The Halloween Slide Jam 2011: Oct 30th
Hello Gnar-Ghouls and Shred-Goblins,
Are you sick and tired of the same old boring Halloween filled with broken dreams and melted candy corn? Well then, drop that busted pillowcase, pick up your shredsled, and get some treats for tricking at this year’s Halloween Slide Jam 2011. Read More
Video: PC News “Broadway Bomb Weekend Part 2: Slide Jammin’”
While lurking hard in New York City for the Broadway Bomb, we had the opportunity to meet and hang out with so many new and inspiring skaters. We also had the chance to kick-it with some of our East Coast homies that we don’t get to see that often. The Davenport brothers (Travis & Brian), of Push Culture News , are two of the dudes that we don’t get to shred with as much as we’d like. Anyway, when we do get to chill with these dudes it’s always good times. Between sessions, Wheelbase’s Marcus Bandy had the opportunity to rap with Push Culture News about the Wheelbase ethos and the community in general. Check out this brief interview in the above video, along with some rad skating from the Earthwing slide jam and some other rad interviews with legends Jeff Budro and Cliff Coleman. Read More
Video: Landyachtz “Eh Team Episode 19: Get In The Van”
Like Hansel, “Landyachtz is so hot right now. Landyachtz.” This new Landyachtz video, Eh Team Episode 19: Get In The Van, is a must-see for sure. You wanna raise your stoke-o-meter, watch this video. You wanna view the whole Eh Team killing in, watch this video twice. You wanna experience the epitome of shredtasticness, watch this video three times. We would usually point out a rider or two who especially killed it, but the whole Landyachtz team slays it in this episode. Again, a must-see for sure. Enjoy!
Muir’s “Heavy Metal Hardcore”
Local events are always bitchin’ because it’s all about the community building. Now, we don’t want to sound like some “hugs-not-drugs” d-bags, but we’re serious. You can go ahead and spend heaps of cash throwing a strategically marketed hype-fest, but it will never compare to the local crew of skateboarders getting together and throwing a rad little shred session at a local spot. As I said, it’s all about growing the skate family. Read More
2nd Annual Texas Slide Jam: October 30th
A few of our homies in the Texas skate community are throwing a jammy-jam event later this month. They sent over this flier and the following info about what’s gonna go down. We think they have since changed the location, so make sure to check out there Facebook event page (click here) to confirm that shitznit. Anyway, If you can make it, we suggest you do. Word on the street is that the dude who does those crazy no-comply slides to revert is going to be there. Get some!
“Fellow Skaters from around the World,
As many of you may already know, Texas riders are really getting involved in the racing scene (Brian Cortright & Tommy Watson just to name a few), but we do more than just race skateboards downhill. We skate everything: DH, pools, parks, freeride, whatever. Which is why I am more than stoked to present to you the 2nd Annual Texas Slide Jam. Last year’s event was awesome, and this second time around wont be anything less than exciting. If you aint in Texas yet, buy a plane ticket!”
