Weird & Revered In Panama

April 24, 2019

The Weird and Revered crew put on some serious miles while working on their new “Vagabond Squad” video that’ll be dropping next month. One of the trips they took brought them to Panama where the spent time cruising spots and skateparks, as well as took in the sights, did some swimming and more. Here’s a look at a bunch of footage from the trip they didn’t use for the DVD.

“Weird & Revered in Panama” is the crew’s third web video for this pre-DVD series.

Back in February 2018, Thomas Henderson, Jesse Baraniuk, and Justin Schwanke ventured to Panama for a filming trip. Aside from a few days in a beach town called San Carlos, the trio spent most of their time in Panama City. With a small riding scene, intense traffic, and extremely tight security, it soon became apparent that stacking footage would be tough. The boys did capture a handful of DVD clips, but they ultimately decided to take things in stride and enjoy the cultural activities that the city has to offer. This video is a representation of the more “relaxing” moments of their trip, both on and off the bike.
