What I love about Barcelona is that you are guaranteed a skate. The weather is perfect, completely clear skies everyday. It rained once, and within an hour it was dry. Theres also so much to skate, Sants, Fondo, MACBA.. and if you dig a little deeper you find little spots all over the place. The most fun I had was just skating around the place, looking for spots. When on our quest to find the hump to bar at Besos we stumbled on about 3 or 4 famous spots. One of the places was this little plaza with banks everywhere and this sweet hip. That was right next to the gap to ramp (which is proper sketchy). Seeing all these spots up close gives you so much respect for the people you see in videos busting over them. For instance, the bump to bar at Besos is proper gnarly, fuck knows how it was switch heeled. We found those narrow metal transition things this time too... nuff random, I don't know what they're for. After 10 minutes of sessioning Hill and Coyle finally got the art of airing out of them down.
Last trip I took minimal photos (like 2 came out haha), so this time I think I got about 74ish haha... some of the better ones are in the minivid. Must have like 150+ photos when including Hills, Jakes and Matts.
I might release an extras video later on, we got nuff random apartment footage and shite (mostly involving Jake with fire, hammers and Slim Shady music videos).
Anyway, the minivideo... it might take a while to load, it's like 60mb (running time is almost 10 minutes). Enjoy.
Note: If the video didn't work for you, please re-download, the last upload was corrupt.

i think if that was a 25 minute video, people would actually pay like 30 dollars for a copy if you put it in a nice little dvd dase and cd cover
