KY Wood

A privately funded effort to reply the monster vert ramp at the Louisville, Kentucky Extreme Park. Remember, when the park was built the Mayor had high hopes of luring the X Games to town. I don’t think that ever played out, did it? No official word on how to donate, but if you’re interested, I have an email address to contact.

Pool build time lapse

A bit of stretch featuring this BMX only facility on Skate and Annoy once, let alone twice, but I’m a sucker for time lapse construction movies, and this spot is cool. Check it out after the jump, some before and during footage, and lots of footage of guys on bike – not skating but still killing it. – Thanks to MC.

Extremities

Eli Stonberg strapped a camera onto Aryeh Kraus, and then he strapped five more on. One on each arm, each leg, his head and the underside of he skateboard. Then he trained another on him while he skated, and synched all the videos together. The result is pretty interesting once you get past a little initial motion sickness. It’s supposed to be a commercial for Coca Cola’s energy drink Burn, but there’s no mention of it, maybe they just paid for it. Check it out after the jump. – Thanks to Ryan Mann for the tip.

Tony MoHawk

Grover used to love trying to fluster little kids at skateparks by asking them if they knew who Tony Mohawk was, or just shouting it out at random moments like an exclamation point. My friend Boneman lives in Colorado now, but when he saw this Tony Mohawk dog toy he immediately thought of me and yes you, the readers of Skate and Annoy.

Duane still needs help

Check out this 1981 Tod Swank photo of Duane Peters at Del Mar with Glen E Friedman in the foreground shooting the same move that would end up in Thrasher.(Actually, i scanned the81 and early 80 issues, couldn’t find it.) 10 prints of this photo are up for grabs on eBay, complete with autographs by al three key players. Proceeds go to help Duane recover from massive hospital bills due to (not having insurance) and almost losing his leg. If only he were Canadian… Get yours before they sell out or Tuesday, June 14, 2011, whichever comes first.

Insult to injury

So maybe it wasn’t feasible to make the giant halfpipe shaped roof of the Museum of Surf actually skateable. There’s still the bowl, right? Surely that pool-like structure in the roof is a skateable tribute to the connection between the roots of skateboarding and surfing? Markus Suchanek recently visited it and found otherwise. Check out his photos after the jump. How is that this museum has no web site?
