Just got this video today of a locking jam we did in Vegas at some club. I’m going back in August, because 40 deg. C wasn’t hot enough for me last year. I’m looking forward to seeing how much everyone has improved since then.
And yes, that’s Scooby Doo gettin down in the white suit. I wish I could pull off steez like that.
Back in town, trying to refind my funk. Locking Camp in Vegas is on in August, gotta be on point. Looking forward to really dancing again, it’s been too long!
I love how:
This would be my dream dance project. I know Movement Lifestyle, Choreo Cookies etc. have put together similar videos in the past, but I just love the energy and the way this whole thing flows. My new project: 50 of my closest dancer friends doing “the step touch” to a medley of Bieber songs, interspersed with “running man” solos.
It’s a weird time in the skateboard industry. Skating became accepted into mainstream about, say, 10-15 years ago and during that time big shoe companies have been struggling to get a piece. Adidas, Reebok (or RBK), Converse, and Nike (on at least three separate attempts) tried to get in but couldn’t convince skaters that they were anything more than blatant cash grabs. A few years ago Nike finally managed to sink its teeth firmly into the industry by getting P-Rod on their team, and since then the number of good skaters riding for them has been getting bigger and bigger.
Even within ‘legit’ skate shoe companies, a few like DC have become giants. Between these giants within and without the skate community, a number of amazing skaters have left some of my favourite shoe companies for the big contracts: Just in the last year, Mike Mo joined DC, Sean Malto joined Nike, and Lucas Puig, my worldwide favourite skater, signed on to Adidas.
While I’m sad that these guys have left their own teams, they wouldn’t have put out clips advertising the shoe changes, and then I would never would have heard this song. So… let’s call it a draw, maybe?

I’ve been away from computers and I want to do this last week right, so excuse the delay. While I was in LA I did this little project (see the link) to learn as many languages as possible. I lost about half of the phrases, but still a great ice breaker in multi-cultural settings. Memorable, at least.
