The short film “Cannonball” artfully follows a group of skaters in search of newly empty pools behind foreclosed homes in and around the arid sprawl of Fresno other inland California suburbs that have been blighted by the housing collapse and ensuing recession. It has some NSFW language, but it’s undeniably powerful—and a poignant meditation on greed, materialism, and an enduring kind of joy.

It’s bad enough when you slam to the pavement while trying to land a trick, but getting cracked up side your head by your board as an exclamation point to your fall is a sign that maybe you should be doing something else with your free time. Oh, and there’s no moaning in skateboarding.

A new YouTube video shows Bieber skateboarding with Rob Dyrdek and landing a 180 ollie. Justin Bieber visited the Street League Training Facility which is owned by Rob Dyrdek and managed to do a pretty weak 180 ollie of Greg Lutzka, Terry Kennedy and Rob Dyrdek.

Skitching is the act of hitching a ride by holding on to a motor vehicle while riding on a skateboard. The skitched vehicle can either be aware of their load or unaware. Michael J.

I am not sure but I think Chris offered us some Ice Cream after he landed it the first time. Why sure Chris I would love some Ice Cream how bout a Strawberry Shortcake Bar or something like that?

Anyway its some kind of Bigger Spin Heelflip. You can use this combination of tricks to decide for yourself and feel free to leave what you want to call it in the comments below. Bigspin is 360 with 180 body varial. Bigger spin or 540 big spin is? 540 with 180 body varial. Gazelle spin is 540 with 360 body varial.
