I want to get a new skateboard deck, but I don't know what kind. Can somebody help me chose a deck brand and model? My Darkstar deck has been taking a beating, but I've only had it for two months. I don't want to chip it. The graphics are pretty much killed and it is just taking a beating. Please help me choose a new deck.

Tech Decks are mini skateboards. They are also called fingerboards. They are awesome. You can do all the tricks you can on a real skateboard on a Tech Deck. There are many different graphics and are also many of your favorite brands to choose from. Tech Decks can be used alsmost anywhere and they fit in your pocket.
Do you like Tech Decks? What is your favorite one?

Kris Hudson is our second Pro for Suicide Skateboards. We feel he will be a great help to our company as a Pro and we also feel he fits right in with what we're doing and what we plan on doing. We couldn't ask for anything more. His Pro model is coming soon. Now David Cotter pro model is still available now. You can also see Dave and friends in the Suicide Skateboards video project out now!! 1st Choice Sk8 Shop carry Suicide Skateboards products. So if any other skate shops want to carry Suicide Skateboards go there for bulk orders. Now we just teamed up with Woodchuck and they are going to help make and take Suicide to the next level Thanks for the Support!! Also be sure to check out the new History of Suicide section

-sponsor ship-
 I need to know what sponsors like to see, which tricks, stairs, handrails, what does it take someone please tell this i have a skate team im working with called
''serpents union''.
 
my name is Tyler owens but my friends call me scarface due to the fact that i have a scar thats pretty big on my face but it looks cool. I got it from a car wreck that almost killed me. It was a head on collision, like ramming in to a wall going 80mph and not knocking it down. Needless to say i was back on my board in one and a half weeks with one hundred fifty nine stitches, i was rockin em well as a matter of fact adam dyet a pro sakter of darkstar,dekline,bones,etc.. met me at a demo at new-generation skate park it was the dekline demo to be exact he asked me what happened and i told him about the wreck and he said ''your lucky to be here alive kid''  i said yea and sk8boarding is part of the reason too. Most will look at that and say haha how did skateboarding help you survive, well the doc said that if i were so healthy i would have died, of course im healthy because of sk8ing.
 well thats all i have time to say if anyone has questions send me a message.http://www.myspace.com/tylerowens123

CORE Action Takes on the Action Sports Community


Grapevine, Texas (November 21, 2008)--CORE Action has entered full-steam into the action sports social culture. Having completed its beta-stage the CORE Action website has launched revealing its edgy, gritty look and first-rate content. At the heart of COREaction.com is the Nation, an action sports community that provides a forum for enthusiasts of all ages to communicate, share and express themselves through the sports they love.

CORE Action also provides its viewers with day-to-day coverage of what's happening in the action sports world--skateboarding, snow sports, surfing, motocross, BMX and water sports are all covered highlighting the best news, events, photos and videos from each discipline. CORE also informs and entertains users with in-house video coverage, featuring one-on-one interviews with top-pros, hot on the scene action from local and national events and short entertaining vignettes to get the adrenaline pumping.

While CORE reports on what's going on in the pro scene, our real ambition is to provide a forum for the young and up-and-coming athletes to get their story out and let themselves be known. Gone are the days of sending in "sponsor-me" tapes to companies in desperate and often futile attempts to get noticed. With CORE, the athlete can log-on to the Nation and post a bio, videos and photos in an effort to promote themselves within the community. CORE's main objective is to support the sport's underdogs and amateurs and to forge lasting partnerships within our member network as we grow into the future.

"Not only do we provide up-to-date original content, but we do it in a safe environment where kids are protected and can be among their peers." Kent Holcomb, President of CORE Action explains, "We closely follow the COPPA laws which protect underage kids from predators and mature content."

Nick Moscia CORE Action Marketing Director agrees, "We're all about reaching out to the action sports community. For us, it's about the kids. This is a place where they can hang out, chat with friends and check out the latest videos, news and events."

The CORE staff comes from within the action sports culture--skateboarding, snowboarding, surfing, BMX and motocross. From the slopes of the Rocky Mountains to waves of Cocoa Beach, Florida, the CORE crew are embedded in their prospective scenes. Preserving the culture and empowering riders to enjoy their sports and to reach full potential is our objective at CORE Action.


CORE Philosophy--Within every discipline of action sports lay a CORE group of people. They are the ones pushing the boundaries and limits on a daily basis. CORE riders raise the bar and create new standards for the rest to follow. They are the epicenter of the Industry and help keep our Culture alive and thriving. These devoted folks eat, drink and sleep the sport which they are true to and willingly make sacrifices to keep the ride going. Living a CORE lifestyle defines these individuals and establishes a place for them in this world...

CORE Action was founded in 2007 and is an internet-based action sports community which specializes in social networking and providing premium action sports related content. For more information go to www.COREaction.com.

My Blog: Intro
By: mnlocal


Alright,  so i've been skating since about july 4, 2000.  not like i've been keeping track.  i'm a medium level skater, we'll just say i paced myself in between injuries.  my favorite obstacle is a manny pad, my least is a stair case.  I love skateboarding,  its the only thing in life that keeps me giddy like a fat chick at a candy store.  i'm going to try to keep this blog up to date with what's happening with me and what i've been up to. i'm also going to post if any local kids are ripping around my area.  i live about a mile from 3rd lair but i only go there when the weather is shi*tty.  i prefer to skate at crystal, or new hope but i still have my roots at the streets.  until next time

SHOOT TO THRILL OPENS “DIGITAL DIVISION” + $2000.00 BEST PHOTO PRIZE FOR BOTH AMS AND PROS!


Color Magazine and Red Bull have received so many inquiries and applications from pro teams wanting to take part in the 2008 Shoot to Thrill contest that they have decided to open up the Digital category to everyone.

Now, any team made up of filmer and one to three skaters can upload their 3.5-5 min digital video (shot between Sept.5-7) onto redbullshoottothrill.com. From there, viewers will vote for their favorite video, granting $3000 in filming equipment to the winners. In addition to the Digital category prize, all photographers who want to submit their photos are eligible to win the $2000 prize for Best Photo.

“The line between amateur and professional are so blurred today. We’re all interested to see what the Film Division teams will bring in, but I’m most excited for the D.I.Y. entries and who the Digital Division might uncover.” —Sandro Grison, Editor-in-chief, Color Magazine


 
CONTEST DETAILS
Shooting dates for all teams are September 5-7, 2008

FIRST FILM DIVISION TEAM ANNOUNCED:
Ten teams across Canada are competing in the Super 16mm film division. Red Bull Shoot To Thrill announces the Vancouver team will consist of filmier/director French Fred Mortagne, skaters Keegan Sauder, Bradley Sheppard and returning from last year's acclaimed "Ming Juice" team Knife Fight is Rick McCrank. The Vancouver team will be photographed by Dylan Doubt.
 
DIGITAL DIVISION:
Teams must register at redbullshoottothrill.com to be eligible for the $3000 Digital Category prize. Once they have edited their 3-5min video they will upload it to the website and wait for the public to decide the winner. Register now and before August 30th at redbullshoottothrill.com
