    Description:Jereme Rogers is a professional skateboarder.This title did not just fall into his hands, however. Jereme is the kind of guy that goes out and gets things, not waiting for a miracle to happen and change everything in an instant.Moving to California at fifteen and leaving school to pursue a skateboarding career is a bold move. Many make this trek to a professional career but only a couple ended up where Jereme is now: on top.In 2005, he was named Rookie of the Year by Transworld Magazine. He was featured in one of Tony Hawk's video games as well.Jereme has always mixed it up, and he is never afraid to mix it up in public. He once skated a handrail naked in Thrasher Magazine's King of the Road in 2004.Jereme has a host of tattoos and bling and is a homosexual vegetarian (no, that is not a cruel joke or something). With this lifestyle he is still, however, a devout Christian and isn't afraid to openly speak about his faith in God (one of his tattoos reading "In God I Trust").He has a myriad of contest results, pretty much all podium finishes, to back up his skating and you can not deny his pure talent. *UPDATE* June 2009 Jereme Rogers no longer rides for Famous stars and straps.
  • The Rappin' Fungi Retires From Skateboarding

    Jereme Rogers has announced he will officially retire from professional skateboarding. It has been a strange few weeks for the Boston native, which came to a peak two weeks ago when he was arrested on his rooftop in LA, preaching naked and high on mushrooms.

    Then, yesterday it was announced that he has been dropped from his clothing sponsor Famous Stars and Straps. "We run a true skateboarding program at Famous, we are always on tour filming for our video, doing demos, competing etc. We support our riders' ambitions, but skateboarding needs to always comes first. Good luck J," said Famous team manager, Felix Arguelles.

    It appears that Arguelles was hinting at the fact that Roger's hip hop ambitions have been affecting his skateboarding focus, not to mention have been the butt of jokes in the industry. Rogers has also been talking about God, Jesus and his spirituality a lot lately.

    Where from here for Jereme Rogers? Well, it's obvious. He's going to be a naked, rapping, skateboarding preacher that speaks in tongues, kind of like a shaman. He'll eat his fill of mushrooms, start preaching through his rap, while skating naked around his followers. Then, when the mushrooms really start to kick in he'll finish with a good ol' fashion freak out in tongue, like those guys from the church that Borat went to.

    Here's a flyer for last night's party:

  • JR Is A Fungi

    Apparently, Jereme Rogers ate mushrooms the other night, got naked and preached to the world on the top of his building, or what I call a Sunday night. Eric Koston tipped me off to this on Twitter, he said he laughed so hard he's still "wiping the tears out of his eyes." Here's the story:

    As reported on the daileybreeze.com:

    Professional skateboarder Jereme Rogers said Wednesday he was sorry for disturbing his Redondo Beach neighbors this week when he "ate some `mushrooms' and bugged out," preaching naked on his rooftop.

    Rogers, a high school dropout who attributes his skateboarding skills to God, was eventually grabbed by police officers and brought down from his precarious perch.

    "It obviously was not an everyday experience," the 24-year-old athlete said. "It was a very out-of-body experience. I've never had an experience like that."

    Rogers pulled off his boxer shorts about 6:40 a.m. Monday and climbed onto the roof of the two-story house he shares with roommates on Havemeyer Lane and Goodman Avenue.

    "It was obviously something I shouldn't have done," Rogers said as he rolled a marijuana joint in his bedroom. "It was just something that happened."

    Redondo Beach police Lt. Jim Acquarelli climbed about 20 to 30 feet to the roof, where he found Rogers yelling and screaming. Acquarelli said Rogers' roommates told him that he had ingested the hallucinogenic drug.

    Rogers ran back and forth around the roof's perimeter, sitting down at the edge with his back to the street.

    "He would have fragmented, interrupted conversations with people that weren't there," Acquarelli said.

    Rogers never tried to jump or talked of suicide, but he came very close to falling.

    "He never lost his balance," the lieutenant said.
