another day at the office. kotr edition

After seeing a few skaters walk through the store grabbing handfuls of bananas, I notice an odd looking Eric koston. After chatting up for a little, this is the first stop for Nike for this years King of the Road. He has to wear this gross outfit for 24 hours.

part 3 of 4

Jason Dill should write a book. I say that about a lot of people, but with Dill i actually mean it. Another thing about if Dill wrote a book, I would read it.

I'm not going to over load by posting the other parts of this series. If you cared about it you:
one, have already seen it,
two, would find it yourself.


sorry about the lack of post this week. No interweb for a week.....bummer.

new dylan shoes

Just when you all thought i was done posting about Dylan Rieder, you were wrong to say the least. for the half dozen, or so, who follow my blog may have noticed I am a huge fan of everything dylan does (including girlfriend) He continues to kill it in skateboarding and pushing the boundaries of what is expected in a skateboard shoe. About 5 years ago I started skateboarding in slips-ons primarily so liking dylans gravis shoes was an easy transition.

Gravis is coming out with a rather extensive line of Dylan signature shoes. They, like his others, are awesome. They say you can skate in these... I wouldn't, but then again I don't really skate anymore anyway.

Dylan vs. Gravis

If you skateboard this will melt your face. This video part is so good. Dylan is the best skater right now... well at least I think so. Ever since his transworld part a few years back, this kids has been only getting better.

Salt Lakeai City

Yesterday was the Zumiez Couch Tour...which is the big event by one of, if not the, gayest shops in skateboarding. The Salt Lake City stop featured the Lakai Team. Mike Carroll has been my favourite skater since day one so i obviously had to go. I felt (and probably acted) like i was 15 again.



Classic Mike Carroll Back Smith


Vincent Alvarez goes soo fast it's insane. He would roll in on the other quarter pipe switch and do this half cab nosegrind so good.


Another classic Carroll


This is the only trick Biebel landed... no biggie


1o years in the making.

ps. Mike Mo didn't skate the demo and kids were getting so bummed. You would see dudes like Guy Mariano skateing around and all you would hear is "where is Mike Mo?".....dumb kids.

"Doing it Baja"

Part one of eight went live this morning. It's awesome, obviously.

little video for milo

My friend Colt asked if I would produce a video he wanted to do for Milo sport reviewing habitats new shoes. In my typical fashion, I used my camera from 8 years ago. It gave it the look we were going for. My other friend Josh created the song just for the video.

this is my 500th post by the way.

brian anderson epicly laterd

i have been waiting for this episode for a while now. I'm sure other people have been waiting too. Brian Anderson is on of my favourite skaters. Always smooth, personality dope, art awesome, and tattoos badass.

Also stoked to see that there is going to be Five parts.


Also, not sure if anyone has seen this yet. Colt Bowden sketchbook stories. Tales of drawing retarted people in high school, tours with Toy Machine, and being forced to draw bones. It's good stuff, I promise.

skateboarding and suntans

For a brief moment this last weekend the weather was super nice. Went skateboarding at the ramp with colt. Even my wife had a good time...


This morning it's all gloomy and will most likely rain...or snow... :(

Bram 2005

Another one of those clips from the past that is anything but embarrassing. Bram is dope.

ps. I'm pretty sure this was filmed januaryish 2005, maybe even february. Whenever it was, it's old.

wreck VII

I don't need to say anything, all the info is in the promo.

Sam Klassen

I have started to go through all my old tapes. There are a lot of embarrassing things and some not so embarrassing things. This clip is one of the not so embarrassing ones.

Sam from Nylon Baby on Vimeo.

In the summer of 2005, Sam and I would skateboard nearly everyday together. At least once a week we would find ourselves warming up at the Art Gallery. Tyler still hates on my favourite spot not being a "real spot". At any rate, this clip never made it in any of the buddy cam videos. I'm not sure how that happened, i thought we included every clip we got....
More old clips coming... stoked?

Gabrielle gave a free Wii Bowling lesson

Pat "enjoying" some art.
It's about time this blog got a little more charleswood.

Bram

Bram has been a friend of mine for some time. He recently had an art show at green apple shop in Winnipeg. Wish I had been there, I've always been a fan.

I posted a photo a while back of my bro mike. Today i went to a skateboard site today (getting more and more rare) and noticed they posted an interview with him. Mike Vince, friend, former room mate, mellow bro, dope skateboarder.
