YOUNG JEEZY

I'm sure everyone's seen the new issue of The Skateboard Mag, with Ryan Lay's sick cover photo. But have you seen Jeff's picture on the inside? Dare I say SICKER? Way to go Jeff! -Worful

BREAKING NEWS: BOBBY'S ON LUGZ FOOTWEAR

It's official, Bobby now rides for Lugz Footwear. You heard it here first. When he showed up at the blind school ledges today I thought he was wearing the classic D3. But no, it was something even chubbier. It was a pair of Lugz. And guess who the new Lugz Midwest rep is? You guessed it, Guy. Hope this doesn't make waves with his current boss. Meanwhile, Bobby Taylor, Jared, and Larry showed up and skated the ledges with us. They seemed unphased by Bobby's new sponsorship.

DON'T HURT YOURSELF

Don't Hurt Yourself from Dave Ackels on Vimeo.

Randy sent this to us this great clip. Check him out at the very end. Dang, so close!

WOW

First off, Bobby made a custom Pretty Zip Zinger. He's either a genius, or was really high at the time. You decide. But who knows, maybe we'll make one for real in the future? We'll see. The lighter board construction certainly seemed to help Bob get into this ollie up to back lip over the gap at the Steger benches though. Meanwhile, once again we found ourselves at an indoor garage and happened to run into some other fine folks, this time it was Kendal and his homies. He showed us this nice wallride and him and Bob went to work. -Worful

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!!

Happy birthday to Mr. Dave Thomas! We hope you're doing well up there in the windy city.

FROM THE ARCHIVES

For some reason this photo never saw the light of day. The swimsuit may be out of season but tweaked melons are always in style.

HAPPY THOUGHTS

Last night I just happened to drive by that garage near my apartment and see what looked like Joel and Argus in the middle of a nice session. It seemed very serendipitous, and I decided to surprise them and join in on the fun. Then Joel surprised himself by pulling a backside flip and a varial flip over the flat gap. Nice! Argus also popped a kickflip with his usual precision. Joel worried that this photo might look too menacing, but I think it's fine. -Worful

GOING BACK (SMITH) IN TIME

Here's a couple back smiths from Drew that never saw the light of day, one from the tennis courts and one from Spain. -Worful
