Arabella is either really fond of that skateboard or this is a scene from a remake of Ghost with Ray Barbee in the Patrick Swayze roll. It’s from the folks at Front magazine who have appeared here before, and in fact seem to have a skateboard fetish in general. A random click on Melissa’s Sexy Roadtrip turned up some Santa Cruz product placement. Actually, there’s skateboards littering that whole website/magazine. Warning – External links NSFW.

Life Magazine covers skateboarding in Florida courtesy of photographer John Falls who went down to Florida to cover the Florida Bowl Rider’s Cup in Kona. And holy cow, that looks like some more artifacts from Thrasherland-style parks in those photos. It’s at this point that I’d like to remind Rick that I still know exactly where your Thrasherland slides are, you know, the ones you loaned me 5 years ago…

If she was blonde I’d insert some sort of dumb blonde joke but that would be insulting to dumb blondes. This chic is on TV, the new 90210. From US magazine.

Tony Hawk had a short interview in the How Did I get Here? column of the October issue of Fast Company. Turns out there is interesting reading material at my mother in-law’s house.

That’s no lady, that’s… oh I don’t know. Lady Tries Too Hard with a skateboard, shot by Terry Richardson for an upcoming issue of the French fashion mag Purple.

Skateboards on the cover of Good magazine. Conahan isn’t a fan of online magazines that use the fake page turning mechanism. I wonder how he feels about online magazines that have “issues.” This might actually be a print magazine, I’m not sure. In any case, I think this issue is about crappy jobs and the current employment environment. I don’t think the skateboards go any further than the cover.

This is from a February, 1980 National Geographic article on the Apache Indian Reserve. Genius. Simple, yet effective. Pure. Enlarge-o-rama.

Buddy Carr Skateboards are featured in the October issue of Italian GQ. I have to say I really like the design aesthetic over there, which Buddy art directs and Antonio Carusone executes.

Tony Hawk was on the cover of the complimentary August 2010 Continental Airlines magazine. There was also a one page interview with him about his role as a businessman. Check it out after the turn.

Thanks Gillian.

French Vogue, as spotted on Jezebel. Scantily clad models posing shots of roughing up dudes. In this case, Dewitt Cannon. I can’t see any of the accompanying text well enough to read what the point is.
