I was in high school when a friend turned me onto JFA. He had a sarcastic sense of humor and found JFA’s “Beach Blanket Bongout” to be the most brilliant thing ever. The Valley of the Yakes EP had skatefish on skateboasrds all over it, so that was an instant turn on. Then there the [...] More >

FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE! THAT'S MY FUCKING HOCKEY STICK!

Well as I'm sure most of you know by now, Skateboarding's biggest meathead douchebag Mike Vallely is once again up to his old antics, as you can see him here in the flannel getting in a fight in the stands at a hockey game over a hockey stick. God Mike V. is such a fucking clown. Sure that hockey stick was meant for his daughter, and that other dude grabbed it, but it definitely didn't take Vallely long to smack the guy in the face with it and then punch the shit out of him. It must suck being that raged out all the time. Imagine being so pissed off all the time that you would get into a fistfight over a hockey stick. What a bummer. Not to mention the fact that he's beating the shit out of a guy in front of his daughter. How embarrasing. I wonder how his daughter and his wife feel when daddy gets into yet another brawl and starts punching people out? Well judging from his wife's heartfelt "I'm sorry." to Niedermayer at 0:22 in this video, I guess we have our answer. But I think in that last clip, the funniest part is not so much the fight, but the sports broadcaster's account of it. "Some BMXer comes up behind him, starts layin' into 'em!" So funny. The fact that he calls Vallely a BMXer must mean at some point someone must have told him that he was a skateboarder, but when it came time to record his commentary, his brain just registers BMXers and skateboarders as interchangeable. And the scorn in his voice when he says "BMXer" really shows his disdain for anyone who partakes in "action sports". Not to mention that Vallely totally didn't come up behind the guy at all. In any case, Vallely was arrested (though not charged) for the incident, and also the Mighty Ducks have severed all ties that they had with Vallely, which had him blogging for them, as well as I'm sure included those great seats right by the glass that Vallely and his family won't be sitting in anymore. So perhaps Vallely has learned a lesson from this? Or perhaps not because although he got the boot f More >

A nefarious character going by the name of “Crete Cult” sent in some shots of the new Kelso, Washington park being built by a non-name construction company. As for the review… Rides good…Good Tranny with no kinks Well, there you have it. Anyone else? I recall there was some to-do about the contractor, but the details escape [...] More >

Rick McCrank

Rick's got the whole package. He can go big on rails and stairs, get his tech on over pads and ledges, and hold a line in transition. Plus, he does it all with some of the smoothest style out there.

If you watched any of the episodes of The Beauty and The Beast series on Epicly Later'd, you know that Rick may skate transition oriented parks the best out of the everyone on the Girl team. It's either him, Alex Olson or Brian Anderson. It all depends on what you like to see. Not to mention, he is the most Canadian. Fellow, Canuck, Rick Howard, conceded and said, "McCrank's more Canadian" on last years Beauty And The Beast tour.

Rick's also a super mellow, nice guy, who doesn't "try" to be anything he's not. If he speaks pay attention because it is for sure something important. He also doesn't' drink and is a vegetarian.
