Skate and Annoy: Daily
Bankrobber strikes again!
The skateboarding bandit has struck again. I’m going to declare it now. He’s a modern day folk hero. Clyde (his board is Bonnie). Just like Jessie James, I hear he’s cheating on Sandra Bullock. No new photo though, so we’re still at sqaure one as far as identifying his skateboard company of choice. The LA Times credits this phototo the FBI, but shouldn’t it really go t the bank or the company that manufactures the security camera. And seriously, it’s 2010. Is this the highest resolution security camera technology we have?

Tarp Surfing
No matter what your personal feelings towards taking this seriously, you have to admit it’s a genius dork session. I especially like the stand up paddler. They did so well on some of these simulations, but totally blew it with the choice of soundtrack. Flame on.

She’s back!
The bored gal from Dee Dee’s Vintage is back with another skate shirt, this one from the 80’s. She’s a concrete killer, and the board says “Dare Me.”
Reader D.I.Y.
Drama still unfolding. Surrounding neighbors and businesses are 100% with the exception of one not-to-bright business owner whose main objection is that “those kids have no right to be there.” The area is desolate, any kid with a broom is only making an improvement.
Paul Fujita on Callin’ today
Catch long time Portland artist, activist, skater and the future of Cal Skates, Paul Fujita will be the guest on Callin’ on Colin today. Catch it live on the Interwebs at 2pm Pacific, or download the audio later on in the day. Skate and Annoy is proud to sponsor Callin’ on Colin, regardless of how poorly it is named, and whether or not Colin knows that we are a sponsor yet. That’s an old photo of Paul at Aumsville, circa 2004.
A crowded visual field
New collection that includes 50 previously subscriber-only comics available as a full-color book and PDF download or a black-and-white book with color cover at the Antigravity Press book store.
Tommy K Memorial Jam in Virginia
From the organizers:
The past two years people of Williamsburg have started a tradition of Tommy Karafa Skate Day. This is a yearly skate contest to honor our friend and neighbor Tommy Karafa who passed in a tragic car accident two years ago in Williamsburg, VA. This contest is to serve as a remembrance of him, as all profits go toward the Tommy Karafa scholarship fund to help underprivileged youths attend college. His father runs the fund and helps students with paying for the ever rising costs of furthering their education. Last year we had a great turnout of over 150 in attendance, with 30 participants in the contest. This year we hope to double that number by teaming up with Anti-Gravity Skateshop in Newport News, VA to bring the premier contest to the Peninsula.
1st prize is a $1000! I believe that’s more than the entire purse for this year’s Oregon Trifecta!

Monster Bandages
The novelty bandage business has really taken off. The Monsterville name is synonymous with first aid, so I’m sure these were worth the extra cost. One side of the sanitary wrapper is clear, so I didn’t have to open half of them to find one with a skateboard on it.
