Skateboarders, those habitual arbiters of style, always seem to make the coolest stuff, especially when it comes to retail. So, thanks to coffee industry website Sprudge, here are some of the best caffeine filling stations in the skateboarding world (pictured above, Boise, Idaho’s Push & Pour).
Coffee shop/skate shop hybrids are still relatively rare, but they cater to their local communities of skaters and ramp watchers, and they’re showing the world that serious coffee is a great fit for skating culture. I wish there were a hundred of these places to report on, but there’s not—at least not yet. Instead, I took a look around to learn more about seven cafes across the United States serving coffee-loving skaters, offering espressos with a side of grip tape and a helmet.
Because, you know. Of course we all need the THPS 3+4 reboot. Plus, you can play it on a PS4. Still. Plus, Rayssa Leal, Chloe Covell, Jamie Foy, Zion Wright and Yuto Horigome. . . but reportedly no Bam Margera. Huh? Still haven’t played the 1+2 reboot all that much. Oh well. Guess we’ll be able to wait until the alleged release in July 2025.
Following a horrific wipeout at Pipeline, being under for two minutes, a heroic rescue, and several days in a medically induced coma, North Shore charger Makai McNamara has been released from the hospital and is back home with his family.
It was Pat “The Eye” Bridges who introduced the North American snowboard world to “The Dingo,” so no one could say it better. We’ll all miss you, Dingo.
The Quiksilver women’s USA and Canada license was just picked up by Velocity Brand Group where it will join fellow Authentic zombie brand Lucky Brand Jeans in the company’s garment production machine, according to a story on Just-Style.

You know, ’cause we all could use a little more chaos and violence (and Nicolas Cage) in our lives. . . and yeah, getting some Peter WeirThe Cars That Ate Paris Ozploitation vibes for sure.
Shaun White and friends, who seem to believe people will pay to stand out in the cold to watch the first The Snow League halfpipe contest at Buttermilk Mountain in Aspen, Colorado March 7-8, 2025, have released ticket prices.
The listed price for finals day is $50. Sounds steep, right? There’s a catch. . . if you live in Colorado (which means pretty much everyone who might go) you get half off the ticket price. So it’s actually $25.
Saturday March 8 – Finals Day (9 a.m. – 3 p.m.) – includes Big Boi Concert
General Admission tickets are $50 ($60 on March 1) – Colorado Residents can save 50% on tickets by using code CO50 on General Admission tickets. Offer expires March 1.
They claim prices will go up on March 1, however, we’re guessing they’re get down pretty close to FREE by the time the event rolls around. If you’re interested (Big Boi will be there), and you want to go, click the link for all the ticket details.
Instant camera. Cool collab. Why not? Burton’s version is $599 and comes with a custom Burton case, or $399 on Amazon. Click the link and buy three. Then you can print your photos without getting creeped on. Bonus for certain.
