SKATEISTAN: TO LIVE AND SKATE KABUL

2010-11-09T00:12:00.001-08:00

Skateistan: To Live And Skate Kabul is a beautifully shot film that
follows the lives of a group of young skateboarders in Afghanistan. Operating against the backdrop of war and bleak prospects, the Skateistan charity project is the world’s first co-educational skateboarding school, where a team of international volunteers work with girls and boys between the ages of 5 and 17, an age group largely untouched by other aid programmes.
BY ORLANDO VON EINSIEDEL
"Disini kita bisa melihat bagaimana skateboarding dapat membantu,menghibur, menemani, bahkan melupakan sejenak teror perang yg dialami anak-anak korban akibat perang".

LISTEN UP! Vampire Weekend - Giving Up The Gun

2010-03-24T19:59:00.000-07:00

US four-piece Vampire Weekend are back and bashing out their preppy-indie rock tunes for our listening pleasure. 'Giving Up The Gun' the third release from latest album Contra, is a twinkling delight of song building in a crescendo of cascading sound and warmly delighting in only a way New Yorkers Vampire Weekend can.

The videos also a joy to behold as it centres on a tennis match in which a young woman faces off against Joe Jonas; Jake Gyllenhaal, who swigs from a flask and rips off his jeans; and Lil Jon, who sports a Panama hat and speaks in subtitled French. The match is judged by the Wu-Tang Clan’s RZA, wdressed like a character from The Matrix...ENJOY!

Cha-Cha The Fellowship - Debut Album Details Revealed

2010-03-24T19:43:00.000-07:00

Our latest tip for 'bands destined for greatness' is Cha-Cha. This fellowship of individually talented songwriters, initially brought together by a phonographic love for The Virgins, The Strokes, The Police and Phoenix, have finally emerged from their London hideout to introduce themselves. Cha-Cha have had a busy first year together writing, recording and performing their debut album, ‘We Are...’, and are now finally ready for you to take notice.

Having crafted what the self-confessed perfectionists describe as "a cross between dirty pop hymns and offbeat disco rock", Cha-Cha hit the London gig circuit in March 2009 and soon found the demand for their 4-track demo CD going way beyond their control, as new fans witnessing their truly energetic live performances became eager to take something else beside the memories home - all the while the tactful trio still aiming to remain relatively under the radar until their pop-fuelled debut album was ready.

Cha-Cha, which features Blain McGuigan on lead vocals/bass, Alex Cameron Ward on secondary vocals/guitar, and Samuel Garbutt on drums, use a variety of synths, noises and looped effects to significantly boost their distinctly three-piece sound to another level. With a primary focus on vocal hooks, driving basslines, jingly guitars and danceable beats, the band want to get as many feet moving, heads bopping and hands clapping for as long as you’ll let them.

Cha-Cha recently returned from the studio with their ten-track debut album ‘We Are...’ in hand, which is due for release via newly established Pop Noodle Records in April 2010. Having released debut single ‘Phonographic Love’ in January, the currently unreleased album is starting to attract a strong and impatient interest from newly discovered fans. With a nationwide tour currently being planned and big support slots already in the pipeline, 2010 looks set to become an exciting year for the band who up until now have been deliberately avoiding the limelight until their album was ready - and now that it is, it’s their time to shine.

SUICIDAL TENDENCIES

2010-03-23T03:46:00.000-07:00

The story so far
Judging from their name, Suicidal Tendencies were never afraid of a little controversy. Formed in Venice, CA, during the early '80s, the group's leader from the beginning was outspoken vocalist Mike Muir. The outfit specialized in vicious hardcore early on -- building a huge following among skateboarders, lending a major hand in the creation of skatepunk -- before turning their focus eventually to thrash metal. Early on, the group (whose original lineup included Muir, guitarist Grant Estes, bassist Louiche Mayorga, and drummer Amery Smith) found it increasingly difficult to book shows, due to rumors of its members' affiliation with local gangs and consistent violence at their performances. The underground buzz regarding Suicidal Tendencies grew too loud for labels to ignore though, as the quartet signed on with the indie label Frontier; issuing Muir and company's classic self-titled debut in 1983. The album quickly became the best-selling hardcore album up to that point; its best-known track, "Institutionalized," was one of the first hardcore punk videos to receive substantial airplay on MTV, and was eventually used in the Emilio Estevez cult classic movie Repo Man, as well as in an episode for the hit TV show Miami Vice (for which the group made a cameo appearance).

