The Not-its! – Let’s skateboard

The kids band called the Not-Its! has a song called “Let’s Skateboard” on their album Kidquake. It’s hard to argue with the simplicity of that message. Normally I’d reference a parenting issue with a Naked Raygun quote, but in this case, the message is right on so I have to demur to some hippy shit. Let’s Skateboard video after the jump. Remember potential music critics, this song is meant for little kids.

– Thanks to Craig Smith for the tip. WARNING: Don’t cross him or he’ll spend countless hours photoshopping your face on to scooter and rollerblade photos. I speak from experience.

It’s actually not too bad for the genre, and your kids won’t pick up any embarrassing incorrect lingo usage. There’s a little ripper or two in there. Somebody identify the park please.

    I spoted Team Rider Pyton Moriarty. Lets link it Kiwag.

  4. Thanks for the DOSBowl link.

    btw – Don’t miss Griffin Chase in a tutu @ 57 seconds in. That kid rips.

  5. “….and do a Stinkbug….”

    1. Is “Stinkbug” a trick or an adjective? I don’t hear people saying “do a tuck-knee…”

  6. Josh Lardizabal sighting (in purple) at Greenlake.

  7. I hate kid style (and Annette Funicello) (and puppies, and even have some objections to ice cream), but the kid doing the smith at 1:26 or 2:26 avoids kid style impressively.
