A visual skate collection by Dave Bachinsky.
Every video is filmed from a birds-eye view; it's a skaters line in a pool and edited so it loops forever. 25% goes directly to the skater. The Roll Forever collection will have a total of 100 video NFTs.

"Some of these pools are the 80's American dream. Masterpieces left abandoned."

"I’ve been skateboarding for 33 years and it has led me to some of the most unique places. A friend said it best: ‘skateboarders are like modern day pioneers.” Last summer, I was meeting up with friends at backyard pools, skateparks, and abandoned bowls in the middle of nowhere. I had this vision of filming them doing their line with my drone and somehow getting it to loop seamlessly, as if the clip never stops. The idea as a whole sounded simple, but I had no idea it would take me countless hours of trial and error to achieve what I envisioned. I taught myself how to mask, blend frames and so many other tools that I’d never used before. What came from these clips was more unique than I thought. This perspective looked unreal on screen; the shadow play, the environmental elements like birds, trains, and how a skater approaches a certain angle of the pool. Being a builder, I look at some of these pools as pieces of sacred geometry cemented within the earth. With so many adventures for this project, it feels good to take a step back and look at the process, I’m beyond grateful to witness and capture these moments with so many amazing people in some of the most eye-catching of places."
