California Screamin'
Sat, May 17, 11:51 AM
Clem and I are in the capital of American paranoia, over-regulation, and harsh uptighness known as California. We are here to watch that one contest they have every year in the pool with no water in it. Watch for photos later if we actually get in. We have been
hitting up some parks and of course
going tourist style.

Shock Jocks
Thu, May 15, 11:51 AM
Here's an mp3 sound clip of local radio DJ, Bubba the Love Sponge, discussing SPoT. They have a Mexican skateboarding midget with mangled legs that can''t speak English and want to use our ramps to showcase this circus act.

Wham, Bam, Thank You Am
Thu, May 15, 11:16 AM
It sure sucks saying no to people trying to get into the Damn Am, especially since many of them are my friends. We're not the only ones doing things in amateur skateboarding, although I do think we have the highest standards. Check out Colin Bane's recap of current am contests.

No Cropdusters Please
Wed, May 14, 9:36 AM
Every skateboard shindig always has a few dudes who do the cool guy walk up like, "Yo, I'm here to rip, put me in the contest!" Apparently that's not going to work for the Game of SKATE that eS is doing here at the Park on June 5. You are required to sign up ahead of time online.

Who dat?
Tue, May 13, 11:01 AM
There were a few people without sponsors that made the cut into Damn Am at Minneapolis with ripping video footage. Check out James Cooke - switch flip crook in a line, good 360 flip, switch front blunts in a line, backside shifty flips, etc. Looking forward to seeing that dude in Minneapolis. Unfortunately, there are no more spots available for that Contest, but if you have comparable footage, I'll check it out and see if we can get you in another event. Send the link to Rob@DamnAm.com.

That One Fetish People Have...
Mon, May 12, 3:09 PM
On Wednesday, we are getting some more of those things you put on your feet that make certain people wait in line at the butt crack of dawn. This time, our friends and employees are not permitted to make a purchase until all the people who lined up outside have made it inside to get what they want. Good luck and thanks for camping out with us.
Red Bull Sarah, can you bring us a case of The Bull for these guys?

That's Not Coffee
Mon, May 12, 1:30 PM
I use my board as transportation quite a bit, but I have refused to get a cruiser board up until now because I feel it's some kind of acknowledgement to getting older. Thanks to Chris Peck from Forest Skateboards, I have one dropped in my lap. He's making the SPoTlight crew
a cruizer deck. Thanks Peck!

Damn Am Minneapolis: June 6 - 8
Wed, May 07, 9:50 AM
The last email from Schaefer about Damn Am at Minneapolis was "They're $200 each, but I will be getting strippers to do the trophies and dunk tank. Hope you guys don't mind." I don't think anyone minds. See you there and if you want your promo in the prize packs and product toss, send it to:
3rd Lair
ATTN: Damn Am

Video Overdose

All of you that are sending me video footage to get into upcoming Damn Am Contests might be interested in this. Woodward is doing a contest to give two weeks away, one for a skater and one for a filmer.
