Bluegrass Beat Down 2008 Edit By Mat Grimes

Bluegrass Beat Down 2008 Edit - By Mat Grimes, Mark Wodja, Steven Tat, Max Ballestero and more…
quoting Matt Grimes:
Alright, first off, sorry to those who have been waiting forever for this edit. This project was for an editing class at my school (I got an A on the project and in the class) but the school deleted everything so I lost the edit.
It took me 3 hours to edit this and honestly I liked the older edit more but it didn’t have all the footage in it.
Also yes some of the filming is bad, because my partner from the class helped film and he never filmed before.
Anyways, enjoy the edit, thanks to Doug Williams for putting together the comp, it was a lot of fun and everyone for busting out amazing tricks and taking time to do the interviews!
First Song: DZK - II Verses
Second Song: 22-20’s - Shoot Your Gun
Another edit is availiable here. Check the results here.

That’s cool but i don’t like the middle of the edit ‘cos you edited on an untouchable music from barely dead ! I mean you’ve got tons of music everywhere, so why use a music whose taken in one of the best rollerblading video for a competition edit.

Max Ballestero has a sick style, I really enjoyed his skating at BCSD.

Good stuff and it looked like a fun comp. Just some constructive criticism- Watch your head room on your interview shots(there was way too much) and there were crazy hot spots on your subjects face(s).
