Id say pretty good, i would just try to stay a bit lower in some clips, and a bit shaky in a few

yeah pretty shaky, keep him more centered i guess and dont jerk the camera much when the skater moves (keep motion smooth)
as for editing, try to make it go more with the song, and keep the title text the same, i think u used two different fonts.
colors were pretty darn good. do more longlens your LL is good!

lines were shaky, try holding the cam with two hands. time your pushes with the skaters pushes. get a little closer as well, dont be afraid for the lens. a couple lines you werent low enough, get downnnnn. there were a couple ass angles in there, avoid that as much as possible. and yes, they were avoidable. you got quite good colors through that first bit, then they slacked off. some of them had too much blue tint, what cam are you using? also when the sky was overexposed and you were in the shade, that seemed to be when alot of the blue came out. make sure you re-white balance when you change lighting enviornments. and remember to keep all your camera motions smoooooothhhhhh. it also looked like one of the kickflips right before the black kids 10 set ollie was filmed through a zoomed in fisheye, dont do that. and dillbert was spot on, your long lens is good.
for the record guys, try not to repeat what anyone else said. if you are going to add something or modify something thats already been stated with your own differing opinion, go for it. but dont just mirror what has already been said.

okay i will. some of this is old. i improved a little bit. still just need practice. i dont focus on filming but i want to be decent at it. i dont know much about the colors but im learning. tmk that kickflip was filmed zoomed fisheye. it was just a whatever but i now wish i took it off. i will try some more LL shots thanks. This footage is actually filmed with a D-SLR camera that has video, costed about 250 i believe.
