It’s good to know that even we could give Tony Hawk a run in a game of Skate Nerd. Lance Mountain, on the other hand, is on a whole different level. The guy could be world champion.

Who better to guide a Wall Street Journal tour of the NYC Burton Store than long-time snowboard entrepreneur Rohan Marley. You can probably guess the rest.

The Annual Bear Mountain Hot Dawgs & Hand Rails event on Saturday September 18, 2010 was a reminder that Tahoe Dangerzone star Nick Visconti isn’t just another sports model with a pretty face, pleasing physique, and melodious singing voice. No, he’s a real-deal rail slayer.
“I felt like I rode hard and landed progressive and creative tricks on each feature,” says Nick Visconti. “The level of riding was amazing. Literally on another level. Any one of the competitors could have taken first because everyone was destroying it.”

Burton’s hardcore unit Special Blend/Foursquare‘s joint seasonal advertising/promotional video Fuck It is now available in the iTunes store for $8.99 (and on DVD for those stuck in the 2000s), though we have to say, this long teaser was quite enough for us.

We don’t follow and/or watch NBC/MTV’s Dew Tour, but like most of America we follow Shaun White. In Salt Lake City last weekend he whooped all the other vert dogs to win one on the Dew Tour and even landed the armadillo on his last air. The results looked like this:
1. Shaun White 94.75
2. Pierre-Luc Gagnon 90.50
3. Bucky Lasek 88.25
4 . Andy Macdonald 83.50
5 . Bob Burnquist 63.00
Not bad for a snowboarder.

Volusia Country Florida, the shark bite capital of the world, logged two more bites this weekend as two surfers felt the teeth at New Smyrna’s Inlet, according to My Fox Orlando.
One surfer was bitten in the hand by a shark while he was paddling out south of the Inlet. The second shark bite was also a surfer who was bitten on his left thigh. . . Both men were taken to Bert Fish hospital for stitches to close up those bite wounds, lifeguards say were caused by sharks.
Lifeguards reportedly flew the purple flag, which in Florida “indications hazardous marine life.” We never knew.
