G-Mos

I've been following that Gershon Mosely Park Ranger thing. I love Gershon, dude still shreds...check him in this lengthy clip of him at the Wilmington Skate Plaza. Lines for days.

1FS Around the World: K

I'm counting South Korea as K...Heres Go Sung-il who skates for a Korean company called Wyfluence.

Suprised and stoked on Kenya. Not sure the details but its called "Kenya skate montage" and I'm happy to see skateboarding there period.

And heres some sketchy looking stuff from a kid named Acet and hes from Kazakhstan

1FS Around the World: J

Japan: YouWillSoon's Japanese field reporter always posts rad clips from the Lesque team on that site, so I thought I'd do the same for my Japan post. I can't remember if this one was posted, but it was the newest one posted on the 'tube. Here is Shota Yamazaki from Tokyo.

I wish there was more for J. Particularly Jamaica. But skateboarding seems to struggle in that island nation. If you know of some Jamaican rippers, hit me up.

I honestly didn't expect to find much middle east stuff in general. I was surprised to find a good amount of Jordani clips on there. Filmed on point and shoots a la Gnar Gnar, and filmed at 2 or 3 spots, here is Ahmad Sahli repping Amman, Jordan.

1FS Around the World: I

So many countries names start with I (In English at least, they perhaps call themselves something totally different e.g. Germany/Deutchland.)I was looking forward to this post because I have seen some cool stuff via youtube lurkage already but I didn't really look very deeply, so now I did.

Ireland. I was in Ireland for a short visit in 1998. I skated this amazing bank spot at a ferry terimal...Epic indeed. I watched a lot of these videos a while back, and the scene there totally reminds me of our scene here in Atlantic Canada. Rugged spots, a lot of skatepark footy, small scene and I think a similar culture in general.

Heres a montage posted early last year called Absolutely, Sort of.

Dion McGarrity

Keith Walsh shreds too

I found so much more rad Irish stuff, but don't want the post to be too long.

Italy was incredibly harder. But it kinda facinated me.

They call this dude "The Wiga". Heavy song selection heavy PTs and a kickflip to buttslide. I don't know what to think. You decide for yourself.

Then theres this dude

Both of those parts are from a company called La Ghigliottina and the 2nd was a guy named Fede Faccioli. The video is named after him, and its called "Double F & Stupid Life".

Last but not least we haver Mauro Caruso who is on Cliche.

This post is getting way too long, so only one more country.

From Iceland we have David Jonsson

and a trailer for a video called "Algleymi".

That is all.

1FS Around the World: H

H brings us to the Central American country of Honduras. Not much in terms of production, but it is documenting skating in that country and thats what I set out to find. Sounds like late 90's SoCal punk, but in Spanish.

Hungary: Heres a montage of skating in Budapest in 2007-2008 by a VM called Kronika. Looks like Hungary has some spots.
