IT'S ON...
-Grenade is ON a boat.
-Louie "Sheckler in training" Vito is ON Dancing with the stars
(with kelly osborn, chuck liddell and sabrina the teenage witch no less)
-This cover of black betty by Nick Cave as featured in the intro of "Baker Has a Deathwish" is ON my list of most awesome song covers of all time.
WARNING- Adderall fueled gibberish ahead. Proceed with caution.
What's truly remarkable about this piece, is the manner in which the sharp percussive clanks, grinds and smacks of the skating and assorted other backround ambiance and voices in the video intermingle so seamlessly with the song, elevating the whole to a level far greater then the sum of its parts. This metaphorical yin and yang, combined with the rapid fire visual assault of incongruous and nonlinear imagery creates an unexpected and brilliant audiovisual synergy. From chaos, comes a strange cohesiveness. A masterful juxtuposition of seemingly unrelated music and imagery if ever there was one. The savage grunting and howling in conjunction with the strange ritualistic and violent outbursts of movement and self expression on behalf of the baker clan, paired with the tribal drumming and chanting of the song conjures thoughts of pre hominid man, performing crazed primitive dances and thrashing around wildly in attempts to earn the favor of savage and brutal ancient gods.
-Somebody needs to put this bear ON a skateboard.
"SNOWMASS, Colo. - A bear that wandered into an in-ground skateboard park and got stuck was rescued when officials lowered a ladder so it could climb out."
I really hope that some local gnardog skate rats rolled up on the scene first, shotgunned a few, ripped a few lines through the bowl while being chased by the bear, then after a few close calls, called it a day and informed the proper authorities. I'm waiting on the footy.

Thrashin Thursday Vol. 3
-Videos are starting to come in for the second annual Skate and Create and so far, it looks like its gonna be a doozy. First up is DVS with their submission, titled/themed "Wood". Truly dazzling.
If you have never heard of this series, I strongly recommend that you youtube "skate and create" and work your way through all of the entries from last years contest. It is one of the best things to happen to skateboarding since viva la bam went off the air.
-Crutchskate. If it were up to me, this would be called a cripflip to boardslide. Respect.
-Some next level dorkskating, courtesy of shred dudes Halldor and Eiki's collab blog
An excellent blog that also brought back some memories by digging up this gem
-One of the better installments of an excellent new series of new lakai commercials. Hilarious. Check out "Floating Camera" also.
-Skatebird. Sure why not.
-Thrasher mag was ripped by infamous rippers Urban Outfitters.
The OG thrasher one is on the top. But you already knew that right? A for effort guys. For more UO douchbaggery check out urban counterfeiters
-The year was 1978. 80's hair metal was about to rip out of the womb where it had been incubating in small clusters since the mid 70s. Dokken, Ratt, Whitesnake and probably a few more bands with ümlats and double consonants were born. Maiden had just recorded their first demo. Crüe was rising in popularity faster then the drug, swimming pool and vomit induced body count of their musical predicessors. And in Bloody olde England, people were fuckin' riding skateboards.
-On that note, I present the Skatar-
-Mullen still skates? Who knew. No offense but does anyone care?
And last but not least, check out the "Ollie Buster". Jump to around 1:34 to see how much this thing rules. And by rules, I mean sucks more shit then a metaphore for sucking shit that I can't even come up with.

And the hits keep on coming...
East Coast rail monster Lucas Magoon suffered a traumatic head injury while skating, and is currently in "serious, but stable condition" in the ICU at Reno Health Hospital in Reno, Nevada. According to an anonymous comment on Boardistan, "...he is not in a coma he is responding to his neurological tests. Also as of this morning he is off the breathing tube."
Stay up gooner
In other bummer shred news, strong rumors are flying about Eesa closing up shop. Hope everything works out dudes.

O.G. NYC Skate Legend Andy Kessler, RIP
details and more info HERE.
Legendary photog Glen E. Friedman had this to say on Andy-
"If skateboarding was a town, this guy was its mayor. Andy Kessler, one of the good ones, died yesterday apparently of a wasp sting that led to a heart attack. This was a great dude, NO ONE could say anything wrong about this dude. He was one of the oldest, if not the oldest, skater in New York City, holding it down, real since the 70's. Andy will be seriously missed by many including myself."
Interview-
Holding it down at the Autumn Bowl-
RIP. What a strange way to go.

Another one bites the dust.
OG dogtown Z-Boy, "Baby Paul" Cullen sadly fell victim to a heroin overdose a few days ago. WARNING:IF YOU ARE OR EVER WERE FAMOUS OR REMOTELY FAMOUS, YOU MIGHT PROBABLY DIE THIS YEAR.
R.I.P. Soldier.

Hippie Jump Hallelujah, etc...
New Richie Jackson footy from ipath. If you watch one skate thing today, make it be this. Trust me. The closer trick is potentially in the top 5 craziest stunts ever stunted on a skateboard.
For more next level super creative skating, check out the work of: Colin Fiske, Louie Barletta, Chris Haslem, Dave Vey, William Spencer, and Todd Falcon for starters.
RANDOM POST FILLER BONUS STUFF-
-Here we have a police report detailing Shawn White's drunken shenanigans and subsequent charge of second degree criminal tampering at some mountain in CO.
-HERE is a sneak peek of the majority of Burton's 2010 line. Items of note: New "V Rocker" camber system introduced, a private stock R. Crumb artist collab and the uninc series gets dropped for new "Easy Livin" series, designed to integrate seamlessly with the rampant gypster uprising. No word on whether dreamcatcher or feather is included. In other related news, dropped and bitter Uninc riders (DCP, JP Solberg, Romain de Marchi) start "YES" snowboards, get SIA booth with stripper.
And here we have Brad Pitt making fun of Lakai/Girl pro Mike Carroll. Seriously.
Almost as good as when Owen Wilson "showed up" Mike Carroll in Yeah Right.
And here is a shitty viral ad for the shitty new GI joe movie. With skateboarding.

Thrashin Thursdays, Vol. II
-Is it skate OR die or skate AND die?
Farrah Fawcett
MJ
Coincidence? I think not. It is the SAME EXACT SKATEBOARD. Cursed or conspiracy? Who's next?
-A weird chapter in skateboard history-
Caught Clean is a skateboarding video. It is also a juggling video. At times, it is a skateboarding and juggling video. At other times it is a juggling flaming torches while kickflipping on a bank video. Laban Pheidias directs his way to inventing a new sport combining skating and juggling. We like to call it, "skuggling".
-Interesting blog (company? art collective?) about art/high concept/gimmicky skateboards and skate related paraphenalia.
No Good skate blog
-Remember that spot in the Alcatraz level in THPS 4, right by where you have to jump onto the target thing in the water with bam? Here's the real deal.
-Ever wondered what it would be like to be a skateboard truck? find out HERE. A trucks eye view of a hot lil sesh
-The Tech Deck type toy of the future. Yeah, I want one. So what?
-Got some time to kill? Watch Mall Grab. It's great. I want to party with these dudes.
-Tony Hawk skating in the White House
This was actually shot mid way through a game of skate. Obama won. Obv.
And I leave you with a classic skate part from one of the finest skateboard productions ever out to vhs. Louie Barletta in Man Down. Possibly the greatest video part of our generation.
