What are you all watching to get hyped?

I have been getting back into skateboarding, and watching a lot more on YouTube.

I have been enjoying Dan Corrigan's channel, and I've enjoyed seeing the elements that make up a pro team like Powell.

There's also podcast style shows I've been watching, like The Nine Club, or Hawk versus Wolf.

Having been out of the skate scene for the past decade or two, what have I missed out on, and what are you guys getting hyped on?

camera advice

My 6 year old son has been skateboarding for almost a year, he likes it a lot and I'm very proud of him. I've filled up my phone taking videos of him.

He's approaching the age where he'll be able to skateboard at the school without me, and while I'm happy to go watch him often, I recognize he won't always want me there supervising.

I'd like him to be able to film himself, can anyone weigh in on good options for him? The idea is mostly to document, and to review so he can see that he is achieving his goals etc. Picture quality is not really required for those goals.

I think these are what would be good:

-easy to control -easy to aim -Easy to review footage -robust (I'd also like to be able to take it skiing) -slow motion mode (he loves seeing slow motion videos from my phone)

Do you guys have any pointers I haven't thought of? Any recommendations? Go-pro? Insta 360? Idk....
