Eleven kinks

I found this on Skateboard Rumors and I thought you guys would enjoy it.

Best in the Midwest

FA Skates comes through again with a nice montage.

This is pretty old but still good stuff. Check out this clip of Pepe Martinez footy from when he was a kid all the way to right before his death.

In search of harmony

Continuing with my British Skateboarding opsession here is a trailer for The Harmony's upcoming flick Once Upon A Time. Ther are plenty of other clips on The Monster Network's video page.

Local Photog

My friend and local photographer Howard Tarpey just redesigned his site adn you guiys should all check it out.

Vapors

Continuing with teh Big Push participants East Skateboards has a trailer for their upcoming video Vapors as well as a nice park clip.

Death in the boardroom...

Well, I read the Big Push issue of Document Magazine so I've been checking out the teams involved. Death Skatebaords is working on a new video and it will be called Escape From The Boardroom. That's what I'd call my video if I could ever get myself out of the boardroom.

Landscaper

When a board company makes a clip its usually of a higher quality than yoru run of the mill kids in the midwest filming each other clip. Landscape skatebaords from the UK has just such a high quality clip on their front page.

Uncertain

Peep This pointed out this sick promo for Flatline Skateboards new video project.

Circle

I randomly went to the Circle website and after many months of waiting we have been rewarded with a new issue of their HTML zine. I love this format so much.

DIY

I've always wanted to build a ledge and the DIY Forums at Skaters For Public Skateparks is a great resource for building your own spots

More midwest

I've been posting a lot of stuff from the mid west lately. Here's another one. This one is from Milford Media who doesn't have a camera anymore so he just draws pictures now.

Skate Flicks

While wandering around on flickr I stumbled upon a nice set of skate photos from P. Bunyon. Hopefully I can come up with some footy from these guys...

Filming Crazy

Can someone please send me the new Chill Magazine with the DVD in it whenever it comes out? The DVD, Fliming Crazy, will be in issue 8 and I have no way of getting a French magazine here in the states.

12 reasons...

I've never been drunk before but here's 12 reasons to get drunk. Check out other Tales of Mere Existance and have a good old time with it. Via Drawn.

He's a writer not a filmer

He may not be a filmer but Rob Brink came through with the goods from the Goofy V. Regular contest this weekend. From Haveboard from The Hot Crew

Queens City

The guys at Charlotte Skate have 2 nice montages on their Video page.

Michigan

The Kinked Skateboard Media guys in Michigan are ripping!

Moo Moo Be You

I've always wanted to skate in Arizona because of clips like the Be You Promo. Which I found on Cowtown's website.

On the road again

15 events in 15 cities in 6 weeks. That's what the Hometown Hero Tour is about and they have footage.

Tuesday, October 25, 2005

We break for breaks

If you have some time (10-15 min) then you can learn the comprehensive history of the Amen Break from this mini doc. From Coudal...

Emerica The Beautiful

I love how Emerica shows us a new sponser-me video every month. This time it is DJ Fort. I'd like to see who else is ripping in Missori so if you know where I can see some hot Missori skate action let me know in the comments. Thanks.

Not Quite the Good Life

The Good Life is the follow up to the underground hit “Dango” from Westside Skateshop. It is basically a mockery of the term “the good life”, as it shows a life far from what most people would describe as glamorous. Linked from haveboard

Friday, October 21, 2005

Push it real good

I'm usually on top of the Blueprint news but I read on the Skateboard Rumors forum that the Big Push Blueprint edit was up on their site. So enjoy that one over the weekend and hopefull do some skating.

Crashing makes me lazy

I was in the middle of posting about FA Skates when Firefox crashed so I'll just tell you to check out all the epic clips on their site. Tons of fun to be had.

Death from down under

It's been a busy day for me so I haven't been lookign at skate stuff for you guys so here's one I had saved. Steve Gourlay is an Australian skate photographer with a website.

Thursday, October 20, 2005

Something sucks

The Freebord sucks.

