This is my first attempt at a video. I threw it together pretty quickly and just recorded everything with my iPhone. I have only been fingerboarding for about 7 months so go easy on my un-clean style. Suggestions/criticism is encouraged whether it's about my editing or fingerboarding.

Damn dude! Seriously impressive considering you have only been fingerboarding for 7 months!!!
Aside from keeping at it, all I can really recommend is playing around with camera angles/views more. A closer view the tricks would be nice...but remember, there is a fine line between not being close enough and being so close that flip tricks disappear from view.
Keep up the good work man! Looking forward to seeing more video and your progression

Thanks so much for the kind words! I definitely want to work on my angles, I just need to figure out a better way to prop up my phone. Or eventually save up for a Go Pro or something. Thanks for the feedback!

Still better than what I can do, and I've been at this for 3 years. Keep going, you've pretty good. Like DoubleDigits said try messing with the angles of your camera and maybe get a phone fisheye?

Much appreciated guys!
For those of you who do film from your phone: what do you use to prop your phone up? I just leaned mine against a book and it made it difficult to get better angles.
