Remember the after credit montages in skate videos? You know, after the VHS tape went black and you’d think the video would be over, only to find one more party montage? Raspa’s Tapes is kind of an homage to that, where we throw our friend and filmer Alex Raspa in random places and watch him get drunken footy.
For our second edition of Raspa’s Tapes, we had Raspa hang out with the Diamond crew in NYC for a couple of days. They rented an AirBnB mansion in midtown Manhattan and Raspa filmed skating during the day and party hijinx at night. A lot of the footage turned out kinda sloppy but we managed to salvage a quick coherent edit for your sober viewing pleasure.