Hot Links

The Hot Crew has MostlySkateboarding on their list of RSS feeds. So check them out and add us both to your RSS feed reader thingies.

No nudity, just good skating

There is a really nice clip on Skate NC right now that features some of my favorite NC rippers like Justin Brock and Mic Swett.

What more could you ask for?

Skateboarding and full frontal nudity! Division East knows how to satisfy the hungry internet skate junkies with a clip that has everything you could ever want from a short video clip.

Wednesday, October 19, 2005

Puzzled

My favorite Euro video magazine has just put out it's latest issue and you can download it from the Puzzle website for free. It's pretty much the ultimate in fre internet skate video enjoyment. I am sick today so this is it for right now.

Tuesday, October 18, 2005

The Battle of Britian.

The footage is dark but you can get the basic idea that the Blueprint team rips. War of the Roses

Ellington footy

There is a nice little Ellington commercial over at the Deluxe website. Enjoy...

Ams are better

I've been thinking that Ams are better than Pros. As evidence I offer you this clip from the Am Getting Paid Contest. Brought to us by our favorite Canadians at Street Riot

Feedback?

So I've been doing this blog for a few months now and I was hoping I could hear what all you guys think. Where are you from? What are you stoked on? What's whack? What's up with your website? You scene? Do my typos annoy you? Let em know! Thanks.

Monday, October 17, 2005

More Flicks

Brian Uyeda is the latest photographer to build a web presence. Thanks Unicron.

Friday, October 14, 2005

Feeling Nostalgic

The new Consolidated Trailer makes me yern for the days when I would go on epic skate trips. I stay pretty local now and just read The Skateboard Mag. Take a look around the consolidated site there are a few fun little videos like this one.

Thursday, October 13, 2005

Bubblin' in Dublin

I was lurking around on the Skate Perception forums and found a nice little montage from Dublin Skate called Dirty Dublin.

Hardly Working

Here's your monthly reminder to check out the new Worked eMagazine. God I love technology.

Mostly sunny

I have been pretty busy today so I'll just remind everyone that the Forecast video is going to be out real soon. Check the trailer to get hyped.

Wednesday, October 12, 2005

Winners

This is an entertaining little short film about winners. Coudal sent me tot he Wexley site and I found there was plenty of interesting stuff to look at.

The world could be a better place if everyone thought like this

I tend to think that most furnature is skatable but this guy is making furniture that is intended to be skated. Skateboarding Sucks doesn't like it but I'm running out of spots.

DC in BC

Why was this footage of the DC team in vancouver not on the DC Films website? If it wasn't for Street Riot I wouldn't have even known about it.

Is it wicked...

There's some wicked new skate footy over at Wicked Skate Footy.

Circa today

There is a new Circa site and they have a nice video ad for Jon Allie's new shoe. Link from The Mag.

PBS Skate show

It looks like PBS is throwing their hat in the ring with the Skate Park Review Show. It looks pretty boring but hopefully this is a sign of what's to come.

Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Really Satisfies

I just found out about the Snickers Day In The City and the trailer looks sick. Too bad us Americans won't ever get to see it. Very cool concept though. I expect it would end up something like Transworld's Cinematographer.

An interesting web experience

I was reading the Mike Rusczyk interview in Tha Mag yesterday and they mentioned his website which I remember having a nice clip of him and his friends skating but there was no footy to be had on today's trip to the site. There si still some fun stuff like the Barcelona photo gallery.

Black Attack

There is a new Black Label on the horizon and you can see all four trailers on this page of the Black Label website.

Monday, October 10, 2005

North Carolina is liek the skate website mecca and Eyes Like Static is the latest site to come on teh scene with 3 nice montages already. I hope they can keep it up. All things NOrth Carolina see SkateNC.

Extra Extra

Active has some sick bonus footy from Baker 3 I still haven't seen the video but I managed to find a few parts bootleged on the internet... In other Baker news Braydon Szafranski is on Pig. Skateboard Rumors always keeps me well informed.

