A large contingent of skateboarders representing brands from the NHS conglomerate of skateboard companies was in town last weekend, and just less than 24 hours after getting jumped by a bunch of cowards with brass knuckles, Dane Warner got the opportunity to rip with the guys during a late, late, late night vert session. His efforts earned him the curtains in this webclip from Thrasher Magazine.
Who says Facebook is worthless? One of our Facebook friends put us on to this video from 11 or 12 years ago that features two much younger versions of familiar faces in the Louisville skateboarding populous. Amazing!
are seldom welcome when skateboarding or photographing skateboarding. The two guys sitting in the middle of almost all the frames kind of ruined the sequence, but their help was used a few minutes after this was shot.
You see those sharp stones to the right of the rail? A couple of attempts after this feeble Tyrone was trying a different trick and caught his shin on one of those little guys. You could see his skin on the stone, pretty fucking gross. Those two guys mentioned earlier gave Tyrone a ride home or to the hospital, not sure which. But you know when you see white it is no good…
Most of you probably have at least heard of Cole Wilson by now. But did you know that he has a brother who also rips? Clay moved to Arizona a few months ago, but was back in town this past weekend for a visit and we were able to get out and get some skating done.
Here are Cole and Clay with frontside and backside versions of the tailslide, respectively.
The Hifi Powerslide Contest is OVER! Randy Smith and Matt Sharer will be receiving sets of HiFi wheels in the mail because of their tag-team effort on the winning video that you can view there to the right. Thanks to everyone who entered and stay tuned for more contests coming up this month.
Check out our newest homies over at Push The Wood. Also check out that first video featuring one Mr. Brooks Shuping making epic things happen.
As you know by now, Ballard is out running around with the Hometown Heroes and Zumiez Couch Tour crew and will be doing so for the next 3 months, so most of the video updates from him are gonna feature those guys and their skating, wherever it might go down. The first clip is from the Roselle, Illinois park and looks like a lot of fun.
The great Isaac McKay-Randozzi has teamed up with Orchard Skateshop and produced a t-shirt that you’re definitely going to want to buy. The question is: why not do what you want?
Just happened across an article on Travis Jensen’s site where he explains how he got such a unique angle for a photo on an old familiar spot. Pretty rad.
This post for Josh White and the KC posse. Here’s a look at the their blog.
