Do this for every country ever, and you'll have the best skate series out there.
Yo that's dope. So many of these guys come from tough places. They're so humble, just happy to take care of the family by skating.
Ain't more true.
We're at a stage where everyone is secretly thirsting to understand how other people around the world are having it and it's the best when there's a common context through which relate, here it being skateboarding.
This was fucking beautiful.
It sure was! 🙌
Jenkem just leveled up with this piece.
Amazing work to everyone involved, this was beautiful.
Yes. Good call, Ian!
hearing the 1979 acoustic cover being played in the background by madars just made my entire week
Hell yeah, it put me in the mood for some smashing pumpkins.
My favourite song to play on the guitar, that was so sweet to hear
Straight goosebumps
ah i KNEW that sounded familiar!!
put it up somewhere for download please? @jenkemmag
I just wanted to skate idk what to do with the money. Wow so humble what a solid dude.
Probably the coolest skater you’ve gotten to meet, dude is so humble and cares so much for those around him
I gotta say I teared up a little towards the end. Such a good one Madars and Jenkem! ❤
Definitely got me a bit emotional!!
What a beautiful family
What a beautiful video, he is one of the greatest in my opinion. I met Madars like 5 years ago when he came to Argentina ,we had a session together in a park and he was so nice to me and my friends! He knew a lilttle bit of spanish because he told me he lived in Spain a couple of years. I'll never forget that day!
He’s a likeable, humble guy. His series reminds me of Anthony Bourdain’s show in some ways. Very glad to see his head is with his family and Country. A great role model for todays kids.
Beautiful work. Greetings from Lithuania to our Baltic brothers!
Hope Jenkem will find a reason to come visit us one day
Jenkem. Always doing it right. I love the way Ian approaches everything he does with a combination of curiosity, humor, respect, and a genuine love for our thing--skateboarding.
How could you not love both Madars and Jenkem? And these credits have early 2000s full length credit vibes, like This Is Skateboarding Tracy Kid Loco vibes, nostalgia, love for skateboarding, fun and good music
This reminds me of Vice before they became terrible. Really great work and I learned a lot about Madars, gave me a lot of respect for the guy.
That kid taking photos for Ukraine with that converted camera set up was awesome. 💙💛
that's me)
This is really something else. Truly filling the gap with this type of content. The editing, storyline, music... Amazing work JENKEM. Love from Paris
Amazing piece. Thank you Madars, Ian, Josh, Jenkem.
MADARS APSE IS A RADIANT SOUL, AN INSPIRATION
THANKUU JENKEM FOR THIS VIDEO
Man he’s such a one of a kind type guy. Love to see it, salt of the earth
Best skateboarder to ever do it, love Madars!
Best dude, great ambassador. His handstand stunts never get old.
This was a piece of art, history and just a humble motivational video.
If you keep up with these kinds of videos, Jenkem is going to go way beyond a skateboarding audience.
Great portrait piece. Thank you Jemkem!
Thank you Ian for the great content. Greetings from Germany!
Again, quality journalism.
Last clip was bonkers! I really liked this piece
Thank you jenkem Thank you Madars, your positivity and sincere love for your family, people, and skateboarding really shines as a bright light that stays with us all and inspires us all to be better people and better skaterboarders. 🙏
I think your 14 year old self would look up to you and be proud of what you’ve done for skateboarding in your life and home country
I went to Riga last year and it was amazing, would highly recommend! Great people, great skating
absolutely amazing and Madras is a top bloke
Enjoyed that very much thank you
Ian Michna and Madars are both massive blessings to this industry
Sending prayers to the families in Latvia and surrounding countries. That there will remain peace and prosperity. Much love to Madars and his family. ❤
This was such a perfect doc. Thank you Jenkem!!
This piece is one of the reasons I love Jenkemso much
wow what a pleasant surprise seeing jenkem come to Latvia! thank you guys ! great video!
absolutely loved this. great subject, great appreciation for latvia, and great story. the skating is just the reason for the video
So good. Love this
thanks Madars, Ian, Jenkem, you guys never fail to inspire our media, Shoutout from Indonesia
How can anyone not like madars!! so kind so humble
very interesting video, enjoy it immensely
Beautiful video. Thank you Jenkem
absolutely fascinating story and beautiful people. big ups Jenkem!
Good piece. Madars is dope
For a country of less than two million inhabitants to have produced both a skateboarder and a blader of the year speaks volume about the kind of scene it offers. And for a small town like Ventspils, to host what was once one of the biggest action sports event in Europe, also says a lot.
Latvian people shine through not only talent and creativity, but also great humility. Madars is a great example and positive influence, thanks for taking the time to check in with him and visit the Baltics!
Now that you've been, you might not be surprised to hear that Latvia is the kind of place you end up going back to, indeed.
A really fascinating story, excellent work Madars & Jenkem thank you for this wholesome content.
One of the best on and off the board.😊
love these travel hangouts
What a great watch. Top job Jenkem. All the best Madars.
This is fantastic!
jenkem: on point content as always! thanks guys
Thanks for putting this together.
You guys make the best skate content. Cheers.
Jenkem is the best skate media, no question at this point.
That was the most wholesome skate doc I've seen
Madars Apse is what every skater should strive to be and accomplish. Travel the world, see different cultures, help grow skateboarding as a whole and yes make sponsors happy why because they are the ones who let you skate for a living! I hope they continue the red bull skate tales with him for as long as they can! Madars Apse you're a real one! much love from canada!
Hell yeah, this was awesome

Yo big ups to all y'all - that intro was how it should be done - DAYUM this whole piece is frickin banging

Latvia is such an interesting place, I feel like the world really should know more of its history. It’s got SO much history, medieval, pre/post Industrial Revolution, Soviet, post soviet
incredible piece guys, this was amazing.

What a good dude. More long form like this.
This was such an amazing watch, thanks Jenkem and madars
He's a genuine kind soul.

This is gold. All the best to Madars! 👏
This video is glorious. As a skater studying nationalism within the Russian Empire, Soviet Union, and the patriated Russian State post Cold War this is so fascinating
Loved this great job👏
Keep crushing the content!
Awesome piece! This is why Jenkem is one of the best out there. Can't wait to finally visit Latvia in October.
Heart of gold. Beautiful family, people and country. Always started with skateboarding- you guys killed it with this one
Loved this. Thank you jenkem and Madars!
great video
This is so good. Love this documentary so much. Fresh, bigfun, lowkey👊🏾 Very Detailed
great video, interesting, wholesome, good vibes only
Madars is a good skater and a good man.
Man, that got me right in the heart.
I thought Madars was cool, but hell, we got Lithuanian Crocodile Dundee playing for the Orlando Magic. What an amazing family.
If more people were like Madars, the world would be a beautiful place.
