Think Skaters are Slackers?

Give up your preconceived ideas. These guys are techy enough to eliminate their boards from this video. It’s amazing.
What else might you not know about skaters?
Did you know that more kids skateboard than every other sport in the US?

That’s pretty cool, but it looks more like they shot everything against a green screen and added the backgrounds in. The skaters just look out of place.
At about :45 in, the skaters look too far off the ground.

That may be for certain parts. I’m not sure. I suspect that they painted their boards green and washed them out that way. I would find it hard to believe that the rail sliding shots were sans rails.
But the point is, that they did some pretty interesting video editing. That says something about their abilities that runs up against many folks’ preconceived notions about skaters, I think.

I know that I have many in my church and I need to reach them.
