Pool build time lapse

A bit of stretch featuring this BMX only facility on Skate and Annoy once, let alone twice, but I’m a sucker for time lapse construction movies, and this spot is cool. Check it out after the jump, some before and during footage, and lots of footage of guys on bike – not skating but still killing it.

– Thanks to MC.

Tony MoHawk

Grover used to love trying to fluster little kids at skateparks by asking them if they knew who Tony Mohawk was, or just shouting it out at random moments like an exclamation point. My friend Boneman lives in Colorado now, but when he saw this Tony Mohawk dog toy he immediately thought of me and yes you, the readers of Skate and Annoy.

Glennz designz

He’s Glenn Jones is a graphic designer and illustrator from Auckland, New Zealand who operates under the name GLENNZ, which is derived from ‘GLENN’ and ‘NZ’ concatenated. You can visit his site and vote on which of his designs you’d like to see made into a t-shirt. Currently there are four skateboard illustrations in the mix. I don’t know where they disappear to after voting ends, so I’ve archived them after the jump.

– Thanks to Matthijs for the tip

Skateboarding

In which I blather on about skateboarding, popular culture and other stuff, make references to old punk rock songs, inside jokes and pretend to be self deprecating. Mention DIY and other buzzwords, wistful words, appeal to the local fan base, fly the flag and remenisce about back in the day. Enjoy the weekend!

– Thanks to everyone for the tip.

White Girl Wasted

White Girl Wasted by ElleMC, shot on location at Burnside by Dave Hupp. Hip Hop dressed as punk rock. Remember when you used to be able to tell what a band would sound like just by looking at them? I’m not complaining. Shut up old man! Video after the jump.

Jerry, no Tom

This is from a Tom and Jerry themed Subway kids meal toy from 1994. the wheels underneath are one solid bar that is strangely arced in the center, so he likes to fall over if he’s on an uneven surface, which goes nicely with his bicycle style helmet. There were three other figures, but I’ve only got this one.

Please don’t skate in the Pool

The Pool” is a temporary installation in a public swimming pool in London. Nike 6.0, the action sports (excluding skateboarding) division set this up for BMX action. If you’re a UK reader of this site who doesn’t have a bike, they’ll even loan you one. This idea is… interesting. I wonder if they’d let someone skate it? I know, skateboarders are always glomming on to the blood sweat and tears of the the action sports industry. When are we going to get it together and make something for ourselves? The Dagenham Swimming Pool sessions end June 12th. That’s one massive temporary structure.

Skateboard (dog) Harassment

Dreamdogs UK “reports” that a skateboarding street stunt dog was fined about $160 for not being on a leash. Where was the cop during the Tyson craze?

Errr… Friday, uhm… T&A?

Maybe if you squint, but don’t look to close, because I think this might be a 12 year old boy. Check out the way the bikini bottom droops in crotch. Anorexia is such a turn on. Get more of less, on Velvet Cigarette, a web site dedicated to the model who is Rachel Lynch. She loves that skateboard though, there are several photo sessions with it. Rachel, when you get around to reading this, I already know that I’m more or less fat.

– Thanks to Boy Ipoh for the tip.

Aggressive non-violence

If you’re a fan of this site then it should come as no surprise that after the jump you’ll see way too many pictures of these Toyboarders that are essentially the skateboarding version of plastic army men.
