suspended motion

Jack and I are both honoured to be in involved with Suspended Motion, an exhibit appearing at the Bakery in October. "Seven artists, with a team of skateboarding creatives and builders, will take over the Bakery to create sculptural installations, video and images where skateboarding will be used as a creative medium. Wheels will become the mark-making device that produces a static representation of the physical performance of skateboarding." More here, and we will keep you posted as suspended motion moves forward.

margo shredding

You would have to have been born a few galaxies away to not know about the skills of our own Mr Brett Margaritis. Peep this Think clip from 2002. Bare in mind Brett never went out to film consciously, if he got footage it was because someone nearby had a camera. If this was his bro-cam footage from a few days, u can imagine what he laid on the day to day. To this very day one of the best rides I've seen. Without Brett WA skateboarding would still be in the dark ages.

Off Flat Stanley

A final post for the year, featuring what may well be one of the finest photos of all time. What we have here is a magical fusion of steeze. It represents a union between two of the most stylish Australian skaters of all time. In 1999 Andrew Currie snapped this B&W uphill frontside k-grind of Kye Stanley’s in downtown Sydney. It was published in a Slam “Avant Garde” gallery late last century. Kye had no doubt just had another all-nighter with Davo. Perfect poise, great shapes, huge snaps and all white outfit whilst rocking some clogs of yesteryear. Yew! Happy Yew Near from Staple!

Everyones favorite member of the Weasel family, the Badger (Harry Clark) is probably one of my favorite skaters...

Stage two: proof sign-off

Next step in the mix is getting the proof back from the printers. Its pretty great seeing the thing that has been living within a computer screen for months physically printed. By this stage typos, alignment and design issues should have been ironed out. The physical proof is mainly to combat colour shifts that happen when moving from computer screen to paper and artwork setup problems. Also, when seeing the mag spread out like this sometimes you see issues with the flow of the mag and how some spreads look together resulting in the need to reshuffle images and text. Below is an image of the issue 1 proof sheet. Staple 3 has been signed off and is whirring around a printing factory out in the suburbs of Melbourne, more photos from its journey coming soon.

Port Heds Up

Two months ago I went to Port Hedland to judge a comp, do some demos and workshops with Harry Clark. He was absolutely killing it despite the ludicrous temperatures. As you will see their two skateparks are ludicrously good. Thanks to everyone in Port Hedland council who made this happen. I made a little ghetto cam clip from our adventures.

Kid Zoom

Don’t you just get a warm fuzzy feeling from seeing a homie getting recognition for doing what they love? Well Kid Zooms artwork is the opposite of that warm fuzzy feeling but I still love it. Creating twisted realities that look uncomfortably real is all too easy for this Kid. Check his site out here.
