OFF! is a “super group” lead by ex-Black Flag singer Keith Morris and they are reportedly bringing “back everything we loved about old school West Coast skate culture.” Sounds good to us.

Police say Kevin McGarry, 42, of Ocean Township was found face down off the Jersey Shore’s Roosevelt Avenue Beach Wednesday afternoon April 11, 2012. He was wearing a wetsuit and still attached to his surfboard, according to a story on NJ.com.
He is not believed to have been in the water for an extended period of time when a fisherman spotted him near a rocky jetty off of Roosevelt Avenue, said borough police spokesman Capt. Earl Alexander. . . An autopsy will be conducted tomorrow to determine a cause of death, he said.
According to officials, it appears McGarry died “as the result of a surfing accident.” Our thoughts are with McGarry’s family and friends.

Apparently, Danny Way’s ten-year-old dream has been to build his very own Mega ramp in at his house in Kauai. Looks like he’s finally done it.
Here’s the story of how Danny rediscovered his dream and brought to life this never before been constructed ramp he envisioned a decade ago.
Sadly, to see the results of this dream you’ll have to see his movie Waiting for Lightning, because this is just a teaser.

Last night, April 10, 2012, most everyone was in Hollywood for the premiere of the Danny Way bio-pic Waiting For Lightning at the ArcLight Cinerama Dome.
Following the premiere everyone rolled over to the for an after party at The Roosevelt Hotel.
If you (like us) missed the movie and all the Hollywood celebrity action, just click right here to see all the photos of stars like Danny Way and his Mom (above), Ken Block, Tommy Lee, The Dingo, Johnny Knoxville, Daryl Hannah, Steve-O, and Adriana Patridge.
We’re guessing there were some skaters there as well, but not many of them made the red carpet cut it seems.
