I love surprises.  When I was 5 years old, I was surprised at Christmas time with my very first 2-wheeler He-Man bicycle to match my HE-MAN briefs and then more surprised when I went outside and ate crap riding it.  Are you ready for an early CHRISTMAS gift surprise?  When Lakai talks, you should listen.  I just sat trough almost 30 minutes of skateboarding awesomeness.  I thought it would be a quick 5-minute tour video but to my surprise, it was the entire thing.  There are a few surprises in this video so be prepared for a few SPOILERS.

First of all, the credits are at the beginning of the video, which kind of surprised me since most people don’t enjoy watching credits.  But you should go ahead and not fast forward through them so you can sit there and appreciate the people who put this together.  Second, Ty had nothing to do with this so don’t expect the entire crazy crane/slow motion cinema you have gotten so accustomed to.  The music is pretty dope as well.
