Day Of Familia 5
Fingers crossed that the power does not go out and that Gaia gives us a beautiful day; Familia is not technically turning five but having a belated birthday party that we all should attend.
The line up looks good if it holds, and shit, I haven't been to Oakdale all year, even after calling it "best park in the cities" some year(s) back. After that we can go see if we can force Red Stag to discontinue yet another event at their venue. And then there's Damn Am too! Hot darn. Even though its been said for a couple of years now, this could be the last year they do the Damn Am here, so show up. I'll remind you guys again.

platinumseagulls #527: enigmatic
Years ago there were ongoing talks about some sort of "Platinum Dunk," but as hopes faded we settled for a proper-ass wheel (though time and yellowing and skateboarding mean that I don't have any Plat wheels as keepsakes). It seems that Sissi never gave up on a blog shoe, and that quest has resulted in the (much more?) well deserved Chrome Ball Dunk. Keep up the good work Chops.
Month two of the Hesh Dot Com Death Watch has begun. Have the rigors of skateboard blogging caught up with the guys we used to lovingly refer to as Plat Jr., or do they simply need to be publicly called out? And what happened to BTO?
Everything you need to know about The High Five, via Todd, and then via Steve.
It was suggested that I should mention Element's Trio, albeit weeks late. Stanton came back from the dead and the plan b dustbin of history, while I was most excited by Levi Brown's incredibly casual pushing donkey punch shuv-it. In other 50-50 to backside 360 news, Mark Wetzel will always be an unsung hero.
At least somebody is filming for Shitheads 2010.
