monkeys are not donkeys

Ok, I may have found the worst top graphic ever. If not the worst graphic.

First off i gotta say that what makes this so bad for me is the fact that they were not actually trying to produce somethng shitty,it was checked ok by many many people..i assume.

-points of interest-
1) A gorilla with only human head accessories and sandals,surfing.
2) A list of golden sacred rules for skateboarding too blurry to make out.
3) An official nintendo seal of shittyness.
4) A stutter.

I'm sober!

I thought of a trick. Rolling up to a ledge/rail backside, nollie backside 180 sugarcane grind.

I guess you could do it frontside as well, but backside would be way sicker.

Watson should've thought of this for You Will Soon, cuz I'm pretty sure you will soon. Or someone will soon. Hell, maybe I will soon.

Go Vote...

...for Don to be in the Battle At The Berrics 2!!! I don't know how his flatground skills are these days but it would sure be sick to see him face off against someone with his ultra-popped tricks.

Well damn...

...Corey Duffel's Strange Notes "Checkin' In" part is like 5 minutes long of sick footage. Most notable though is the clip from Super Ditch here in OKC. Gnar!!!!



Funny how his "throwaway" trick at Super Ditch is some shit I've always thought would be so sick to do. Anybody round here done that?

The Footy Tape: Part 1

Wayyy back when this is how we logged our footage. When I say "we" I mean myself and T Bird Two Bit Terry. Everytime we came home with clips, we immediately copied them to a VHS tape via VCR. We didn't have computers with Final Cut Pro or anything. So any slow-mo you see is straight from the cam to the tape!

Anyway, for better or worse it's going up. In chronological order, no music, no image/audio correction, no labels, just "The Footy Tape." But I'm doing it in segments.

It's hard to remember the actual year that most of this went down. I'm pretty sure that the first clip in this first segment is the very first trick I filmed with my Digi8 camera that I got for my birthday in 1999, because I remember filming the festivities of 2000's New Years Parties.

Most of this is footage that I compiled into the 1st ever unofficial TDS Video. It was edited straight from cam to VCR, with a soundtrack and everything. I only made one copy which I gave to Micah Friedman for his (13th? 14th?) birthday. It is now lost. But I still have MOST of the clips on...The Footy Tape.

Points of interest: Lens cap scraping the ground, bucket hats, pickup truck graphics, DC shoes, The Nuge's cackle, the tennis court in Nompton before there was a skatepark, TBird's sweatpants, pre-hippie Micah Friedman in a green suit,and The Dirt.

Retarded.

Happy Easter! Here's some crap!

In lieu of a post that's informative or includes at best throwaway footage, here's some pictures of possible graphic/sticker/shirt ideas I was working on awhile back when I was excited about stuff. Actually I think I made all these when I was getting paid to sit in front of a computer at my last job. Regardless, inspect, critique, comment, let me know if for some reason one or all of these should be produced in some format.
