GVK #76: Random Homeless Footage
Hello all. The Skatebarn closed (Eugene Is Bummed) so the closest vert ramp is in California. For shame. The reason why this is relevant is Payton the first kid in the video drives all the way from Seattle to skate this indoor bowl and has a membership. If I had $19,000 I would start A […]

GVK #70: Fork it over.
A solstice miracle. All the major Blogs were represented E.P.M., H.O.M.O.S, Skate and Annoy. These parks on the Olympic Peninsula are a lot of fun. The road to Forks is out there. You feel as though you could see SACWATCH cross the road at any time. Make the trip, say hi to Josh, and practice […]

GVK #65: MC’s 50th
Almost everyone we know likes Mark Conahan and would wish him a Happy Birthday, even if it is two weeks late. ALMOST everyone. Here’s some footage of a pre-rained out session at his own bowl dojo. It was one windy day gusting to 30mph, sticks and leaves were lethal objects. We braved the day and […]

GVK #64: Nothing to See Here
Just checking in with kids. Over the course of 2-3 years these guys have progressed out of their pre-pubescent kick flips into some really mature skaters. Full of pubecences. It is easy to make a good video with good subjects. Enjoy GVK Out. This has nothing to do with the image above.

GVK #61: Chariots of Perspire
Drama, drama, drama. I created drama with slow motion. I actually just figured out how to use the slow motion on my new camera. Sixty frames per second instead of 30. It’s apparent where the old technology comes in when I’m using my old camera. It appears as stop-action. The new one is smooth as […]
