Memorial Day Monday

Many Americans and their love ones have made sacrifices to protect our interests and freedom. Please take some time to think about that and enjoy the day. Nick Gibson with a back tail at Herman's Hole.

Sunday Soul : Roy Orbison

Holiday Weekend

Mike Gustafson with a switch front blunt in Portland ME. Have a great weekend.

Back in the Day : Stevie Williams

This was my favorite video part in my favorite video back when I was a young dude. Stevie represented the East Coast ledge skaters to the fullest and so many kids from the East were mad proud of his skating. The Reason is one of my all time favorite pieces of art. I think it is safe to call it that. Enjoy.

Cuba Skate Trip

BS flip in Havana

I just got back from an amazing skate trip to Cuba. You may know that Cuba is a Communist island nation that has weather like Florida, very hot and humid. We went there to hook up skaters in Cuba because people are poor, life is hard and there aren't any skate shops. Going there made me feel lucky to have some of the things we take for granted, starting with clean water and plenty to eat. The people were great hosts and it is a beautiful place. Click on the pics to see a gallery. Thanks to everyone who made the trip great.

Gnarkansaw Travels

Gnarkansaw's Nick Gibson headed north to Herman MO to skate a legendary spot tucked back in the woods. I always love seeing spots like this and this one is sick. Cool spot, cool vibe. You can check out Herman's Hole at www.hermannshole.blogspot.com and the local scene at www.kingshighwayskateboarding.blogspot.com Thanks to the owner JP for hosting. Good times were had by all. 

Getting it done.

Rudy's Recent Footy

Back In the Day: Pat Brennen

This one's for all the Pasadena Homies growing up skating in the early 90's. Pat was a local legend. I remember watching his part in the Powell Parelta Video, Celebrity Tropical Fish (VHS tape,) and going to all the spots he skated and trying to do the same lines he did at those spots. Sadly he passed away prematurely in a car crash. miss you man! check it.

Sunday Soul

This one is a crowd-pleaser at any soul club. Crumbs from the Table by The Young Disciples and Co. will get your feet sliding and suit sweating. Put your Fred Perry on, kick up your Clark's and enjoy! 

Randy Chew's Food Reviews

El Tepeyac East L.A. - The Hollenbeck Burrito! This is the ish!

My friend Drew and I were on a hunt for a new burrito spot that I was told about but the directions were so vague that we ended up here.  Maybe you've watched Man vs Food and know that this place is famous for having the Manuel's special.(look it up). This thing is like the size of a newborn baby.  If you can finish this then it's free or you win a trip to the bathroom or something.  Anyways, the Hollenbeck is a half the size version of the Manuel's Special. My friend and I split it and it was perfect as we were both stuffed. Defintely a stop on the burrito tour.  This gets 4.5 burritos out of five because I was too full.  Go there and who knows maybe Manuel might come through with a shot of tequila.  Its not unheard of.

Back in the Day: Billy Valdes

Ah, seems like it was yesterday. Billy had the energy of fifty or sixty men and it was always a party when you rolled with him. His back tailslides and back heelflips were among the most stylish. Here's his part from L.A. County. Have a great week.

Sunday Soul

A classic by the Stones and another by the Intruders. Happy Mothers' Day to all. Special thanks to Squid for hosting a fine birthday bash in Griffith Park. Have a great day.

Cyril Bayon

Cyril at the Ficelle Picarde 2011 which is kinda of a bum rush street contest in northern France. We had a cool video from last year's event and will most likely post one from this year's. Cyril with a back tailslide. Have a great weekend.

Nick's not scared

Nick will step to almost any obstacle. 5050 over the channel somewhere near Kansas City. Have a great one.

James Juarez's Ad in Lowcard #38

Here's James Juarez tailsliding a roof in Lowcard #38. Not the cover pic but the ad in color. For some of us it is like a weight has been lifted now that Osama bin Laden is gone. Although his killing doesn't bring back those lost, it's fortunate to be able to have some closure and justice. Enjoy your health and freedom and have an excellent week.

Sunday Soul - Stevie Wonder

New month is upon us and the old one is done. Have a great day and a great month.
