Raw Run Video - Dexter Manning at Angie's Curves
Dexter Manning is one of the gnarliest downhill skateboarders on the circuit right now, routinely pushing it to the limit on the steepest, fastest, most dangerous roads he can find.
Documenting that radical skateboarding with follow-car footage requires serious driving skill and the ability to read a rider's body language to anticipate potential crashes and hit the brakes.
Dex and I have a great working relationship and trusts me to get the shot without endangering him; so he called me up to film a couple runs to use in the promo video for his new Landyachtz Longboards pro board, The Gambler. This run down Angie's Curves was the fastest follow filming I've ever done, reaching speeds well over 60mph into off-camber turns. I'm very pleased with the outcome.
