AG + RS + VE + ML

I figured this bail was fitting, Since it’s the NBA finals and all. He made the 360 dunk, but then sacked out on a gym pad. I guess no shame - no gain and no better place to embarrass yourself than in front of 10,000 + screaming / laughing at you fans/haters.

But on a serious note - WHO IS THIS DUDE? There has to be a real rollerblader out there doing this mascot job, you sneaky SOB you…

HOW TO: BREAK YOUR LEG

Juicy Hamburger is out of town so KG and I are filling in this week… this is a circa 2003 clip but I don’t think we’ve posted it yet on the blog…

I’ve always wondered why outdoor skateparks cap all of the surrounding stuff like the outside of the ledges near the fence etc… but indoor skateparks always seem to have a nice big uncapped steep rail for everyone to attempt. The one at Aggressivemall is wood and has a 4×4 post sticking up a couple inches, half way down the railing…. so no takers yet.

Juicy will be back next week in full effect!

This is the best rail I have ever seen. It has so many good things going for it. Steep as hell, long, rusty AND capped. Who wouldn’t want to skate it? Oh that’s right, anyone in their right mind. Well I do have to give him props, he souled it fairly clean.

The infamous Cameron Card bail. Cameron got REALLY, REALLY hurt as a result of this fall. I believe that he fractured his skull and was an induced coma for some time. He’s OK now though, but a reminder to all, be careful skating is dangerous/deadly. If you can - wear a helmet.

Hell YES. We made it! I’ve done so many bails that I’m just going to post a compilation for the party celebration of 100 bails because I’m just too busy celebrating. If you want to celebrate with me I’ll be at UC chicken tonight.

99 weeks of pure rollerblading punishment? How about that?!?! I may even quit when I get to a 100… ANYHOO This one isn’t particularly bad but man, this dude lacks all sorts of control and it’s funny, well at least I thought it was.

Could have been worse…

All I have to say is DAMN.

When you are doing a kink rail and can’t get down it fast enough, it helps to just tumble down the 2nd set of stairs.

Two bails in 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)

I know my bail for this week is quite late. Fact of the matter is I forgot… Chris Haffey was here and MAN, I was so star struck I couldn’t function mentally (OR physically) If you don’t believe me I invite you to come by touch/ smell my sopping wet desk chair and the UndEEz I had to throw in the trash can. But enough about ME, onto the first ever (I think) street gainer on blades. I bet if the set was a little bigger he would have made it. Props nevertheless and a perfect bail to come in late with.

I stumbled across this today somehow and knew I had found my bail for the week… I know that the cell phone camera is terrible, but all you need for this one is the audio. You ever heard of a blood curdling scream? Or some one screaming bloody murder? No? Well, this is what that sounds like.

I think the drop rail fad has faded a bit, and here is one reason why…

I guess this is what happens when you try to spin off of the middle of a rail.
