I’m about to blow it with this blog too.

WillJ — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 18:52:53 +0000

There was a brief moment in time where I tried doing a blog focussed around skateboarding in the 519 area but alas, lazy contributors make for shitty content. Fast forward to 2012, Pancer saw through my laziness and decided to give me the keys to the SOTI blog. Lucky for you suckers I’ll actually be updating this blog with photo content and by the sounds of it, we’ve got some *motivated local shredders ready to lay the hurt down on 2012. Take a gander below for some 2011 action from some of your buddies.
Tamas Katona, nollie flip from top-to-bottom.

There was a huge posse here this night so you may have been lucky enough to see
Jesse Brown put this hardflip down in person.

Mackenzie ‘dat flick‘ Campbell. Backside flip.

Ben Buchenauer taking the unconventional route into a ditch.

And the grand finale to my first post on SOTI. I didn’t shoot this photo
nor do I have any idea why it’s on my computer but it ain’t hard to tell that
Pancer is KILLING IT in this photo.

* Take comments with a grain of salt. Skateboarders are known for being lazy. Marijuana is a known catalyst of this issue.

Redstar-Demo

Redstar Skateboards did a demo today in Waterloo at one of the worst parks in Ontario, however, they still made the most of the slick plastic benches that the city somehow paid $30 000+ on putting together on some ashpalt. This is Paul Trep and Grant Patterson and Chad Dickson, shout out to Opeyc for putting this together.

If you missed the demo in Waterloo you can check the team out this weekend:

July 31 – The Board Shop, London

August 3 – Ward Skate Park, Guelph

August 7 – Wake Stock

HUGE INDUSTRY NEWS

SOTI — Sat, 12 Jun 2010 01:41:40 +0000

Etnies and DC have formed the ultimate shoe company. The conglomerate will no doubt be poising themselves to take over the massive European snowboard shorts market soon.

Chinese markets are the best.

It’s going down, I’ll be talking smack on the mic and calling out any heel/toe drags with great vengeance and furious anger. WINNER GETS STUFF!

Ocean Shralping

SOTI — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 14:52:39 +0000

So I’m going on a surf trip to Costa Rica to partake in some ocean shralping for a month or so, and it turns out that there is a sick snake run right around the area I’m staying at first! Looks pretty classy. I’m sure there’s no doubt some rippers that reside in the surfer/hippy/gay (yes, it’s kind of gay) zone of Tamarindo. Footage coming soon….make sure you check back, I have some clips of Josh Cowan, Greg Vandermey, Scott Varney and Matt Scott ready to put up.
TOES TO THE M@#$*#$*@#F(*#(*&@N NOSE, BRO’S!

Skate Carioca Porra #1…The good quality version

SOTI — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 04:37:45 +0000

I’ve already posted a link to this vid I produced in Brasil in 2007, but I uploaded it back when youtube didn’t have the lovely HD option..so, here it is again in stunning almost HD quality but not quite.

Bigup to all the Avuatauba crew, Raphael Buarque and Fabricio Sacramento from Cartel Design, Rio de Janeiro. Fabricio’s making a proper website for SOTI right, thank Buddha, Mohhamed and whatever other deity you can think of.

We’re down with Korean Kids

SOTI — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 02:45:55 +0000

Literally. My friend and photographer/teacher Evan Nash lives in Seoul, Korea. He’s been getting his class hyped on skateboarding, and was able to get the kids to pay their respects to Stickiest of the Icky’s birthday with some art.

Just a reminder the STICKIEST OF THE ICKY 1.7 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SKATE JAM is going down this Friday, 9-midnight!
