Pretty Sweet

With so much anticipation for this video, Pretty Sweet did live up to what was to be expected from Girl/Chocolate.

I felt the video was another excellent effort by Girl/Chocolate, as their previous videos, I would say this is one of the best skateboarding videos to date. In this day & age when everything is made for web, it is good to see companies like Girl / Chocolate still producing quality skateboarding videos. For me, it is probably the last full feature video for the skate ledgends that I have idolized for over 2 decades. It is a milestone in Skateboarding history.

This video had a feeling of “the passing of the old to the new” – many legend pros had supporting part in younger pros part, which is a very nice way to usher in the new era of skateboard pros.

According to Ty Evans Instagram post, Guy Mariano had 6 hours 41 mins 35 seconds of footage available for Pretty sweet. He has not only inspired many generations of skaters,

Guy continues to inspire even his peers today by being such a role model & defining what it means to be a pro skater; a living legend he is.

His part blew me away, & you must watch it yourself to see.

Other parts which I favor are Alex Olson & Mike Carroll’s part, amazing feel with the old beastie boys track. Cory Kenney’s part was bangin, this was Anthony Claravall’s favorite part, Brandon & Jeron’s part, Jesus & Chico part… Vincent’s part.. the “Trunk boys” are the next generation.

The Deluxe disc version includes over an hour of the unused footage that will blow your mind, for older guys like me, you will appreciate the extra footage of Eric Koston, Guy Mariano, Mike Carrol, Gino Iannucci, Rick Howard, Brian Anderson, etc etc. The extra footage of the new skaters are in my opinion equally as mind blowing as the main feature film. It is definitely worth collecting this disc set, which has both DVD & Blu-ray. Blu-ray disc is amazingly sharp & clear. Highly recommend getting a blu-ray player if you dont have one already.
