Yama Skateboards went to the Balkans and came back with 16 minutes of rough but great skateboarding on the streets of Ljubljana, Thessaloniki, and more. You might know Yama from their last video which was also a Place Presents but now they are looking for a signature Place Presents style Sales Bump for Yama Skateboards with this new project.

Film & Edit by Simon Steinbrecher.

I want to start off, by possibly apologizing to our friends in Greece, we’ve heard through multiple sources that people in Greece do not consider themselves as part of the Balkans. Then again, these same sources did confirm that during their own separate travel through the Balkan region, they could not deny that there is a strong connection. Yama gathered a squad consisting of several skaters from the Balkans, Greece, and their own Austria-based crew, to create the magic you will see in this video.

“We’ve heard through multiple sources that people in Greece do not consider themselves as part of the Balkans…”

The trip itself feels like a lot of bonding happened, beer was drunk, and spots were handled. So much so that at one point the can was empty. But with a diverse crew consisting of bicycle repairmen, doctors, musicians, and more we are sure all bases were covered in the end.

Lastly, we want to thank all involved in making this happen, Lori & Simon for editing, Yama for trusting us, and Notis for allowing Yama to use his ….. that will also be in the Vans video. By now Dr. Fuxl will have returned to his praxis, Lori will be fixing bikes and Simon is… well we don’t know if he wants you to know what he is doing out in Vienna… So all in all, we don’t know how you feel but we are excited to see more from the Yama crew and family. We hope you enjoy “Place Presents: Sales Bump by Yama Skateboards”!

We have been to Karlsplatz many, many times and this place is probably the beating heart of downtown Vienna while it can also be just a “Square” for everyone to sit down and have a beer or two. It’s impulsive but yet also calming. Luci did a “ur Leiwand” Job with this one, including all the homies and all the corners of the square.

One thing just left us wondering, how come Luci is the filmer, editor and the best skater in this video all at once?

Vienna’s Turtle Productions is back with a video called “Gehirnamputiert” and the right translation of the word would be brain-dead. We can tell you this, it is not the best time to be a turtle. Now, watch the video and understand why.

About 2 weeks back we were in Vienna, we met up with the turtle crew, we filmed a little clip of this British guy Henry who found love in the city and we met up with Louis Marschall. All in all, it was a nice get-together, and most of the faces we saw during those sessions are now represented in this new 11-minute piece.

We asked Louis to tell us a bit more and he came back with this little text:

“I try to be outside filming almost every day anyway but what specifically made this video come together was my good friend Henry Gibbs.

“Because of the global outbreak of Covid-19 and the fact that his girlfriend is currently living in Vienna he decided to extend his trip to the city way longer than planned (In the end, he stayed about 4 months). 

Due to his positive energy and motivational skills, we had a really good time filming in beautiful Vienna. I believe this video shows just that, FUN, and I look forward to seeing him again. Cheers to Henry and all of my friends!”

Now simply press play and enjoy the ride.

Bis zu diesem Hingucker hatten wir von dem Österreicher noch nicht besonders viel gesehen, doch bei Betrachten seines tumblrs fällt etwas sofort auf: Ulrich versteht seine Kamera zu bedienen. Manchmal zur richtigen Zeit am richtigen Ort, oftmals mit gutem Auge und interessanter Perspektive. Einige unserer persönlichen Highlights stellen wir an dieser Stelle vor.
