You Know What Really Grinds My Gears?

For this issue of 'You Know What Really Grinds My Gears', kev and myself are taking a metaphorical stand (actually sitting down drinking a few pints of black!) against all those un-imaginative people that say the likes of the following: "the dog's bollox", "the cat's pajamas", and "the bee's knees"!

I mean come on, just come up with your own slogans...they'll be alot funnier, and we promise you'll be cooler than half a tub of solero shots in your girlfriend's eye!!

But it wouldn't be enough for us to just give out about theses peeps...so we're providing our own alternative slogans:

1. "the dog's rod"
2. "the cat's flaps"
3. "the bee's dick" (our own personal favourite)

So go out, create, and stay tuned for more 'You Know What Really Grinds My Gears'!

Baby Baby Baby OOOOOOHHHHHH!!!

Holy shit, I only ever knew Justin Bieber for his rad music but thanks to the ever reliable news feed that are the slap forums and the strange obsession pro skaters have with twitter I just found out that he skates too!!!



I knew he had street cred before, you know hanging out with niggas like Ludacris and Usher but this adds a whole new level of credibility. Now hes out ripping with the most legit people going, Lutzka, Drydek and TK! You don't get much better than that...

I can't wait to see a music collabo between him and J-Rog...

If somebody out there can source one of these for me I'm willing to pay bigtime...

Hey Cormac!!!

Hey Cormac!!! We found you a friend...

***** Say Hellloooo To Cormac *****

Right....

....this is my first post, and so I thought it would be fitting to break the my solid-block of blog ice with something nice and attractive!

Recently Kev and myself had to venture over to Galway for a party(CP's is fucking amazing by the way!!!) and so we brought along some skate mags to keep us occupied.
Whilst flicking through the many pages of rippers, we suddenly stumbled upon our BIG BREAK! "we could be graffic designers"...

...and Cormac was born!!


If any of the personnel over at Santa Cruz are interested in our design myself and Kev will be more than happy to strike up a deal!

P.S. go ahead and click on the image to enlarge, then zoom in to really get a feel for the design
