I'm such a nerd when it comes to skateboarding, a REAL NERD! I dedicate lots of hours weekly digging new skaters, watching skate videos and reading about skateboarding!

I know lots of homies don't have that much free time to do this but all of us skateboarders love watching dope videos so I'm starting "Favourite Five", a weekly blog highlighting my personal favourite five skate parts/videos that came out the past week!

1) Wade DesArmo: Thunder Trucks

Wade DesArmo, one of my all time favourite skaters dropped a fresh part to celebrate his new Thunder Trucks Hollow series pro model and god damn this was so fire!

Wade's has a HUGE bag of tricks when it comes to Manuals as well as Grinds/Slides and his super smooth G style makes everything look SO FREAKING GOOD! Music selection was dope too, fits so well with Wade.

Definitely my favourite video of the week and might consider buying his Thunder pro model after this one, dude deserves it!

2) Superior In The Streets with Carlos Ribeiro | Independent Trucks

Truck companies are releasing their fresh pro models at the same time?!? Looks like it! Independent trucks just released Brazilian legend Carlos Ribeiro new pair and delivered some footage to get the skate community hyped...and oh boi, Carlos is on BEAST MODE!

You all know how good Carlos Ribeiro skates switch but some tricks on his new part are on another level! Sw Flip Crooked on a waist high hubba?!? Nollie Flip Crooked down handrails?!?... and Switch Crooked a kink rail?!?

BEAST MORE ON

3) DC SHOES : WILL MARSHALL - METRIC S

Will Marshall launched his new DC Shoes 'Metric S" pro model shoe and released a 2 minutes part to spread the word!

Will is one of those skaters who make street skating look so easy and effortless and this shows in his clips, dude is so relaxed while doing the gnarliest lines, like the one at 0:48. That's how street skating is supposed to be done!

4) Tom Knox for Dickies Skate

I don't think Tom Knox needs any introductions, he's one of the most creative skaters out there, every part he delivers is a blessing from the skate gods and his new Dickies one is no exeption!

Tom spent 3 weeks in Paris and skated both famous spots like "le Dome" as well as some spots I've never seen before. As always his approach to every single spot he skated was unique and his big bag of tricks was unfolded with lots of creativity all around Paris!

Filming as well as editing were on lock, a great watch fam, don't miss it!

5) Daniel Ledermann & Matheus Du Bronks' UNITED Part

This was my favourite skate video of the week for sure for just one simple reason. The vibes!

2 homies travelling around Europe for a month filming each other and delivering a 9 minutes long part?!? Well, couldn't get any better than that and the best part is that they killed it in both tricks and filming!

Daniel Ledermann showed us once again why he's the "gap skateboarding" king in Europe and Matheus Du Bronks proves why he deserves all the support he gets from European companies lately, this guy is smooth as silk!

You have to watch this one, thank me later

That's it for this week everyone! Hope you enjoyed watching those parts/videos! Let me know which one was your favourite as well as link any dope skate videos you digged this week at the comments section bellow, always on the look out for new video parts/videos!
