Here’s the latest trailer about the Maloof Cup that is going down this July. If you’re not aware what the Maloof Cup is, then you need to wake up! It’s a skateboarding contest that is going to be giving away 100K to the #1 street skateboarder. The street course, to be made in Las Vegas, will be specifically designed for street skateboarding and will not feature some lame X-Games quarterpipe crap. This is the real deal, and it has been recently picked up by a national network for live coverage, just like a legit sport.

Fallen Footwear has been promoting their latest video offering through their ads in magazines, online trailers, and teasers for a while now. Most of the videos are easily accessible, and a lot of media is still out there on youtube and other places. But to consolidate the effort of bringing quality video to you, they have launched a video gallery with their own media player.
Now you can get all the Fallen Footwear skateboarding footage onto your computer via the official Fallen Footwear website. The videos range from recent footage, trailers, teasers, to older footage, all in high quality streaming media. Not bad, not bad at all. Looks like Fallen Footwear might be trying to one up Lakai’s Fully Flared release, which recently won a Transworld Award for best video.

Just when you thought the internet provides free content via youtube and other locations, you hit a site that doesn’t allow you to share media. Such is the case with Bones Wheels, and their latest footage from Damn Am. Sure, they don’t want people pirating their footage or taking content away from their website, but come on…throw us poor skateboard fans a bone. (no pun intended) So to check out the footage from Bones Wheels and Dam Am you gotta visit the official Bones Wheels Company Website. I did manage to smuggle a screen grab, for you hackers out there.

‘Skateboard P’ and NERD have just released a video to their new single, ‘Everyone Nose’. Now it doesn’t take a very intelligent person to realize that this song is about the Yayo. The video features skanky girls going in and out of bathrooms, sweating and wiping their nostrils. If you have the time to watch the video, you will also notice appearances by Kanye West, Lindsay Lohan and Corey Kennedy.
So here’s the question, is Pharrell and the NERD crew, pro or anti-drugs? It’s hard to tell but this video is LAME.

Facedown Records has really been doing great things for the metal,hxc, and music scene as a whole. They’ve continually developed great music, and are growing by leaps and bounds. This is a great thing, considering that the rest of the music industry is suffering from poor sales all around. One thing I’ve always loved about Facedown Records is their commitment to the d.i.y mentality, and continual push of the scene, regardless of what anyone believes.
Here’s the latest video from one of the best bands on their hxc roster, For Today, followed by their latest tourdates.

As we all know, local boy Jamie O’Brien, took the 2008 Da Hui Backdoor Shootout back in January and took home a cool $50,000. He was followed by Bruce Irons who nabbed $25k and Ola Eleogram who brought home $15 g’s. DC Shoes just released the following footy from the contest. As you can see from the waves, this contest proved to have some of the best conditions at Pipeline in recent memory.

Filmers are filmers right? Not exactly, most are not all that great or just flat out aren’t good at all. Arizona has been coming up in the skateboard scene these days. Alot of good photographers and filmers are coming out of it too, such as Robbie Jenkins and Frank Pantano. Speaking of Frank Pantano, he has some good filming skills. Everything looks good, chooses great songs to edit, and great colors. You can’t ask for anything better, well in my book you can’t. Heres some footage from his site pantanoproductions.com. Heres two great videos for you to enjoy off of Frank’s site.

It’s not secret that Iron Maiden has been one of the front runners in Metal music for a long time now. While other people int he metal genre (metallica) have been known to get old and stale, and hire shrinks to write lyrics for them, we can trust that Iron Maiden is still kicking out the jams.
With this latest collaboration with Vans shoes, they bring another relic alive, and look to crossover their appeal for music and culture with reckless abandon. These shoes will hit stores roughly around “Holiday 08″ and are already the talk of metal maniacs worldwide.

Roughly 5 days after the X Games committee announced that they killed off vert, it’s back from the dead! Vert skaters are trully rejoicing everywhere! Maybe they will add some flair to vert this year and get the skaters pulling antics like the image below. That could really bring vert back to the pop status that X Games is seeking…
Did the Man above have a helping hand in this resurrection or was it just the X Games General Manager, Chris Stiepock? Well you be the judge but it was interesting to hear what Mister Stiepock said about this whole ordeal…
“The X Games has always had a commitment to the athletes and our consistent communication with them has allowed us to collectively grow this event to where it is today,” said Chris Stiepock, General Manager, X Games. “In this particular case the communication took many turns but a consensus by the athletes has emerged that has lead us to reinstate Vert as an X Games discipline this year. We will continue to work with the athletes to make the X Games relevant and successful.”
Nice move X Games, way to listen to the people and the actual skaters! Welcome back to life and hopefully you will be around a few more years. Can’t wait to see what Shaun White, Bob, Bucky and PLG have up their sleeves this year. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

At least that’s what the X Games thinks… April 3, ESPN announced that they would permanently be canceling Vert Skateboarding from X Games competition.
“It’s time. It’s been time. ESPN’s always a little slow on the uptake. It’s no secret that the vert field has stayed the same for the last decade. It’s no secret that there aren’t any vert ramps for kids to ride outside Southern California. If you want a vert career, you have to move there,” says X Games General Manager Chris Stiepock.
I think they should keep vert but spice it up a bit. Maybe let everyone go at once or even put in some obstacles in the middle of the ramp. Or better yet, maybe set the skaters up with balls that they have to throw into baskets when they are at the climax of their jump, and then they can be rewarded points based off the amount of balls they make into the basket. Who knows, but if you are listening to me right now ESPN, I would definitely take these ideas into consideration.

Bummed I just found out about this now but The Berrics had a nice little April Fool’s joke yesterday involving Ryan Sheckler.
The Berrics - ”The Battle Commander not only leads the troops into battle, but also plans attacks and formulates strategies. He is often both the brain and the brawn behind the army. Inside the Berrics, this position has been held from day one by none other than Ryan Sheckler.”
