Yeah it’s the same joke I used the last time I talked about the Uganda Skateboard Union about a year ago. It looks like they have a new blog running, and one of the best things on it, aside from all the helping humanity and everything, is the preview for the video documentary. The preview itself rivals any GVK, and even manages to one up it with the addition of video effects. The Doctor has some stiff competition from the Boardmaster, who is hell bent on eradicating the twin evils of idleness and chess, from the looks of the video.
Uganda Skateboard Union’s Video Preview
After you check out the video, be sure to head on over to the official site and blog to find out what they’ve been up to. Looks like some good progress. Tony Hawk and Birdhouse have been very active in helping the youth of Uganda gravitate towards skateboarding instead of carrying rifles.

that was inspiring…their natural stoke and enthusiasm is contagious!
when you see how much work it is for them to create a brick…it makes their skatepark that much more impressive. Apparently it does take a village…

Come skate my friends. The Boardmaster rules! There’s some heavy stoke going in Uganda. That’s full-on skateboarding.
