That was something, all right.
What ever happened to those advertisements where they actually advertised the product by telling you awesome it was and why it was so awesome? Now we just see vague things that tell us nothing like a bag blowing in the wind or a man describing the history of Russia.
PUI.
Saw these at wal-mart. 20$ Cheap ass shoes but I guess if you dont beat on them they'll work.

lacks explosions, EXTREME 90's music, people high-fiving and yelling YEEAAAH.

Whenever I skate airspeeds they just disintegrate... Sure, they're cheap, but you get what you pay for.
If it didn't say "Airspeed Shoes" in the title, I'd have thought they made skateboards. What would have helped is focusing more on the shoe, by having the camera closer or zoomed in more, so we see more of the shoe, and less of the board. If it were me, I'd probably have done a close-up shot on the shoe, where the skater has his board hanging over the edge of a ramp, with his foot on the tail of it, ready to go down the ramp. I'd probably even combine the showing of the logo with that, dissolving from the shot of the skater rolling away that you have at the end. I think just with something 'small' like that, the whole thing would have been clearer to the audience. I think also it could have been a little faster paced, with more shots of the skater doing tricks, but I don't know what/how much footage you had and what of that was useable. Well, there's my $0.02.
