Vince Sabo's opening at Homebase. Stop by Homebase NOW to see it before the month is over. Vince worked hard and the pieces are priced to sell, go cop a original piece of art to give for christmas, you know they'll love it and you'll look all hip and creative.

SABO


Luke and N.Jay know how to take a flick.












I know where you will see this profile pic soon. Can a Jaguar get some photo credits on MySpace or what?


Emery said my coverage meter has been low lately, so he sniped my break.


Then it was off to some party at Allentown Brew Works ( thanks for the comp Peezy )
I think Pat was going to play guitar, instead he also got some new defaults. Credits man?


No, Not Kanye. Kanye never built a halfpipe for a picnic.

RA da Rugged Man , The Uncanny, King Mag , Adlib, and more

If your down with underground hip hop you've been witness to RA. He's rocked songs with the best, from Company Flow, to Biggie, from Kool G Rap , to Jedi Mind Tricks. Ask him why he's playing Allentown and he'd probably tell you he's washed up. Truth is, King Mag and Adlib are working with real cats and bringing them back to Town. The Sensi Starr Record crew will be opening with The Uncanny and others. If you don't know RA , it's not too late, just hide your girl and get ready to not give a fu@k.

I'm not sure what to expect but if he gets half as hype as this I'll pay twice.

Halloween Skate Jam 2008

This Sunday was the 3rd annual Homebase Halloween SkateJam at Saugy Park. Thanks to Escandalo's anniversary party the night before( Congrats Girls!) there were a lot of foggy heads, but the weathermen did what they could to provide some sun to burn it all off. It was a beautiful day. After some raking and leaf blowing to dry the ground the session started up. Cap Cee was on the turn tables, manning the "hip hop way back machine" with my favorite cuts from the 90's. The always welcome and always entertaining 5Boro crew came through to skate, complete with personalized Warrior vests ready to rep their set. The candy & stickers were flowing non-stop for everyone.

Thanks to Po ,Homebase , The Hometeam, Dan Pensyl and 5Boro Skateboards , CapCee and AudioDynamikz, and everyone that stopped out to help, skate and chill. See you next year.

Colbert was trying to sell me used skateboards.
I told him I already have one and he kept saying he could
"Put me in one at a great price."


Andy V. "You talking to me?"


Euro Flare


Frank got a Funk'ed up ankle but a irie attitude


Kurtz opted to skip the costume I guess.


Lucha Shiner Libre


Dustin Krueger


To give a idea of how Gary rolls, he apparently had elbow and knee pads to go with his Double Dare outfit
but only wore them at the bar and not to skate, thats gangsta.


N.Jay.


Po was with these kids the night before.


Yeah, this guy brought Jesus with him. Connects, you know.


?


Brendan was laughing at how all the suckas watched the Best Trick
and left the slant all alone to shred.
(also my best pic of Alex Duke during Best Trick. bs5050)


5Boro's newest and most Peruvian pro Danny Falla and Joe Tookmanian


The Warriors..I mean..5Boro's Willie Akers


Just Vote, but ride a Lost Soul to the booth.


Jimmy Larson


Elf. Maybe?





Look at the focus and amazement on Ballin's face.
Colbert is revealing what Phil was doing the night before, TO Phil. Honest.




Game of SKATE on the side




The Best Trick this year was on a flat bank to flat bank with a hubba. As always it starts out a little unorganized then as the legs get loose the ante is raised and the cream always rises. Luke came through again with the win , and $100.
Special shouts to everyone that ripped including Wes, Alex, Eddie, Kyle, TieDye, Lil Barns ,and anyone that landed something over the set up.

Artsy Mind Freaker


Luke


TieDye


Wes. Ready to take it fakie if ya needed it.


Eddie with the ill Bs180 NoseGrizzle


Luke Swizz 5-0


I'm sure Luke would have rather this was a little more ssbsts, but a make is a make.


Skills to pay the bills. Or ,The gift to buy the Piff.


After the main session was over Kyle still had some unfinished business to handle, in the form of a kickflip 5-0.
A couple committed tries and some financial motivation was all it took for him to nail it. Kyle was a contender for the big purse so I was stoked to see him handle his bidniz and earn some gas money at the same time. Good work Kyle.

The catch was tight.


The make was even tighter
Kyle kickflip 5-0


The product toss got wild and the Little Man held on for dear life.


The payoff.


more product winners



Then it was time for the crew shot. If you get to KnowNo, you know I LOVE a crew photo!


The middle finger version is always a crowd pleaser.


After the Jam and a shower it was back to Phil's for the BBQ cool out
Where Ballins was holdin it down outside on the Flame
(yes, dog's ,burgers, and even clams on the barby..mmm)


And Colbert was holding it down inside on the stove.
(Veggies, corn, even potatoes..mmm)
