Skateboarding Hall of Fame 2009
Yea I went to this event last weekend. Todd Huber from Skatelab and his Skateboard Muesum along with IASC put on this first time event to induct four epic skateboarders into the newly formed Skateboarding Hall of Fame. Our sister company that makes Foundations American made decks, Watson Laminates, made four hand made completes with custom hand done graphics.
The inductees are Bruce Logan, Tony Alva, Tony Hawk and Danny Way. It was held at the Vans in Orange.
Wahoo! See more here http://watsonlaminates.blogspot.com/

Tony Alva and Slicky with the custome Watson WL630 award deck.

Skate Shoe Designer Sinisa Egelja Dies
I know this is not funny or punk or that you may care or not. You probably don't know who this was. I guess the important thing is that Sin was a skateboarder. A brother. And he has fallen. Sin was a old friend that I met at Del Mar Skate Ranch in the 80's. He was a crazy skateboarder and did these huge eggplants. He was funny and constantly made us all laugh. He was a creative mindand force.
I didn't see Sin much over the years but when I did it was always a fun reunion.
Read more here.
Condolences and best wishes from myself and everyone at Tum Yeto to his family and friends.
Cherish your life and the people around you.

FOG? Whalecock? WTF?
Is this Dave Carnie? Former Foundation team rider circa early 90's. Big Brother and Jackass instigator. Writer extrondinaire. And curator of the of the Food on Drunk blog. What is he doing at Watson Laminates USA HQ? What is he doing with Swank and Barker. Is there a possible Whalecock/Foundation collab for fat old guys? Probably not at this rate buy maybe. We'll see. Or not.
Swank, Carnie and Barker....FOG???
