Gray: Got My Vans On...

So first semester I was stupid when it came to kicks. Rockin' my J's to parties, then being too wasted to do anything about the scuffs when I stumble back into my room. Jordans rarely make an appearance anymore anyway, since I skate to class, and I sure as hell am not skating in Jordans... and when I am not in class its either studying or partying, so you get the picture. The first time I was out in LA with David, he told me to look out for the Vans fetish this city has, and since I have been living out there, the truth behind David's words only became more apparent. Vans are cheap, comfortable, and they are fresh. I never ended up getting a pair out there, but i found a couple pair under my tree this year. I feel a collection about to begin...

David: Skateistan - To Live and Skate Kabul

I was just introduced to this video today and after watching it I am speechless. The work done in this video and the project they put together over seas is amazing. "Skateistan: To Live And Skate Kabul" is a beautifully shot film that follows the lives of a group of young skateboarders in Afghanistan. Operating against the backdrop of war and bleak prospects, the Skateistan charity project is the world’s first co-educational skateboarding school, where a team of international volunteers work with girls and boys between the ages of 5 and 17, an age group largely untouched by other aid programmes. Check out this amazing film below:

David: Coca-Cola “Burn Ignite” With Steve Berra (Video)

I'd like to start off by saying this looks epic! Steve Berra (The Berrics) joins Mexican skaters Jesus Gonzalez, Eder Martinez, Mario Saenz, Angel Santiago and American Luis Tolentino for this Burn Ignite film, shot on location in Mexico City.

This film was created alongside two short-form documentaries, one featuring Jess Kimura and the all girl hardcore snowboarding film collective Peep Show, the other is a portrait that celebrates the electric lyrics and gritty beat artistry of rapper/poet Julius Wright, aka Lyrical God. All are part of a new campaign from Coca-Cola’s Burn energy drink. Further information available here.

Gray: BATTLE AT THE BERRICS 3

Back at it is Back at the Berrics. For those who aren't with it, Battle at the Berrics is a contest The Berrics (Steve Berra and Eric Koston) put on (for now the 3rd time) where there is a 32 skater bracket, and a lot of games of S.K.A.T.E. Kids go onto The Berrics and make their bracket and submit them like they'd do for March Madness. Each game of skate is filmed and uploaded to their youtube, and kids watch to see who moves on to the next round. These videos are viewed a lot!! Some up t 200,000+ times. Check their videos at their private skatepark in LA. Only people who know Steve Berra and Eric Koston can really go there and skate, although their cell phone #s have leaked a bit.. we met some kids with it. Anyway, go make a bracket here and watch some of these berrics videos below.

Gray: WATCH OUT! Chris Colbourn

If you know anything about the Burlington skateboard scene, you have heard of Chris Colbourn, or as some people know him, Cookie. To be honest I can't really remember how we met, but it was somehow through me filming, and him skating. I've filmed with Chris a bit in the past year, and from that we've put together a few cool edits. Such an easy person to film: no bitching, real mellow, throws down bangers, and is always down to burn trees. The real dude who gets most of the skateboarding that happens around the Burlington area on film is Danny Hopkins (youtube). Cookie is featured in a ton of Danny's videos, as well as his film "This Year". Keep an eye out for this kid, he kills it everyday, AND hes livin' on the east. Just wait til he hits the no-rain west coast...
