Car as skateboard – Part… (I lost count)

My money is on fake because the acceleration up the “vert” wall seems too fast, it’s on MySpace, and the clip is so short. You’d think if you actually caught this on video you’d keep the record button pressed, maybe talk to the driver… The imperfect landing was a nice touch though. Prove me wrong. […]

Name your trick appropriately

It’s not really a slide if your wheels are turning. This is called the “Coco slide” but since it’s more akin to typical stunt driving found on late 70’s TV cop shows, I’d say this should be renamed the Starsky & Hutch. Who is Coco? The guy in the video is named Jim. – Thanks […]

“Hope. Hope.” just like Dick Ritchie says

No that’s not a still from the first Bones brigade video, it’s 20 years later and Lance is hitting that spot for Elwood clothing’s 1st and Hope video, which came out some time last year I believe. Has anyone seen this? It looked like a good concept for a video, instead of the usual scattergun […]

GVK #27: Skateboarding Sucks

Proof that skateboarding sucks.

Strongest of the Strange – Pontus Alv – 2005

Strongest of the Strange from Pontus Alv, circa 2005. The video was filmed from 2002 to 2005, and is the handy work of Pontus Alv. This is one of my all-time favorite skate videos. It seems like they really put a lot of energy and time into the skating/filming/editing. Its not only long, but its […]

Performance Enhancers

Unlike some people, Max Schaaf is a professional athlete who isn’t afraid to admit to using certain performance enhancers, namely magnets. I’m calling for a full Congressional inquiry. There’s nothing more important going on, right? [Source: DLXSF via Silverfish]

Teach your kids how to skate

This really short kid goes to private school, has a girl-sh sounding name (Ailene, pronounced Ilene.) practices freestyle and pushes mongo. That’s enough to make him a punching bag at many schools, or at least quarantined for some sort of sociology experiment, but Ailene seems to be doing OK. I had this video as an […]

Scared straight (or regular?)

I’ve been watching Fuel TV more and more lately. I have the DVR set up to pick up “skateboard” in the title and descriptions, that way I don’t have to sift through all the extraneous wakeboarding, motocross, BMX and snowboard programing. I’ve blown it off for a couple years because I figured it would all […]

The Knife – Heartbeats

Here’s a still from the music video for the 2003 track Heartbeats from the Swedish band The Knife. It’s got some vintage skateboarding footage, about 15 seconds or so looped repeatedly. Those kids in the striped shirts look kind of cool going downhill together. I thought they might be up to some editing trickery at […]
