chrome ball incident #537: haunted and nervous










That McTwist is still one of the rawest things ever...

Tobin and Cards flex on USA Today for Big Brother #5, amongst other goodies.

Utmost respect.

Have a good weekend everyone. I'm pooped.

Big up to DLX.

chrome ball incident #536: rough, rugged and raw

















Today's "punk rock dress-up" pros wish they were this real...

Though when I was 10, my Bones Brigade sweatpants-sportin' ass was scared shitless of these dudes.

Granted, this is pretty far removed from what I usually post but Mackenzie's article is amazing and I love the photos... plus I needed to create a balance in reaction to all this handsomeness everywhere.

Just playin'... Dylan rips.

Sorry guys, no interview tomorrow.

chrome ball incident #535: no questions please











el toro enters the ring... heath's legendary '99 pro spotlight.

jump ramps, cornfields, bus stops, and thousand dollar armani suits...

the type of thing that is so different from what everybody else* is doing at the time that it almost seems like its from outer space.

i remember when the video part came out, it was quite the divisive headscratcher... now its essentially a no-brainer. insane.

*with the exception of jeremy klein, who equally killed it in that part

chrome ball incident #534: people get ready












no matter the get-up, Ethan always looks amazing riding a skateboard.

took a cue from the always excellent Vert is Dead after my man posted up Ethan's excellent Brain Floss article yesterday.

so stoked on Micke's Hammer article... perfect.

big thanks to templeton elliott, jay riggio and all the slap and sidewalk forum kids for the support.

looks like I can finally get an o.g. doll... can't believe how excited/hopeful I am to blow a paycheck on one of these.
