hey sewa, if you're reading this: i worked at a CPH Open event a couple years ago where it was my job to collect trash. when the pros were done skating at the spot, everybody left, leaving their trash & bottles all over the spot. i started picking up after them, and while everyone was gone having drinks or partying, you helped me picking up some bottles so we'd get done faster. i didn't ask for it, you were just nice enough to help me out. i will never forget that. hope you will be going strong forver as a skater! cheers mate.
Thx for sharing, what a good dude.
so gay.
@@JesusNpalswhat is wrong with you
Great story, thanks for sharing it!
Damn, that's solid af.
Just when we thought you were out, they pulled you back in!
Oh yeah that’s funny. Dudes a manipulator.
He never left.
“I’m leaving UA-cam”
Then goes on the 9club.
Tells Chris Roberts how “to skate” with his wack setups.
Has 3 more videos within a week.
Keep getting that UA-cam clout Ben.
It just be truthful??
Seriously looked up to you Ben.
But your full of shit.
Oh wait Ben don’t read negative comments
Yes men bullshit
7 and a quarter is city consistent with and 8.5. Wow what a joke.
The godfather style
😂
Very allegorical.
Keep doing this with every skater ever.
Working on it 🙂
@@bendegros you absolutely must do one of these with PJ Ladd please.
i like that u said that@@bendegros
@@bendegros dang, i need pj ladd one, it would be interesting
Yeah every top pro
I love how Ben points out how the attention to detail that Sewa put into his board. It's a genuine nod and acknowledgement to the fact that Sewa is putting out a product he truly believes in. His years of skating have been his laboratory as much as they are a testament for his passion to pursuing the optimal skating experience, what a wholesome combo. i'm here for it
27:53 is one of the best tre flips i've ever seen
Ben Degros... doing the real in depth investigations of a proper board-reporter. The best in the biz, giving you that real-time sk8 info that you need!
1. Love this style vid Ben. Cool to see what dudes are riding, and your commentary is always spot on.
2. How the hell does he land so solid...like, he stomps everything!! Must've been nice to have a front row seat!
3. Seems like you're relaxed and enjoying life, you deserve it!! 👊
Thanks Daryl 🙂
Glad you're back Ben
One of my favorite skaters!! He’s always been so articulate about his set up since so long ago in interviews, I would try emulate everything he does! And I would take into account the ratio differences of our height and shoe size.. so for me it would be a 8.25 deck 14.25 blablabla… he’s such a legend
Hell yes, Ben. You went from retired to making the exact videos your core fans want. Proud of you haha ❤️
sewa is a rare skater that knows his stuff, pure class.
damn Sewa is very knowledgeable about his board and preferences
Ben, glad to see the humble giant Sewa on your channel!
Also love when pros mix their setup with older hardware that is out of production.
Yoo Ben and all the other setup nerds! This video comes at the perfect time to announce that for the past weeks and months I've been working on a website where I've been collecting all the pro setups I can get my hands on. As I told you when you "quit" Ben, I really wanted to start working on my own skateboarding related content and I'm on it! You and Adriano have been very influential in that. The website is not yet available, but it will be in a few weeks! Thanks for showing us Sewa's setup, I didn't reach out to him yet, but I will include it on my website, too :)
It must be surreal to see Sewa walking in person, if the videos are already impressive, imagine live? I can say it's one of the most beautiful flips I've seen in my life, it comes together! Great interview Ben. Congratulations 🛹♥️🇧🇷🔥🔥🔥
Appreciated the slow-mo on Sewa's f/s flips as the flick was so fast I almost missed it at actual speed.
Love how Ben schools the pros, his knowledge is like professor Schmitt!
Sewa lands so perfect you can only hear a single hit between the four wheels on most of his tricks here. I work in music and people usually have to edit their audio for timing to be that perfect in songs haha.
Thanks Ben! You are getting me through the snowy winter.
Really interesting and actually confirmed where I'd naturally arrived with my board setup over the last 25 years. I think the eye just sees it 😊
Love Sewa! You guys are both so into all these specs, perfect match.
I love this content. Been skating for over 20 years but it’s awesome to hear this information and it is helping me better understand and dial in to my preferences
As a ledge skater, Sewa’s always really inspired me. His part in “this is not a test” is maybe my favourite of all time
really enjoyed you guys chatting, so insightful and relaxing! please keep doing this, thank you.
