In a year of some major skate video releases. You know the ones Stay Gold, Hallelujah, Origins, etc. Videos years in the making with no shortage of hype, a street skateboarding legend and his loyal team had been quietly putting together a video of their. Several of the guys on the team had parts in the above mentioned video, but that didn't stop them from still getting clips for their fearless leader.

Last night, The Tempster, aka Ed Templeton, and his company Toy Machine premiered thier latest video release Brain Wash. I wasn't there because I'm taking a bit of a self induced break from the scene that along with skate video premiers, but the great folks over at Skateboarder Mag were. So, cruise over their and check out some photos of what went down.

There are some pretty good entries in the Real Street contest going on over on the X Games site, and Johnny Layton just entered his. To remind you, it's a contest for an X Games gold to see who can put together the best video section.

Here's Johnny's entry:

MJ was supposed to play Johnny Layton in the latest edition of the Battle at the Berrics, but Johnny hurt himself, so Chris Roberts and everyone else who happened to be at the park filled in. They called themselves the Legion of Doom and consisted of the likes of: Eric Koston, Jamie Thomas and Mikey Taylor to name a few. Check out MJ take out everyone, click here. Photo: MORINformed
