The Jazzpush Video - Intro and Stephen Figueira

The video that felt like it took forever is finally here. We spent about two years working on this project. The first year was mostly a bust, with terrible filming, shaky lenses, and general confusion. Those vx cameras feel so good to film with but are almost more trouble than it's worth with limited playback and the expense of tapes. I wanted this video to be dedicated to Oscar Gonzalez, which three years ago today was the first time I ever met him at Go Skate Day 2010. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the video and hopefully you will want to go skate afterwards.





Stephen Figueira
Stephen's part seemed to always work out perfectly. He was extremely easy to film, mostly getting tricks within the first 15 minutes. I also think he found one of the best songs in the video. Stephen really embodied what I wanted from this project, which was a solid skater that made me want to go out and have fun! Thanks to Darren Munoz for the additional clips around Long Beach.
