Lucas Puig Instamix: Beach Curbs πŸ“ΌΒ πŸŒ€οΏΌ

I’ve been a fan of Lucas’ skating for years, from watching him do amazing ledge/manual tricks, to now watching him do beautiful slappy’s all the time, it’s always special. During his recent trip stateside, he seemed to be skating the beach curbs everyday, and making the most of it. The mix of creativity along with incredible control led to some dope combos from Lucas on these double sided curbs. Over the past month or so that Lucas was in LA, I was excited day in and day out to see what he would post, and now that his trip has … Continue reading Lucas Puig Instamix: Beach Curbs πŸ“ΌΒ πŸŒ€οΏΌ

Hjalte Halberg Instamix πŸ“Ό πŸŒ€

I’m back with another Instamix, this time it’s Hjalte Halberg. With his tasteful trick selection, high speed approach, and ability to make it all look fun, I dug deep into his Instagram to pick some of my favorite clips.

I was first introduced to Hjalte’s skating years back in a Polar video, but I first found myself obsessing over the way he skates in the “Looks OK to Me” video where he shares a part with Bobby Worrest. I’ve made it clear that I’m a fan of that video, and from that point on, I’ve clicked on anything with Hjalte’s name on it, from the Nike x Soulland edits, to Ben Chadourne’s beautiful web clips like “Firesides”, and giving his Bunt a listen, a couple times.

With Hjalte footage, I’m always left wanting more. In the best way, because his skating makes me want to skate. His balance of hard to do ledge tricks, speed, and simplicity is what I love. As I’ve touched on before, sometimes Instagram clips can convey this sense of “fun” better than a video part, the Dancer IG clips are a great example of this, as it always seems that Hjalte, Ville and their crew are having a great time, and just happen to be do amazing tricks on their skateboards.

Here are some of my favorite IG clips of Hjalte mixed together –

Jake Hayes Instamix & Loops πŸ“ΌπŸŒ€

My list of favorite skateboarders could go on forever. About every week or so I have a skateboarder that I’m extra hyped on, it could be someone I’ve been a fan of for years or someone I just saw for the first time. Regardless, I always do the same thing, watch this person’s video parts, read their interviews, and lurk through their Instagram. Well, this past week it’s been Jake Hayes. Jake is someone I’ve been familiar with for years, but this week I’ve taken a deep dive into his footage, just appreciating his simple trick selection, unbelievable pop, and … Continue reading Jake Hayes Instamix & Loops πŸ“ΌπŸŒ€

Flo Mirtain Instamix & Loops πŸ“ΌπŸŒ€

As I mentioned in the most recent What’s Loopin’, I’ve been on a HΓ©las kick recently. Rewatching all the raw footage from Fellas reminded me how dope Flo’s skating is. Just like that, I was in a new rabbit hole, watching every Flo clip i could find. In an attempt to remind you how great these clips are, and give them a longer life span than just one day, I tossed some of my favorites from Flo’s IG together to make this mix – The debate of Instagram clips vs video parts could go on forever, but my take is … Continue reading Flo Mirtain Instamix & Loops πŸ“ΌπŸŒ€
