Wow. I can’t believe this one flew under my radar for so long, but it was released a mere year after Thrashin’. I’m not sure what this movie is about, but it’s got two Playboy Playmates and a skateboarding goon who meets a spectacular untimely demise. Is it because ...

We’ve featured the ramp handywork of Tim Kulas here a few times . His latest ongoing project is something called the Goat Ramp. It’s a sectional miniramp made from vacuum-formed laminates… I think. The sections are sturdy, but hollow and comparatively lightweight, so it ...

Some rich jerks in the Dominican Republic have an incredible house on the beach that also happens to be skateable. You and I can take comfort in the fact that there is a kink where the transition meets the flat, or maybe they were trying to recreate the “ka-chunk ka-chunk” ...
