Age: 98
Arcadia, California
What up, homies! First off, let me say that Doug Des Autels friggin' rips! His style reminds me a lot of Josh Kalis, and there are tons of gems in this Sponsor Me video, including some really difficult flip-in / flip-out shenanigans on just about every object you could think of, plus some really crazy ledge hammers and a big assortment of technical wizardry. Nice work, Doug!
This is a really good vid filled with some incredible skateboarding, but I gotta admit there are a few things I'm not really into. The "speed-up" and "slow-mo" editing between tricks kinda changes the flow of some of the lines. I'm a fan of the "show it how it is" type of videography, so it's a bummer to see those kind of effects put on such great skating. Remember, less is more. My ex-girlfriend told me that once...ouch.
Also, the music selection. I know it's all personal preference, but the music is a bit too impersonal and repetitive for my liking. Combined with your own personal style and your skating, music can seriously bring a part to life, but it can just as easily take away from it. If you're feelin' the mellow jams, cram some classic De La Soul or A Tribe Called Quest up in that joint and I'll guarantee the whole feeling will change!
Regardless of my petty nit-picking, Doug is super talented, and there is no doubt in my mind that he will find a permanent home in the skateboarding bizz. Thanks for the vid, Doug, and the next noseslide double heel out that you do will be in some brand-new Emerica shoes. Big-ups to Doug! Stay Gold.--Timothy Nickloff, Emerica Sales Manager

i know who he is. he rides for krix. he's in blown out. i guess this is his full part and he's actually really good. could've had more hammers though.
i meant krux i cant type
that was CRAZY!!!!
what the fuck it say that he is 98 years old
hes pretty good for an old timer
oh yeah that dude is on krux...i think its the same dude.
he reminds me of chet thomas...not emerica kinda guy...maybe globe or something like that.
yeah hes rad..but doesnt realy suit emerica
that kid is sick his tricks have there own flow and style from the moment he pops his board till he lands it
Video was great.
No wonder she's your ex-gf now, Tim, I feel ya'.
Fur sure, hiz style remindz me of someone who would skate 4 'es or Globe.
His style was great, but I hated his ender...
awesome
dude, that was sick! good job
skate faster...and too many k-flip noseslides other than that it was all good
song is shitty and wack doesn't go with the skating at all
yeeeeeee! dat waz hella bomb. he needed some punk 4 hiz music maybe and some bigger gapz in da vid.
I remember seeing this exact video part, same edit in one of the old logic videos!, I'm surprised there wasnt a different review of someone else, but the dude undeniably rips, I mean come on!, but I guess your not doing nothing if no ones hating on it, you know?
Doug...I am so proud of you. You are a very talented skateboarder! I admire you for your persistence, the passion you have for skateboarding and following your dream! Good Luck! :)

Good Stuff
i thought he was pretty good but i would of liked to see him go down bigger stuff like all the rest of the emerica team, i think he should go for nike or somthing emerica is more like tricks down big stairs and ledges and stuff like that
THIS FOO IS GOOD!!!
he would fit in at DVS for sure
man dat style is sick
()))___Crayola___)))>
()))___Crayola___)))>
that was awesome
HOLY SHIT!!! I'd like to start off by saying that that kid is fuckin amazing. I dunno though the style doesnt really suit emerica, but who gives a fuck, he was doin shit that made me wanna rip my eyes out of my skull and shove them up my asshole! It was sick shit. Congrats Doug.
()))____Crayola____)))>

he didn't get sponsored?!?!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!??!?!???!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!??!
WTF?
this guy's way better in person!
he was o.k. I just didnt like his style to much...he reminds me of ed tempolton??
sign this guy up for emerica! emerica need some different style in there team to get some more fans shit this guy was fuckin good so is everyone on the team right now so he would fit in perfectly!
yea.... like who the f*** flips in and out on a damn hand rail? yea thats right! now he just needs a sponsor.(from emerica)
hes my friend on myspace haha
Man, he is bustin chris hasslam shit and you still dont sponser him. Flip in and flip out? too sick.
You want skaters who break hammers instead of droppin them, huh emerica?
Imma get some footy and i guess i can try to put it in. i will try to stomp carlsbad, i know where that shit is now. 16 yr old kickflip carlsbad, then frontside flip.
no sponsorship?? emerica needs more techie riders like him!
So he did get sponsored, right? It says that he'll be wearing brand-new Emerica next time he does a noseslide double heel...
.......He's Lucky..... But I skate for fun, not to be sponsored.
no I did not get sponsered if Emerica picks your video you get a free pair of shoes and I do skate for fun but getting sponsered is a bonus
yea doug is a really amazin skater and i get the priveledge of being able to skate with him sometimes, hah he rips every spot a new one ah
doug is freakin tight y'all. this video doesnt even show half his skills. you just wait and see.
I still love that video man. your sick.
i know this guy!!!!
i didnt know that his spectrum of tricks was that wide....
Doug, Man...You friggin' rock! makes me jealous I can't even ollie...LOL

You are amazing!!!
You have a unique style to your skating which seperates you from the rest. Best wishes. Emerica would be lucky to have you. Skate or die.
Awesome footwork man!! Keep it up!!
Hey Doug just showin ya some more love babe!!Even tho im a thousand miles away i support you 100%Love ya babe!!!
i didn't think his style was very good, and the whole video bored me, maybe it was the music.
the dude is good but he dosent fit emerica
WOW!!! that was sick..i like ur style its really snappy!!=).
your mad good, u should get sponsered by emerica
good job doug...
its really good
hez sick!
"VEL" i still love that ()))___Crayola___)))> thing how did u think of that....o ya the kid in the video was really good only i think he should of put the kickflip noseslide to heelflip out 4 his ender instead of the noseslide double heel out even though it looks really hard and cool!!!
Nice flip in flip out shit. That part kicks a lot of the other vids on here in the balls. But the music was a bad choice. But you rip!
I TOLD DOUG TO SEND IN HIS SPONCER ME. I NEW HES ONE OF THE BEST AFTER I SEEN IT. HES FUCKIN CRAZY.

()))___Crayola___)))>
()))___Crayola___)))>
He skates too slow. Is it just me or am I the only one who thinks his skating was sloppy. He had good spots and tried to go tech but everything was too skecthy for me

you have good style, you should be sponsored no matter what.
woah, that was a crazy ender trick
Emerica, you should really put doug on the team. He definitely has the skill and style. This guy has a broad future in skating.
This kid is awsome def sponsor material.
he was sketchy it wasnt just you
that shit got boring after awhile u should have made it shorter
definitely agree about the music. i could see him on lakai or eS or even DC, or maybe even iPath...to me it just seems like he doesn't fit on Emerica somehow. and the ender wasn't even bolts, that bugs me.
that dudes a great skater, idc if he put video effects on

holy shit
dude that was great but emrica definatly doesnt suit ur style. Try eS
o and get some new music, that fucking sucked wat the hell was that anyway?
thanks and its a song by Linkin Park I think teams need people that skate different than the rest of the team if everyone on the team skates alike it can get old
Doug rips he should be sponsered by baker,emerica,kr3w,venture, and bones and maybe boost mobile
this was a killer vid i rlly like it
