Quiksilver
Trent Ludwig is the creative force behind Quiksilver’s acclaimed Cinematic Video series. The style and substance that has made these edits so renowned is apparent in this episode as well which was shot exclusively at Superpark 15. Bringing to light the diversity of the squad Quiksilver brought to Mt. Bachelor, this offering includes everything from Alex Beebe, Ted Borland and Will Lavigne annihilating the Bachelor built rail cube to Chris Rasman and Matt Belzile boosting the lift-side step down gap. Lastly this video includes Forest Burki and Bryan Fox smoothly and silently making their own mark among the mayhem. If this submission clicks for you then click for this submission on the “like” button below their video.

Volcom
Though they may officially produce media under the Veeco Productions Moniker, there is no mistaking that classic Volcom style. Low-fi DIY documenting of insane shredding is what has made flicks like The Garden, Subjekt Haakonsen, and 9191 instant classics. In just 3 minutes and 20 Seconds, this video may encapsulate the best of what went down at Superpark® 15. From Farmer rapping at the awards, to Blum straight-arming the wall, to Ruiki imbibing edibles, high times were had by all. Too bad there isn’t a “love” button below because sometimes “like” just doesn’t cut it.

Bribing kids with a snowboard is kinda lame. I liked your video better so I voted for it but it just seems a little unfair.

are you joking. if you were there the volcom vid shows what it's all about at superpark. riding with your friends, and partying with shawn farmer. Quicksilver is just another copy of black and white trying to make it look emo. Why isn't it in color. Look at the superpark video that won last year. same thing. black and white, fake film burn effexts, and crappy music. Volcom is original at very least.

There's just no *love* from the Volcom vid. There's a care about the shots and the feel of QS video. Hands down, the QS video is a far superior production. The Volcom one just looks amature in comparison.

Cool all you jocks out there vote the QS. Vote Volcom if you are a hardcore shred dog. Old school meets new, Volcoms video rocks RAW.
