As Americans we love to think the world revolves around us. Yup, it’s just the truth and sometimes it takes us a fat second to catch on to something that’s not sitting right in our big backyard. Case and Point: Sour Skateboards. The Euro crew is everything we enjoy about skateboarding (and one of the biggest brands overseas) but only now are we getting around to highlighting some of their talented buffoonery.
To bring our lazy asses up to speed, we hit them up and they put together Instagram Killed The Video Star – a Sour Skateboard’s megamix of Instagram footy, hijinx, dork tricks, and stoned thoughts, filmed across all sorts of sketchy recording devices. The Scandinavian skate wizards stationed in Spain encapsulate everything that has made us stay in love with skateboarding well into our adulthood.
