And while we’re on the topic of King of Kona, it seems fitting that we should link to the fully-VX’d edit that the Gullwing Truck Co. boys came up with! These dudes were skating hard in to the wee hours of the night, well past the dew point as noted by their impromptu longest-standy-on-the-bank nontest. This edit slipped …
We had a blast at the 2014 King of Kona and it looks like the crew at Rayne Longboards did, too! Clear some time in your busy schedule and check out their newly-released recap for a slightly different perspective on Kona’s skating and shenanigans!
James Kelly just made our day. We haven’t seen him for a beat or two as he’s been traveling the world over, but this video from Blood Orange has reminded us why we like him so damn much! He’s an all-around fun guy, wants people to be nice, and he’s willing to laugh at himself—something we’re quite …
As I see it, the Greek philosopher dude Heraclitus said it best back in 475 BCE when he stated that, “Everything flows and nothing stays”. I can’t help but imagine that if there were skateboards back in those days that Heraclitus would have been that dude in the sweet billowing robe, with a picture perfect …
All-around ripper, Pacific Northwest resident, and #TeamSkizzer co-founder Alicia Fillback has a new project/outlet/stoke-provoker for her artwork and creative radness. Not only does Alicia rip on the slopes, but she’s also a talented illustrator. We’re fully impressed (but not caught off-guard) with the level of excellence that her designs have achieved. The project is known simply as The Animus Code. Have …
Skateboarding with JM Duran just looks fun. Downhill traffic surfing, a solo longest manny contest, and the longest backside double-handed Coleman slide in the history of skateboarding* (good thing this guy has a puck sponsor) chalks this up to be yet another entertaining raw run from the dudes at Blood Orange. *We can’t guarantee that this …
If you’ve ever heard the name Sergio Yuppie, you already know he’s been riding skateboards down hills for a long time. If you don’t, this video put forth by the dudes at Abec 11 Wheels will shed some light! Rather than put down a lot of text here, we’re just gonna let you jump straight to …
No Future Skateboards came at us with this promo bro-flick. We weren’t sure what to expect, but we’re glad we gave it a watch. We’re fired up on the weird infomercial cuts, the Maury clips, skating that dude’s driveway/planter/mini-park at 4:33, and the rest of the skateboarding in general. This is just their first edit and …
Jacksonville’s Kona Skatepark has been around since the early days of the skateboarding we have come to know and love. (1977 to be more precise.) Home to a large snake-run, plenty of ground space for camping, and Florida’s totally radical climate, it’s no wonder that Kona Skatepark has become the destination of choice for hundreds of North …
Nothing like a good bit of skateboarding and free-form jazz to go with your early morning coffee! So what if it’s no longer morning? We’ll drink our early morning coffee whenever we please. DON’T TELL US HOW TO LIVE OUR LIVES! Unless, of course, you’re going to tell us to live it like Eric Jensen …
The PDX Sk8 Bus and the Sunset Sliders Bus recently headed south to get some much needed sunshine along with some shralp time on some of the best downhill skateboarding action the west coast has to offer . Along the way, they met up with SkateHouseMedia, Brotrain, us, and a slew of other shredders. . . shit …
One year ago (from tomorrow to be specific) it was announced that James Kelly would begin riding for Caliber Truck Co. That year has passed, Mr. Kelly has been an all-around badass (as expected) and is now making further moves toward complete and utter world domination. James is, as of today, the newest team rider for Blood …
And so begins day two of Agenda Long Beach. The sun has barely risen above whatever those hills are to our east and already we have been notified of a new category of skateboarding to reach the market. This new category of “speedboarding” a.k.a. “downhill longboarding” is finna be the next biggest thing and the …
The crew at Rayne Longboards is comin’ in hot for 2014! We have just received official, legally-binding, til-death-do-they-part (maybe) confirmation that Rayne Longboards will now be distributed within the USA by NHS, Inc. If you’re unfamiliar with the workings of NHS, take note that they’re known throughout the community for their distribution of several other …
Stickers are a communicative art form and are simply just fun to slap on shit! Stickers can be a way to rep or to claim a crew, a region, or a company. They also communicate beauty in artistry, creativity, as well as style. Stickers can be applied to most everything—with a semi flat and smooth …
