NOBODYS - part 1

Film / Skate

The Nobodys was filmed and edited by Kyle Shura circa 1997. It features many of of the people I was skating with around that time in my small town of Kelowna BC—Most notably Ryan Smith. Over the next few weeks I'll be uploading this lost classic part by part. Put us on your route right after Buttery Ass Mondays.

Kyle Shura's NOBODYS (foot productions, c.1997) starring Keith Yerex, Mike McKinlay, Sam McKinlay, Jeff Ferner, Simon Barry and Ryan Smith. Also featuring tricks by Josh Sacrey, Aaron Loyie, Jon Bunyan, and more.

next week we look at Sam McKinlay's part and talk to him a bit about it.

MY AGENDA

Day two here in sunny San Diego. Dylan and myself braved the industry big wigs today with highlights being watching Reda play himself in the new EA game "Skate 2" and the MegaRamp at asr. after a walk about we headed up stream to Agenda where it was really poppin' off. Straight away we made nice with our old friend Justin at Altamont. Then said whatsup to Damon Way at incase before going upstairs and enjoying a beverage with Adam from Converse.

Things were wrapping up so we decided to catch the Damn Am awards presented by NIKE SB and the Skateboard Mag in the ballroom back at ASR. Highlights? Well, Will Marshall was nominated for the viewer's choice award, but the biggest highlight has to be Felix Argueles' "best team manager" award winning speech when a fying chinese throwing star came from across the ballroom to land directly in his forehead, causing him to bleed from his head and leave the stage. More from San Diego tomorrow, we're off to this party now.

BERLIN AD BUST

Art

Kaws got it going in the bus stops, but these dudes really 'put it to the man'. Not by making them into Simpsons characters, but by exposing them for what they are. Sadly, these tool windows are all too familiar to most.
