But when you were when you were, um, oh, you guys are coming out with a new video. We are. Yes. Yes. When sorry. Drop. Fall. Fall. So it's still working progress. I'm going to go with August, September right now. Oh, and you've seen it. You've been involved with the process. Very much. So in fact, three hours ago, I was doing something for it. Oh, really?

1:34.2

That was kind of dangerous. And I'm glad I'm here to talk about it. Yeah. Thank God, Tony. Yeah. Jesus Christ. All right. Okay. When you were coming out with videos, did that mean the big premieres and everything? Did you get antsy to watch your part on the big screen?

1:47.1

Oh, well, we were in the era of videos just starting. Right. So to have a video premier seemed really odd to us. Okay. Like, did people care that much? Right. Right. And our videos were done within a matter of days.

2:04.2

You know, week or two. So we were stoked to shoot it. But we just didn't think it was something so special that would resonate. Yeah. I think the first video premier I went to was Animal Chin. Animal Chin. Yeah. And it was like, oh, wow. This is actually a thing. Like, people care. And I mean, I'm sure the turnout was crazy. It was. Yeah. I mean, as far as we were concerned, it was big. Sure. Yeah. Um, how would it take the film, Animal Chin? Uh, about three weeks. Really? Yeah. Yeah. It's a makeable. We were going nonstop nonstop. And then.

2:34.2

Uh, the very last shoot ironically was Wallows, which is the first thing in section because Stacey wanted us to have a vacation in Hawaii at the end. I work vacation. Yeah. But we were in we were in Hawaii for maybe two nights or three nights. Okay.

2:48.2

We're going to fly straight back to a competition in Phoenix. Straight to the contest. I mean, literally we didn't get a data practice. We showed up on the day of the contest. Wow. That was our Animal Chin vacation. But what I mean, you've been involved in some great videos. It's. Oh, it's amazing. I mean, it's great. And it's. It's really.

3:03.9

It's really fun. It's fun to see how far that's come. Right. It's fun to have lived it. It's fun to have seen it. It's fun to be here. I mean, we're in Hollywood. I know.

3:12.1

For a vacation theater. Shoot sponsor Escape Premiere. Yeah. To me, that is insane. Right. And I love it. And I'm happy to be part of it. But. But just if you look at it from the outside, it's like, wait a second. Yeah.

3:24.1

People are that hyped on skateboarding. Oh, yeah. And a video, you know what I mean? And also, it just from my perspective, you know, a complete team video is something that is rare these days. We're doing one. Obviously. These guys did one. But for the most part, no one's doing a big team video. Right.

3:44.2

And I love how people always say like, oh, you know, we're dropping a new video part. Right. It's not a part of anything. Yeah. It's. Why do you call it that? Because you want you. You hark back to the team video. Right. Yeah. Right. But really when people say my video part, shopping, you know, it's your video. It's your video. Right. Of you only. Right. Right.

4:04.4

Yeah. Because people don't have that attention span. Yeah. And, you know, a video. Obviously, once this is released, once ours is released, I know it's going to be broken up into parts. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. That that feeling of camaraderie, that feeling of teamwork. Yes. Is really infectious. It's fun to watch. It's totally infectious. Because every time I see an actual skate video where the dudes are skating together. Yeah.

4:43.4

Yeah. All together. And I mean, you can tie the feed enough on. Yeah. Now I always wanted to be a part of that. Right. I know it's like, I watch these videos growing up. I'm like, I want to be a part of that team. Like I love that.
