do you enjoy RAW images of the real world? tired of image based web logs FULL of the same old recycled images you’ve seen a ka-zillion times? the phrase “God Bless the Internet” wasnt invented for nothing…
Jerry Hsu and myself started NAZI GOLD and Dead to the World respectively, both are web logs updated directly from our cell-o phones… yeah yeah, you get it, you get it…
j’boi Jason Arnold done gone and done outdone himself with this epic portrait of an amazing person. so hyped to have this on the wall behind me at my desk, under the watchful eyes of Andy Roy i feel like i can do no wrong.
ive got a mess of photos from more than a few FLIP FEAST trips, these two are of young Curren.
Frontside flip and PERFECT rock skipping form…
im moving up!! the illustration i did for the cover of issue 53 of the skateboard MAG appears on Platinum Seagulls today!!! go take a look at what you already looking at above this text, while you are there… snoop the fuck around, im sure you will see more than a few things that tickle your fancy! ;)
a hand full of years back on this date (my little brothers birthday), at THIS exact time skateboarding as i knew it changed forever…
long story short, j’boi (not really) Leonard Samolinko spent his early evening drinking himself nearly into a coma, but before he could slip into that alcohol coma, he managed to get into his van and blow through a stop sign at 40+ MPH and into a tree, unfortunately he lived, not sure how he lucked out like that as his van was trashed and the tree was destroyed, but whatever, here is where it gets good…
somehow i managed to be riding my bike directly in front of the tree that old Leonard blasted into. talk about right place at the wrongest of wrong times…
not only did i break a fuck load of bones (most notable: femur) but Leonard had the balls to climb out of his totaled van and proceed to beat the shit out of me as i lay on the ground bloody and broken. i was yelling for help, nobody did a damn thing. out of nowhere Buddy Best and Andy Kormos (of RISE skate shop) happened to be driving by and saw something going on, not knowing it was me getting my ass whooped they pulled over to try help, as Buddy was trying to pull Leonard off me the cops showed up and pulled Buddy off Leonard and started bitching Buddy out leaving Leonard to keep letting me have it…
anyhow, things only got worse and WORSE from there. im gonna leave it at this… FUCK Santa Cruz CA cops and FUCK the Santa Cruz ER. the cops left me at the scene and the ER turned me away.
today i live. thank God. but skateboarding? it aint happening, i still do it on the regs, but its straight up painful to walk let alone try skate the way i want to. it could always be worse and for a lot of people it is, im just thankful today that i can still roll!!
i took this photo of my eye ball 23 minutes after the the ice on Sawmill Bay broke causing my mother and i to curse very loudly and run near light speed so as not to drown… turns out it was a really REALLY bad short cut, not to mention it was -14 degree air temp. sorry mom!!!
