Mob By Max

If you KnowNo, you know I LOVE a crew flick. Whether it's the skate sesh, the party, or the random mob up, I LOVE a crew photo.

Thanks to Max for taking another great one.

5th Homebase Halloween Skate Jam 2009

This year marked the 5th Homebase halloween skate jam. After a rain delay Saturday, the weather couldn't have been better for Sunday. The theme this year was the glorious 80's and the park was a ebay collectors dream of vintage skate goods, all of them being ridden like they were made for.
The events this year included a Lost Soul Jump Ramp Rampage, The $300 finals of the Saugy Showdown(with Kyle taking the dough), the Best Trick on the gap to picnic table, and the crowd favorite as well as the sure to be seen again, Downhill Race

Friday November 6th at Homebase

The Downhill jam was my personal highlight of the day. The bridal path from the park to the lower lot is a fun way to leave. It's not the craziest hill bomb you can find, but the ruff ground,loose gravel, and leaves, make it challenging. Add in the 90 degree turn as it warms up and its a challenge. You already know it becomes style to not slow down.

In the sake of safety and fairness, heats were held instead of an all out death match. Fastest time received a bag a product. My camera failed before I could get the older guys raging it, but they could not resist a Old Man division and showed the younger guys how it's done. We stacked up at the corner and had a blast cheering and critiquing.

Bubba, Steez through

Kurtz was surfin all day


Kyle got the most runs, and paid.


But so did the others


Even Bubba


There was a Lost Soul Jump ramp jam. It was run super tight, Ray was in total control, it was timed, and the ramp was kept at the same place as kids tried to ollie out the park. Oh yeah, the ramp was of the best construction and easy to skate. Im pretty sure the winner got a snowboard and proceeded to have his own product toss. It was Epic,and that was serious.


They had Hecklers also


This could be a mag photo in the early 80's


Colbert on a borrowed whip


The kids lined up for the product grab. It was like when people put a bone on a dogs nose and try to make them sit still, the kids were rabid and the sponsors supplied.

Revenge of the Nerds. Star Wars Galaxy 4 Auction

On Friday We got in the cars and headed to APW Gallery in LIC to check out the Sucklord hosted auction to sell two of the return cards from most of the artists in the SWG4 Die-Cut Project. It was a pleasure to meet some of the artists and the collectors. There were big wooden/acrylic helmet cut outs done by Jason Atomic and others including the much talked about KaToPe and new acquaintance Patrick Francisco. The Sucklord's personal figure was on display as well as the customs from the SuperSuckOff 2 show last month. Suckadelic released their own series of cards in dope throwback waxpaper wrapper, featuring the Sucklord and members of The Original Villain Network. I'll try to post the pack I bought.

Can someone help me get a Mary Papers card? JaguarNono@gmail.com

Thanks to Morgan, Spooky Boooty, Len Bellinger, Lawrenzo Sanders, Luke Koch, Beerlao ,and of course everyone else that was down to come out and support. It was a blast.
