Jason Adams.



The Kid during the Think days. He rode for SMA afterward and then Sonic and Scarecrow before winding up on the Black Label. Adams left the Label for a couple of years to ride for Enjoi and had a part in their Bag Of Suck video. That's probably my favorite video and I'd be willing to make a half assed claim for Bag Of Suck being the best video ever. But I'm not going to go there.

RIP Bob Biniak.

Eightball.



With all the appearances 40s of Olde English malt liquor made in the early 1990s, you'd think they sponsored skateboarders. They could have been the Red Bull of 1992. It really was a simpler time back then.

Underground ripper taking down a handrail.

There is a cool new clip on Thrasher website with Jake Phelps, Curtis Hsaing, Dan Drehobl, John Cardiel, Coco Santiago and a couple others skating a small vert/big mini ramp. It looked like a fun session.

Forties & John Cardiel.



A couple of classics in the truest sense of the word.

I'm liking Austin Stephen's weekly video selections on the Toy Machine website.

It's a cold and supposed to snow again outside. This picture feels all nice and warm. I like the kitty and bird drawings, even though they don't really fit in with most of the Santa Cruz art, other than AP's Otter slick graphic.

If skateboarding does make it to the Olympics, somebody had better use one of their runs in the medal round to pull off a homage to Neil Blender where they do a few tricks and then stop skating to draw on the ramps.
