chrome ball incident #609: the worst










"Fuck you guys, I'm going topless."

I usually skip those high fashion-inspired Droors ads but the thought of scum champ Freddie starring in one always makes me smile.

Eric Stricker (RIP) delivers an enlightening Mosaic-era interview for Strength. Super good.

Dude's responsible for the installation of 2 skatestopping handrails in my West Philly neighborhood: that bluntslide to fakie on the 4th stair and a noseblunt slide on some steps between 2 harsh banks (in an Ipath ad a few years back).

Always stoked on vintage Fred. After seeing Eastern Exposure 2 we all adapted a hunchback style to try to improve our switch ledge tricks...
Didn't work.

I remember opening up that transworld with that 180 aws ad in the 90s and being so incredibly hyped on it. That whole ad sticks out in my mind to this day.

That old ad with the 180 over the rail still stokes me out. That Albuquerque spot is hella fun. I remember seeing a lot of stuff go down there. That 180 is beast!

Freddy gets my utmost respect. I watched his part in Photosynthesis atleast five times last week, so dope.
