While in Sydney, Australia for the run up to the Vans Bowl-A-Rama Tony Hawk took some time to talk to the media about how the Olympics need skateboarding more than skateboarding needs the Olympics. Wise words from a man who knows.

Yes, apparently Late Night With David Letterman is still on and as is the custom he’s interviewing Olympic gold medalists. Here he talks to halfpipe gold medalist Kaitlyn Farrington. If you need to know anything else, watch. Oh, and if you want to see Sage Kotsenburg utter the first words we’ve ever heard him speak, follow the jump. [click to continue…]

How is Shaun White preparing for the Olympic Games? He took to Twitter to show that he’s been dining on a local delicacy saying: “Food in Russia is amazing! #McSochi” Wonder if this is part of a “viral marketing” campaign? Might as well get paid to eat, too.

Really don’t know how we missed this one. Maybe it’s because we never watch Larry King Now. But 48 Block alerted us to this interesting interview with Rob Dyrdek. In the interview we realized that there is no getting around it: Rob Dyrdek lives his life and makes things happen.

While Scotty Lago was battling away in the Mammoth Mountain superpipe for a spot on the 2014 US Olympic snowboard team, his “long-time girlfriend” Bridget Brunet (real name, apparently) was busy participating in the Miss New Hampshire USA pageant in Manchester, New Hampshire.
NewHampshire.com couldn’t have been much blunter with their coverage:
While Brunet was winning the Miss New Hampshire USA crown, her longtime boyfriend, snowboarder Scotty Lago, fell short of the scores needed to put him on the four-man halfpipe Olympic Snowboarding Team nominated by the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association Sunday afternoon at the conclusion of the Sprint U.S. Snowboarding Grand Prix in Mammoth Falls, Calif.
Well, at least they have something to celebrate!

We’re no fans of Justin Bieber, however, when the kid had his house searched and violated by nearly a dozen LA County Sheriff’s officers last week simply because the Biebs was accused of “throwing eggs at a neighbor’s house,” we’re glad he’s left SoCal and getting in some quality shred time at Aspen. Seriously. We’re living in a total police state these days. It’s crazy!

Ken Block has Hoonagan’d out a new Ford F-150 Raptor for winter driving. We’re not too into those big green letters on the sides, but if someone could cover those up, we’d be down to take a test drive. . . sure we would.

Stephanie Gilmore was doing a shoot for Vogue at Australia’s Bondi Beach “recently” when she nearly had a wardrobe malfunction (follow the jump for those photos).
What we hope everyone learned from the above photo, however, is that it’s very difficult to look good surfing next to Stephie. . . even if you’re Laura Enever. More after the jump via The Courier Mail. [click to continue…]
