Skate and Annoy: Daily
Breakboard
YouTube says it’s a “Cool New Sport” and I think it’s legit. I mean “legit” as in it’s not supposed to be a joke. New Cool…! New Sport! New Challenge! New Image! The perfect blend of Street Dance and Skateboarding.Lifting the “BreakBoard “develop muscles and strengh.The patented”BreakBoard is an innovative 2N1 skateboard product designed for a new generation of talented athletes with a safe and “FunFitness”way to express their potential creative genius. This board literally mates old exercise-craze “technology” with a skateboard. Along with pulleys on doorknobs, and later on Thigh-Masters, another exercise device pawned off on the fat and lazy American public was a simple turntable device that allowed you to do the twist in place without… I don’t know, excess friction in the balls of your feet. Jessie L. Drummer decided to put one on a skateboard to “fight obesity and stress” and engage in some excellent break dancing. – Thanks to Bobcat for the tip.
GVK #63: Pete Schweddy – Burnside 2011
I have renewed my Burnside skatepark membership and frequent it often. Well on this particular day it was Pete Schweddy A.K.A Alec Baldwin. Even tho the action was low it was a heated tech session until Boo-ya showed up and the big bowl started to getting some action. Enjoy the music of Eduard Khil a Russian a crooner. The Name of the song is Trololo. Which Kinda means (Watching the Cowboys come home). Which in 1976 was illegal to sing in Russia. “Pete Schweddy” Burnside 2011
SOTW 1-23-11: Jamie Jacobson
Holy cow! I know, right, it’s amazing that I’ve actually updated the Shot of the Week two weeks in a row… Yuck yuck yuck. What’s amazing is that this kid (Young adult?, Seasoned veteran?) Jamie Jacobson apparently has this move down pat and isn’t bothered by hitting it without shoes. This capsule face carve is as Dave Duncan would say (over and over) “no joke.” Thanks to Dabe Alan again for the photo. I had to include the oversized enlargement for this one. I need to kick up the Shot of the Week anyway, it’s still set at a 2003 bandwidth.
Merde’s Shit Sandwich
Is this Sponsor Luv? I don’t know, but it is a video from Merde titled Shit Sandwich.
Blackriver Bowl, Bavaria
You may remember Blackriver as associated with expensive fingerboard trucks, but they skate life sized terrain as well in Bavaria. (Now it make sense that $75 fingerboard trucks come from the land of BMW.) Photo sets on Flickr, or catch some vid after the jump. – Thanks to Martin Ehrenberger for the tip.
Lemmy, the Movie
Playing in Portland right now through the 21st, and elsewhere concurrently and ongoing. Checkout the trailers after the jump or look up screenings in your town on the official site. Looks great, lot’s of interviews with people I like, plus, it’s Lemmy, you know? Even NPR likes him. If you’re hungry for more, The Onion has an interview with the filmmakers.
