“Skateboarding Sloth” Art by Catherine Lazar Odell.
Introducing our new Weekly Wrap-Up for Sept 26 - Oct 2, ’15. If you haven’t noticed yet, we do a silly theme each month with our openner pics, and this month we are all about skateboarding sloths—where gettin’ “LIT” translates to chilling hard! Anyway, check below for this week’s collection of videos, photos, stuff, gossip, more things, and rad links to satiate your skate appetite.
First off, we have Bonzing team rider Michael Carson in a video showcasing his new signature MC Cat Board downhill top-mount race deck.
Next up, for those of you who love classic shapes and classic miniramp action, Cody Chapman aka Cold Chap sets up the Jeff Kendall Snake reissue deck and hits the NHS Cannery for Santa Cruz Skateboards!
Brian Petrie of Earthwing Skateboards turned us on to this one. It’s ripper Zakk Hall getting some in Florida, downhill-style, on a set of 95a wheels. Powerslides for days!
While in Oregon recently for the Gullwing Truck Co. tour Pedro Delfino got an insane rail slide which made it in Thrasher as an ad for the November 2015 issue. Here he tells the story of that day and his near meltdown getting the trick. Hard work pays!
Kai Monroe just sent us this crusty little edit featuring the NYCL crew in some lo-fi goodness all over the East Coast. Is that GG Allin track irony or accent? Trust the crust!
Lastly, Justin Rouleau get’s yet another ballin’-ass raw run of Zak Maytum—this time it’s in Italy and features the sound of Texas’ own Ministry and the Gibby Haynes of the Buttonhole Surfers. Thumbs up!!!
