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.

If You Can’t Skate, Make Money From It
“Brian Pappas learned his lesson about skateboarding: He tried it once, fell off and didn’t get back on the board again.” Instead he built a franchise and called it Paradise found. Would you like fries with your skating?

Are We Having Fun Yet?
Not so long ago we posted Chris Gentry Toys (you know, Flowflap shit) and we found it odd that there were actually people supporting this lost cause. This friday we posted the letter from Flowflap and again we witnessed odd reactions. We then decided to track and see where those reactions came from. And, lo and behold, they all came from the same person! Someone in the San Diego area is a harsh Flowflap fan. How do we know all this? Hold down your mouse over a suckers name for a sec, and do your own tracing.
Why dont you ban the ip range? Ofcourse we could have done that, but then we be missing out on all the childish fun! We ONLY ban comments from fruitbooters since this site is not meant for fruits. Flowflappers are more then welcome!

Jackass Italian Swimboarder
I am pretty sure that Swimboarding will take to the streets of The United States as soon as everyone forgets about Jackass. Well, you’re right. I guess it won’t.
