ANEW: Skate or Climb

I call New Mexico home now after being away from the rockies for over 20 years. Since my arrival here this new territory is a consistent marvel. People don't really perceive New Mexico as an “outdoor” state but i'm here to tell you it IS. The Rockies start here so the typography might not be as aggressive as Colorado peaks, but is beautiful in a different way, ANEW way. Taking that as a catalyst for this adventure I wanted to seek out some skaters that have a diverse skill set to adventure around this enchanted state with me. They should Skate and rock climb for this idea to work. I reached out to long time friend Luke Bender to see if he was interested. Luke enthusiastically accepted the challenges and recommended Adam Bazydlo who then recommended Mick Casels. A “solid group of producers” said Adam after the plan was set. This was not aimed to be a “party tour” mission as we all had a lot of work to do. After all there are only a few of us, and we needed to pull out a film from only a long weekend, then back to our daily lives. We had some spots mapped out for skating but the climbing spots were very up in the air as we did not know the area all that well. The guys were actively hunting their climbing app called “Mountain Project” to find the hidden treasures fit for our climbing shots. Hmm why don't we have an app for skating spots… maybe it's better we don't. The Boys arrived at the ANEW compound in Taos NM (@casadenadataos) early the day before we set off eager and happy for the adventure to start. - Sayer

Mick and Adam are the best dudes for this project

[@iRollerboot]

Oh my.
This is masterful. From top to bottom.

[@that_which_is_not]

As someone who deeply appreciates both of these activities, I approve of this wholeheartedly. The music, the movement, this came out brilliantly 👏

[@mikedeezy]

Adam and Mick , lightyears ahead of most. I swear Adam needs a pro boot❤

[@fumurph]

The floaty 3 in the skatepark and the 5 outta the ditch were so satisfying. And the filming really captured that feeling I think we all chase on skates.

[@bigrods]

Beautifull video Sayer!! Well done!!

[@antonvrieling2718]

This was just beautiful. Everything about this was amazing.

[@Sicnus]

Dayum... as someone that has skated since mid 90's (AI - 50+years skating total) and climbed since late 80's... this was amazing. Please keep em' coming. subbed.

[@BUTTERTV]

Beautiful production and skating Sayer, Luke, Adam, and Mick! Much love!

[@yamilgoodson8771]

Man its good seeing Luke. Havent seen him since we were kids. Last time i saw him, we all got let go at a school in dtown for skating it and he almost got arrested for hiding. Not skating. Hiding. We hung out that whole day mostly while everyone else skated and he was casted up. Hilarious. If you see this im glad your doing good. Hope you remembered that. Great video.

[@doctormango9209]

I didn't even know people still skated blades! This video randomly popped up on my feed and I'm super stoked to see that people are still blading. Super sick! Alohaaaa

[@emceecentauri]

This was so enjoyable. The scenery, pacing, editing, skating, all of it are top tier stuff. Cheers dudes!

[@kevincollins8620]

One has put out some incredible blading media from time to time. I remember the one in alaska I think over a decade ago. Wojda was featured. Among others.
Mick is easily becoming one of our faves. Insanely versatile.
