Tommy Guerrero, Featured
Check out Van’s “Collaboratory – Tommy Guerrero – Part 1” on OffTheWall.TV
I first heard of Tommy Guerrero when he and I were young skaters, back in the late 80s. He was part of the Bones Brigade and is, through the latter’s videos, the source of some of the earliest memories I have of San Francisco as the truly amazing city that it is.
Fast forward a couple of decades and Tommy is more active than ever, as a skater (business side), a musician (and guitar store and recording studio owner) as well as a designer. A well rounded man, after my own heart. He has always been, is and will likely always be one of my true idols.
New Diabolical Skateboards Deck and T-Shirt
Check out what I received in the mail today, surprise courtesy of the always excellent Kevin Conboy.
Thanks Kev’, I’m stoked!
Diabolical is a Denver (CO) based skateboard company. Haven’t gotten Kevin’s connection back story yet, beyond the shared location. :)
The deck is their George Nagai pro model. You can see his handy work in the video edit embedded below.
Unsurprisingly yet always a source of contentment on my end, Diabolical’s site is running on WordPress (but of course).
The Twins
Featuring Pierce and Chris Brunner. I’m both speechless and jealous.
How It’s Like in my Dreams
I can safely state that the GoPro 2010 Highlights are the closest you’ll ever come to know exactly what goes through my head when I dream at night. And given the opportunity, I’d try everything featured in this video. Try me: you pickup the tab, I do the deed. ;)
Be sure to watch the whole video in full screen (and HD), it’s all worth it.
