A little Hood Action...
Having just blogged Wednesday, and being super lazy and bereft of a single interesting thought...I decided to enlist the help of Demzilla to get this party started. Yes, I know you're thinking that he could just post this in the forums...but I dig this because he's got a message...and didn't use "..."s. It's kind of like a public service announcement written by a rad member of the Skate Community.

The Meltdown...
I'm going for a record number of weeks for starting the blog with excuses and apologies. This week is all about the intense heat wave VanCity has been suffering through. We're talking face of the sun heat. Step outside and immediately combust heat. Sweat dripping on your keyboard causing fry out electrocution stuff. I slammed skating and left a puddle that would have left a perfect chalk outline if the CSI dudes had to investigate. Cause of death? Victim took his weak-ass Canadian self outside when he should have been hiding in the frozen food section at the Safeway.

Got Nothing Up Front
Been writing lots of heavy crap lately. Getting started is always the hardest part. It's easy once you get some speed and are rolling, but until then...you're stuck standing still. I guess it's best to just push off and see what happens. Huh? Let's get started...
Again...I've slept on a lot of great stuff this week...been ridiculously busy with a ridiculous life...but here are a few things that caught my attention...

I’m Back...Kind of...and Kind of Sorry
It's been a while. Heavy stuff has gone down in my life...but time, a trip to Maloof country, a solid Thursday night heckle sesh, and a pre-work rip at the park have got me back in the saddle.

Designer of GIRL Challenge, Exposed!
It's Ron here, filling in for Cuz. If you've been following my TWITTER, then you might have known that a new video was going to drop today. In the first video of a new series of "Meat the Skate Team" hosted by me, I was able to sit down and chat with the designer of the now infamous 'Can You Spell GIRL' Challenge.

We Are The World...
...so let's get along...y'all. Thanks.
I can't avoid what CNN and everyone else tells us we have to talk about. But if I do, I'll be on that negative side of the fence. So, rather than do that...I blasted "I Wanna Rock With You" and skated as fast as I could. It felt good.

Shingo Mama No Oha Rock
OATS Brigade Vol 4. Did you expect anything less than super rad? If you did, you obviously haven't watched their stuff. Was super psyched on the contrast in styles.

Hard Stop Around 3 AM
...Or whenever I pass out...
...Hey posters...keep on posting...I know it's frustrating getting swamped by the volume and watching your hard work get pushed down the thread mountain...but give yourself the odd bump and see what happens. I troll as many places as I can, but here's the best/most likely place to get my/the team's attention. Shtuff keeps getting posted as I type...case in point Rotten Apple's DSOT (see below)...you guys are killing me with your stupendiditenous...
