Video Review:
Transworld Skateboarding: In Bloom
Sunday February 23, 2003
By: Sean
To be perfectly honest, when I saw the name In Bloom, I had my doubts. And with the picture of Tony Trujillo on the front doing a smith around the pool didn't really draw my attention. But it was the new Transworld video, so I decided to check it out. As the famous quote, "Never judge a book by it's cover", it's right. This video was 100x's better than I thought it would be. There are some sick parts in here from Chris Cole to Paul Rodriguez. For around $25 USD, it's worth a buy.
Featured Boarders: Even Hernandez, Chris Cole, Mike Taylor, Tony Trujillo, and Paul Rodriguez.
Length: 46:51
Price: $25 USD

Music: There's a mix of rap/techno beats. Also, there's some hardcore rock. There is also a few instrumental pieces.

Sections: The video starts off with the new pro Even Hernandez. Now for any of you who had doubts as of why this 15 year old is pro, those will be wiped away. This kid kills everything he skates. From 18 stair f/s boardslides, to switch f/s fliping a big 4, this kid definantly starts the video off good.

Up next comes the man of the moment, Chris Cole. There's not much to say, the sort of speaks for itself. For all of you that haven't seen anything from Chris Cole, your fingers will get red from all the rewinding and play pressing on the remote. The entire section is awsome, not one trick sketched out or not good enough. It's all clean, big stuff. Along with some of Cole's technical side too.

After Chris Cole's part is a small montage. Starts off by showing the Turkey Banks that litterally built right under a highway, with a ton of cement and water. Then there's some street skating, then a few minutes of vert. The music is a instrumental piece, so it's relaxing and goes along with the skating.

Following that, is Mike Taylor's section. This guy is sick. He's got a lot of tech., which is mixed into some pretty big stuff. One thing, he'd blow any one's eye out with his nollie crooks. He mixes his stuff into 2-4 trick lines. His stuff is smooth and flows good. Always a good section to watch again.

After that, there's a small slam section. Some pretty grusome stuff, mostly falls though. But it's the kind of thing you wouldn't be wanting to get out of bed for.

Right after that, comes the veteran: Tony Trujillo. You name it, it's in this section. Concrete parks, stairs, rails, it's all there. With this guy, it's speed, speed, and more speed. He goes super fast, yet still seems to be able to control the board with an uncanny grace. A really long section too, or at least seems so, it's 5 minutes in length.

And last but definantly not least, is Paul Rodriguez. Along with Evan, this kid rips. Switch heel/kickflips over 12 sets, huge rails, lots of tech. It's just unbelievable. Clean, smooth, not to mention switch, what else could you ask for in a section? A great watch.

And of course, there's one more montage section and the credits. Nothing special, but still fun to watch. They conclude the video.

Over all, this is a great video. It is definantly worth the buy, and will keep you occupied for days to come.
