2009

All the best for 2009 to you and yours and watch out on the streets tonight.

POUND

England´s Sterling is going down. Every dream has a price.

KAS

I found this picture somewhere on my laptop. This is Kaspar van Lierop who is pretty much the main guy over at Nike SB Europe, now you see that chick pointing out that bag... Ha yeah that´s funny.

ARNHEM

Arnhem really has some history.

Remember September ´44.

RANSOM

My favourite brand Ransom has got a new and improved website.

GIFTS

Christmastime means gifts... Apocalypse Now Redux Version

Anton from Hurray in Belgium gave this bag.

The Hundreds x Gravis. Thanks my Belgian friend.

Got this one from my parents. Draadstaal is the best thing on TV right now.

ROTTERDAM SAMPLE SALE

You may have heard about the Freshcotton Rotterdam Garagesale, well on a insiders note we will have a little sample sale there as well. All of the Spring/Summer 09 stuff will be available there for a bargain. That means Obey, CTRL, Sixpack France, Wemoto and The Hundreds

That means The Hundreds hats, jeans, shorts, shirts, flanels, jackets...literally everything sample-ish. Now you know.

LAST WEEK

I went to my parents to pick up their car an luckily for me when I arrived in Arnhem I heard about a grill get-together at Limpy and Jochem's. It was fun while it lasted...

Monday I moved from the Bijlmer to the Baarsjes. My roommate will have one lonely christmas.

My new house is great, it's a bit older but really spacious and ten minutes from the center of Amsterdam. It's kinda looking like jail now but I was out of the concrete nails to up pictures etc. Maybe I should host an indoor graffiti jam cause that's soo hot....

Had an accident in Nijmegen on the infamous Keizer Karelplein. It wasn't my fault, but the guy who drove into my right door claimed something else of course... Luckily for me I had two witnesses and at first he drove away and dissapeared for 20 minutes. Let's see who the insurance will believe now.

I went to the State Awards in De Melkweg. Apparently M.O.P. was there, but the guy on the right: Floor, is way more happenin'. Be on the lookout for his new brand, it won't be the same old stuff you know.

THE TUBE

Limpy from Frisco asked me to give him my Youtube Highlight of 2008. You can go and check it here. My picture is looking hella gay though, how do you get all those lame pictures of me acting like corky ?

SPOILERS

This is the trailer for the new EA Skate 2 game. It features all of your favourite pro's and the clip is just crazy.

ALL GONE

It's almost the end of the year so it's time to sum up... LaMJC did this for you go and check it out. I will update some more tomorrow since it's christmas and you always have too much time when it's christmas.

MOVING

Today and tommorow I will be moving to my new home in De Baarsjes here in Amsterdam. I will be living with my old friend Billy Pols who makes these kinds of shows for kids... It´s really like a Cribs for Kids.

MAN DOWN

I just love this clip of the Frisco Team in Almere. It was a really good day that day with good vibes, good tricks and if I might say so a really good clip. Yanni bite this one it needs more shine.

HANDY HARRY

Someones dad fucked up some home improvement.

ZEIKMAN

Yeah, Yeah so I am biting some shit.. Yanni is just a big pussy cause as you see in this picture we got a little beef last time we skated in Hijgman's hometown. He went home crying like a baby... sorry Yanni, but if you wanna start this than let's end it now.

NAUTICAL

WTAPS, Undefeated and Timberland did some good stuff. Too bad I don't own a Yacht.

MIND FIELD

Yannick Wijgman claimed I was biting his shit... How come ? Congrats my friend!
This is the new Alien Workshop Mind Field Trailer. It will premiere early Januari and it´s in that signature AWS style, lovin´it!

POLAROIDS

Harmen Bazuin is doing it the good way. I love his polaroids and luckily for me he created a blogspot. Go and check it here. Nothing but good stuff from the guy that will rip up 2009... Ain´t that right Harmen ?

S DOUBLE

I don´t want to destroy your dreams or anything, but from what I know the whole S Double thing is just a Stussy Vans Syndicate joint venture... A good one though but still.

NINETIES

I missed out on the 90´s movienight last saturday, but the mixtape also brings back a lot of memories,good job Vos. Check it here.

WHAT´S BEEF ?

My roommate is the Biggest Bitch on the planet period! Just a few minutes ago he started screaming at me that I had the choice to either use a headphone or he´d throw my TV out the window since the volume we had agreed on wasn´t enough. Listen to it, it even sounds lame. He is just impossible I will leave this house soon though but in the meanwhile if you feel like beating someone up email me.

ROMOLA ROAD

Like I told you earlier on I went to London. Now I went through airport Weeze in Germany since it´s supposed to be cheaper, but Ryanair is ruling over there and they are Airline Nazi´s. We got fucked multiple times and ended up with a 10 HOUR delay! I was so pissed.

Gerard Starkey is a friend of mine who is one of the famous Starkey Twins. He lives on Romola Road in a beautiful house. We were his guests. Thanks mate!

Here he is. Looking like a nerd and actually being a nerd. He is one the 5000 actuary´s in the world. He is a bright guy and claims he will beat me in the skateboard trivia game. Game on G! Game on!

This is the busstop around the corner from our house. It was about 30 minutes to the center and it only costs you 90 pence. Hella cheap.

London by night #1

London by night #2

Gerard Tivo´d the last Chris Rock show.

The last day was all bad weather.

We went to the National Geographic Store which is quite the experience.

They had a really good photo exhibition. See it.

London is dirty.

MOVIES

Me and Vinnie from the Blocnotes hooked up for a Movie Night. We went to At the Movies which is a great, pitoresque little theater. Changeling was the movie of choice. Clint Eastwood´s latest project based on a true story, it was a heavy one, but definitely a must see.

EPIC

I thought the whole Fully Flared thing on Epicly Later´d wouldn´t be that interesting, but the Mike Carroll thing is crazy.

HOOD

Hef, Crooks & Adonis are brothers and they will be dropping their Boyz in de Hood Mixtape this tuesday. This is some new good stuff. Freshcotton will be involved. The Emerging Markets will also cover some of this releasenessss... Soon!

LNDN

Tomorrow morning I will be leaving to London. I will try to update from there if I can otherwise go check an other blog, this one sucks anyway.
