Unstoppable.
I've alluded to this before but it's always so inspiring to rediscover the virtual mountain of top-shelf coverage John has. This is Cards post #12 for the Chrome Ball Incident with still more to come. The fucking best.
I'd like to thank a few people real quick: Chris Nieratko, Isaac Mckay-Randozzi, Dennis McGrath, Clyde Singleton, Aaron Meza, Damon Thorley, Alyasha Moore and the Chez.
And I'd also like to throw out a few links to things that really made me happy over the last week or so:
this, this and this. So good.
FYI party people, I'll get more into this later but it does appear that the Chrome Ball Offices are going to be moving during the month of September so please bear with me. The site will be forced to go on hiatus for a few weeks during that time but it will return... after all, I'm not moving all these fucking magazines cross-country for nothing!
But seriously, where else would Chrome Ball relocate to?
That fs lipslide photo takes the cake this time around.
ReplyDeleteAlso, how bout a Dave Duren post, please?
Holler if you actually move to PTown. I have a grip of mags you may not have.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the work you've put into this site. It's absolutely amazing!
Cards Fo Life!
WOW !!! CARDS IS THAT MUCH MORE AMAZING !!! SICK PHOTOS AND ADS I'VE NEVER SEEN BEFORE. THIS PUTS A SMILE ON MY FACE. :)
ReplyDelete#1 forever. Great post to come back on after the week off. How bout a Chet Childress post someday?
ReplyDeleteBeen a rough summer here in CO. Nothing like a little Cards to lift the spirits. Holy crap, that last photo...
ReplyDeleteThanks again Chops.
one of those dudes where stills work just as well - and sometimes better than - video footage. That spit ad, man, people used to ride 44mm wheels... sheesh!
ReplyDeleteCards made me decide to get on a board for the first time at 30 years old. If he can keep going, I have no excuses. Excellent post!
ReplyDeletei saw much smaller than 44mm in 1992-93
ReplyDeleteWhere ya gonna work? Nike?
ReplyDeletei have been trying to find that pic of cards blasting that nosebone over the hip at the santa rosa park for so long. stoked! lately i have been puttin up stuff of the santa rosa park, so all the young guns can see everything that went down there. thanks!
ReplyDeleteSo many good shots in this one. Crazy style!
ReplyDeleteGood luck in Portland! I've never seen that Portlandia show before. None of the channels I get up here air it. Funny stuff.
Damn, Portland? Like someone else asked.. Nike get you?
ReplyDeleteHopefully this does not conflict with the sticker team duties but I am stoked. I'm glad Nike hires people like Chops.
ReplyDeleteThere's an old, old Spitfire press ad I was hoping to see on here.

Cap backwards, plaid shirt, black and white, full tweak...
Probably 91 or 92?
Anyone got it?
Bansai,
ReplyDeleteLike Chops said, this is the 12th Cards post.
