symirroretry (full length documentary film)!

before you watch this, check out the trailer, here! thanks!

five entities established in skateboarding share concepts of individuality, limitation, and knowledge learned from a constant evolving culture. a culture eternally cycling, dying and rebirthing. forced down dead end pathways by powerful business entities. manipulated of progression through decensitized internet labyrinths. two symmetrical beings, parallel in thought, know only that of which is seen. controlled by a vivid entity yet handicapped by a lack of capacity of free thought and expression. no ambition? no spirit and fulfillment? paintings of inner reflection. still, immovable and wondering; “what is my love and passion?” a documentary expressing the ‘artist’ journey of becoming. a parallel narrative supporting sentiment of fighting against conformity. a contribution of thought challenging comprehension and expansion. the story of symmetrical mirrors, formed as one entity.

a film by andrew lovgren.

cast: greg hunt, chris mulhern & chris fireoved, paul fish, arto saari, pontus alv, sammy covert, grant puckett and austin cosler.

archival footages courtesy of pontus alv & chris mulhern.

special thanks to jade & per lovgren, sammy covert, kickstarter pledgers, liquid 9, stage port kc and jason cantu.

flip ’3′!

fukkin’ awesome!!! hells yeah!!! \m/

years ago, flip skateboards added some really young rippers to their team with louie lopez and curren caples to plant the seeds for tomorrow’s flip team. well, tomorrow is now and the boys are all grown up. along with alec majerus, who just recently joined louie and curren in the pro ranks, the trio filmed together for flip’s latest video offering simply titled "3". directed and filmed by arto saari with the help of josh zucker and others over only a few months, this video is just a glimpse into how these three newest pros on the flip roster can carry the torch for the second generation of flip.
