Nobody

Life / Skate

Don't know how it is up in Canada before elections but here in the US it just gets dumb. Saw this sign in Portland recently and it struck a chord. When there are no sane option the only sane thing to do is nothing.

Go skate.

Nope, player pt. 1

Life / Skate

 

Waking up in the Northern California coastal forest after a long night of driving with a group of strangers can put things in perspective. The previous day I was picked up by the bulk of the $lave team for a two week camping and skating trip through the northwestern U.S. with the goal of making it up to Vancouver. The full story will be in an upcoming issue.

Black Label pro Peter Watkins was one of the guests on the trip.

Horton Art

Life / Art / Skate

 

Illustration is something of a mystery - the brain thinks and the hand translates the signals into an image that is detailed, complete and in short, beautiful. Ben Horton is one of those individuals with a gift. He also runs and operates $lave Skateboards and has a nice pivot to fakie. Check last year's interview with him for more.
