Nowadays the “welcome” edit has become an essential part of any company adding personnel to their team but often comes from old pieced-together footage that while rad, doesn’t do much more than provide some visuals for the press release. Not Chris Joslin’s welcome edit for etnies! This kid went balls to the wall for a month to put out a full part that many vets would be lucky to pull off. If this doesn’t make you want to go out and skate right now, we don’t know what will.

You know you’re stackin when you can call an edit like this “extra.” Albert Nyberg has been on a fucking tear lately, heres what didn’t make the cut in etnies Presents: AB&A. It’s impressive to say the least.

Despite having some of the shittiest weather in the world, the kids in England are ripping harder and harder. Check out Exeter’s pride and joy, Barney Page as he puts down a full parts worth in etnies’ latest Excess Baggage.

Axel Cruysbergh learned today why its good to win. Fresh off his taking of the Volcom Damn Am crown etnies has released a banger 4 minute part from Axel that will surely be remembered as one of the stepping stones to a pro career. Enjoy.

To make this video for the launch of the new etnies Marana Vulc, Willow, Nick Garcia and Julian Davidson went out to Slab City in the Colorado Desert of California and added some features to the already super skateable terrain. The results are pretty damn rad. Hit the jump to see the shoe up close.

Having to bring mad shoes with you when you travel sucks. While they aren’t the most helpful if you have to go anywhere that gets colder than 60 degrees, the new etnies Scout Mason Ho colorway are definitely a rad addition to the beach hopping lifestyle. Get a closer look after the jump.

etnies have already got the ball rolling (get it?) on next year’s World Cup with the release of some looks at their Spring 2014 Marana World Cup pack. Since the name of the shoe already sounds like a soccer stadium its a perfect fit although we didn’t realize that Sheckler loved futbol like that. The ill New Zealand all-black is above, hit the jump to peep Brasil, Germany, Jamaica, and unexplicably, a UK/US/France combo.

Despite being the same company, etnies and ThirtyTwo had apparently never collaborated before now. Although that seems hard to believe they definitely did it right for the first time with the ThirtyTwo Degrees of etnies Signature Collection, which matches an etnies High Rise sneaker and apparel kit with ThirtyTwo’s five pro model snowboard boots. Peep Joe Sexton’s above and Chris Bradshaw, Chris Grenier, Scott Stevens and JP Walker’s after the jump.

This beautifully shot and edited video from etnies is supposed to serve as a lookbook for their new Fall 2013 Skyline Collection of weather proofed winter wear but all we can think of after watching it is holy shit can Joe Sexton skate. It almost makes you forget he’s a snowboarder. Skyline Collection hits etnies retailers now.

Welcome edits come out pretty much every week in skateboarding but there is something particularly rad about Julian Davidson’s new etnies edit. Whether it’s the HD cams or Juju’s effortlessly perfect style we’re not sure but we gave this one a few watches in a row. Check it out and you’ll see what we mean.
