Watch Barney Page section below:

Dimensions is Motives first full length video since they were founded by ex Blueprint pro Rob Selley in 2006, it’s directed by Ciaran O’Connor, many of you will already have come across it on the cover of the October issue of Sidewalk.

The current Motive line up consists of Sean Smith and Leo Smith who you should recognize from DC shoes, Dylan Hughes who had a section in the welsh scene video Who? and Dave Snaddon, Paul Karter, Layth Sami, Jack Edwards and Barney Page.

Jack Edwards opens up the DVD with some smooth and technical ledge work, with his smooth light footed style he floats down sets, not a mind blowing section as we’ve come to expect from skate videos these days, but it proves Motives intentions as a UK board company, a decent start to Dimensions.

Next up is Paul Karter a more aggressive skater, he hacks at gaps and pulls out a huge bluntslide. The only skater who seems to skate any transition and even if its very little at that, not a bad section overall maybe just a little rough around the edges.

Layth Sami’s section is full of bangers! His smooth style flows with some long technical manuals and he has bags of switch tricks to throw down some hefty sets. A short section from Leo Smith is up next, his style is amazing to watch and just makes big sets look so easy, shame there isn’t more footage of him. Keeps your eyes open for the closing tricks!

Dylan Hughes following on from his excellent part in Who? early last year, he yet again proves why he is one to watch. He has a good all round style, showing of his quick feet with some crazy double grinds. Watch out for the frontside flip alley oop over the rail! This is a great section and I’m sure we will be seeing a lot more from him in the future. The friends section filler follows with a bit of excess footage, doesn’t add much to the DVD but worthy of a watch.

Barney Pages another up and comer you need to keep your eyes on, he is full of steeze and he throws down some big tricks, his pop especially in switch goes on for days. Look out for switch front bigspin drop to bank! His rail skills aren’t too shoddy either throwing in tricks like switch 360 front shuv to front board 180 out with ease!

Next up is Dave Shaddon another with a real smooth style. He tares up nollie with a big tre over a bench and the most stylish full cab flips I have seen. In my opinion his closing trick is the best on the DVD!

Sean Smith bring things to a close they way you would expect him to! By flipping in, out, off and over anything. He provides an onslaught of tricks over one of the blocks at the MK theater, his style is so smooth and his standard of his skating shows with some long technical lines, the best all round section in this feature.

It also includes a good amount of extra footage and a feature of their Lille and Brussels tour.

If you didn’t get this when it was on the cover of Sidewalk I suggest you track it down, all the skaters have pretty diverse sections and unlike most DVD’s with Dimensions there are no sections I can’t bare to sit through. The music throughout is instrumental with some nice chilled out hip hop beats leaving the focus fully on the skating! This defiantly raises the bar for UK skateboarding but on the downside it leaves every spot in MK well and truly owned!
