Blind Skateboards Video Days
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 сер 2024
- Video Days is a skateboarding video by Blind Skateboards released in 1991. It is considered one of the most influential skate videos, as director Spike Jonze's format has continued to be arguably its definitive template.
Video Days is the first movie/video directed by Spike Jonze and stars Mark Gonzales, Rudy Johnson, Jason Lee, Guy Mariano and Jordan Richter. Legendary professional skateboarder Danny Way was briefly on Blind Skateboards from 1990-1991 and shot some footage for Video Days. However, he soon quit Blind, returning to his original team H-Street Skateboards and his footage for Video Days was omitted. A brief shot of Way can be seen during Mark Gonzales' part in this video.

How weird is it that Spike Jonze went from skateboarding videos to acclaimed arthouse director.
A Lonely Weeaboo and Jason Lee went on to have his own Family Hour mainstream TV show for so many seasons lol
When you're cool, you're cool man.
Its not really weird in any way.
Not at all
The early 90s was a strange place.
cannot tell u how many times me n the crew watched this on vhs back in the day. unbelievably mandatory! highly influential!
Legit one of the coolest skate videos from the 90s
One of the best skateboard films ever made!
*The* best skateboard video ever made
Video Daze, Love Child, and Questionable are the trinity of skate videos.

What a piece of art. My skate times...
Always pumped after watching this.
Then reality kicks in and I'm flat on my ass.
Keep practicing
The part of Gonzo its probably one of the greatest in the history of skateboarding. Monumental shit.
Pure performance art. Truly spectacular.
Is that a young Earl Hickey?? Wow!! lol!
Thank You Spike!
ahh 1991! big pants, 35mm wheels and 9" Indy's!!!! they were the video days!
This is still my happy place
Guy's 360 shuv fs lipslide on a handrail in '91 is pretty bonkers. Best video ever.
A true classic.

Good for you Jason Lee, i should have stuck with skateboarding as a career.
All these guys became successful
Alvin would’ve been proud to see Dave like this
Awesome! Thanks for posting!

Some of these skate spots look like the ones that Natas Kaupas skated
Holy shit I never knew Jason Lee skated! I feel so ignorant. When I saw the thumbnail I thought "Hmm, that guy looks like Earl Hickey"

Wun3rd shut up you hipster
Some charge-coupled device.
What kinda version of "just like heaven" is that?

Dinosaur Jr.
Not a skateboard guy, so I have no context for what this vid represents.
It was probably the most influential skateboarding video of its era, it set the benchmark for everyone else to follow
@@rorz999this, I couldn't put it better myself
Filmed in LA right?
Wait, this isn't George Lopez.
m d for the intro song yes
Jason Lee 1970-1991 😂😂😂
かっけ
Wait, how did they get the rights for this music?
+Chris Hartwig they had spike jonze as director, who's quite big
+Chris Hartwig also it didn't matter much then. Good skates good tunes no one was the wiser. no internets with rats and snitches.
Spike Jonze was a nobody back then, although he was married to Sofia Coppela at the time, who's dad made the fucking Godfather movies, that could be it.
I know its like a little late but Jason just mentioned on the nine club that they just asked for the Jackson 5 song and whoever it was just asked to put a don't drink and drive message in the film.
I feel like 180s and 360s used to look different...
No weird pivots

hello Kids
To all those who are causing suffering in this world, directly or indirectly: Heed your dreams at night, those nightmares that you most assuredly are having are imploring you to change -before it’s too late…
The quality of our dreams is both a reflection of our thoughts and actions as well as a general foreshadowing of the fate of our souls in the next life...A nightly, temporary karma that beckons us to change - for the good - so as to avoid a more permanent karma.
Beauty(🌷)+Complexity(🌎)

The Figure 8 Analogy:
An analogy on life, death, the dream-state and the symbolism intertwined within the human experience.
We human beings are not traveling in the abstract motion of a straight line towards death (for instance, the numerical straight line of say 1-89). Instead, we are moving in the motion of a figure 8. The Figure 8 is a natural repeating pattern that is divided into two halves and is thus the perfect symbol to represent the human life cycle and our two primary states of existence that we are continuously moving in and out of -the Awake state and the Dream state.
When we awake from sleep we come full circle to when we fall back asleep (represented by the bottom half of the figure 8 )and when we go into the dream state we come full circle to when we awake from the dream state (represented by the top half of the figure 8 ). Upon death; the figure 8 of life untwines, but it’s not the body untwining from the mind that this analogy represents. It's two states of mind untwining to form a larger state of mind. (8-0)
Because the awake state is really a state -of mind, with our body's physical reality "consciously" intertwined; and the dream-state is also a state of mind, with our body's physical reality "subconsciously" intertwined. Therefore; upon death, these two states of mind untwine to form a “larger” state of mind. A state that has all the potentialities of the dream world (flying, telepathy, psychokinesis, etc) combined with all the actualities of the awake world(nature, form, bonds, etc). This I refer to as the transitional analogy.
While conceiving The Figure 8 Analogy, I realized life and death must be perceived -from one point of view- as seperate entities(the transitional analogy(8-0), but must also be perceived -from another point of view- as inseparable entities(the symbolic analogy👇), both of which are ultimately linked by the dream-state.
The symbolic analogy consists of the untwined figure 8 of life/the 'circle of death’, if you will, which -abstractly- overlapps the ‘circle of life’/the Earth, with the overlappment representing the dream-state, like the common area in a venn diagram, and implies that the dream state is just as much a part of life as is of death ~by which semi-explains precognitive dreams, prodromal dreams, "visitations" by deceased relatives, etc; for the dream-state has a foothold in the afterlife, and is based on the premise that “while our body sleeps, our dream state symbolically represents the state that awaits upon our body's ultimate rest.”
In other words, while we are lying down and sleeping/dreaming, this natural process symbolizes where we go when we're ultimately lying down/dead -to a place "like" our dream-state...A state "of mind” with our body's physical form+bonds eternally engrained and intertwined.
✋🏿👁~8~👁🤚🏻
Whoa.
Yeah if there is skateboarding and flying in the afterlife then sign me up I would also like to wakeboard windsurf and kiteboard
And bicycle and drive a large automobile
This is dope as all hell.....
BUT..... plan b questionable, from one year later.....BLOWS it away.....
That first Plan B truly was mind blowing. This is still my favourite skate video though. Skating progressed so much in the time it wasn’t cool to the outsiders.
Video days, is awesome, for me at least, cause it seemed like a smaller, more close team. ( At least at first). And Guy is probably my favorite of all time, just his experiences, overcoming, getting back up. Yet, the video still has Gonz, jason and Rudy. Every person in that video, is so humble, and to this day down to earth, for how talented they were, ( are), and how much they impacted skateboarding.
Video days kick ass...👍🤙🤟
true, but this set up the template. this created the modern skate video. You also have to think how fast skateboarding was progressing at this point. think how much crazier the tricks in virtual reality were to questionable, and that was just a one year difference.
Jeremy Klein's part in rubbish heap was hella awesome also.....
ㅆ발 존나 멋있다
Emilio is a moron!
SO THATS WHY JASON LEE WAS ON SKATW 3!!!!!!
mind = blown.
