[@MoreDopeMedia]

This was something special man. Hard to put into words on the first watch but I loved it. Glad Kavon has his thing and made this

[@jessefabrizio828]

One of the best downhill films I’ve ever watched

[@KennyNapp]

Truly a storytelling masterpiece. Thank you Kavon.

[@spud4k]

Really showed how absolutely beautiful Asheville and the community around it is. God damn it this was amazing

[@flurpoid]

Incredible work man. This film really captures a lot about the scene that's difficult to put into words.

[@ThiesThiesThies]

Mid90s dh skateboading type feeling, i love this

[@35allgrip]

Gonna be watching this once a week for awhile

[@ProjectBroll]

Thank you for all of the hard work you put in. Watching this validated many facets of downhill for me.

[@William-Royce]

Down for life!

[@derowmediataskforce]

Thanks for sharing your experienced man. I remember the picture in the Sliders house toilet and had no idea it was you!

[@adventure_skate]

Touched on everything. And inside look at our special little world. Down for life.

[@noahtison9131]

Thank you to everyone that helped put this together. The honesty from everyone and the beauty of Asheville shesshhh❤️

[@TurboPelican]

This video was excellent, Kavon. Helped me to understand better why my son "Daddy Dave" is so excited about the sport! I was privileged to meet up with him at GRC the last two years and at WoodBooger this year as well. Great fun with great people!

[@OutlandishMojo]

Incredible film Kavon, even my wife enjoyed it and she usually only pretends to enjoy skate vids I make her watch

[@Incredimation]

Wonderful, just wonderful. Outstanding work Kavon.

[@therealforestelf]

Masterpiece. Only downside: wasn't high enough when watching this, so I probably understood only half of it. I'm an old man now, so I'll rewatch this again in the right mindset and finalize this comment. so far, it has been a moving interesting experience. truly an original slice of life piece of art documentary. very well done!

[@NCDHcommunity]

Beautiful film, and a moving story. Forever a classic!

[@jacobcampbell3167]

This captures the pure essence, emotion, and subtle danger that surrounds downhill skateboarding. What a truly beautiful film

[@grantschmidt8662]

Thank you Kavon, this film was a rollercoaster of emotions and was so fascinating to watch from an outsiders view of the Asheville scene.

[@StevenGill1002]

This defies being categorized as simply a "skate video" but also couldn't quite just be called a "film." It occupies a fairly untouched third position that transcends and combines the two, and the multitude of narratives are woven together very well. Amazing piece, thank you for taking the time and effort to share this with the world.

[@LWGMedia]

So good, you really captured the feeling of our community so well. Thank you for blessing us

[@gavinstrelitz1558]

A great piece of film making

[@MrBadiay]

Incredible movie. To put emotions into sound and images is a blessing. Thank you for sharing this

[@LachlanBreheny]

Ive been waiting years for this

[@derowmediataskforce]

Damn, I can’t even recommend this to people because it’s so interpersonal. Like, I don’t know who else out there gets the message this film I conveying but to those that do I nod my head at you in acknowledgment because truly the real lifers feel this shit. That part about when homie broke his arms and got new hobbies and a new life was grippy for me because I feel Like that the route I was destined to take maybe with my injury, but I haven’t been able to put skateboarding out of my mind at all even after seeing my fucking bone sticking out. It truly is a wild experience to be caught in the whirlwind of “having a thing”. This is art Kavon, deep shit, love the style and the interwoven interviews and skate footage. Thank you for making this!

[@DownhillSteez]

Been waiting for this one and it did not disappoint. Super stuff

[@marekslifestyle]

Really nice and honest. I enjoyed it very much! Thanx guys

[@teamv8longboards]

Been wanting this since the chimini event last May. So hyped.

[@slowboistv6691]

[@Sewer_Surfers]

i need this made into a trilogy. better than lord of the Rings

[@aaronplvan9301]

Great take y'all, this is a good insight to the scene

[@dexter29858]

This made me want to start riding again I haven't touched my board in about four years since I tore my ACL. Now Im gonna relearn slides lol

[@davidbolduc828]

Beautiful story from a skaters point of view. The accompanying music is so well matched to the tempo of the action.

[@donovan3625]

This was a spiritual experience. Thank you.

[@tlow87]

Will’s commentary at 13:00 is lovely

[@logstriketech6360]

This has truly been fuckin incredible to watch. Puts the REAL in what skating is like and the life it brings. Just beautiful

[@JezusCinco]

This was very nice! There's been lots of moments where I was like "damnn nice shot!!" Calming and exciting!

[@alexdehmel535]
