Я в ступоре \:

those are not tetriminos they are quintriminos, 5 squares, dumb ass skaters

Not to out-pedant a pedant, Marty, but those shapes are more properly referred to as pentominoes:

They're a subset of polyominos, a name coined by Solomon Golomb in 1953:

Fittingly enough, pentominoes were Pajitnov's inspiration for creating Tetris, but the diversity of shapes proved too difficult to make the game easily playable, so he settled on tetrominos.

Since they're using pentrominoes instead of tetrominoes, wouldn't they technically be playing Pentris, not Tetris?

This is the most successful skateboarding I've ever seen! Nobody even fell off, which is all I ever see skateboarders do!

Although they could have easily filmed the skating part you see them skating on, and then just run for the overhead shot, or used bikes.

all i gotta say is long boards are wrong boards

those are cool, what kind of boards are they?

The boards are called freebords, you can check them out here: www.freebord.com

those aren't even tetris shapes.. whatever!

@ max: thanks and thats very interesting information, guess i was off, well anyway they suck

Awwww, it's gone!

Those aren't skateboards.

I stopped at the :25 mark I was so bored of this nonsense.

I bet some hack Hollywood hack writer will see this video and write a screenplay based on it for the upcoming ``Tetris'' movie...

Hey I work at the red brick building in the film!(Time frame 0:40-0:45)

The location is at corner of Montgogmery St. and Pacific St. which is financial district of the city and it gets quiet after hours. I'm surprised that cops didn't do anything because bars and dance clubs are one block from the location. Oh, Montgomery street is steep hill, but not as steep as others.

@marty:
It's so funny that all of you call these skateboards! They are freebords. Stupid geeks.
