Chomp On This!
grade:3/10

price: about
25$
if you want to see crappy skating, serious use of the 'f' word, boards breaking, and good pro's sucking, get this video! for 24.95, this is definately not worth your money. although i looked more carefully and i found that the reason it sucks is that most of the people on the vid are famous skate photographers instead of famous skaters (ex. ryan gee, atiba and ato jefferson, etc., etc.). but theres also jamie thomas, eric koston, both are famous, and parts suck more than their other videos. there were some cool parts though, like the pacman theme, and a few funny parts. listen to jason dill when he starts talking about 'big waves' veeeery carefully and you'll be laughing for a good hour or too.
  in bloom. grade:7/10 in bloom. price: 20-25$, grade 7/10

if you want to spend (although there's a sale going on at skateboarding.com for 12.50!)20-25$ on this video from transworld, fine with me. altough it's not an insanely good video, and slightly expensive, it provides good entertainment and get's you pumped. it includes a intro duction to the skaters by dustin dollin, eric koston, jamie thomas, andrew reynolds, john cardiel, and kareem cambell. it also has my favorite skater (tony trujillo), and a few of my other favs (paul roudrigez). not everything is crazy, but there's definately some good ones for the enders (paul roudrigez's switch heelflip down the 13 or 14 step [oh crap, i just ruined it for you!]). the montage skating is cool, and the editing is real nice. overall, if you have a little extra money, this is a good skating video.

  Yeah, Right!, price: i forget, grade: 10/10 This is probably on my top ten list of skating vids. it has some of Keenan Milton's first an last footage, got voted 'Video Of The Year' by transworld magazine, has so many sections with crazy editing and laughs that i can't remember them, and, best of all, it's over an hour long. you've probably seen Owen Wilson before in a movie before, but did you know he can land bluntslides down large handrails first try? i highly recommend this video.

  The DC video, price: around the same price as Chomp on This, score: 9/10 The DC video, price: around the same price as Chomp on This, score: 9/10

let's say you got 25 bucks from a relative for christmas, and you want to buy a skate vid with it. hmmm, chomp on this, or The DC video? no matter what, even if someone threatens to set 50 live French Vampire Monkeys into your house and lock all the door from the outside in a special way so that you cant get out if you don't, DO NOT GET CHOMP ON THIS! the DC video is the best video up to date! it has Stevie williams, colin mckay (i never knew how to spell his last name), danny way, and a bunch of other cool people that i cant name cause i forget their names. skating ranges from huge gaps to semitech (not as tech as 'Yeah, Right').
So if your ever faced with the problem faced above, buy The DC Video, and then go slap Ryan Gee in the face really hard for me because he's an idiot and i'm better at skating than him even though he's in the vid and got thousands for it!