Another great vid. I love getting into the technical aspects of setups and hearing why you and pros have or have not settled in on specific features/measurements.
Dude thank you Ben for sharing these awesome videos. I had to rewind that switch kick flip back tail a few times so sick!
Sewa is a legend of pop and flatground so it's not surprising that he got to where he is with 7.75s and 7.9s. I remember how light and poppy those skinny boards can be. The only downside was how horrible it felt to cruise around on them which is why I think even Sewa went up in size.
Cool to see and hear Sewa. I could actually feel his wheels stomping the pavement! Thanks Ben
These setup reviews are awesome Ben! Love Sewa too. This was a much appreciated collab.
So crisp and so much pop. Every trick. And the style.
Always loved the steez. So effortlessly. And that tre, its like he jumps and crouches up into the air to meet it.
I love this, Seva has been one of my favorites for a long time. Thank you!
this video was beautiful; the conversation, the analysis, the passion...
I agree having more nose and tail not only makes flicking better but holding slides a lot more fun. Nice meeting you guys!
Glad to see content again; I hope it keeps going with no pressure, at your own pace.
Please just keep posting this sort of content on your own time. You definitely have a loyal follower out of me... Perfect for educating skaters and for letting the industry know what people want. Thank you Sewa for making me fall in love with flat ground. Venture Low beast pop.
Another amazing video as always ❤ So stoked to see you back ! Wishing you and the family all the best for the new year sending you love and best wishes ❤️🛹🤘🏻🇿🇦
love these new videos, sewa is such a great dude,
used to see him around at the és game of skate contests
that was great. lovin all the additional details like the height and shoe size.
Great breakdown. Skating at the end is just too good.
These kind of vids are great, like a short technical Nine Club, love it!
Kinda start loving this content lately, more interesting vids about pro setups and deep info about what they ride and what they think about gears and stuff. Keep going Ben you’re the best ❤❤
Realy interesting this difference between the old and new Venture. I had noticed the difference but never feel something different! Glad to hear all the details about the Sewa setup ! I always thought that he deserved better sponsors! Another good one Ben!
This was excellent! Please do more of these.
Skated with him at Lafayette skatepark in LA about 12 years ago and dude was always the best. No ego, always took time to speak with groms, very nice and respectful. Sewa is top notch.
I love seeing casual park footage of a guy like Sewa, it really puts into perspective how good some of these guys are at skating. It's also funny learning about what sizes benefit different people. Sewa is a massive fella and skates what I view as a tiny board and it works for him, meanwhile I'm short and I've been skating an 8.5 for 7 years and even trying a smaller wheelbase (14") has thrown a wrench into my skating 😂
I get so stoked on these.
Plz never take another hiatus
Next level setup videos, thank you!
Love this dude, one of my favorite styles for sure!
That tre flip was astronomical 🤯and awesome video as always ben getting surprised with a new video is a great feeling
Stoked to wake up and see this video Ben. Thank you!!!!
First time I've really heard Sewa in an interview or talk much - Seems like a really chill and well spoken guy, and was interesting to hear him talk about his setup. Very close to Ben's I think! Close to an 8", with the Venture lows and 50/51mm and 14" wheelbase.
Beautiful! You are doing pretty well for a retired “UA-camr”. I’m hoping for more set-up reviews with the pros. No pressure 🙂
Something I missed was you riding Sewa’s board, doing some tricks, and getting your thoughts on it. Sewa and you have relatively similar setups, so it would also be nice to see Sewa ride your board.
Love these videos hope you are able to keep doing more with every pro you come across.
I hope so too!
Been watching since 2018 !! Love the setup breakdown vids shout out UNCLE BEN
Yeah this is a really good video. Very interesting looking in depth at setups. I love setup videos.
For me there is such a different and really nice way when pros are captured “normally” by the camera in a local Skatepark. This shows how good these skaters really are. P Rod did the same thing a few weeks ago with Chris Cole. To see these Skaters at those places is insane. Like completely crazy. It's raw footage. 100% authentic. Love it so much.
The clips are so good. I really like Sewas style.
