It’s nice seeing the progeny of skate royalty hold things down all by themselves. Riley Hawk is obviously not suffering from Frank Sinatra Jr. disease.

The Skateboard Mag’s Animal Chan brings back all the festivities from last Saturday’s Maloof Money Cup kick off at the Maloof Family’s Palms in Las Vegas in LRKRVSN. This is one time we can confidently say the video is better than being there. Click the link for photos.

All that’s missing is some banjo music. . . and a canoe. Of course, when the game is released tomorrow (May 11, 2010) an Xbox or Playstation 3 game system and $59.99 is all you’ll need. Click here to buy it.

We interrupt this Saturday afternoon to bring you a message from our sponsor–The 1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 442 circa 1977.
See that girl with the surfboard? Might be time for Jonathan Paskowitz to revive this groove entirely.

Josh Pomer’s documentary about Santa Cruz, California’s infamous The Westsiders which premieres Saturday night (May 8, 2010) at the Santa Cruz Film Festival, is reviewed by Mark Conley in the San Jose Mercury News.
The resulting visual history of Santa Cruz surfing is beautiful — and unlike anything before compiled. It ranges from the skateboarding-spawned origins of aerial surfing with an innovator named Kevin Reed to the divergent personalities of Westside icons Richard Schmidt (now a popular surf instructor at Cowell’s) and Vince Collier (the self-appointed Godfather of the so-called Westsiders surf gang).
From there Conley says it “buries the nose and tumbles.” But we still want to see it.

We have to admit that every time we see a bobsled track or water slide we think about doing this. Leave it to some crazy sponored Euro to make it happen.

Each time we see someone taking a brand new Apple product and wrecking it we’re reminded of the scene in the Steven Spielberg’s creepy movie AI where a crowd of screaming futuristic MMA fans get boners watching sad little robots being torn apart by machines.
Why does the world take so much joy in seeing “revolutionary and magical” products destroyed? Built To Shred’s Jeff King and Chad Knight probably can’t shed any light on that, but they know one thing for sure: it’s great for traffic.

Kevin Pearce was on NBC’s The Today Show this morning (May 4, 2010). And it’s so good to see him back home, back communicating, and apparently on his way to a full recovery.

Never really paid that much attention to Josh Kerr, but this trailer from his new self-produced bio-pic Kerrazy Kronicles is fixin’ to change all that. As Stab Mag says:
From the death drop to double-barrel at 50 seconds and the flurry of Lien grab oops, turns and tweaked punts, there’s enough here to suggest Julian and JOB have a dark horse to rival them for the year’s best profile film.
We can’t argue.
