Australia seems to be somewhat of a hotbed for skateboarding right now.

Filmers Leigh Bolton & Joel Lumbroso do an immense job in choreographing the clip together accompanied by a hypnotic drum score by Buttonpushers.
Featuring Kai Kishi, Jae Overton, Billy Lukins, Brad Saunders, Gary Almeida, Hiroki Muraoka, Issey Kumatani, Justice Reid, Kento Yoshioka, Tom Snape, Vanessa Miles, Laurence Keefe, Yoshiaki Toeda, Adam Davies, Sean Parker, Phil Marshall, and Levi Jarvis.
