XMAS

12/25/2009

Happy Holla Daze. We have the new issues cued up and ready to roll out over the next few weeks... I also have somewhat of a big announcement to make... but, in due time. Thanks again to all the supporters of this site and a huge tip of the hat to Haveboard and Johnny Gomez who have been an enormous help this year. Now go out and hit a grind for me, as I'm knee-deep in snow at the moment. Cheers! Read More

LEFTOVERS

11/26/2009

Happy "turkey day" everyone. Here are some leftovers/recycled stuff to watch while that food and booze set in. It's mostly Autumn Bowl out-takes and a few things that didn't make the cut for the next issue... which is nearly done. Cheers. Music: Johnny Thunders, Live 1984. Read More

BEHIND THE TAPE: BABYSTEPS

10/12/2009

The first issue of Broketape took over a year, with umpteen edits and various music choices. Finally, after I moved to Taos ... two hours from the skate scene I was dedicated to covering, things finally got moving. In issues Two and Three, new parks were opening up, new friends were being made, and the guard of the Albuquerque scene seemed to be changing. As exciting as it was, this period of time was bitter ... Read More

BEHIND THE TAPE? SURE.

10/10/2009

I have been working on a "Best of" type of deal ever since the computer melt-down happened and I found myself filling a hard-drive with all the old clips, etc. I had every intention of making an epic montage that would shock and amaze the internet skate video conglomerate, but then, I sort of got "over it." Then I got stoked again. Etc. Now, with Fall upon us and probably two issues coming within the next couple ... Read More

GET IT STRAIGHT

07/01/2009

Mark Gonzales rules it so hard ... always has. From Video Days to the recent Day in the Life (link), watching him is always entertaining and unique. I recently dusted of my copy of the Krooked video masterpiece Gnar Gnar and wanted to share a few observations. Raddest line-up ever. Van Wastell looked so damn natural on a skateboard. Sometimes just pushing down the street can be sick to watch. Technology don't me ... Read More
