My Blog: Thrasher Visit
By: caymanskateboarder

Mark Appleyards Mom just called me to inform me

Jake Phelps along with a team of skaters are coming from Australia to Skate Black Pearl Tomorrow, so everyone this side will be out to watch. I will keep everybody updated as to who is coming tomorrow.

Slap Magazine visited Cuba, I heard they had a blast, they also left without shoes, socks, and skateboards as these people over there love to skate so if you have any boards or completes you would like to send over let me know as we have flights every week Fridays and Mondays. Lets keep them skating as equipment is difficult to come by.

Check out in Google search, skateboarding in Cuba, I found a websight, skateboard chrisis in Cuba, there is some great footage of their park and also their struggles when they break a board. When you see this you will feel so luky that as for you all you need to do is go online or check out your local skate shop. THEY HAVE NONE!!!!

SkateboardVillage News: Mark Johnson Skater of the Year!
By: SkateboardVillage.com

For two consecutive years in a row Matix team riders are named Skater of the Year. In 2006 Thrasher awarded Daewon Song Skater of the Year and 2007 Mark Johnson took S.O.T.Y. title. With the amount of coverage MJ’s been receiving in issues of every mag covering Lakai tours (not including his exclusive TWS issue and his three parts in Fully Flared), Marc is at the top of the S.O.T.Y. meter.

High Speed knows how to throw a serious party in celebration of the ubiquitous Skater of the Year award. Dae was drunken with happiness last year accepting the S.O.T.Y. award and we're hoping for another memorable intro from Gav… Good times are ahead for sure.

These parties are open to the public via ticket, so anyone’s invited. Besides it’s always a good time staring at Eben’s hot wife and listening to Bad shi*t again. You can be sure we’ll be repping MJ hard at Thrashers S.O.T.Y. party this January. Hope to see you there. Congratulations Marc!

In Team news

Geoff Rowley and Mark Appleyard have decided to part ways with Active Mail Order

Geoff says:

"As of immediately, I am no longer able to endorse Active mail order as a team rider. Differences of opinion and direction have been a problem for quite some time and I am quitting for my own ethical reasons. I will be concentrating my focus on my main sponsors, and working with them to support the bigger picture of skateboarding as a whole."

Mark says

"I quit Active today due to some disagreements, and I no longer feel I can support them as an endorsed rider. I hope they will move forward and support skateboarding in a positive and fair way for the good of everyone, and in this I wish them the best of luck."

Jimmy Carlin is on Osiris

Ask for it at your favorite skate shop. Nuge is coming in blazing after having the opening part in Foundation’s Cataclysmic Abyss.

My Blog: EA's SKATE™
By: Eeh_Boi

The closest thing to being on a skateboard, Electronic Arts (Nasdaq: ERTS) announced September 19, 2006 that SKATE will be released for the PlayStation®3 system and the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system in 2007. SKATE will deliver the feel of skating through innovative controls, authentic cameras and a fully reactive skateboarding city. The game so far features professional skaters such as Danny Way, Jerry Hsu, Chris Cole, Jason Dill, Dennis Busenitz, and PJ Ladd, as well as a reactive city and relevant in-game cameras that capture and deliver the most authentic skateboard videogame experience to date.

"Our game offers a skate mecca for both skaters and gamers in search of the definitive authentic skating video game experience," said Scott Blackwood, executive producer, EA Black Box. "We’re focused on capturing the actual feeling of skating with the innovative control system, the physics driven animations, and the intelligent cameras working together to really deliver the closest thing to being on a board."

SKATE’s unique control scheme captures the true feel of skating versus the typical button mashing gameplay of past skating games (Thrasher's Skate And Destroy, Grind Session & The Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Series). Featuring physics-driven animations, gamers will have a unique gaming experience every time they pick up the controller since no two tricks will ever be the same.

Developed by EA Black Box in Vancouver, British Columbia, SKATE will deliver all the style, fun, creativity and culture of skateboarding without the countless hours of practice, broken bones and hospital visits. SKATE has not yet been rated by the ESRB.

Skateboard News: November Rain at Leeside
By: vsc

Leeside this SUNDAY the 19th - 2- 6 pm --------4pm video plays
so come and watch the great NEW toy machine video .....PRODUCT TOSS FOR BOARDS....see some BANDS....eat some bbq-byobbq if yah want ......drink some hot cocoa...
skate something in a tunnel away from the rain

LETS SHOW THIS CITY HOW BADLY WE NEED AN INDOOR SKATEBOARD PARK ....or LEESIDE!!!!!!

It’s coming up to a busy weekend for the Vancouver Skateboard Coalition and our supporters… China Creek Appreciation Day on Saturday and another event at Leeside on Sunday. A collaboration between the Coalition and the Leeside Stewardship Group, “November Rain” is going to be a reminder of how cool Leeside will be when it finally gets finished.

November Rain is going to run from 2-6pm on Sunday, November 19th. There’ll be live music starting at 2:00 courtesy of local bands, including Jaws, Joel, and the funnest and most fun-loving band in the city, The Doers.

Skating? Of course, that’s what it’s all about. Bring your tight tranny skills to the barrier jamboree. A strong showing may even tempt Deer Man of Dark Woods or Depth Leviathan Dweller to rise from the shadows.

And when the sun goes down, get cozy and brace yourselves for a screening of Toy Machine’s new video, Suffer the Joy , which has been sending audiences into a frenzy.

Leeside is under the Cassiar connector at Hastings and Hwy 1. From Renfrew St., go east on Pender to the dead end and turn left.
