This was fucking beautiful.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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.
Beautiful work. Greetings from Lithuania to our Baltic brothers!
Hope Jenkem will find a reason to come visit us one day
This is really something else. Truly filling the gap with this type of content. The editing, storyline, music... Amazing work JENKEM. Love from Paris
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!
Amazing piece. Thank you Madars, Ian, Josh, Jenkem.
MADARS APSE IS A RADIANT SOUL, AN INSPIRATION
THANKUU JENKEM FOR THIS VIDEO
Best dude, great ambassador. His handstand stunts never get old.
Man he’s such a one of a kind type guy. Love to see it, salt of the earth
This was a piece of art, history and just a humble motivational video.
Thank you Ian for the great content. Greetings from Germany!
Sending prayers to the families in Latvia and surrounding countries. That there will remain peace and prosperity. Much love to Madars and his family. ❤
Best skateboarder to ever do it, love Madars!
That kid taking photos for Ukraine with that converted camera set up was awesome. 💙💛
that's me)
I went to Riga last year and it was amazing, would highly recommend! Great people, great skating
If you keep up with these kinds of videos, Jenkem is going to go way beyond a skateboarding audience.
Again, quality journalism.
Last clip was bonkers! I really liked this piece
absolutely loved this. great subject, great appreciation for latvia, and great story. the skating is just the reason for the video
thanks Madars, Ian, Jenkem, you guys never fail to inspire our media, Shoutout from Indonesia
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
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.
love these travel hangouts
Ian Michna and Madars are both massive blessings to this industry

Thanks for putting this together.
You guys make the best skate content. Cheers.
Jesus Christ “little brother is my big love” I’m fucking tearing up

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
This is a masterpiece in profiles. Very informative and touching. What a real dude. That’s soul right there

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
Madars is a good skater and a good man.
This dude showed us South Africans the best time, in Barca 2009 :-) You are the Best Madars! Thank You For Being So Rad! You really are such a legend!
Jenkem top notch as always. The Wizard must be such a great guy to hang out with.