Friday, October 07, 2005

Dragons

I've always thought the Red Dragons where kind of silly but their Park looks really fun. There's plenty of footage in this clip.

Thursday, October 06, 2005

Hippie ripping

The guys at Yellow Brand skateboards have a pretty gnarly montage that I found via Peep This

In case of emergency...

I love Scrabble so I was very excited to see that I can now take it with me where ever I go and challenge anyone anytime with this one page emergency scrabble game. Lifehacker keeps me informed with all kinds of goodies like this.

More Monkey

The new issue of Monkey Say is out and I have to say it isn't their best. Still it's worth a peek since it's free and all.

Wednesday, October 05, 2005

Hope

I haven't heard anything about 1st & Hope in a while. I wonder what's up. The trailer looks great though. In case you where wondering the Malloy brothers make surf videos.

French class

The European magazines always look so much better to me. I like seeing different spots and crazy archetecture in the background. Chill Magazine is in French so all I can do is look at the pretty pictures. That's enough for most of you out there anyway. Click on Le Skateboard for photos and there are a few clips in the Les Goodies section.

Tuesday, October 04, 2005

Things that make you go hmmmmm...

Portacope is a portable grinding surface that can be broken down into sections and easily transported by hand, backpack or vehicle. I wonder if this actually works...


I don't know what's up with this font color thing...

Romendetta

You can see Peter Romendetta's full video part from Roll Forever on Deluxe's website.

Does this seem familar?

Sometimes girlfriends and skateboarding just don't mix as illustrated in this clip that Skate Arazona pointed me towards.

Friday, September 30, 2005

More Richmond

There was a best trick contect at the Richmond YMCA park and The Forgotten City has some footage of what went down.

Thursday, September 29, 2005

Richmond

Josh Swyers from Richmond is the monthly sponser me video on Emerica's website. He's got some "interesting" tricks as well as some serious hammers. Hat tip to the hot crew.

Ohio or not

I have always liked SkateOhio but they have been slacking a little bit lately. They just updated the site with 2 new montages. Hamster has some good skating from Ohio and other places. And a park montage with a bit of footage from the DC skate plaza.

Semi Automatic

Automatic magazine is one of those free magazines you can get at the local skate shop. It appears to be more of a west coast thing so for east coasters you can check out the magazine online.

Wednesday, September 28, 2005

Off subject

I get to see a lot of different videos at my job. Some of the best videos out there are MOuntain bike videos and nobody does them like Freeride Entertainment. The trailer for their new film, Unchained, is sick! Check the guy doing a 360 flip on a bike!!! Cable cams and helecopter shots is the way to go. Skate videos suck.

Tuesday, September 27, 2005

WhatHadHappenedWas...

New North Carolina video adn this one looks real good. Whathadhappenedwas

Knock Out

The Kayo Corp is putting a video out soon called It's Official. There are trailers Here and Here.

smashed

I got hit by a car today so I am running late with everything and trying to get work done. Probably won't post anything today. I'm fine so don't worry.

Monday, September 26, 2005

Austin Collins

I think Austin Collens is a filmer or somethign cause his website (which isn't really finished) has TONS of footage on it. You can reach the video directory here. Matt Dryer's sponser me video is pretty gnarly.

Friday, September 23, 2005

Ghost Town

Magnum in Motion is a branch of the Magnum Photo Agency that puts the photographer's words with their pictures on a particular subject. Ghost Town is the latest multi media essay about the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.

Tight

Ryan Flynn is Atlanta's hottest unknown photographer and his website has soem serious gems. Check it out Light Tight.

Wednesday, September 21, 2005

Carolino Love

Santa Cruz has a new website and there is a nice selection of footage from some of their riders. The Alex Carolino footage is a definite highlight.

Ramp Champ

No suprise, Kyle Berard won Volcom's Sausage Fest Mimi ramp contest over the weekend. From the scores it looks liek he destroyed his competition.

