Whats the wurst that could happen?

Well you could put 7 sweaty men in a small room with windows that don’t really open, a toilet the size of a hamster cage, feed them meat and cake for 4 days and see if the smells produced can get you invaded by a foreign super power searching for chemical weapons.

Thats how we spent some of our time in Hamburg, along with watching the Peter Serofinowicz show and Grosso’s loveletters then practicing static backside boneless.

Oh yeah – we occasionally ventured out to skate some of the the rad shit over there. Killer trip. I’ll let the footage speak for most of it but lets just say as soon as we landed back home we were plotting how to get out there again.

And we met Lester Kasai. And we had to explain to 1 or 2 of the younger members of our group who he was. (“He invented the benihana? OMG!!!”). I took a few pics whilst winding down, there are others taken by Mystery Steve but he’s so mysterious you’ll probably never get to see them.

Boxes Of Death 4

This has been a great show the past three years and Boxes Of Death 4 looks to be just as fun!

Touring again this year starting in Seattle (June 15th) and moving to Portland (July 13th), San Francisco (August 9th), and Laguna (August 17th). If you are anywhere close to these cities you should make it out and see the tiny coffins.

Springtime!

Finally things are looking a lot like skate time! Not that every time isn’t skate time but around Seattle and the Pacific Northwest in general it can be pretty dark and wet and though this year we have a few more undercover options we still have a log of cool skateparks to enjoy. A good sunny skate day at Southpark!

We have had ourselves a pretty good time keeping up with what’s happening around the area. Marginal Way had some fund raisers lately which were pretty successful and we were able to donate 300 bucks so far from Poster sales which is pretty sweet.

We’ve got a couple skate pals who are down but not out with knee injuries and even a lacerated kidney. We wish speedy recoveries and we can’t wait to skate with them again.

We are also working on some new shirts, hoodies and other crap for your grubby little mitts to get your hands on at hopefully more places in the Seattle area and of course, as always, on line. Oh My Kidney!

So here’s to longer sunnier days of skating and some road trips to places we haven’t skated yet. We hope to see you out there working on expanding you bag of tricks, having a good time and keeping the bill collectors at the pain bank at bay.

Thanks for playing! Now go skate!!
