La folie Dogtown & Z Boys semble toujours sévir gravement outre-atlantique, la preuve à New York City, Soho, où un célèbre chausseur californien se paye quelques m2 (square feet plutôt) de pub, captés par Mr. FX de passage par là bas le week-end dernier.

Pushead is a hardcore punk artist most famous for his artwork for Metallica. He also created the record labels Pusmort and Bacteria Sour, and fronted the punk band Septic Death. His artwork is characterized by incredibly detailed skulls. He also designed hardcore skateboard graphics and ads for Zorlac Skateboards during the 80s and beginning of the 90s and was writing for magazines like the skateboard bible THRASHER. Now he designed the Nike SB Dunk “Bruised” and you will see it first!

So be at the launch and freak out at the Stuttgart Skateboard-Museum! And of course the entrance is free as usual!

Essence trop chère, villes embouteillées, pollution… L’avenir de la voiture est bien sombre…

One day, maybe three years ago, a kid cruised into the skate shop I managed in one of the most high-tech wheelchairs I’ve ever seen. Since he was obviously handicapped and not more than twelve years old, I couldn’t believe how well he was navigating the tight arrangements of racks and tables. There was an older kid with him, walking perfectly fine and dandy—his brother I gathered.

The kid in the chair perused the store like he was ready to pick out some skate gear and rolled up to me: “How much is the red Pro-tec helmet?” he asked.
