Rewind – Mini Video 44 – Wouldn’t You?
Originally posted June 23, 2008. “I think uh skate uh boarding is awesome…”, this is it, the big one! My favorite Mini Video I ever made. A lot to take into consideration. First Max Murphy appearance. Stemper had just moved to California, and faxed in a couple of lines. How did we facilitate this file…

Wiskate Music
Music has always been important to the wiskate.com “vibe/brand”. For over 20 years I’ve painstakingly (read: spent 2.6 seconds) chosen what I thought was the most appropriate track to express the feelings at hand/mise en scene of the clip/video. Above is 100 songs I’ve used in both full length videos and in Mini Videos starting…

World Industries, 5/28/00
Ryan Kenreich, Chad Timtim, and Carlos De Andrade. Carlos went insane! A re-imaging of some earlier wiskate content. As a point of reference, this is what the “demos” page on wiskate looked like 20+ years ago:

Blue Building
Blue Building. My Hi8 tapes that span a time frame of roughly 1998-2000. I tried to not reuse the “famous” clips that I’ve dredged up and posted in various places in the past. I hope you catch a vibe. A lot of it is awful in my favorite way. The best times with my high…

Rewind: Mini Video 43 – GC
“Mega ramp this!!!” The 43rd document. Originally posted April 10, 2008. It appears to feature footage from both the fall of 2007 into spring 2008. Nothing much from the winter in between. I don’t think we were such gluttons for cold air punishment back then. Instead, to pass the winter, we spent our time playing…

Rewind: Mini Video 41 – Paris
Originally posted Nov 2, 2007. I never really actually liked this one that much. I think it’s the song. Have I convinced you to watch it? The chronology is a bit confused as this video features footage filmed that came from before Mini Video 40. Why didn’t I use it in that one? I don’t…

Rewind: Mini Video 40 – Hanging
The 40th Mini Video. The file “date created” is October 1, 2007, which is the same date as the last video, and doesn’t exactly seem correct. But what do I know? It seems as if this one was filmed from around May to September. I think it took sort of a long time because I…

Rewind: Mini Video 39 – Here She Comes
“Hey, y’all wanna kick it with Pizzy?!?!” Originally posted Oct 1, 2007. This one is novel in approach as it was all filmed in one weekend. 9/22 to 9/23 2007. George Bush was still president. I don’t know why I remember this, but this is the same weekend that Brooks Schuping from Louisville was in…

On What Tho?
Filmed by Alex Keck Skaters – Rory Morgan, Noah Benson, Benny Fosco and a bunch of other players.

Mini Video 93 – Qual
It’s always difficult to think of something to say, so I’ll keep it basic. Here’s the 93rd short video created for this website, wiskate.com. (This is how we chill from 93 til…). Like an Adrenalin “Industry Section” from a 411 in 1995 it features an inordinate amount of wallie grabs. I had promised the group…
