If you are shopping this holiday season and want to pick up something for the skateboarder in the family a new skateboarding video is a great way to go. You don’t have to worry about size, style, or color. Skateboarding videos are one size fits all.

What you should be aware of is whether or not they have the video you plan on getting them, and if it is a new skateboarding video or an old one. For the most part videos don’t go out of date but like anything else the newer it is the more hyped they will be.

To help you out I have found two videos that are new.

The first is Tony Hawk Trick Tips Volume 3 Skateboard Instructional Dvd. This would be great for a beginner or someone who just needs that extra bit of instruction. It features;
•Tony Hawk and Mike Vallely have an entire section dedicated to “old school” skating
•Bucky Lasek joins Hawk in giving away guarded secrets about vert skating
•For the advanced and daring, Tony explains how to do the elusive 900

The second video is not instructional but defiantly has some crazy riding. It is more suited for a more mature rider who knows what to appreciate when watching a video. Any one who has been riding for a few years or seems to think little of Tony hawk will appreciate this one.

Here is their write up on it: “5 Long years in the making, Flip finally has released Extremely Sorry. Everybody put it down for this video. Expect some raw, mind-bending skateboarding and incredible quality film making. Full parts from: Geoff Rowley, Mark Appleyard, David Gonzalez, Rodrigo Tx, Ali Boulala, Luan Oliveira, Bob Burnquist, Rune Glifberg, Tom Penny, Lance Mountain, and Shane Cross (RIP). Also featuring Louie Lopez, Curren Caples, Ben Nordberg, Willow, and more. The Flip team is consistently pushing skateboarding to new heights while keeping it core”
