Awesome new video from Venice based The Arbor Collective!
The Whiskey Project is: Cameron Revier, Alec Beck, Olan Prenatt, Sean Imes, Tyler Davis, Sam Baker and Justin Premeaux.
Stop in and say hello to the friendly people at Arbor at 102 Washington or 305 Ocean Front Walk! As seen in the video, they make great boards (in the USA!) that even the best of skaters respect!
Living in the cracks behind the hype of today’s Venice, there is still a kid who started with nothing and has given everything to a life built on skating. Pushing past the hordes of tourists, the transplanted wealth, the performers, the hipsters, the valet class – past the muck, the grime, and the grease – you’ll find a core layer of youth, skating hard on and off the grid. For Arbor, they’re helping hold down skating’s street legacy, with talent that burns like that first pull off granddad’s bourbon.
These individuals are making their mark with a distilled set of tricks crafted away from the limelight in the broken alleys, forgotten infrastructure, and public parks of our distracted, overly plugged-in world. The Whiskey Project is for them – the best young skaters from in-and-around Venice. A project they created, they run, and they front. A place to tell their stories, highlight their lines, and play their part in showing what skating’s roots were, are, and will always be.
Raise a glass and enjoy The Whiskey Project.
