No strings needed with these Santa Cruz Skateboards Marionette Series. No need to manipulate strings when you could manipulate a skateboard with your feet. Bang! Everybody happy.

Headed north last week to Sacramento. The Golden Bear of Cal Expo awaited me. This bear kicks some major ass.

If you didn’t already know, Heckler Magazine is back up and rolling. Thanks JP for all the new gear.

&work is a new work wear brand out of San Francisco. Good stuff.

Javier Coupe from Boards N Motion with the new Burton skateboard, err, I mean, new Burton snowboard. Sick graphic.

It was getting pretty nipply over at the volcom booth.

I guess it’s better than having ass crack in your face at the vans booth.

It was tent city over at the nhs booth.

That’s a brown bear face mask and oven mitt to boot.

Corey Smith dressed his girlfriend up in black metal and it’s got to be the coolest capita board of 12/13 season and one of the best graphics of the year. Makes your eyes bleed and your penis hard.

One of Halldor Helgason’s Lobster snowboards. This is a rad board not too be missed.

Some of the Rome line-up for 12/13 season. That’s their splitboard second from the left.

Don’t pass up an opportunity to skate the granite skatepark when you are in Sacto.

Live from camp smokey where the fire danger is extreme. Over and out.

brooke’s spirit animal.

by

Brooke’s spirit animal is definitely not a wolf. He hasn’t taken any peyote and watched the sunrise yet, either. His spirit animal is probably a flounder. He’s a pisces. So he has to be some sort of fish he imagines. Rad dude keeps getting radder. He’s gonna be a rad dad this springtime too, so world watch it out. Brooke can most likely be found at: NHS, Derby (sunday afternoon’s only) and occasionally he can be spotted at Malone’s in Scotts Valley. Carry on, friends.

The NHS sales troops made there way to Santa Cruz last week.

You wish your graphic mob grip tape job looked as good as this.

Insane Krux Posse was up in the house. Holla at your downlows.

Jellis likes magnums.

Jason Jessee is good with a weapon, too.

Smiles for days. Been a great year here at NHS. Hope it’s been a great year wherever you are. 2012 is almost here. Let’s make some magic happen, again. And again. And again.

Here is the video wrap-up from our Colorado rep, Chainsaw Charles Masque.
