Skate deck art show

Went to a skate deck art show a couple nights ago... very cool. I know some people crap on the whole skate decks being used as canvases trend, but I was genuinely impressed by this installation.





This longboard was my personal favorite. Wish I could have gotten a better pic of it...

Tom LaMarche kills Brooklyn

Spotted this on Prolly's Flickr...



That's so huge it almost doesn't look real! Tom going next level yet again...

Old School

Luke Stiles, the man behind the amazing (trust me) Empire project, recently posted a great set of photos that he has taken over the past couple of years. In the set are lots of pics of the Philly/NYC crew as they were filming for the original Bootleg Sessions video...



Damn that brings back some fantastic memories. I feel extremely lucky and priveledged to have gotten to know these guys, and everyone else that I've met over the years as well. It has truly been an amazing ride...

Thanks Luke!

Yu!

Yu from the Osaka section of Bootleg Sessions v.3 going off...!

New Bruiser frame

Milwaukee is hooking me up with one of the new production MKE Bruiser frames. It has a flecked silver base with a deep red clear coat on top. Are you kidding me? So gorgeous... they are really outdoing themselves with the custom paint jobs now.

Huge thanks to Drew and the rest of the Milwaukee crew, as always!




Prolly has a new Bruiser frame on the way as well... check it out here.
