Get Ready, Get Set -- Go Skateboarding Day - June 21

http://www.goskateboardingday.org
On June 21 skateboarders around the globe will celebrate the pure exhilaration, creativity, and spirit of one of the most influential activities in the world by blowing off all other obligations to go skateboarding!

Skateboarders everywhere will hold fundraisers, contests, protests, demo’s, they’ll skate across cities, gather in skateparks, stream into their local skate shop and some will even revel in the solitary act of skateboarding alone, all bringing together the skateboarding community in the grind heard around the world.

Hey You Guys! Only 6 days left to get some new grip on you board, tighten your trucks, add some new bling to your helmet, call in sick to work. You know you want to...but if you can't, at least enjoy this documentary:

Beautiful Losers

Beautiful Losers, brainchild of Aaron Rose and Christian Strike, brings together a loose-knit group of like-minded artists who drew (and continue to draw) inspiration from the fertile underground cultures of skateboarding, Hip Hop and Punk Rock.
