The Rumble In Barona- September 10th, 2011

This year we've moved the ramp to The Barona Drag Strip

Barona Drag Strip- 1750 Wildcat Canyon Rd., Lakeside, CA. 92040

Run-What-You-Brung drag races.
Vert Jam with all the greats from the past and present: Darren Navarrette, Christian Hosoi, Jeff Grosso, Lance Mountain, Max Schaaf, Steve Caballero, Jake Brown, Danny Way, Sam Hitz, Peter Hewitt and the list goes on.

Music to skate to by Zeke, Antiseen, Hellbound Glory and more.
Tons of custom cars and bikes.
Food, girls, charity raffle, camping and chaos.

The Rumble In Raleigh- October 15th, 2011

The Longbranch- 600 Creekside Dr., Raleigh, NC. 27609

Minus the drag racing, Raleigh is The Rumble on the east coast! Helmet and

a special guest will headline the music, along with a vert ramp, cars and bikes, food,

southern girls, charity raffle and tons more.

The reason for the Rumble is to have fun and do something for skateboarding that

doesn't have a point system. Go to rumblefests.com for more info and to buy

tickets in advance (we got to pay for this somehow).

PLEASE HELP SPREAD THE WORD!

Midwest slappies

2010-11-11T07:05:00.000-08:00

My friend Calbee from Chicago circa 1989-90. The best frontside slappies ever. I've been skating with Calbee since I was a kid. It's pretty likely he was there when I learned Slappies. (he had them first)

Alyasha NYC circa 1990 by Jon McGrath

2010-09-13T20:31:00.000-07:00

i wasnt a punk rocker i was a skater

2010-09-12T11:12:00.000-07:00

i was totally into new wave until about 1984 when i discovered rap with Run Dmc, the girl i was going steady with loved it and so on...i moved from normal heights san diego to escondido california left all my friends and family and skate spots. 1986-87 you could spot a skater from a mile away by the way he walked and everybody skated everything together, i met this dude george the first week i moved to escondido i saw him skating his driveway the day we pulled in and i slowly crept to his neighborhood everyday and shredded around the corner hoping he would hear me and want to skate. it worked, we became great friends and skate partners. i was just starting junior high school and he was a sophmore in high school, he had fucking great taste in music and within a month of becoming friends we dubbed each others tape collections. in one week i discovered: NWA, Metallica, Slayer, Suicidal Tendancies, and Boogie Down Productions... my poor mother had no idea what to hate first.

"Join the Army" came out and we ate that shit up. BOOMBOX everywhere blasting some rude shit...this local chollo taught me

how to steal TESTOR cans and that same day he took my crew to this loading dock that had an abandoned hard top MG...we

went nuts for a week straight, tagging launching and grinding this car until the chollo came back with his homeboys "all wet foo"

they got super high and violent and lit that shit on fire, everything our launch ramp the car...possessed to skate was roaring out

of the boom box, 6 little curb crushers two high school "skater" dorks , 4 chollos high on Sherm and a burning MG, out of fucking

control but safe...the local authorities arrived and we turned ghost over some walls surround the shopping center.

"join the army"

i rented this from video library often

2010-09-10T13:41:00.000-07:00

everyone should carry a can TESTOR paint with them when skating...shred a bit tag something and continue shredding.
