Ripping Off Skate Artists

First this is not my post i copied this from a website i tried to write it in my own but this post sounds better.

We were tipped off to this article that points to a the Reload bag company. It seems these bozos are producing bags that feature the artwork of Jim Phillips, VCJ, Alien Workshop and Neil Blender and giving them NO part of the almost $400 price tag. What?
From Neil: “That bag is a shocker. They’re using all kinds of graphics from companies.Vision? T.Hawk? Weird,wonder what can be done? Wonder if they even sold any bags, terrible looking items.”
So if you run across these and get tempted to spend a grip of cash (we hope you would notice how shitty they are)…don’t. Support the skate companies who support the artists, not biters.

Blind Brotherhood Deck for Scott Kane

Blind has released its 3rd Blind Brotherhood deck! This one being for Scott Kane!

As a reminder because there is always a bit of confusion…

The Blind Brotherhood Program is something exclusive to Blind and it’s our way of supporting fellow skateboarders. Basically we’ll choose one fellow industry skateboarder each season and produce a deck in his name on behalf of the Blind Brotherhood program and when the deck is purchased a portion of the proceeds will go to help benefit that rider.

Our first Blind Brotherhood deck went to Bryan Farabegoli, who was diagnosed with a tumor, the 2nd to Kenny Hughes and our 3rd is going to Scott!

Below is the info and a link to download the deck artwork for media reviews in web and print as well as a video link at the bottom!

WEIRD NEWS>?

Hawk, Margera Get The Stardoll Treatment, Shecks Pulled

A month or so ago we posted a link to Stardoll.com and highlighted the fact that Ryan Sheckler was available to ‘virtually’ dress up.
Well, Mr. Sheckler (aka ‘Double Pits To Chesty’) has been removed from the site and, according to this article, Tony Hawk and Bam Margera have been added. It’s interesting to note that Hawk is listed in the ‘Athlete’ category while Bam can be found in ‘Celebs’. Nothing else needs to be said.
Will these two raise hell like Sheckler and Co. did over their Stardoll inclusion? Will angry emails be sent? Reputations threatened? We doubt it.

The Heavies Get Set to Dew It in Boston

Many top-level professionals will be heading out to Bean Town this week for the first ever “skate-only” stop on the Dew Tour. This second stop of the Dew Tour’s 2009 season, is also designated as the International Skateboarding Federation (ISF) Skateboarding World Championships. will be held in Boston, July 24-25 at the TD Garden. In the mix to shake up the regular lineup of Dew Tour street competitors are heavies Chris Cole, Eric Koston, Dennis Busenitz, Nick Dompierre, Jake Duncombe, Tommy Sandoval Billy Marks, and Peter Ramondetta. It looks like it will be a good, hard fought battle.
Not to be missed, skateboarding insider and journalist Rob Brink recently caught up with Chris Cole for his thoughts on competitive skating at this level and being the last of a core generation of skaters. A very worthy and solid read.
ALSO-

The Expedition team just put up a lengthy online video of their travels in China. Have a look at 12 minutes of B roll footage and get ready for the prime cuts to drop in their upcoming video sometime in the next several months.

2009 Maloof Money Cup Pictures.

Here is a closeup of the Zoo York Bricks and on of the hardest obstacles on the course which is the Valencia ledge.

Overview of the Mini Mega Ramp to the left and the Vert ramp on the right.

P Rod Nails a Kickflip Frontside Nose Slide on the Uci Rail.

Chaz Ortiz does a smooth frontside smith grind combo on the handicapped rail.

The 2009 Maloof Money Cup course was has some very interesting elements in it and it also ushered in another first in skateboarding which is the first competition on Danny Way's Mini Megaramp. The Mini Mega has a rollin which is about 30 feet tall and that throws you into a rail which ultimatly leads you in into the vert ramp. A lot of the runs on the vert ramp started off with the Mini Mega Ramp roll in. In no particular order here are some of the obstacles that are on the street course this year. All the items named below are replicated after famous skate spots such as the Uci rail and ledges, the Valanica ledge from Barcelona, the 3 up 3 down spot and the Pier 7 manual pad both from San Francisco, The Rincon Rail which was the first obstacle that was built in the course and it is also the Tech Dech sponsored rail and finally in the corner you have the Zoo York Brick Banks which are taken from the Brooklyn Banks in New York.

Weirdo Skateboards

Over the years there’s been many, many bizarre names tossed around in the process of branding and establishing skateboard companies. Dogsled, Skillz, Knee Jerk, Sweet Leaf, Yellow and Toast are just a few of those names that come to mind. Hell, just open up a dictionary to a random page and land on a random word and you’ve got the moniker for your skateboard brand. Of course, this strategy has worked for some, and not so well for others.

Well, for reasons best known to him, Tom Augusta, has launched his own unique brand of skateboards under the name Weirdo. And yes, the name he’s chosen for his small start up brand is a bit wild, but it’s fitting. At first thought, I connected the name to the fact that he’s a true free spirited sort of individual. After all, he used to rock a checkered board helmet at the skate park back in the days when new wave and punk rock filled the airwaves for the first time. And today he still rocks that Primus haircut. Just head over to San Jose’s Lake Cunningham skate park and look for the older guy ripping around those deep bowl sections with the bright fluorescent green helmet on and you’ve found him.

In all honesty and reality, Tom has always been that guy that did things his way and didn’t follow convention, trends or what was cool at the time. He’s always done it his way with his weird approach to things. And as such, a majority of skateboarders are different from the status quo by default.

Weirdo decks are manufactured by PS Stix so you know the quality of construction holds up to expectations of durability and strength. The Weirdo deck measured at 31.75” X 8.25” and is bright fluorescent orange. To view and purchase other colorways and widths of decks ranging from 7.5” to 8.5” have a look around at the Weirdo Skateboards site. In addition to its small range of goods, there are other functional skate products and accessories offered too. Good to go. http://www.weirdoskateboards.com/

Powell’s FUN! Video

After a nine year hiatus, Powell’s newly released skate video FUN! is one that celebrates the creative gnariless of its youthful roster of skaters and rises to the occasion on many levels. Upon watching the video footage in its entirety of 36 minutes (not including the bonus section) I was blown away by how hard hitting the whole video was. In this day and age, after you watch a skate video a few times there’s bound to be a part you’ll skip or get sick of viewing. But with Powell’s video effort here, it’s akin to a really good classic rock album where you can play the whole enchilada from start to finish over and over again and you drawn inspiration from it and don’t get bored whatsoever.


From the opening part featuring Josh Hawkins to the “over-the-top” ender with the brand’s newest professional Jordan Hoffart, the stable of Powell’s youngest riders is the focus of FUN! along with a few cameo tricks with Steve Caballero and other friends thrown in the edits as well. Dallas Rockvam, Derek Elmendorf, Aldrin Garcia, John White and Ben Hatchell definitely put together solid parts with good style and banging tricks all over the map. But perhaps most notably, Ben Hatchell blew the damn roof of this video with his well-rounded versatility and deep bag of heavy stunts. I don’t think there’s any terrain that this kid can’t step up to and properly destroy.

All in all, this video is a must see for any skateboarder that lives and breaths for unique spots and progressive skating.
