2John Florence and Blake Vincent Kueny are back at it again with a little film called Space. Lots of preaching from pastor T.D. Jakes in this one. Surfing starts at the two-minute mark, but it is worth the wait. More evidence that 2John is a solid wave rider.

Yes, Nike goes straight to the emotions with their new Dream Crazy commercial narrated by Colin Kapernick, but they kick off the ad with Nyjah Huston. It’s now cliche when the Swoosh jumps in and opportunistically commodifies politics (they’re just shoes), but it will offer up more eyes on skateboarding than anything this side of the Tokyo Olympics.

The Absinthe Films crew is on the road this fall with their latest independent snowboard movie Stay Tuned.
The list of riders appearing in this year’s movie is impressive: Absinthe veterans Nicolas Müller from Switzerland, Norwegian viking Mikkel Bang, as well as backcountry icon John Jackson (USA). They are accompanied by the US riders squad around Hans Mindnich, Brandon Cocard, Judd Henkes, Ben Ferguson, Jed Sky, Demetri Bales, Brouck Crouch, Olympic Champion Red Gerard, Cam Fitzpatrick, Kyle Mack and Aspen Weaver, Mat Schär (SUI), Severin Van Der Meer (SUI) and Frank Jobin (CAN). Stay Tuned promises to be another outstanding snowboard production capturing epic moments in true Absinthe manner. Exquisite backcountry riding as usual, paired with creative urban snowboarding.
For all European tour dates, follow the jump.

California Skateparks’ Joe Ciaglia and crew have finally made it into the pages of the 2019 Guinness Book of World Records with the world’s largest skateboard (35 feet, 7 inches long).
Joe Ciaglia, director of California Skateparks, originally created the big board for MTV series Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory and is a 12.5 scale replica of Dyrdek’s own board.. . “The hardest part was not having any directions or blueprints,” he told Guinness World Records. “We just started and figured it out as we progressed. The process took us about 10 weeks, a lot of things were trial and error.”
Congrats, Joe. See, print still does matter.
