Ebay Watch: December 2013
December was disappointing this month. It used to be that you would get some bank-breaker decks going off in December, as wives and girlfriends found the perfect xmas gift for their skate obsessed partners!

Ebay Watch: August-October 2013
So here we have it, the three-month compendium that gets me up to date! I know I know. You wanted three separate ones. But this is the best I could do!

GVK# 89: Halloween at Burnside
The park still goes off all the time but Halloween is reserved for serious ripping. I did miss a lot of footage us Daddy’s need to take our kiddies out for sticky treats. If this description sounds goofy it’s because there was chicken cooking at my house when I wrote it. It is impossible to […]
