Popping up around NYC

Dig this vibe.

Ollie, circa 1992, downtown Eau Claire, WI.

This a photo of me. My friend Ryan Zepaltas sent it after he found it in his museum (garage) — I think he took the photo. It reminded me that I used to know how to ollie. Those were fun times.

Just yesterday, I was teaching my 8-year-old how to ollie, and he damn near can do it. First day. I remember it took me like 3 months to learn how to ollie. Kids these days…

Wow. Got on my skateboard for 1st time in 4 years. Felt like talking with an old friend.

These are made out of skateboard decks.

“Skate decks eventually see its life shortened by snapping, cracking and/or wearing out. Purchasing new decks is a never ending cycle and this was evident by the tower of old decks that were reaching to the ceiling of my room. We can’t throw away these decks because they hold sentimental meanings to us. I looked at these unusable decks every day and thought there must be something I can make with these. I decided to make some accessories with the old decks and this was the birth of Harvest. The works of Harvest are through the perspectives of a skater and as an artist. As a skater, I want to take responsibility of reusing skateboards when they were no longer useable. Also, as an artist I want to explore the possibilities of what can be done with skateboards. We see the care and effort that a skater can have for his/her deck and we also acknowledge the origins of a skateboard. We believe that if the small things we do can connect to sustainability then we’re doing something right. We’d be satisfied in our effort when people look at products and start thinking of ways to recycle.” (via Harvest by haroshi Exhibition: Skate & Destroy Recap | SLAMXHYPE)

Incredible. Just amazing.

I can’t tell if this is a sweet skateboard ramp house, or a sweet tennis court house

Sexy skateboard graphics these days, I tell you…

I was a skater (wait… I guess I still consider myself a skater, but I’ve stopped skating.) Anyway, when I skateboarded regularly in the 90s, skateboard graphics pushed the envelope in regards to “sexyness.” But those were almost always cartoons. These ain’t no cartoons. Obviously. Wow. Buy one here. [via]
