Today at noon (PST) What Youth will premiere their little surfing film Dear Suburbia online and free for 12 hours. For those who haven’t made it to the Dear Suburbia tour (or live too far from the edges of the continent) this might be your only chance to see the film without dinging your iTunes account.
Here are the times around the world:
Your 12-hour screening window opens at …noon in California (Monday)…5 a.m. in Sydney (Tuesday) …9 p.m. in Hossegor (Monday) …4 p.m. in Florianópolis (Monday) …4 a.m. in Tokyo (Tuesday). . . It’s a one-time online premiere event for the project Dane, John John, Craig, Kolohe and the boys have been working on for a year.
Is there a gap between Jerry Hsu in real life and the gnar that showed up in Stay Gold? Did Louie Barletta put down Lance Mountain’s favorite video part? These questions and more get tossed out as Erica Yary and Rob Brink host away.
Chis Nieratko dives in on the Stereo Skateboards story with Chris Pastras and Jason Lee.
Pastras gives us a tour of his home town Metuchen, NJ and shows us some of his favorite old skate spots. Then the guys meet with Lee in the park to talk about how Stereo has evolved today from what it was originally. Lee shares his take on the return of Stereo, getting back into skating after his long hiatus and what he wants to accomplish working with the brand.
Volcom Snow is letting the kids do their own video parts with #IP2. And this is Daniel Brown’s turn. Here’s what VeeCo says about the project:
IP2 stands for “Individually Produced Parts” . Whereas, each rider has 100% control of the direction, action and content collected to produce their own part for Volcom’s 2012 Snow project. We identified the riding characteristics of our team, matched them up with a videographer and gave them the green light. We are excited to share their personalities, travel experiences and shit they pulled off this past season.
In addition to hitting the streets pretty hard, it appears that Mr. Brown also has a serious appreciation for hip-hop, weed and tittiies.
Feeling bad that you might miss something at Surf Expo this week? Well, here’s something we wish we missed from Boardworks Surf: it’s a Wake SUP Board. Forget the fact that if you’re surfing behind a boat you don’t need a paddle. Ignore the whole rope thing and there you are standing behind a boat with a paddle. We were, however, left with one question: was that Jeff Baldwin staring in a cameo eating scene?
The huntin’, fishin’, campin’ and skatin’ crew at Bohnam kicks it off in the woods with some fly fishing and then brings it back to the streets with Austin Lycans, Cameron Wetzler, and Sheehan O’Connel in their fall 2012 video. You long haul skaters may want to check out their Port-a-Pisser for those times you just can’t pull over follow the jump to see what were talking about. . . [click to continue…]
Jussi Oksanen tells his side of the snowboarding movie making business in Burton 13: The Fourth Trailer.
Everybody is always helping each other and making sure, if I get a shot then I’m just going to chill and help Mikey get his shot. That’s far more important than me getting five shots on one jump. If you get shots, obviously it’s going to make you feel better, but a long as somebody is getting rad shots, that’s what it’s all about.
In the sprit of mongoose vs. cobra, and honey badger vs. everyone comes Corvette vs. electric skateboard in a 60 foot race off the line. [Editors’ Note: This maybe be our worst post ever!]
