Modus Operandi is one of the first skate videos I watched. There are so many good memories connected to these images. The video came out in 2000 which is also the year I got into skateboarding. I will be posting more. You can easily find the other posts connected to skateboarding by clicking the word "SKATEBOARDING" under the title of the post.
