Boy, these are exciting times. Everytime I think to myself, “sheesh, the level of faggotry in skateboarding is at an all time high…” Somebody comes along and brings excitement to self dropped video parts, by yelling, “follow me on twitter!!!,” in the middle of their line. In an era of shameless self promotion, and an all around cardboard like flavor, I try to find little glimmers of hope here and there. Forget doing your own thing, go to spots, and only do what your are absolutely certain has already been done. Better yet, next time you are with one of your homies, just repeat everything he says all day. Oh, and maybe dress the same too… Then try to fuck his girlfriend. Nevermind the fact that in this sullen day and age, 2 minute interweb video’s are, “films.” Well hombre’s, take solice in the fact that if that is the case, this web video is like a fucking epic saga.
Shout out the 5boro boys, doin’ it right, for the right reasons!

Vietnam looks fun? part #2
Rad dad gets rad.
Wes waits for the weekend to turn up the heat for the A-frame event. Look at the judging panel he has to impress! Trevor Morgan, Daryl Angel, Jacuzzi Lou, Halba and The Asian Elvis. It was a tough decision on their parts, but SDdubs came out the victor with a gold win for Team America. Too bad blood tests both before and after the event showed positive traces for the pot. Shame Wes! SHAME!
It’s Friday.
The BGP Troll
The BGP Troll likes to lurk in the background of photos. Here, a BGP Troll is captured in it’s natural habitat doing what he does best…nothing. Caswell does his best to not let the lurking of the BGP troll get him down or mess with his head. There’s no stopping BGP Trolls. They are like poo poo in a clogged toilet.
Vietnam looks fun.
