March 4th, 2008 · No Comments

This is one of the reasons why skateboarding can definitely be deemed as one sport that has “HEART.”
On Saturday, more than 60 skateboarders participated in a fund raising activity which aimed to raise money for the children of a man who died of an inoperable brain aneurysm.

Style - is it still present among skaters?

February 29th, 2008 · No Comments

This website served like a light bulb of sorts for me.
It made me think - and ponder on - whether or not style is still present among us skating aficionados. Do you think skateboarders of today still care about how they look? Or is the name of the game purely skateboarding skills?
Need your thoughts!

While I know that there are a lot of ultra modern skateboards out there, there really are times when you just want to “reminisce” and remember those good ol’ days when the funky, stylish designs for skateboards piqued the interest of skateboarders everywhere.
Even though those skateboards of before didn’t have the high tech features such […]

Is it a work of art or something else?

February 20th, 2008 · No Comments

Can you call broken skateboards nailed to trees and sneakers hanging from their limbs works of art? This very same question has been and is still a big issue in Fayetteville.
Apparently, the said city’s Board of Adjustment says it’s hardly a work of art. Instead, they think that it’s even an illegal sign!
Voting 4-1 Monday, […]

Blood on ice!!!

BLOOD ON ICE!!!
Did anybody watch what happened to Slovakian forward Richard Zednik of the Florida Panthers yesterday?

The recommendation has accordingly received preliminary approval but the three councilors who voted against the idea underscored that instead of naming community facilities (such as the said skate […]

Opinion poll: should you be 15 at least or not?

January 29th, 2008 · No Comments

The news about skaters required to be at least fifteen (15) years old before they can “formally” compete is getting the ire of a lot of bloggers, especially those who are very passionate about the issue. Can’t blame them, though…I mean take the case of Mirai Nagasu, for instance. Nagasu’s the new champion of U.S. […]
