspire you to skate?

Well, here is a report from Valencia, Spain (unless it's California, but highly doubtful), and the riders rip. If you're going to watch one skateboarding video today, this is the one that you want to check out, no doubt.

Daze OSL May HD Skateboarding Video

I don't know a lot about this one, all that I do know is that it's coming straight out of Oslo, and it features the following skateboarders:

 Marcus Vik, Aleksander Østreng, Kevin Bækkel, Martin Dammen, Marcus Shaw, Jonathan Struksnæs, Thomas Berget, Gabriel Bjørsvik, Daniel Pedersen, Thomas Sandli, Vi Duc Truong

You gotta love how skateboarding is international. This is one hell of an edit, inspirational even.

UBG #1 Montage #1 Skateboarding Video - Straight Out of Melbourne Australia

UBG #1 Montage #1 Skateboarding Video

Australia has been a hot bed for street skateboarding for some time. With this montage coming from UBG, you'll find that these independent skaters from Melbourne are ripping it up. I wish I had a plane ticket, I'd be there right now. This is some sick stuff, great inspiration.

Jaakko Ojanen Welcome To Element Europe Video HD

Jaakko Ojanen Welcome Part For Element Skateboards Europe HD Video 

If you have not been hearing a lot from Element, it's most likely because they aren't getting published by the bigwigs of Youtube skateboarding. Or perhaps you already did see this, but who knows. Element Skateboards presents a new team rider for their European team, and this part is quite the stunner. Check it out after the jump.

The Official Unofficial Barcelona HD Video

Krooked Went To Spain, and You Didn't

The Krooked Skateboards crew were flown into Barcelona for some amazing skateboarding, and tapas. I'm sure the tapas were great, but here you go, you bastards, an edit of the Barcelona trip that Krooked was on. If you're a fan, buy Krooked boards here, and if you're not, click below to see the video in all of its HD glory, then hit the streets because it's warm outside!

Finishing Lines in West Africa – Skateboarding In Africa with Michael Mackrodt Video

Skateboarding In Western Africa 

What do you think about when you consider Western Africa? For me, I’m reminded of the missionaries I met that were in the Gambia and Sierra Leone. They were setting up churches and orphanages. They even found a baby in the bushes, abandoned by the parents. It was sad. When they made it back to the United States, they didn’t seem to fit in. They wanted to go back, and that’s my only memory of them. Skateboarding and West Africa is not what I immediately think about when discussing western Africa, but now that I’ve seen “Finishing Lines” I’m thinking that it’s an untapped resource for skateboarding glory.

West Africa Is A Skateboarding Mecca

Skateboarders are interesting in that they look at the streets with a new light. West Africa may be a mecca in regards to untapped resources for concrete and more. In the video “Finishing Lines” Michael Mackrodt takes you on a journey that makes the search for skating in the streets come alive in an all new way. It’s fascinating, to say the least. This changes everything for those that are thinking about pushing and kicking through the spots that are untapped in this locale.

Michael Mackrodt Pushes Through Trick After Trick

Mackrodt’s pushes through tricks, and it’s great to see. Amidst all the skate videos that are coming out, this is the most eclectic in my view. Well, not as isolating as Jordan Sanchez’s Dumpster Part, but it’s still very good. What I like most about this, is that the exotic location that you don’t always see in skateboarding. Even though there are charities that go there, and there are some people trying to fund African skateboarding, you don’t always see new updates from there. This is a great video if you ask me.

Give Back To Skateboarders In Need In Africa 

Alright, I’ve led in to this way too much. But while I was looking through some ideas, I ran into Skate 4 Africa. This is a charity that wants to bring skateboards to Africa, and after seeing this video, I want to donate and spread the message about them. So, check out this video, get hyped, and then check out the Skate 4 Africa website after you buy some boards and send them over to them. Seriously, this is amazing, and you can support skaters directly!

GX1000: Taiwan HD Skateboarding HD Video - Thrasher Magazine

Gx1000 Hits Taiwan 

Thrasher Magazine just put up the latest rundown from the GX1000 series of skateboarding videos. They were previously in Japan. This time around they are in Taiwan. The thing is, I don't know much about GX1000 or the brand they are reppin. I did manage to find a Tumblr page, and a Big Cartel page for merch. Other than that, I don't know much about the company, brand, or the video. Well, that's not completely true, I know that some of the riders include: Jake Johnson, Brian Delatorre, Al Davis, Stevie Perez, Ben Gore, and Yonnie Cruz. So there, at least now you know some of the riders are on Traffic, and what not. Either way, check this mess out after the jump.
