Our entire world is made of contrasts. Opposites are important and it’s a well-known fact that opposites attract each other. Even the Chinese philosophy taught us the positive effect of opposing forces with the yin and yang. In a black and white film of a special kind skatedeluxe teamrider Denny Pham, Vladik Scholz and Jost Arens play with these contrasts.

Red Bull - Checkmates: Monochrome Welt mit Denny Pham

To connect the entire diversity of opposing forces with skateboarding, the boys built a set of monochrome obstacles where their tricks almost completely merge with the environment. It’s definitely a nice idea and all the film crew did a nice job! Well done!
