April in Paris

110109.jpg

Some recent wonderful things to watch while I am mustering up the energy to make a new clip:

This is one of the best clips to be on the internet in a while. Everything that people have come to love about New York skateboarding without seeming like its trying too hard or channeling the most recent gay cellar door video part. Good times the whole way through. Sure, nobody in New York will ever get on Cliché, but we have more heart than them.

And while we’re on the topic of brilliant soundtrack choices, here’s another one to the sonic musings of the same man, by everyone’s favorite northeastern skateboard videographer.

And obviously, both of these links were stolen from 48 Blocks.

P.S. The realest rapper out. Shor-day!

    i’m confused by the Cliche comment, why wouldn’t a NY’er get on? NY gets more love than anywhere these days its hardly an underdog town is it? get in the back of the line.
