Let me just nip this in the bud, don’t send me an email asking me to highlight your auction, because I won’t do it, unless it’s a collection of 23 NOS Sims boards from the 70’s and early 80’s, like this one. Wow. 9 days to go and $4k, but it hasn’t reached the minimum yet. I would have thought you could make more money by parting these decks out, but The Skateboard Pimp must be in a hurry. Nice, big photos of the entire collection. Check it out. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip. P.S.: Did you guys forget about the May eBay Watch?

Day three of Skreech Week on S&A. This is a stop somewhere off the 99 en route to Vegas on the Addikt Skateboards Full Bloom Tour. Not just a frontside grind, but frontside grind to revert. Go ahead and click to enlarge.

You don’t need a stinking $1200 video camera. GVK, you should be ashamed of yourself. What can you do with a $40 camera from a pawn shop and a $30 fisheye adapter? Tyler Martin will show you, after the jump. The video has street skating, skateparks, private bowls, golfing, the Clash and car tow-ins. What else could you ask for? This isn’t a sponsor me vid, Tyler already has one.

Looks like we’ve actually got a full week. I was going to make it a “working week” since I usually don’t post on the weekends, but Addikt Skateboards has ponied up a full seven days of Skreech on the Full Bloom Tour. These shots are from a pool in Central Valley, or maybe the central Valley? Whatevs. Check it out after the jump. UPDATE: Added some bonus detail shots of the pool.

Something odd happened this month. I was sorting through the images of the decks, putting them in categories, when I noticed something odd: I didn’t have any 90s decks. That has never happened before, and I could have gone back through and looked for 90s decks, but that would have been forcing it. I normally go with whatever catches my eye, and either there were no interesting (to me) 90s decks this month, or there were some but the pictures just sucked so I didn’t consider them. That happens a lot actually. A blurry, postage stamp sized image of the deck on a crappy background. If I can’t see the deck, then you can’t see the deck, and I’m basically describing it blind. The best ones are where they actually put a huge blow up of the deck in the auction. That is the image I grab, scaling it down for the main display, but if you click on it you see it full sized. You all knew that, right? That if you click on the deck image you see it the size it was originally displayed. So, no 90s section this month, but there’s a very long 80s section…

This Is not a GVK this is a video to win me a new camera. First trick is frontside ollies. Now go vote for it at Subpublic Bacon Knockout video contest, Daddy needs new Camera. – Love Grover.

That’s right, he lived here for a short while, and now he’s gone. He recently returned from an Addikt Skateboards road trip known as the Full Bloom Tour. This is a Jon Yunker photo shot at Frank the Tank’s. Billy Runaway will be doling out one shot a day for the rest of the week, and I hear the rest of them are all pool locations. So, I thought it was “Screech” but apparently it’s “Skreech.” I guess Addikt would know. Now let’s get into an argument about whether this was a footplant or a fastplant. UPDATE: it was a fastplant to fakie, and a make.

There’s a lengthy interview with Tom Knox on Concrete Disciples, with the usual high quality photo work of MRZ. I flaked out on interviewing Tom around the time when the Veterans Division video came out a while back. I just couldn’t think of anything interesting to ask him since I didn’t know that much about him in the first place. Sorry Tom. Don’t worry Bryce and Jim, I won’t do the same with you. – Thanks to Larry Pescatore for the tip.

Kevin Kowalski made it over the face wall of the brand new Coos Bay skatepark last Saturday. It was his first time at the park, and this was his second attempt. His new, more aerodynamic haircut must have helped get the extra speed, because he was “booking” as they say, or at least used to say when I was in the eighth grade. That’s one hell of a death box. Thanks to Colin for the photo. Dude, ditch your old iPhone for one of the new ones, I hear the camera is a lot better. With Kowalski blowing up you should be able to afford it. Check out the Shot of the Week.
