The soundtrack is the EP &#8220;EME NZHINGA&#8221; from our friend\/ artist Nzhinga AKA Salvinha. This video is dedicated to those who always supported us, especially Bana and our friends, and to those that feel skateboarding as part of their life.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The excellent filming and editing techniques, by Duarte Gaiv\u00e3o (who has been skateboarding for over 12 years) and Gon\u00e7alo Domingues (who has been skateboarding for over 15 years), create suspense as the spots are not fully revealed until they are rolled up on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Duarte and Gon\u00e7alo and the homies are inspiring a skateboard movement they call OMAIS featuring some of the most creative skateboarders that this area of Portugal breeds. \u201cRa\u00edzes\u201d features contemporary skateboarding while paying respect to the \u201890s, with pure fun and a few H-Street throwback vibes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As Duarte explained, \u201cThis is video was done mostly in our hometown of Oeiras and nearby locations to show more of our small village and keep doing skate videos with friends. \u00d3MAIS is the organization we created in order to reach more people in Oeiras and around the world.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than a movement, \u00d3 + represents expression, positivism and its origins: friendship, skateboarding and the Municipality of Oeiras.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00d3MAIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?redir_token=Y0cLYy4M1MMw9VP9Ogv-Hjp56pd8MTU3NzU3Njg0NEAxNTc3NDkwNDQ0&amp;q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.omaiskate.com&amp;event=video_description&amp;v=FQsTTdQTyC4\">http:\/\/www.omaiskate.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>INSTAGRAM: @o__mais <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?redir_token=Y0cLYy4M1MMw9VP9Ogv-Hjp56pd8MTU3NzU3Njg0NEAxNTc3NDkwNDQ0&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fo__mais%2F&amp;event=video_description&amp;v=FQsTTdQTyC4\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/o__mais\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; @nzhingamusic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/redirect?redir_token=Y0cLYy4M1MMw9VP9Ogv-Hjp56pd8MTU3NzU3Njg0NEAxNTc3NDkwNDQ0&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fnzhingamusic%2F&amp;event=video_description&amp;v=FQsTTdQTyC4\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/nzhingamusic\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ACCOMPLISHMENT AND EDITING: Duarte Gaiv\u00e3o<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PRODUCTION: OMAIS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IMAGES: Duarte Gaiv\u00e3o and Gon\u00e7alo Domingues<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ADDITIONAL IMAGES: Pedro Cabral, Ivo Barata, Francisco Pardal and Gon\u00e7alo Vilardeb\u00f3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MUSIC: <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/nzhingamusic\/sets\/eme-nzhinga\">https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/nzhingamusic\/sets\/eme-nzhinga<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ACKNOWLEDGMENTS: Bana, Samuel and Ta\u00eds, Pedro Cabral, Micas, Nzhinga, Jandira and Oeiras<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"614\" height=\"346\" src=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes-614x346.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-77074\" srcset=\"https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes-614x346.png 614w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes-600x338.png 600w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/juicemagazine.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Raizes.png 853w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just over an hour south of where some of the biggest waves in the world crash on the coast of Nazare, there is a talented crew of skateboarders making use of their hometown\u2019s unique spots in Oeiras, Portugal.&nbsp; \u201cRa\u00edzes\u201d means \u201cRoots\u201d, when translated into English, but there\u2019s no translation needed for this video.