Tuesday, September 20, 2005

Burn the city

Deluxe has posted a short film by Dan Wolfe called Keeping the Underground Lit. Just go to DLXSF.com and click on the banner. It's pretty good but I was hoping for a little bit more from Dan Wolfe. He's a bit of hero of mine...

MOre online zine goodness

That last post got me thinking abotu how Lakai has those sweet catalogs that have interviews and stuff. I think they just put out a new one (Holiday '05) which has Marc Johnson and Scott Johnston interviews and plenty of photos. The site is in Flash so I can't link you directly to the catalog. Just go to the site and click on zine down at the bottom and select Holiday '05 adn enjoy the chocolaty goodness.

Worked

The new issue (7) of Worked Magazine is out. It is an online magazine so no need to rush out to the news stand or anything like that.

What's the 411 hun?

I just watched the trailer for the new 411 13.3 and it actually looks really good. I haven't seen the new 411 yet but maybe I should check it out some time.

Friday, September 16, 2005

Skate paths!?!

What a great concept. A town in England called Stoke On Trent is building a mega skatepark but they also have skate paths. There's footy on Sidewalk's website.

Thursday, September 15, 2005

Brian Caisse

Brian Caisse is a photographer/artist type guy who works for Concrete Powder. His scrapbooks are amazing!

Canadians

Underworld skateshop is making a video check the trailer and be sure to watch until the very end.

Wednesday, September 14, 2005

Holy Crap!!!

Habitat has a full video part of Silas Baxter-Neal on their site. Dude is good! Thanks to Unicron for pointing us in that direction. There is tons of other footage on Unicron so check it out.

Stand Alone Media

These Canadian dudes rip! Check out the clip of the day as well as the videos they made. The photos are also quite good.

Tuesday, September 13, 2005

Da Projects

Remember when Birdhouse was Birdhouse Projects? Well they dropped the projects part a long time ago and they have a nice little video on their site of some park skating. Just look over in the lower righthand corner and you'll see it.

China Park

A new skatepark somewhere in China is HUGE. Check these pictures...

So the park was build by Convic and is in Shanghai, China. oh yeah and it's gnarly!

Monday, September 12, 2005

Barcelona

The dudes from Rehab Skateboarding went to Barcelona. I am soooo jeleous.

Transworld

I just subscribed to Transworld for $3.25. Not a bad deal. I signed up at magazinevalues.com and then was able to get the low subscription rate. I am sure I will be gettign a ton of spam for signing up but oh well that's why I have a spam box on my e-mail. Without video my posts kind fo suck. I am workign on fixing the problem...

Element Europe

So Quicktime is still not working so I can't vouch for the goodness of the Element Europe trailer but I'll bet it's better than the one for Elementality.

Slacking

Sorry for the lack of updates but Quicktime has been all messed up on my computer so I haven't been able to watch anything in the past few days.

Wednesday, September 07, 2005

On an unrelated note...

I just watched the trailer for Touch The Sound directed by Thomas Riedelsheimer who also directed Rivers and Tides which was awesome! Touch The Sound is a documentary about a world class drummer who is also def. Crazy!

Vans Downtown Showdown

Transworld has some footage of the Vans Downtown Showdown. I have to say I am a little bit disapointed in the obsticles. I was expecting everythign to look like real street. Maybe they should have called Berra.

Edit: Vans has some more footage of the event

Tuesday, September 06, 2005

Action Sports selling Panasonic

This commercial and website selling Panisonic cameras is kind fo interesting.

BIg Push

Document magazine created "The Big Push" as a King Of The Road type thing but their DVD is coming free with the next issue. You can see the trailer on Document's website. Hopefully the US magazines will have the DVD as well.

Another videos from Washington DC

Those guys just pump the videos out. Check out the promoo for Time Will Tell over at Short Circuit

Friday, September 02, 2005

English clips

World record ollier Danny Wainwright's skate shop 50-50 has a ton of nice clips on their website. I wonder if they have a shop video...
