Suicidal Tendencies

Six Degrees of Suicidal Tendencies

Updated: Instead of just tipping my hat to EPM‘s post on Suicidal Tendencies’ Institutionalized video, I decided to turn it up to 11. The vid caps above are from no less than three four different Institutionalized appearances on video: The straight video, a Beavis and Butthead appearance, a fake live appearance in a club on Miami Vice!, and the video for Institutionalized 93 – the remake. More vid caps and links to the vids after the jump.

Powell.png

From the Powell Fall 2006 catalog

Yup, new reissues from Powell. As normal they are all over the place. Sometimes they get it right (the Frankie Hill Bulldog for example, which looks awesome), but did we really need another Gelfand reissue, especially in ghetto camo? And the choice of a reissued Jay Smith snubnose is just bizarre. Good luck selling more than 50 of those. The others are just new colorways of existing reissues. The cutaway on the Cab might be new, but there have been so many reissues of that graphic, that it’s tough to keep up. And why not put ALL of the reissues under the Powell-Peralta brand? It sure would make the line more unified.

New Emergency decks

There’s some new stuff out from Emergency: the old school side of Black Label. Of particular note is the Lucero X2 graphic on an “old school” shape. Also, take note of the Blood Spots wheels that people seem to dig (after the jump).

Author! Author!

Listen up all you would be zine makers and D.I.Y.ers… Skate and Annoy is looking to add a few new voices to our “staff”. I’m going to grant “author” access to a few lucky people. What that means (besides less work for me) is that you would have the ability to make posts on the blog section of this site. (Hey.. how’d he do that picture?)

Beaverton

Vert Sucks.

No, it doesn’t. But try telling that to the kids at Beaverton Oregon’s skate park. These ramps were originally garbage picked, well donated by the X-Games. If you wanted to ride the vert ramp it usually meant you had to kick the kids off the flat bottom. These pics are from such a session, circa 2001. When the bottom rotted out of the vert ramp, local officials decided to replace it with more street obstacles made of concrete, even, I hear. Does anyone want to send in some pics of the new street developments? That would be great, mmm-kay? More after the jump.

Hailey Panorama

Ooooh, Pretty.

Me take pretty picture. Nice. So far the only picture MC has declassified from the Hailey Loop of Death mission is this striking shot. Follow the link to see it in all it’s glory. It’s worth it.

Hailey loop setup

Hailey Loop of Death?

Looks like I might have to add a loop category. As I type this, MC from Antigravity Press is probably still driving back from Hailey Idaho where he was part of Mark Scott’s entourage involved in the process of setting up and witnessing his attempt to loop the Hailey full pipe. This year he built an extension to try and get some extra speed. Word is he ended up carving into instead of hitting it straight and wasn’t able to carry the speed, basically doing the same thing that Zac McKenzie did in the much smaller Reedsport, with the exception of no broken jaw. Red is nursing an injured back but it doesn’t appear to be overly serious (?!). I don’t want to say Oregon’s less publicized version of Bob Burnquist is crazy, you’ll have to judge for yourself. I’m sure he’ll love that comparison… Top left is a cellphone pic from MC of the extension. The right side is wide angle shot of the pipe. It’s not a funnel like Reedsport, the lens just makes it look that way. I’d check SkateHailey.com for more possible coverage, as well as Antigravity Press when Mark get’s back.
