This is a non-monetized account that serves as a database for the preservation of skate videos, old and new, in the highest fidelity possible.
I come from a time before high speed internet, youtube, and instagram. vx1000 footage and almost every skate video prior to HD has been 29.97 INTERLACED frames (or 59.94i) which is actually sampling motion at 59.94 fields per second. When played back on a standard tube TV, classic skate videos filmed at 29.97 exhibit the same temporal motion at 59.94p(60p). When skate videos first started getting posted to the internet, all 29.97 (59.94i) videos were de-interlaced to 29.97p which effectively halved the perceived frame rate we were all used to. Our goal is to present these classic videos the way the artist intended with the full frame rate.
