This little video has taken three years to get here. Newsense skateboards was Kory Kroll and Kris Kroll's Los Osos based skate company. They made boards, shirts, stickers, and videos. Central Coast Chaos was their first video effort, filled with lo-fi tape deck editing. The formats were all completely different from camera to camera so it's a miracle this thing even got done. Probably the trick with the most hype was Mike Salmon's Slo High 17 stair attempt. Gotta love the basketball shorts! After this video it seemed like everyone in Los Osos and Morro Bay had a Newsense board and were laughing at the pink man on the unicycle. As time went on though, the videos slowly disappeared. I thought I had the last existing copy until I lent it out and it got ate up by a VCR. With the help of Kory Kroll (who didn't have the video himself) we tracked down what I believe is the absolute last copy. The video was an ultimate inspiration for the 14 year old me who couldn't comprehend how they edited it themselves. It's taken a long time to get here, but it was well worth it.
