Bust Crew is half a clothing brand (the audiovisual offerings of which LIVE has presented to you quite a few times before), half - and foremost - a crew of friends who make skate videos - nothing that would really be anything out of the ordinary if said people didn't comprise the likes of Ty Beall, Jon Rowe, Gilbert Crockett, Pat Burke, Cory Bittle, Caleb McNeely, Daniel Ravenal and Will Rosenstock - at least for the occasion of this new edit. As its title suggests, "4FIDDY" is the group's contribution to "FIDDY", a community video initiative launched by East Coast skate magazine Skate Jawn, upon the release of its fiftieth edition. The eventual, resulting full production has similarities to TransWorld's "Cinematographer Project[(s)]", just marinated in tomato sauce and mozzarella melt, and with a dry aftertaste of thick local crust.
Well, that is one hell of a good day for fans of rough spots! The Bust Crew are on it, teaming up with the Venue homies, so this is a heavy dose of rarely seen and most likely unskatable street furniture…
"Nominated for the Most Productive Crew, right?" They are definitely neck to neck with John Wilson and co, that's for sure… But, if they recruit Jake Johnson for good, that might change it all. Let's note the seamless transfer to HD and a couple nods/jabs(?) at some of the current trends in videos. The Bust heads are just on top of their name!
They don't really mess around those Bust Crew heads, and Cooper Seal deserve his spot there, considering he can pull a quite explosive Gilbert Crockett featuring in his part in Brick without looking pale in comparison at all!
The new Bust Crew production, Brick, is just out and they already are cleaning the hard drives, sharing their "trash"… And as usual, they explore the lesser attractive dead-ends of their towns… And even winter looks like a good time!
Gilbert on his own would be enough of a slap to the face, but with the two buddies he is sharing this part in A Street, now this is one hell of an adrenalin shot! That should last you all week-end, if not more!
As we already know, they like it rough at Bust Crew, and this compilation of (sometimes already seen) recent footage just confirms that. Always a good boost before the week-end!
It seems, from the look of this, that tattoos still don't take all of Gilbert's time, and that skateboarding still reigns supreme in his heart… Then again, it's not like we had any doubt!
