Yet another bullshit company comes to light for 2010. Beverly Skates, going squarely after the mall skater demographic. There is an infinite amount of ways to pick apart this crap, but my favorites are the lack of an actual team and not one picture of any one riding a skateboard. Nice work, good luck.

we are so, totally, like skateboarders bro.

nice trophy.

letter jacket, check. white guy with dreads, check. fake haired chick with vans, check. 2010 is ours!

The full half hour long Kill City “Hobo Code” UK tour video is now on the interweb, covering the Kill City teams ghetto-as-you-like summer tour as they camped their way from Milton Keynes to the North East then back down to deepest, darkest Wales.

Dustin Dollin continues to pump out the best skateboarding reality show not on television. In this episode, Lizard King talks about his beatdown/nosejob at the hand of Geoff Rowley and his coke snorting first aid plan. Mermaids, falling off the wagon and so much more. For this I’m making up a new word, unmissable. “This is the best fuckin’ life I’ve ever lived.” -Lizard King
Burnout interviews Antwuan during the Low Life Tour over at Thrasher. “I don’t want problems…going to jail and shit, but it just happens ya know. Shit just happens.” -Antwuan Dixon

Another day, another Mika Edin clip. Apparently in Sweden only tricks starting with a 360 kickflip will count, so Mika Edin decided to work it out on this rail. To noseblunt slide, nosegrind, willy grind, whatevs, just ride away.
Alright, listen up, this is important. If you support real skateshops, they support skateboarding and skateboarding grows organically through people that live skateboarding. Deluxe has come up with a way to make sure you can get any Deluxe products directly from your local shop, it’s called SkateShop Connect. This promotes sales in your town and stimulates your local skate economy instead of mail-order. Initiatives like this are the reason skateboarding will survive the mainstream madness. Check it out.
