The opening line of Rudy Johnson’s new Chrome Ball interview sets the standard for a whirlwind of memories of Blind ‘Video Days’, Powell’s ‘Ban This’, Girl’s ‘Goldfish’ and so much more. “The Gonz overpowers Stacy (Peralta) in my book.”
This is a must read interview if you love the inside gossip of the skate industry from yesteryear. Click the classic photo below for the sweets.
If this is not the best way to start your day then you may as well get a scooter this weekend and then shoot yourself. Watch Mark Gonzales and The Smiths’ Morrissey combine for ultimate fun times on four wheels. This looks like a re-edit from Dan Wolfe’s ‘Closure’ video but we just found out that it’s his Real to Reel edit.
So rad. Share it.
Here’s the OG edit:
Look what’s coming this weekend…
Great to see three British skaters in the final 8 of this year’s Vans Spring Classic event. The mini ramp and spine was built on the beach of Naples in Italy and looked incredible. Take in the video highlights from the finals below.

Anti Hero’s European ripper Chris Pfanner definitely puts the “P” in pop in this new edit. Unstoppable.
He’s been doing it for years and never disappoints. Dan Drehobl celebrates new wood this week with his beloved Krooked and Freedumb Airlines. Down for life.
Henry Edwards-Wood has somehow found the time to make a killer new edit on London’s skate scene in between fighting to save the Southbank with Innocence & Experience.
The full 16 minute video features a plethora of UK and European skateboarders with Oscar Candon, Jerome Campbell, Domas Glatkauskas, Blondey McCoy, Casper Brooker, Kyron Davis, Lucien Clarke, Nick Jensen, Sylvain Tognelli and too many more to mention. You will find it hard to find a better edit out there. Skate Edit of the Week.
Click here to watch the footage of this rooftop madness from Aaron ‘Jaws’ Homoki. No idea how his knees don’t explode, or how the roof doesn’t break and eat him alive.
Chaz Ortiz, Kevin Taylor and ‘Black Dave’ flew into Oz for some local street sessions and Zoo York demos and came back with this edit for your perusal.
There ain’t no rooftops in the forest on this occassion, but Jaws does have some new footage online today courtesy of Dekline.
