A little eye-candy for the Dirt's viewers.
I've noticed that skateboarding often sparks so many outlets for creativity; Especially among those teenage-hearts that are screaming to a find a place to feel at peace. You notice them drawing elaborate pieces on their grip tape with paint markers, or creating stencils and using spray paint to make their own t-shirts; ofcourse then, there are your photography and film admirers who have this passion to take it as far as they can. How far can you go in this town? I'd hope far enough to make it out...and make it in where you've been dreaming to be.
This is Wyatt Woodward. He's a 17 year old Dirt City resident who has been making skate videos with his friends since I've been working at Stone Edge Skatepark. I've noticed the advancement in his skills, quality, equipment, and passion for filming...So I asked to see some of his newest stuff...
Promo to a new video he's currently finishing.
A- What's the hardest part about filming skateboarders?
W- Surroundings, acorns, mulch...rocks.
A- Do you prefer in-town spots or out?
W- Out-of-town spots are legit.
A- Has any of your footage been used anywhere other than your personal interest?
W- Skateboarding.com posted a clip once. It was just Aaron racking, but it was worth it.
A- How long have you been filming for?
W- Seriously? 1 1/2 years. I've been skating longer than I've been filming.
A- Why do you film skateboarders?
W- It's fun. It feels good after you film a nice trick. It feels good to call it yours and say, "I filmed that!"
Thank you Wyatt.
