Issue #08 Puzzle VM
2000, 38 minutes
Current Rating: 3 out of 5 stars
This Bangers and Mash of a video from Puzzle is as European as it gets. Volume 8 is 38 minutes of strictly Euro skateboardery. Highlights include the 1999 Eurocup in Munster, Germany, spotlight on Goodtimes Skateboard Company, and older Bastien Salabanzi footage. Featured skate spots are in Switzerland, Spain, and Australia. Even though Australia isn’t really part of Europe, one should keep in mind that they are the ones that sent all of their "bad seeds" there. And now look at it... sexy blondes that surf. Way to go, Euros...

You would think that with all the Euros skating nowadays that this video would be the Queens' tits. Puzzle is the overseas version of the States' 411. Only Puzzle doesn't have any dynamic introductions by old pros. The filming is a little shaky at times and the hip-hoppity soundtrack gets monotonous. I expected more bad teeth, but they looked alright for the most part.
