Skate and Annoy: Daily
$50 foot fetish
Opening bid on the skateboard and shoes with built in socks for a 70’s era Charlie’s Angels doll is $49. That’s for the skateboard and shoes, not the actual doll. That there is the “annoy” in Skate and Annoy, and then some.
SOTW 9-12-11: St John’s Bridge
This shot of Jeremy Tuffli taken by Garric Ray recently appeared in Skateboarder magazine: I shot the photo of Jeremy on January 2nd and he did the trick in 23 degree weather! I think I spent a couple hours with a weed wacker to clean up the spot so you can see the drop as well. I still trip out that he landed the blunt fakie in the first place. Not sure if you’ve been to the St. Johns quarter pipe under the bridge or not, but you can get really hurt skating that spot if things go wrong. You can check out the Shot of the Week, but I would stay here for enlarge-o-rama so you can see what’s happening. I need to get that incorporated into the SOTW.
Skate Ball scoreboard
This is a photo of the plexiglass cover of the Skate Ball ramp that resided at the Olympic Skateboard Arena in Crystal Lake, Illinois before it met it’s demise at the Rainbo Skatepark in Chicago, Illinois. David Dude was somehow able to rescue this at some point in time, even though he was a Dallas local that skated with the likes of Jeff Phillips, Craig Johnson, Dan Wilkes, Allen Guimond and Art & Steve Godoy. This looks awesome. Don’t forget to enlarge-o-rama.
Grindline in Laconner, Washington
This is a Grindline park in Laconner, Washington which is about a half an hour south of Bellingham. That’s Ted or possibly Fred on the backside boneless which was in fact a make, according to regular contributor John Aguilar. -Thanks! I saw pictures of a new Grindline park in Atlanta, GA (mainly in the street sections) that looked like it had some elements of a new direction for Grindline. Hard to tell from the tiny pictures though. Any of our Hotlanta readers want to scout it out?
Yo Gabba Discount
Remember when copy machine art was de rigueur on the skate zine scene? Remember those Yo Gabba Gabba Vans? The Vans outlets seem to have stopped carrying anything in my size, but thankfully the kids shoes are available at generic shoe prices. Two box scans after the jump.
Please snake me.
These pictures of the Team Pain park in Arvada, Colorado are already a couple weeks old. Hell, it might even be done by now. Snake runs please me.
Frankie, Frankie, Frankie…
There’s a Frankie Hill interview of sorts over at Whatit.be. The ESL grammar is a bit distracting at times, but if you dig/dug Frankie Hill this is the latest bit out there, unless you head to Legion Skateboards. [Board Graphic: Vaskateboards.com]
