    Fully Flared intro - skater stoke

    Fully Flared intro
    I'm not a skater but this is a damn cool preview for a sports action movie. I think the average ski movie buff might appreciate it. Enjoy.

    W... O... W...

    That is pretty much one of the best movie intros every. Skate, ski or otherwise.

    Reminds me of the Jackass intro when they are in the giant shopping cart getting blasted by the cannons... except this actually looks WAY more dangerous. The explosion at the end is GNARLY!

    this sets a precedent... now we need to get some footy of skids hucking over avy control work... I'm sure someone could top it all by hucking the north ridge @ JHMR as they set it off with 40 lbs...
    but I know we can't all stay here forever, so I wanna write my words on the face of today...

    That's a great use of styrofoam.

    Nice!

    It's directed by Spike Jonze of hollywood fame. The "invisible board" sequence from his first skate movie "Yeah Right" was sweet, but this goes way beyond that.

    Son, Yeah, Right! Was very far from being Spike Jonez’ first foray into skateboarding—he cut his teeth making skate vids! Check out the radness of 1996’s Mouse, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iyO-18rvWg.
