Ryan Sheckler seems like the wrong person to be representing a debit card called “BillMyParents.” Wouldn’t it be more fitting for his parents to promote a card called “BillMyKid?”
Either way, it’s like some bad 90s flashback.

Seeing as Denver, Colorado seems to be a little higher in our minds this week, here’s a little taste of what goes down in the Mile High City when the Snow Industries of America aren’t around from the crew at CLFX and 303 Boards Shop. You know, just to remind us that Denver isn’t only about snow.

With all the Jeff Grosso hype going down lately, it’s nice to see that Vans is taking a look at the man behind the myth with a new video series titled Jeff Grosso’s Love Letters to Skateboarding. It’s supposedly about “whatever Jeff wants it to be about” and that sounds just right to us.

Mark Visser Rides JAWS at Night! from Fortrus Sports on Vimeo.
With the hoopla surrounding The Eddie we missed this yesterday. But armed with NASA quality lights “international big wave surfer” Mark Visser hit jaws at night during the January 20, 2011 monster swell. With the lights Visser seems much easier to spot in the whitewater. The footage will be included in the documentary series 9 Lives.

Last night CNN broadcast a little profile on Shaun White. It was part of their Revealed program and the videos have gotten Shaun nothing but grief from the independent snowboard media.
Snowbroader.eu said the profile was:
…full of ridiculous claims, everyone just saying how awesome he is, including himself, all the footage was provided by sponsors and advertisers, and we could go on and on. So if you don’t know what to do right now, check how CNN revealed Shaun White.
Yobeat in a post titled: CNN Has Nothing Better to Cover Than Shaun White by Shaun Blanco said:
In fact, this whole program reminded me of a Transworld article. All the footage was provided by sponsors and advertisers, The “editorial” is provided by someone nobody even knows, all claims are ridiculous, all the riders input is strictly worthless sound bites we’ve heard a million times before, and they call it important.
We haven’t watched it yet, but we’re going to just as soon as we link all this video up. . . follow the jump for the rest.
