The day will include a tour led by exhibition curator Elizabeth Gordon and professional skateboarding demonstrations on the half pipe mini skate ramp, which has been designed and built by Spohn Ranch Skateparks. Opening festivities are included in the price of regular admission. For those who can’t make it to the opening event, fret not—the exhibit will be at the SDMoM until September 9.
“Mike is the perfect person to capture the spirit of Dime,” says Haney, “with his rebellious ‘stand up for your family and by your friends’ attitude and always shooting straight from the heart. Mike and Dime are two peas in a pod—rock stars and legends in two different realms, but not so different…entwined with the same ferocious intensity and presence in each of their performances and, at the same time, they both bear the most genuine of gentle hearts… I am very honored to have Elephant Brand Skateboards represent another passion of Darrell’s—skating!”
If you liked Pantera, you’ll love this board apparently.
Walker Ryan shares the word on college (UCSD’s 50 spots), professional skateboarding, and life in general. Watch it and learn. And get ready for part two, because this is only part one.

“Fuck. You couldn’t pay me a million dollars to wear one of those logos on my forehead. Their shit is fucked. It’s cool for those guys; they make a lot of money. I despise logos and I think it’s contractual if you sign up for one of those things that every time you’re on your board you have to have one of their logos near or on your body; it’s kind of retarded. They make little stickers that look like your shirt tags and you’re supposed to put them on you. It’s retarded. I don’t understand the Nascar outfit. The whole race car uniform shit just blows my mind. But all those dudes are rich now so kudos to them.”

It’s nice that Gravis is making shoes that someone can skate it. Isn’t it? Burton hasn’t ditched skateboarding entirely. These are the Quarters LX. If you were wondering.
