Tuesday night's Stay Gold Premier was a ton of fun. The first show filled up so fast they had to have a second showing. Besides to $4 Miller lite that I bought, the Prince theater was rad. Here's pictures from the show. By the way, Brandon Westgate probably had the best part.
The multi-talented skate rat that is Jon Bocksel has put out a Super 8 short shot in New York City, San Fran, Chicago, Philadelphia and the highways and bi-ways of the Smokey Mountains. I have always enjoyed the work Jon has done. His Photos, Paintings, and Video Work always capture the grit and grime that rides shotgun with skate culture. Here is a quick glimpse from his film "Children of Clay" (available HERE). We are also really excited to have Jon apart of our "Deck Heads 3" group art show coming up on May 7th!

I'm sure most skate nerds have seen this yet. If not, it's pretty awesome. Spotted here.

Kids today don't talk about this guy enough. He's seriously one of the best skaters ever. He was fronstside flipping over skyscrapers before your dad got a beer belly. I hadn't ever seen this part 'til I found it on youtube today, and it's beastly like all of his shit. Also, the huge roof gap below is one of the stupidest and awesomest things I've ever seen somebody do on a skateboard.
Ill part from one of the most stylish skaters ever.

About two years ago the EXIT guys got together and decide we were going to build a skatepark in Philadelphia. We worked hand and hand with some of the best volunteers around, and today our park is one of the funnest spots in Philly for the public to enjoy. This Weekend the park received some amazing attention...

Fat Bill posted another montage getting ready for his video, and all I have to say is watch 0:53 Holy Lord. 360 shuv or call it an impossible I don't care that is insane. If these videos haven't made you want to just get out there and shred there is something seriously wrong with you.
Ahh the good ol' days.
