The theme of this video is: we live our lives crazy, and the ice only intensifies it. "The Crazy Crew" is in reference to the culture of the sport. Xtreme Ice Skaters are creative and unique.

This video also reminds me of the 90's with the 90's rap music with aggressive skating. We just need now the baggy pants and the long skating shorts. I wish I could do it all over again. I will probably take certain pieces of this video and turn it into an exhibition.

I do NOT own the music in this video.

What make and model are his ice skates?

[Prolite]

@spineless93 They're called "Xtreme Ice Skates" and they're expected to be on the market by Summer 2012.

Point taken. I will have to find those vids! (On a lighter note) DOWN WITH THE INSURANCE COMPANIES! Ice over a half-pipe at a local skatepark, that should do it! How did you make a ramp?

[Prolite]

@ocdrums23 Build a wooden ramp and slap some artificial ice on top.

[ocdrums23]

You're missing a few things...

Ramps

Rails

Ledges

Half-Pipes

Not to down play this because I'm no expert skater my-self, but growing up with the X-Games and such the like unless you get major air or grind a rail can say it's the most xtreme......

[Prolite]

@ocdrums23 I've actually used ramps and rails in some of my videos. Search for them. I wanted to build a half-pipe but couldn't afford it. In regards to ledges, I just have no clue how to do that. And to put all of that in an ice rink would be impossible. No rink manager and insurance company would ever permit that. It's an extreme sport, but I never used the phrase "most extreme". I've been to the hospital 4-5 times already with serious injuries fro this sport. That is why I equipment.

show off...

[seashellsandstarsII]

what song is that?

[Prolite]

@ImAussieMate Nobody uses protective equipment because they're both afraid of being embarrassed and they're afraid to try things that might injure them. Forget about the embarrassment dude. When you find yourself in the hospital because you didn't have protective equipment, you're going to wish you did have it on. Take it from me, I've been to the hospital 4 times, 3 of which required stitches and the other one I almost cracked my hip bone. I couldn't walk for 3 weeks.
