thanks man, and te reason i opted to ditch the sound is because all my sound i got sounded shitty, i wasnt even paying attention to sound levels, i'll focus on my audio next time for sure

you should watch more skate edits, and invest in a fisheye. those guys were throwing down and i dont feel the level of filming/editing matched the level of skating. keep trying though.

I would have preferred if you had shot that like every other skate edit ever. ie, with a fisheye, following someone on your board and crouching to get a low angle.

sick of fisheyes.... but a wide angle would be nice, it did seem like it was filmed from pretty far away.

i feel like the shot at 1:32 should've been right after the intro shot at 19 seconds..

Another little thing : make sure your project settings and render settings are set correctly, you're shooting with a t2i yet it looks like a flip cam. Maybe play around exporting some footage and see what looks best on you tube, it should look crystal clear.
