Vintage Skate Video

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008 by MC

Sauce, Stick, SarDean, Steve Harring, maybe Dickie Vocals and more skating Monmouth County some time in the early 80’s. These guys are as punk as they come.

From Olliegrind. Killer NJ Skate footage.

Bonus Underdog video… (more…)

For the inner (skate) hippie in us all

Look. I know Squid Force is a site dedicated to all things water-related, but every once in a while you come across something that absolutely demands you stand up and take notice of something far beyond anything else in its genre. This is one of those instances.

The first time I saw this clip of Death Skateboard’s Richie Jackson, I didn’t know how to handle it, exactly. Make no mistake, I’m as far from a skateboarding connoisseur as a middle-aged sponger with a jacked shoulder and bum knee can be, but there was something about watching him take amazingly creative lines and doing things I didn’t even think were possible on/over/through obstacles that even the best skaters would look at and not even think twice about that grabbed me and insisted that I share it with all of you. I give you Richie Jackson from the new vid, “And Now“:

He may not be the best skateboarder in the world, but you gotta admit, the man has style to burn…

Christopher Michael Delaney

I think he’s in Sweeden for a 1950’s convention. Maybe Belize? Maybe Asbury Lanes? Nicaragua or Miami? Under a bridge or on a jetty tip?

Delaney would rather be underwater than anywhere else, and he’s one hell of a spearo and our house tattoo artist. Therefore, he has earned the right to be the first “Unsung Hero”.
