Portlandia and Old Skater
Carrie Brownstein after filming another episode of Portlandia with a skateboarding segment. They shot at Burnside last season. I haven’t posted that yet. Local skater Russ from Gorey Details suited up as an “old skater” for this episode.
Bite me
An in store promo item for the Bart Simpsons Butterfinger campaign. Sure, it’s old, but Bart Simpson never goes out of style. It’s too bad that show went off the air… Wait? It’s still on? It’s too bad that show is still on the air. I actually haven’t watched it lately. It went through a phase when they clearly should have called it quits, and then it got good again, but I couldn’t get into it again. I’m more of a Bob’s Burgers guy these days. Get some.
Excel – Unenslaved
I’m not fan of Excel (or Powerpoint for that matter.. Cue rim shot.) but at the very least, in 1995 they were well ahead of the curve paying respect to Dogtown. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip
Won’t someone please think of the CHILDREN!
I would like to apologize to the posts that appear above and below this one.
James Jarvis for MTV
Illustrator and vinyl toy designer James Jarvis made this station ID for MTV with Richard Kenworthy. It’s a cool animation and it’s not his fault that the network is flaming bag of dog poo. That would be a good station ID for MTV actually. [Source: Hypebeast]
Honda Zoomer X
The Honda Zoomer-X is out there somewhere in Thailand. It’s got a space under the seat for a box that you can remove to carry longer items, like the suggested skateboard in this promo shot. [ Source: Motomalaya ] – Thanks to Boy for the tip.
Photo News
The cover of Photo News Canada, which should be subtitled “Your source for Canadian photoshopped photography.” Another Seismic sighting. – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.
Earache my eye
Tom Penny board on Flip with Cheech & Chong, and the real Cheech & Chong, via Facebook. CSS has a brief interview with the duo regarding their appearance.
Rolling mechanic
A little bit of street luge and a little bit of skateboarding, all in one Volvo commercial. [ Source: Seismic Facebook feed.] – Thanks to Matthijs for the tip.
