Porn and Skateboarding Merge
“Rich Marshall, who heads new business development at Kayo, said the deal will help both businesses move into new markets. We feel extreme sports and extreme sex go together extremely well.”
Kayo Corp gets the balls rolling in the porn industry with Adam & Eve. Pornography on Skateboard products will be introduced to all the heads at ASR.
Wonder where this idea came from?
Looks like we’re Livin’ It

Less-Than Creative Skateboards
“Preferred Skateboard Manufacturing, LLC announced today the launch by its Creative Skateboards division of a new website featuring a concept that could totally revolutionize the multi-billion dollar Skateboarding indu$try.”
You aren’t going to revolutionize anything except your dwindling bank account. Your novelty items are going to end up in a tornado of shipping returns if they don’t just pile up in your living room or bedroom floor. God help you if you already have a warehouse for all the crap you’re trying to peddle.
The revolution will not be Creative Skateboards… Nor will it be televised.

Skateboard P - Pharrell Williams
The Billionaire Boys Club is about to start raping and pillaging the Skateboard indu$try. Add Pharrell Williams and Snoop Dogg to the mix and it looks like the parties are just going to get better and better. The Indu$try is expanding… Diversify? Collaborate?
Looks like we’re about to see some of that old East-Coast / West-Coast gangsta shit come back into style.

Viceland on Extreme Marketing
Viceland has timelined the Extreme Marketing Phenomenon for recognizable cartoon characters used to market products.
The city of Philidelphia banned skateboarding from Love Park. This year there is going to be a Nightmares X-Treme Scream Park during the month of October (we’re guessing for halloween)… But the funny part is that the director/producer is trying to capitalize on the Love Park thing. They even went as far as contacting the Skateboard Advocacy Network and asking them to “hook them up with some skaters”. So yeah we get used and it takes some time to notice it.

Can You Feel It?
Mr. Schoenfeld… Your pussy is showing! “As skateboarding market continues to lag, footwear maker looks to create new niches.” South America is a rough market isn’t it? Cheers to Argentina and Brazil for making their own “Indu$try”. Schoenfeld attributes Vans problems to being underinventoried. Looks like there’s a few job openings.
