Tony Hawk in Jeep - Sirius commercial

Are you Sirius? (or Jeep?)

Siriusly (har har) I can’t tell if this is a commercial for Jeep or Sirius Satellite Radio. The gist of it is if you buy some kind of Jeep they throw in the Sirius service for free. It’s a mildly amusing commercial. If anyone still needs it, it’s proof that skateboarding has been assimilated into […]

Streets on Fire - Santa Cruz

Streets on Fire – Santa Cruz – 1989

Last week we had something new, so for this week lets go with something old. Streets on Fire from Santa Cruz Skateboards was a pivotal skate video to say the least. Natas Kaupas’ part pushed the boundaries of what could be done on a skateboard. I’m sure if you ask anyone what they thought of […]

Snoopy on a skateboard

Joe not-so-Cool pushes mongo and worse, rides vert.

Snoopy has been known to ride a skateboard or two, at least on shirts and toys. This may be the first time he’s ever appeared in animated form on skateboard.

Super Champion Fun Zone – Four Star – 2005

This video follows the Four Star team on a two week tour of Tokyo, Japan. Four Star has some of the best skaters, and of course the Gonz is there, which makes the video that much better. Throughout the entire video he is riding that land barge of a board. This is definitely one of […]

Watch a rollerblader eat it.

Watch a rollerblader eat it.

All those earlier injury and death posts got you bummed out? It’s never funny when someone get’s hurt. Unless they are rollerbladers or skateboarders climbing on electric trains.

Tony Hawk Downhill Jam

Nerds help the uncoordinated pretend to skate.

Seriously. I had a hard enough time with Defender, so when Defender Stargate came out it was just too overwhelming. That’s how I feel with the video games these days. Too many button combinations to remember to be able to freaking enjoy playing. That’s why simple games like Guitar Hero are the best. Tony Hawk’s […]

Grover's Video Korner #2 - Double Concussion Louie

Grover’s Video Korner #2 – Double Concussion Louie

Old Steve is having problems with his email, so I have to paraphrase his intro. He wanted to mention that this kid Louie, the Aumsville expert is the best kind of team rider to sponsor because he never asks for boards and instead rides them until they are barely a nub of wood. He speculated […]
