Stargate // “DISKARTE” (2020)

Diskarte by STARGATE ENTERTAINMENT captures the pulse of the streets, where skateboarding isn’t polished, it’s persistent. Shot across Manila, Valenzuela, and Pampanga, the video brings together Christopher Nell, Dhan Lumanas, Michael Joshua Guiao, Irone Ilagan, Titus Tallada, Kurt Arcigal, and Esh Francisco. Filmed by Aris Bantug.

Each rider pushes through and battles it out among pedestrians, cars, killer intersections, and bustling public spaces. Whether it’s backside flips at Manila Bay or improvised lines through Raja Soliman’s cracked plazas, the skating feels intentional but loose. Serious in execution, yet clearly made by a crew of friends just having fun. It’s raw, straightforward, and full of heart.

You feel the city in every clip. It’s part chaos, part beauty—and it genuinely feels like you’re right out there in the streets with them. Diskarte is a love letter to figuring it out with what you’ve got, and a nod to the everyday Filipino skater who cruises, commutes, and makes it happen.
