Skatopia founder Brewce Martin suffered a head trauma when a tire exploded at a tire shop near Skatopia. Updates as we get them after the jump.

Day four of Skreech Week on S&A. brings us to the Las Vegas stop of Addikt Skateboards Full Bloom Tour. Enalarge, after the jump.

Now that MC’s bowl is in the finishing stretch, here’s something else to follow. Josef Heffner has demoed his DIY backyard bowl complex and in favor of a new expanded layout. Nearby, Danimal is working on building his own board press, to be constructed with veneer he plans to buy here. If you’ve got something you’re working on, we’d love to hear from you too.

A couple more pages from the 1987 Skateboard Action book, thanks again to Hood River’s photog in residence, Carl Warren. Click to enlarge. You might notice that the photo has been retouched heavily, airbrushed to make it look a little like a painting. This is pre photoshop kids. I wonder why they went through the trouble.

The Brain Injury Association of America wants you to wear a helmet while skateboarding. Who knew there was such an association? Do you have to have a brain injury to join, or do they give you one when sign up? Maybe someone with brain damage chose the name, because it sounds like an organization in favor of brain injuries. It’s obvious that the art director who chose this skateboarding butt shot had a brain injury. “Mom, Dad, I’m going to be on a poster!” – Thanks to Danimal for the photo.

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.

Courtesy of Hood River’s own Carl Warren. His brother recently gave him this 1987 book written by Steve Hawk (Yes, he is.) with the stickers intact. Check out the wrap around rails on that Staab. More pages after the jump.

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.
