Hiroki Muraoka "Third Shift" Video Part and Interviews

Vague Mag interviewed John Valenti, Pat Stiener and Hiroki Muraoka on Traffic Skateboards new release 'Third Shift' AND uploaded Hiroki part from the video.

V: How was it filming in the US compared with Japan? Do you see any similarities between East Coast spots and Tokyo?

H: I think that New York and Tokyo have a lot of similar style spots so I was able to do the same style skating, but it’s so much more chill in New York compared to Tokyo because the kick out in Tokyo is so quick.

V: What were some of your highlights from staying in and travelling around the US?

H: We went to the beach one day and a random dude sold cocktails there, he gave me free cocktails which were delicious. We then took a boat ride, that was super fun.
