Skateboarding and more ….
While you sip your favorite wet weather drink waiting for a chance to skate, check out Casey and KC’s video creations. First up, Casey heads to the Great White North for a week of skating followed by KC’s bug karma clip at Irrigon. Check out the videos after the turn. EPM “etymology and entomology” Out!
The rains have rolled back in for a day or two providing us with the perfect opportunity to present some weather appropriate tunes featuring the Editors and British Sea Power. Emoting Ian Curtis vocal stylings, a la Joy Division, the Editors will give your introspective side a boost. Add to that a bit of British Sea Power and you’re set for a rainy day romp about your inner environs. Check out all the mood setting tunes after the turn.
Sometimes all you need to pull that elusive move is a bit more attitude. Case in point, this week’s Monday Cover skater, Xavier Pinard, styles a frontside feeble while sporting the standard issue Drehobl lip stick. Check out a few more pics of Xavier working the ledge after the turn.
Congratulations Xavier!
Get excited! There’s a new Generation X interview up for your listening pleasure featuring NOFX drummer Erik “Smelly” Sandin. Yeah, we know it’s sunny out and you’re probably skating but when you’re ready for a distraction, we have you covered. Remember, Mr. Katen is back live Sunday, June 20th for another episode of Generation X on KBGA FM. Check out this week’s interview after the turn. EPM Out!
What you, what you want? Corner airs at Pier Park? You’ve got it. Check out Shawn and MC reconnecting with an old friend after the turn.
How do you know when you’re on the path to skate Zen? When you are having as much fun as the dudes from Sorcery 118 seem to be having. Check out all the GVK reviewed and approved action after the turn. EPM “laying down the sounds of one hand clapping” Out!
Local videographer/skater Darrin Mosman has been busy behind the lens. Check out a couple of his recent creations featuring Northwest skaters Jessica Starkweather and Mark Conahan after the turn. EPM “two minutes later” Out!
We’re changing it up a bit on this week’s edition of YouTube Tuesday with a slice of space age fashion and music. Doing Stanley Kubrick proud, check out way too many space age infused videos after the turn. EPM “rebooting HAL 9000” Out!
This week’s Monday Cover skater, Melissa Dafnos, has an appetite for deep grinding action. Case in point, here’s Melissa adding a bit more wear to the already well worn coping in the deep at West Linn. Check out a few more pics of Melissa getting down with the coping along with her Callin’ on Colin interview after the turn.
Congratulations Melissa!
