Danny Way Breaking Records. Not Bones

Friday, April 17th, 2009

Danny Way has come a long way since the early days of PLAN B when throwing pies on a Saturday night was the norm.  I think it’s also safe to say that long gone are the days when he used to hang out at the border as a MINUTEMAN while ...

The 3rd Annual Nixon High Tide Hold’Em Comes Down To Ping Pong

Thursday, March 5th, 2009

  I’ve been saying this for years now, “Poker players are the most complete athletes of all the athletes from all the sports”.  That is why ESPN, “The world wide leader in sports,” constantly plays and replays competitive high stakes poker on all their channels.  ESPN, ESPN 2, ESPN Classic, ESPN ...

High Tide Hold’Em In Tavarua, Fiji With Some A-List Stars

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

Wow, I haven’t seen this many top-notch athletes in one tropical place at once playing a game of poker since Greg Fossil Man Raymer, Amir Vahedi, and PHIL HELLMUTH had a go at $2,000,000 in Aruba.  I honestly don’t think that Tony Hawk, Danny Way, and Andy Irons are half ...

DC Welcomes Chaz Ortiz To The Team

Monday, February 2nd, 2009

After flipping through the pages of Teen Hunkz Magazine, I read that the CHAZ ORTIZ’s string of lucky events is not coming to an end anytime soon. Although I wouldn’t call it luck, but rather skillz. Skateboarding skillz. (You like how I used skillz? I replaced the ...

Brand New “S.K.A.T.E. 2” Trailer For Playstation 3

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

Screw Hawk Man-X with his buddies jumping around in their briefs to the theme song of RISKY BUSINESS promoting Rock Band.  I was never an admirer of that silliness for sure even if it did star Hawk Man-X himself, the other P-Rod, Michael Phelps and Kobe Bryant.  And screw the ...

Danny Way Discusses The Mega Ramp In The Wall Street Journal

Friday, December 12th, 2008

Do you remember being a young kid during the summer time out at the city pool with a bunch of friends?  Do you recall how much peer pressure your friends put on you to dive off the high platform?  I bet you nearly had to change your Speedo that day.  ...

Danny Way Breaks Two Vertebrae in MegaRamp Crash

Saturday, November 22nd, 2008

Danny Way has crashed on the MegaRamp while performing in Brazil for an event.  SkateDaily found the report from Brazil, where Bob Burnquist, Way and others were in town for a contest going down this weekend. As you can see in the video below, Way didn't land cleanly after clearing the ...

Danny Way & Bob Burnquist’s Band

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

When Bob Burnquist was sitting down over a decade ago watching Danny Way and Colin McCay as wet behind the ears teenagers on Plan B’s very influential first video “The Questionable Video”, I highly doubt he ever imagined he would be in a band with one of his idols. ...

Danny Way On Letterman Tonight

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

I can’t remember the last time a skater was on a late night show.  Not that I watch much late night TV unless it’s Conan, but I’m thinking the only skaters to actually get the invite onto a show is Josh Brolin after doing Thrashin, possibly Johnny Knoxville and the ...

My 1st Day At X-Games 14: Day 2

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

Because of strict X-Games rules and restrictions, I was unable to videotape freely as I always do when I attend an event.  You know what I mean, like getting skaters in compromising candids that I can use to blackmail them for some free gear.  I’m shameless like that. Anyway I ...
