Slingz To The Lazy Skater Rescue

by The Editors on October 20, 2009

Main Banner

Apparently, kids are so busy today sexting, facebooking, or gaming that they just don’t have any hands free to carry their favorite fashion accessory. Thank God, the people at Slingz noticed this. With their new Slingz strap it’s easy to carry a skateboard while talking on the phone, reading a magazine or sending a text.

Whether you’re a professional skateboarder, a college student, or a casual skater, we all face the same problem. Nobody likes to lug around their board under their arm or worry about where to leave it so it doesn’t grow legs. With the new SLINGZ skateboard strap, your problem is solved.

Oddly, we seemed to have solved this problem long ago. We actually ride our skateboards. Weird, huh?

Skate And Annoy Getting DoS’d?

by The Editors on October 20, 2009

SkatenannoyAccording to Kilwag, one of our favorite skate blogs Skate And Annoy has been hit by a denial of service attack and he’s been wrangling it for a couple days now. Here’s is explanation for the sites current retro WordPress graphics:

My service provider thinks the site has suddenly and instantly become mega popular, thus causing server overload due to the high amount of php in use on the site. I’m more inclined to believe we are experiencing a Denial of Service attack – some individual or parties trying to overload the server and make it unavailable for viewing.

What does this mean for fans of the site? “It means you should get back to work! I’m working on the problem in conjunction with the ISP,” Kilwag says. We wish him luck. . .

HUF x Vans Old Skool

by The Editors on October 15, 2009

Huf Oskool

Normally, we make fun of grown men who wait overnight out front of HUF for some new shoe. But those are Nikes. HUF’s latest is a Vans Old Skool and that’s a completely different story.

The Vans Old Skool by HUF is constructed with a canvas upper and full grain leather heelcup. Featuring a siped outsole, custom printed triangle pattern on the midsole and custom woven labels & embroidery, the Vans Old Skool by HUF is available in black, navy and cardinal red and sells for $85.

Might have to break down and actually buy a pair of these.

Looks like Burnside has claimed one more victim. Looks like the FJ Cruiser locked up on a Smith. Wasn’t the first, won’t be the last.

“It seems like Halloween is getting here early,” said sheriff’s spokesman Lt. Randy Christian.. . Deputies were called to the Kangaroo Express on Old Springville Road in northeast Jefferson County. The cashier told them a man pointed a semi-automatic stainless steel handgun at her and demanded money from the register. . . .He was wearing a black hood and black gloves, Christian said.

In Alabama skateboards are probably faster than most cars. . .

Yes, this is Ryan Sheckler acting. . . as opposed to being Ryan Sheckler reality TV star. He plays a young hockey star with The Rock in The Tooth Fairy.
