I skate, I am part of the movement it wasn't like me being an outsider trying to film what we did
and not only that, music too, all the street culture Our culture was not being seen, nor represented
nothing really represented what we were doing so I Thought if I didn't film it we are going to loose it
No one is going to film it so no one would know what's really happening
A new generation doing all these things different from everything creating our own culture
our own world if I don't document all these no one will and it will be lost then
And the new kids will never know what happened no one was doing it so I took the chance to do it myself
Have a chance to say: "here we are, this is what we do, what we are" take a look at it
because nobody else will do it and if they do. It would be an outsider showing us something wrong
not real, Stereotype of what's really happening a stranger is not really into that, having it inside
I am still doing it. Telling our story, showing our culture
somebody has to. Not everybody will because not all the people have the same feeling
but I felt if I didn't do it no one will Maybe that's why I started producing skate videos
I said to myself: "no one has ever made a skate video" and there is all this culture about it from long time ago
then other people started doing it, los cubos, steban everybody. So I felt like the need has been fulfilled
and that help the new people to be motivated new kids doing different things, different points of view
more people feeling the need to tell a story about it their own perspective, their own way to do it
so when more videos beside mine were being done I thought I could try other things, new tarrain
maybe something that needs to be told
that way of work generates a lot and suddenly you have more people working on it
and it helps the movement to grow
that's the beauty about human beings all this knowledge that we share among us
a treasure we have at our own disponibility all this culture about the things we love
so you don't have to figure out the road because there is already a road to follow
so all the things that were done before will help us to learn from and do our job better
lay down the next layer so the kids that will come after us have something to learn from
all the things that were done before and that's what everything it's all about, learning and give back
