Piff Stick promo
The new 7 minute Piff Sticks promo made it to the web, which is result considering the amount of freaks that Morph, Dan and the rest of the crew manage to attract out there on the streets. Press play for kush-smoked London living.
Thrasher has delivered a sick new re-edit of Steve Caballero this weekend shredding the streets with a ton of style. Best board slides in the game? This is a must watch.

Lakai took Skate Edit of the Week with their welcome edit for Norwegian powerhouse Karsten Kleppan. Ridiculous skateboarding.
Organika’s Walker Ryan dropped an epic new edit for Patrik Wallner’s lens this week. The spots in this part are outrageous and Walker takes full advantage of every single one of them in style.
The most watched edit of this week was provided by The Boss. This varial heel flip battle down the Hollywood High 16 is testament to why Andrew Reynolds is so highly rated.
We can’t end this round up without Aaron ‘Jaws’ Homoki who returned with more gnar filled carnage for Buster and Hunter O’Shea’s latest flick, ‘A Happy Medium 3’.
If you want more from Jaws head here from last week’s compilation of amazing ollies he has launched over the years.

If there was one legendary musician you would want to see up there alongside Krist Novoselic, Pat Smear, and Dave Grohl playing Nirvana tracks in a hot sweaty club, J Mascis would most probably be at the top of the list.
This phone footage from last night’s secret show after the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ceremony at a 300 capacity bar in Brooklyn called Saint Vitus has just hit the web. It’s an absolute treat!
Joan Jett also played….
As did Annie Clarke….

Why Fiddle While Rome Burns?
Following our sports brand chat with Pierre-André Senizergues that we ran back in February and this article with Keith Hufnagel from HUF and Kelly Bird from Lakai that ran two week’s back, the backlash against sports shoes in skateboarding continues to build from the skate shops and zines that are not bound by their financial clout.
This week Serio skate shop in Ventura, California has lashed out about Nike, Adidas and Converse’s so-called ‘commitment’ to skateboarding”:
“As they say, every vote counts, every dollar counts. There are companies and so-called “core shops” out there who claim they’re down for skateboarding but are actually thieves and wolves sucking all the juice from it. Is the industry already rotten beyond repair? Perhaps. Is it all going to fade away into existential meaninglessness anyways? Certainly, but I don’t see those things as an excuse for apathy or turning a blind eye to the wolves at the gate.”

Last night’s Hall of Fame ceremony with Nirvana as guests turned out to be a talking point. Joan Jett was picked to sing Nirvana’s biggest hit ‘Nevermind’ and crushed it in the process. When was the last time Jett reached notes this high? Her version filmed at the Saint Vitus club (230 capacity secret show after the awards) was much better. Lethal Bizzle would have been a better choice.
As for Lorde. Yuck. Amazed she was even invited. Thankfully Kim Gordon’s contribution made it worthwhile, but I bet Kurt would have been stoked on the fact that all three tracks were fronted by females. Good call.
Organika’s Walker Ryan has filmed an epic new edit with Patrik Wallner this week. Press play to see some of the best skate spots ever seen in one edit. Amazing work.
There’s been much speculation of what exactly P-Rod has been planning since he left Plan B last summer, but now it’s all out in the open. Primitive Skateboards has been born this morning with the team line up of Paul Rodriguez, Nick Tucker and Carlos Ribeiro.
“For more than 17 years, skateboarding has been my passion and my life. To create my own board brand and have a chance to be a part of skateboarding beyond just being a pro skater is a dream come true. So after nearly 10 months of silence, I’m excited and proud to announce the arrival of Primitive Skateboarding and introduce our amazingly talented team riders, Nick Tucker and Carlos Ribeiro. Thanks to all of you for the continued support and I hope you enjoy what’s to come!” – P-Rod
New Primitive decks will be available worldwide on May 1st. Inquire at your local skate shop on what’s coming, but for now, take in the limited ‘Gold Eagle’ decks that have launched today at the Berrics and sold out in an instant.
Look out for footage dropping later today and see more deck graphics and info here.
