Skateboarding and more ….
This week’s Yuri’s 80’s Re-Vert Fantasy Skate stop takes us to Seattle, Washington and the NSI Gotcha Grind circa 1987. Even though massive spinning air tricks ruled the day, precision lip moves a la Groholski and Schroeder started to make their way into the skating main stream. Check out all the skating along with the Super Slo-Mo cam, and some good tunes after the turn.
The good news. Sparklehorse makes some great music and are the featured artist on this week’s YouTube Tuesday. The bad news. Well, it seems frontman, Mark Linkous, has taken his life and with it all that great creative energy. RIP Mark and thanks for sharing your music. Check out all that is Sparklehorse after the turn.
Uhhh? Yeah, he made it. This week’s Monday Cover skater, Thomas Carter, makes this toe touch ollie over the door at Pier Park. Check out some more pics of Thomas shredding up the pipe’s inner sanctum after the turn.
Congratulations Thomas!
All you beat master rhyme folks check it out. Last week it was the Terror in Tahoe and this week, we heat things up with the Duel at Diablo, uhhh, uhhh, uhhhh. Yuri is down with the younger generation, now get down with the old vert dogs as they shred it up circa 1986. Check out all action after the turn on Yuri’s 80’s Re-Vert Fantasy Skate.
Well, this week’s YouTube Tuesday picks are about as far from warm and fuzzy as you can get. The place: United Kingdom, the time: early 1980’s and the bands: Anti-Nowhere League, The Exploited, Crass and GBH. Get your angst on after the turn as well as a bit of a crass education. EPM “system might have got you but it won’t get me” Out!
