B-Side wakeskate edit from Ozone Kites AMPhetamine video.
Filmed on location at Kite Mansion, Brazil. Old footage plus some never before seen clips, edited to a classic Autofocus tune.

Who would have thought this song would become so relevant to todays wish wash of social media encrapsulation.
I hope this edit inspires you to pick up a Wakeskate and give it a shred!

Edit: Alexander Lewis-Hughes.
Song: Felix Da Housecat - Madame Hollywood feat. Miss Kittin.
Filmers: Alex Maes, Annelous Lammerts, Ewan Jaspan, Karolina Winkowska.

I don't feel the love for the wakeskate. But I do see the skill involved.

That is awesome, its like Rodney Mullen cross Melbourne Hispter with kite skills.
Very talented stuff though.

How do your skate shoes smell after hot days in the skatepark AND Salty Ocean Stank?
Do you just bin them before you fly back to Australia?

You know how to make a good vid. Love the kick flip stuff.

I'm surprised that the wake skate thing in kiting has t taken off more. It looks so fun. Perhaps because you don't have to spend 2 grand on a new kite board for it, no brand pushes it.

There is another guy I saw in Geraldton who rips on Wake Skate too. Pretty motivating to watch.

From what ive seen, bit of waxing tie the hair back and put some lippy on. Should be enough.

Often times after a trip or two I will bin a pair, especially if in Brazil or something where it's really salty, they rot pretty fast.

As sad as it is you are 100% correct my friend. All hail capitalism.

I'm a bit late but was wondering if someone could explain the 2 white semi -circular things on the base (13 seconds in)? Are they to help lock in to nose/tail slides? But they're quite close to the middle, 50-50s maybe?
Lovin the front big spins. Thanks.
