38 Specials..

Image
Just want to give a quick shout out to anyone that skated during the 90's and lived through the small wheel phase. These are 38 Specials that I went through in a week. Please skateboarding, let's not go there again..

Figured it was about time to put some Natas on here.. and seeing as you can't really mention one without the other....

Newshit...

So.. I guess the Battle at the Berrics is back. Sort of excited about it, but at same time it's like eh (shoulder shrug). I watched the Shane O'Neil vs. Ishod Wair one. Have to say that Ishod might be slightly better than I had thought he was. But seriously..why the f does Berra always have to read the rules? If you've watched I, II, and III you can probably recite them by heart. In other news... loving these mini dv clips. and on a side note. Found this place.. whoo-wee!!

Couple old gems..

Just a couple old ads that I came across recently. This is a pre-Venture Caroll and a beastly Sheffey ollie. That Vallely photo in the bottom right creeps me out...

"Skater Dan"

Image
This is a picture of my buddy Dan who lives in Brazil. He is hands-down the best skater I've ever seen in person and I've seen a lot. We were going to try filming before he went down there permanently but it didn't work out. You'll just have to take my word for it that this guy murders it on a skateboard. Hopefully I'll make it down there sometime..

Just remembered that I had a pamphlet of stuff from the early 90's that was mentioned in Salman Agah's interview at The Chrome Ball Incident . I gotta' give credit where it's due. These interviews are f'n amazing..

I'm still here.

What's up, I just realized I haven't done anything on here for a while.. I've just been super lazy lately with the holidays and then...yeah. No excuses really. I've been skating and checking out a lot of stuff online. Hate to say it but the only things I've really been excited about skateboarding-wise are Paul Machnau's part for Red Star (?) skateboards and Ronnie Creager's Sunday Funday. Have to say that I was a little bummed out that The Berrics hyped up their Dae Won part only to charge for it..
