A. Skate - Pepsi Refresh Project.

[matbroomfield]

Hey Levi, that's a nice thing to do man. I must admit I got visions of kids who can barely stand being put onto wheels, but I'm guessing it's not like that. But like others have said, anything that shows that skaters aren't just a bunch of selfish immature assholes has gotta be good! :-)

[eliteskater08]

@matbroomfield I don't know if it's the same where you live, but skaters have a bad rap here in the US because of the stereotypes. I feel that it's my duty as a young adult that loves skateboarding, and a philanthropist to help erase the stereotypes that have been placed on our heads. Granted, there will always be skaters that are into it for the hardcore side, but outsiders should know that we aren't all hoodlums.

[spencerg1312]

Yea im a sucker for those type of things to!

[fullyclaired]

Tomasthesk8dude a.skate was just in Ireland....

[Tomasthesk8dude]

@fullyclaired I know, I was there

[arwalsh2015]

Nice vid! Kool how they teach kids to skate!

[eliteskater08]

@arwalsh2015 From what I've heard and seen watching their videos they get those kids to open up really well using skateboarding as a tool.

[ZAUG41]

The sad thing is, someone who doesnt even skate is probably gonna win this.

[eliteskater08]

@ZAUG41 Which contest? The one that A.Skate is in, or the one that we're all in by voting for them?

[fullyclaired]

@eliteskater08 @ZAUG41 no, the 2 people who will get chosen if a.skate wins will be deserving :) promise!

[why2ate]

eliteskater wont respond to this comment

[eliteskater08]

@why2ate Sure wont.

[grimcity]

You sir, are the man. So stoked on this clip... hell yeah!

[eliteskater08]

@grimcity I do what I can. Normally I would have stuck around and responded to comments for a few hours, but it was nice out side so I went skating instead.

[grimcity]

@eliteskater08

Well nobody's gonna judge you for that! About to go do the same! Cheers my friend!

[NoProSkate]

is there any age limit?

[eliteskater08]

@NoProSkate None that I know of.

[Mytokondrion]

For a minute I thought you said "trip to Uganda, which if frickin awesome". lol.

[eliteskater08]

@Mytokondrion That would be pretty sweet but I don't think it would be very skate related.

[epicskate09]

I wanna se a vid of u skating cause you seem like ur practically a pro so make a skate vid pleeease :(

[eliteskater08]

@epicskate09 I'm no where near being a pro, but if you want to see me skate keep an eye on the channels that I linked in the description.

[CruisingThruLife717]

[eliteskater08]

@CruisingThruLife717 WAZAAAAAAA!?

[Prox1015]

@JuSt4cOmm3nTs enjoy your diabetes

[TimothyLinkous]

This is really good. And freakin shot in the dark, do you like boobies?

[pandaroo5247]

[eliteskater08]

@pandaroo5247 Send me some money for them. You can get them off of their website.

[punkrockgirlpa]

[eliteskater08]

@punkrockgirlpa Make sure you only hurt the surly ones.

[punkrockgirlpa]

@eliteskater08 will do... :) thanks for the tip

[skatebboard]

Did you film some footage, when you were with them?? Cause you should make a skate video ;)

[eliteskater08]

@skatebboard I don't film, but they filmed me.

[mez8ccompetitzione]

I live in Portugal and i know i can't run on the contest but i watched the video till the end. Im so gealous of the guy that wins all that!!!! im not going to america and im not going to the berrics but every night i still dream of skating that shit

.

[eliteskater08]

@mez8ccompetitzione A viewer in Portugal? Siiiiiick.

[mez8ccompetitzione]

@eliteskater08 just a small country in europe with almost no skateparks and where boards cost twice as much as in US. Sick spots tough

[bob198765432]

@eliteskater08 and a viewer from germany

[kurtits1]

@eliteskater08 Ill Check That Shit Up I Like Pepsi But Prefer Too Drink Water But Ill Just Have A Brake For A While Thanks By The Way.

[googlevideosrule]

gay

[eliteskater08]

@googlevideosrule Why do people keep coming out to me on Youtube? Do I look like Oprah?

[havenovideo]

sounds sick!

[2ftsk8r]

I like Coke better... but xD that's cool.

[eliteskater08]

@2ftsk8r I usually prefer Coke too but if means I get to help clean up the image of skateboarding and help out some kids in need I'm willing to choke down some Pepsi.

[2ftsk8r]

@eliteskater08 Exactly man. I don't mind Pepsi. Its good they're doing this. 

[kurtits1]

So In Ireland We Have That Shit Too?

[eliteskater08]

@kurtits1 It probably depends on where you get the Pepsi. Some of the stores that sell them here don't have the yellow capped drinks. I think it's mostly vending machines that don't have them. I don't know for sure that they have them in Ireland but it looks like several other European countries have them.

[loxton93]

Everybody should be charitable :)

[eliteskater08]

@loxton93 I agree. Unfortunately, not everyone is. Some people just need a little motivation, and this contest is perfect for that.

[HOLZYxxxORxxxDIE]

cant find those in germany

[eliteskater08]

@HOLZYxxxORxxxDIE Laaaaame. You can still text in votes if you have a phone though.

[YeahCain2]

Awww shieeet! I need to check out if pepsi are doing the same thing in the UK

[eliteskater08]

@YeahCain2 Rofl, 3 out of my 4 comments so far are from my UK viewers. Nice.

[YeahCain2]

@eliteskater08 Us UK kids represent!

Tea and crumpets and all that

[eliteskater08]

@YeahCain2 No kidding. My European subscribers don't play around.

[Tomasthesk8dude]

We had a big fundraiser for A.Skate here at the end of July-mini ramp jam, live bands and legal street drinking. Apparently the photos are going to be in Thrasher.

I've voted for this and will continue to every day

[eliteskater08]

@Tomasthesk8dude Any idea which issue they're going to be in?

[Tomasthesk8dude]

@eliteskater08 Haven't a clue man :(

I'd love to know myself.

It was cool having something like it in Ireland, since not a lot really happens here in terms of internationally-recognised skate events

[askatefoundation]

@Tomasthesk8dude We were just in Cork a few weeks ago! Tony is trying to get all of the locals to vote for the Pepsi grant we are up for! pics are on our flickr page. u can find link on our website. askate.org scroll to bottom and click on flickr logo

[Tomasthesk8dude]

@askatefoundation Yeah, that was it, I was there both days. It was fun, and definitely worth it-the cause couldn't be much better.

Tony FTW. He knows what's up

[askatefoundation]

@Tomasthesk8dude of nice! Well this is Crys, the red head that was there. We had an incredible time! And yes, Tony is a beast. He literally never sleeps. Thank you and take care! We should be back in about 8 months!

[Sk8rToyMachine]

i watched his this morning

[eliteskater08]

@Sk8rToyMachine Watch it again. Help him get to the top of the most viewed/liked/favorited lists.

[Sk8rToyMachine]

@eliteskater08 Yeah... I liked it, and did what he said... already got 11 votes

[alex97k]

Nice vid! i live in sweden and pepsi does this project here too!!

[eliteskater08]

@alex97k Awesome. Support the cause, it would be awesome if one of my subscribers won the trip.

[alex97k]

@eliteskater08 well we can only put up places to vote for and not vote for american places :(

[eliteskater08]

@alex97k Lame. You can still spread the word about the cause though. Like the video on Stumble Upon, Tweet it, post it on Facebook, whatever it takes to get the word out. Just because you can't enter doesn't mean you can't help.

[alex97k]

@eliteskater08 True... True... BTW love ur vids!
