Black Mike did this transfer. While it may not be the biggest it is probably the scariest. The rails are fast as hell and short. This has been looked at many a times and has been done by the one and only Black Mike Lashore. This is guaranteed by AMALL to look great hanging on your wall and with a price of only $2.00 you’d be a fool not to.
Get the poster and all of it’s glory right here.

Here’s a great picture of Erik Bailey, unfortunately the photographer didn’t have the lens on right, or the lighting was off or whatever, he F’d up in the darkroom, or maybe the dude at 1 Hour EZ F0t0 dribbled some Krispy Kreme juice into the developer machine - anyways - he pretty much missed EB. Thank god for the wonders of modern technology because we spent hours here at AMALL restoring and sharpening up this photo so you can get a better look into the life of one of our great sports daring and darling superstars, Erik Bailey.

Blade Comdey Jam contest 2008. Photos and story by Juicy H.
Like the title states, the year is 2008, and the contest is in Northern California. Blade Comedy Jam’s are usually filled with nothing but the opposite, which is rollerblading and that should be never be taken as a joke. I mean some of the tricks are funny, but this is serious business but “Tommy Boy” AKA “Tommy Boy” seems to think that it is some sort of monkey business. Let me start out by giving you a little history behind the “el bladeo comedyo jamo.” Starting about 2 years ago Mr.Boy started throwing street contests in San Fransisco and various surrounding towns that had little in common with organization, which in rollerblading… isn’t all that bad. At the very least all the homeys got together and skated major numbers deep at some high profile street spots. As the day went on the contest would usually dwindle at about spot #3. A Product toss would usually ensue, which would inevitably cause a frenzy amongst the kids and like a ninja using his smoke screen (You know when they throw the smoke bomb on the ground and it goes “POOooooFFFF!”) Tommy Boy could barely be seen in the background ducking into is H2 stretch limo (one time it was a helicopter) and scooting away with yet another contest under his belt…. Well this time it was different, very different indeed. Instead of being an illegal unorganized street contest, it was an illegal unorganized skate park contest… and this was bold…so bold that the inevitable was INEVITABLE!!!!!!! READ ON FOR MORE! (more…)
More user submissions, ACE SANDERS SKATE TEAM COMING SOON!!

Wussup, AMROLL?

A MF’N GAP up in this PIEESE!
Yeah so Julio and Brandon Smith came by Amall Wednesday to drop some product off and skate the box. I got put in charge of taking pictures (I’ve never uses a camera before) and Justin hands be this $2000 water cooled, chess championship fucking brick ass camera that was extremely ’sensitive’ to light, lol. So most of the flicks look like we just got nuked by N. Korea, and if the flick did look okay it was poorly timed etc.. But here is the result of being an idiot. Ennnnjjoy. Justin was furious too, lol.
MORE AFTER THE JUMP!
I made all you Cult fans out there a wallpaper for the custom Cult that is currently sitting atop the Aggressivemall home page…

If you are wondering about the dye job, we can do them too.
800×600 (super pin!)
Enjoy, let me know what you think. Anything…
To start off this picture post I’ll do a little explainin’ first. SDSF Open was to be held the weekend of Oct 6th-7th in Sunny Escondido California. Razors was also having a premire for their new video “ICONS” by Adam Johnson on the 5th. So I decided to take off Friday, most of Thursday to enjoy the weekend. Arrangements were made to caravan and stay with Mr. Jon Julio, Brandon Smith, Jose Fuentes, Adam Roberts, and Victor Arias. We packed our skates (Ivan Narez, Jimmy Hake(who was around for the week) & myself Justin Hertel) and we woke up Thursday morning and began making our way down south. Here are a couple pics. from the drive there and back and a couple odds and ends along with contest photos.

A couple hundred miles into a few hundred something mile drive.

Infamous shades.

Infamous desert. Definitely not a place you want to break down.

Infamous shades match the infamous “busted” tee shirt.

Nothing but semi trucks and desert for days. We even saw Optumus Prime.

Me and Ivan. Ivan stayed on his phone for most of the trip. Jimmy Hake is passed the hell out in the back.

Making our way into L.A. where pretty much everything is tagged up.

Definitely in L.A. now…

Downtown L.A… Reminds me of Terminator

Trains and tagging go together like peanut butter and jelly.
Big time gap here. This was Friday night. After skating the Esco park nearly all day.

This was after watching the Razors video for the 2nd time.Ivan died of lung cancer shortly there after (as seen in this photo)

“Wanna buy a Black Berry?” (Victor Arias)

Brandon Smith is dead serious about his burrito.

“Pancakes in my mother F***ing room!” (Murda)

We put a ton of tinfoil in the microwave.

Someone get this guy off of Myspace. (Victor Arias)
Contest day. Razors presents the SDSF Open where the winner will take home 7grand.( click on photo’s for larger view.)

Brad Magnuson - True top soul down the big ledge.

Fabio - 540 Alleyoop soyale attempt. This kid from Brazil has 540’s to everything. Keep an eye out for him in the future. He blew everyone away with tricks like 540 tta, 540 true fish and more.

Brian Aragon - Alleyoop fish to something or another.

Billy O’Neill - Gots the ill true fish on lock.

Franky Morales - Skating with a bruised heel and still manages to get this ill fishbrain with a grab on the big down ledge.

Chris Haffey - Most people couldn’t even get enough speed to clear this box, then Haffey comes along and hurricane top souls it first try.

Chris Haffey - He lined this one up and had the whole park of spectators and skaters run over to watch this. It was amazing. Wedge ramp over the gap and wall to the mini ramp coping to soul drop soul (peep the edit.)
That does it for my comp. pics. Camera actually died on the last photo. I’m lucky I even got that far.

The following pictures are from the ride home where Victor after having his burrito smashed acted like an infant and messed with me the whole 7+ hours.

Me - pre-attack. Watching a Ivan’s video iPod. I need to get myself one of these!

Snake lurking in the backseat. Getting ready for an attack.

Me - midst attack I had this box shoved in my face for a long time.

Gots me a fresh “busted” tee!

Sniped shopping for candies.

Kill this man.
