Merry Christmas from Scotland..

Posted Wednesday, December 24th, 2008 by dept


Cube checked in with Holiday greetings to everyone from across the pond. Can’t wait to see this dude this spring. He also wanted to let everyone know that if the Carolina Panthers make the Super Bowl, he’s coming to Portland for a party at Hunter’s.
Merry Christmas Cube!!

Check Joe D.’s Arctic Blast

Posted Tuesday, December 16th, 2008 by dept


While everyone back in Portland is shivering through Arctic Blast 2008, Joe D. and his lady are living it up in 85 degree Cabo. What can be said about this dude? Your phone rings, it’s Joe telling you he’s got a photo to send, and next thing you know it’s in your inbox with the most ridiculous fish story you’ve ever heard. Some guys lives are straight out of the movies. Joe D. and the 40 Pound Tuna.

EDIT: Sorry dudes…Mahi Mahi. Tough crowd..

Garric’s POV

Posted Monday, December 15th, 2008 by dept


Check the new Skateboard Mag and you’ll see a double page spread of Paul Rodriguez 360 flipping the gap over at Cleveland High School shot by long time industry vet Jody Morris. Here’s Garric’s point of view of that same trick shot while bogarting Jody’s flashes. Maybe later we’ll run a few of Garric’s Sheckler flicks from the same day..

CRIDDLER 2 VIDEO PREMIERE Thursday night @ The Dept!!

Posted Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 by dept

Oh no they didn’t..
Yes they did.
The long awaited follow-up to the infamous Tales from the Criddler will be premiering tomorrow night at 9PM at The Dept. Executive Producer Justin Bemis has just put the finishing touches on his latest coming of age story about love, loss, bandanas, 22s, and Lil’ Wayne. Portland street shredding at it’s finest, as well as a heavy dose of the antics that have come to define a Criddler generation. Mom’s, you may want Billy to steer clear of this premiere as it carries a Parental Advisory.
Free is a very good price so roll by The Dept. tomorrow night after the last session and check the Criddler 2 premiere!!

Yes, this was filmed at The Dept…

No, we didn’t know it would end up being this cheesy..no pun intended.
The story we got was filming a Winter X Games commercial that focused more on skateboarding than snowboarding. Willis was involved and he definitely shreds so we figured that would be cool. D. Kass even rips, but never, ever, was Totinos mentioned in the deal. Not that there’s anything wrong with Totinos. Had we known that, we could’ve got Gabe and Ben involved and they’d skate for free pizza rolls. Moral of the story: Sometimes things aren’t what they seem.

Bacon Premiere tonight @ 7PM

Posted Friday, December 5th, 2008 by dept


The new Bacon Skateboards premiere is happening tonight starting at 8PM. It’s going to be the first time the bowl has been used as a video venue so that should be cool. If you don’t know a lot about Bacon or the dudes in the vid, make sure to swing by and check it out because it’s going to be full of shredding at it’s most raw form. The premiere is free to check out so you definitely have nothing to lose..

The results are in..
