Rick Howard for Lakai

This Rick Howard commercial for Lakai is pretty effing great. I had a hard time picking a still frame because I didn’t want to spoil it for you. Yeah, that’s quite a build up. I’d like to think that skateboard commercials would be this creative. It’s weird enough that there are actual skateboard commercials on […]

Baby Paul Cullen (1962-2009)

He was the Z-Boy that had the smallest amount of screen time in the documentary, and he was also the youngest one, hence the name “Baby.” Paul Cullen passed away on the 23rd last week. Cause of death has not been officially made known, but there has been some obvious speculation due to a history […]

Hütteldorf skatepark

Ryan Hass sent in a couple pics of the Hütteldorf skatepark, mostly just to point out the seven stair set that the designers thoughtfully left in the bowl should you decide to slam. There’s also an eight feet deep channel on the opposite end. Where do these things come from? I mean, besides Germany Austria, […]

Trifecta Schmifecta

If you don’t want to brave the crowds for the Saturday stop of the Trifecta, you can brave the likely much smaller crowds to be found at the Lake Oswego 2009 Youth Skate Competiton, to be held at the Lake Oswego, Oregon Skatepark… …errrr? What? There’s a skatepark in Lake Oswego? There’s a ton of […]

Another skateboard monkey

Or the same one, I can’t speak Japanese. Actually, probably a different one than MVP’s Louie. He doesn’t use the cheater binding made out of a shoe. – Thanks to Stephanie Murdock for the tip.
