Just love this story about skateboarders using the mortgage crisis to find empty pools! Pretty obvious to use realty search engines to find backyard pools.
I've always felt that skaters were like cockroaches. The ultimate urban creatures. Taking advantage of their surroundings for their needs. Maybe it's a schoolyard bank, maybe a fire-hydrant or curb and now the home foreclosures. That pool looks epic!
And my dogs using the holidays as an opportunity to get some LUV
Article in the NYT on skate shoes has this quote from Mike Vallely
I think skateboarding is more fashion than function
It’s more aesthetic than anything else. It’s more rock ’n’ roll than athletics.
Hmm... Vallely always was a showman.
Damns! That looks pretty athletic to me! (love that shadow btw)
This guy think skateboarding is way more function than form. The roots say get on board and push it to school, but if there's a hill on the way or a driveway you can carve, then you better look good riding it. Whacha gonna do?
Speaking of skateboarding and shoes and fashion, I want a pair of these!
Just stumbled across the Skate and Annoy site. 80s zine archive is terrific!
Includes Harsh Vibes #2 from Milwaukee featuring Peter DiAntoni creator/editor/photographer extraordinaire of Cog.
Skate and Annoy's whole site is pretty great!