What I like about your channel is the info. Board size has a lot to do with how you’re body is built. We can adapt to everything, but comfort is everything as well.
Thank you for the good information. Both of you have great styles
I appreciate the hell out of these vids.
Thanks man! You're doing a really good job breaking it all down for those who want to get more in depth and make adjustments!
I don't care too much about the tiny details of my board setup - indies, spitfires, med concave and bones redz does it all for me, I'm only a little picky about my board, but I really wish someone did such series for snowboarders since gear is much more crucial to achieve certain things in freestyle!
One of the snappiest pops I've seen. 💪
You talking about Ben
Don’t know why it took so long to find your channel but I’m glad I did. Great skate content!
Yes, I appreciated that very much. Sewa is an absolute beast, Tiago pop with a Dillon Jabe smoothness.
just found your vids yesterday so pleasant surprise for a new one, and a new one with sewa at that.
Welcome!
Im really enjoying the special guests on the channel lately.. keep it up man.. maybe we can get a deep dive with other pros in the near future..
Loving these types of videos! So cool to see what the pros are skating and those tre flips have me searching ebay for old venture lows lol. Glad you're back Ben :)
If only the secret was the trucks😂
Hahaha hey a man can dream!! @@bendegros
The madness is real. I have size 10 shoes so I feel like I should ride something bigger than 8, but I’m also 5’8” then you have to consider the WB, my head is spinning lol. Thank you for the content and your time Ben!
Thanks for posting Ben. You are the best.
I love seeing the pro setup reviews
Thanks for thinking about us, it always shocks me that millimeters can make such a difference to a set up.
Love this format. I'd love to see, I know this is a big one, exactly daewons reasoning to the almost falling apart trucks.
Daewon has explained it many times look it up
totally dig the addition to the "what size shoe do you wear?" question! I have always wondered the shoe size/board size comparison for most of my favorite skaters.
I love hearing about setups from the pros!
Damn that LA trip was really worth it! Love these collabs
Sewa is a machine. I remember Nigel did a lot of similar video, but you're really getting deep into specs and that's a different story. Keep 'em coming whenever you have an opportunity to film with a pro, that's a great content! BTW (since it's a video with Sewa) your name in Russian letters would look like БЕН ДЕГРО.
Sewa has one of the most solid fs flips in skateboarding
Those frontside flips are incredible.
Loving this so much
thank you ! the more videos I watch the more madness I get... but I like it !
Very interesting. Thank you.
Thanks for this video !
Keep this series going!
Hell yeah Ben! Sewa is legit! Every trick he does is just textbook and the pop he gets with every flip trick is crazy!!! Dope to get the inside Scoop on pros setups!!!
I like this interview videos!!
I'm a griptape snob for sure. Been loving pepper grip, going to have to try alveer
These are great, thanks!
cool clip well done, yeah Sewa is amazing and he has been since day 1..just one of the best to ever do it peoples who know knows omg its very very impressive
What a perfect person for you to do a setup video with! Great content as usual! (good job not going fan girl.. I would have)
In my old hometown Long Beach. Miss that park. Used to do tricks off that drop that music festivals were held.
Keep those pro setups coming.
Great video Ben D!
I'm invested in this type of video. if you have the motivation please do more pros set ups
all i know is i cant always find the exact same size board when buying a freshie, and some board are so much better to ride then others, like night and day difference. Thanks for your insight on the channel, now I get close as possible size boards when getting a new one.
Nice boards on the wall there! I got those two Carrolls as well hahaha
(For what it's worth) I worked in a skate shop through the early/mid 2000's and we went through a period where Indy trucks were having major issues with their axels bending, and Venture king pins were snapping at an insanely high rate.. I got put off them and only skate Thunders these days.. Love the F4's and DLX decks too..
Cheers for the content 🙏
Try ace with bones medium. Best, fun, surfy turn.
Love this, a great way to reinvent your channel father Benjamin.
Must be nice to have access to a custom made board, I spent an awful amlunt of money and time to find my perfect board buy I made it ^^
I want Sewa's hat.. On and off the board , he's in my top 5 skaters right now. Clean ass style..
It's cool seeing you in LA .. Next time you come to california , please stop by the Tustin Legacy skatepark.
JC! sewa is insanely good that was insanity 😮
