I recently bought one of these helmets from Bern. They are featured in GQ’s December issue. (Jocking my style…anyway) It’s very cool and breathable (flat black was my choice). I recommend it if you need to protect your nugget. They also have inserts for snowboarding and winter that keep your ears warm. Some of them even have built in headphones—a nice touch.

These decks by Damien Hirst are available in-store at Supreme in New York today.  Buy the whole dang set, because they’re worth it.  The T-shirt is on point too.

I am not 100% sure how to feel about these, what are your thoughts? They also come in the classic hi-top.

For more photos check out nice kicks.

15 years ago, who would have thought that you could be watching skate videos in Moma? Then did you ever think you’d be drinking Colt 45 watching a band (No Age) play next to a Rodin sculpture? I sure as hell didn’t.  Good time to be had last night, topped off by this amazing Chris Johanson poster detailed above.

After an enjoyable first issue a couple years ago, Volcomics 2 is now out and available for perusing digitally.  One note, if you’re on a 13-inch screen, forget about it.  Besides that, awesome.

Get some…

In honor of the MoMA retrospective Spike Jonze: The First 80 Years, PopRally has invited producer and photographer Patrick O’Dell (of Epicly Later’d) to create a special compilation of seminal skateboard videos from the 1980s to today. Jonze, whose own contributions to the genre will be featured, notes that, “Skate videos have been a big influence and a big part of what I’ve done for a long time. They are how I got into film, actually.” This unique screening is followed by a conversation with legendary skateboarders and filmmakers, including Jonze, Lance Mountain, Greg Hunt, Jake Phelps, Ty Evans, and other surprise guests.

Afterward please join us upstairs for a special performance by NO AGE.

The program begins promptly at 7:30.

Special thanks to Nike SB, Altamont Apparel, LTD, and ACE HOTEL NEW YORK for their sponsorship of this event. Beer generously provided by Colt 45.

Guests of this event receive an exclusive limited-edition poster by Chris Johanson
