AFTER NEARLY A DECADE OF MAKING SKATE VIDEOS shot exclusively on the VHS format, London’s Palace Skateboards have taken a landmark decision to switch it up and ditch this cumbersome, weighty, ludicrously outdated technology—and to replace it with an even more cumbersome, even more weighty, even more ludicrously outdated technology! VHS Palace is dead; long live the new era of Betamax Palace!

A skate video by Palace, filmed in Detroit over a seven-year period (2018–2025).

The Palace Palasonic skate video dropped November 2017, becoming an instant classic. The film clocks in at 40-minutes long, features the exploits of the Palace skate team over a 7-year period, and was shot completely on VHS to give the film a retro, lofi aesthetic.