Suicidal Tendencies proved influential for future speed/thrash metal bands, but despite its early success, the quartet's reputation preceded them, as no other record label was willing to take them on (in addition, Los Angeles banned the group from playing around this time, lasting until the early '90s). Not much was heard from the group for several years afterward (leading many to believe that Suicidal had broken up), but Muir and company eventually found a home with Caroline Records. By this time, half of the original lineup had left; Muir and Mayorga were the only holdovers, while guitarist Rocky George and drummer R.J. Herrera rounded out the group. 1987 saw the release of Suicidal's sophomore release, Join the Army, which spawned another popular skatepunk anthem, "Possessed to Skate," as more and more metal heads began to be spotted in Suicidal's audience. Soon after, Suicidal was finally offered a major-label contract (with Epic), as another lineup change occurred: Mayorga exited the band, while newcomer Bob Heathcote took his spot; and a second guitarist, Mike Clark, was added as well. This Suicidal lineup's first album together, 1988's How Will I Laugh Tomorrow When I Can't Even Smile Today, showed that their transformation from hardcore to heavy metal was now complete, as did a compilation of two earlier EPs, 1989's Controlled by Hatred/Feel Like Shit...Déjà

Suicidal's first release of the new decade, 1990's Lights, Camera, Revolution, was another success; its video for the explosive "You Can't Bring Me Down" received repeated airings on MTV's Headbanger's Ball program, while the album (in addition to the Controlled by Hatred comp) would be certified gold in the U.S. a few years later. The release also signaled the arrival of new bassist Robert Trujillo, whose penchant for funk added a new element to the group's sound. The group tried to broaden their audience even further by opening a string of arena shows for prog-metallists Queensrÿche during the summer of 1991. Their next release, 1992's The Art of Rebellion, proved to be one of Suicidal's most musically experimental albums of their career. Muir and Trujillo also teamed up around this time for a funk metal side project, Infectious Grooves (including several other participants, such as Jane's Addiction drummer Stephen Perkins) and issued a debut release, The Plague That Makes Your Booty Move. Upset that the group's classic debut had been out of print for several years by this point, Muir decided to re-record the entire record with Suicidal's '90s lineup under the title of Still Cyco After All These Years.

But after one more release, 1994's Suicidal for Life, Suicidal Tendencies decided to hang it up. A pair of compilations were issued in 1997: a best-of set, Prime Cuts, plus Friends & Family. Muir and Trujillo continued to issue further Infectious Grooves releases (Sarsippius' Ark and Groove Family Cyco), in addition to Muir pursuing a solo career under the alias of Cyco Miko (Lost My Brain Once Again) and Trujillo touring and recording as part of Ozzy Osbourne's solo band (appearing on Osbourne's 2001 release, Down to Earth). Muir formed a new version of Suicidal Tendencies in the late '90s (with Clark being the only other familiar face), resulting in such further studio releases as 1999's Freedumb and 2000's Free Your Soul and Save My Mind. Muir and Trujillo joined forces once more for a fourth Infectious Grooves studio release in 2000, Mas Borracho; while another Cyco Miko release surfaced, Schizophrenic Born Again Problem Child, along with a follow-up up to their earlier compilation, Friends & Family, Vol. 2. Now the band will be back with their brand new album for 2009.......

Line-up 2009
Mike Muir - Vocals, Mike Clark - Guitars, Eric Moore - Drums, Dean Pleasants - Guitars, Steve Brunner - Bassguitars

10 Tricks With Tommy Sandoval

2010-02-12T20:23:00.000-08:00

What do you get when you drop a waffle in the sand? No, not a Tommy Sandoval, that's what you get when you draw an oval in the sand. When you drop a waffle in the sand you get a sandy eggo, get it San Diego. And ovals drawn in the sand, and sandy eggos, both apply to this San Diego native, Chula Vista to be exact.

Tommy Sandoval has been turning heads for a few years now. One moment that sticks out is his performance at the 2009 Maloof Money Cup, yeah he finished second in street and everything, but what really sticks out for me is the gap ollie to backside 50-50 across the big wall that he was attempting. To pull it off he would of had to land one of the biggest 50-50 re-entrys I've seen. Not to mention, the gap to 50-50 part, it was pretty damn insane. Everyone was on their feet from Koston to Rowley, and everyone in between. Anyway, here's a 10 Tricks video clip courtesy of www.blackboxdist.com:

Goodtimes Skateboards owner discussess 2010 footwear trends

2010-01-20T23:40:00.000-08:00

Mike CurielGoodtimes SkateboardsSan Antonio, Texas
The skate scene in Texas is alive and well. Mike Curiel runs Goodtimes, a three door chain of stores known for its commitment to hardgoods and skate shoes. Read what he has to say about the footwear market for 2010 right here.

How have your footwear sales been in 2009 versus 2008?

Footwear sales are down for us about sixteen percent.

How has the number of styles you stock on your shoe wall changed over the past twelve months?

We have cut down the number of shoes on the wall by about 20 to 25 styles.

What brands does your store carry, and of those brands, which are the best sellers this year?

We carry etnies, éS, Emerica, Nike SB, Lakai, DVS, Vans, C1RCA, Adio, Osiris, Vox, DC, Fallen, Cons, and adidas. Our best sell-through per brand has been Circa, Lakai, Vans, Emerica, and Nike SB, in that order. etnies came on strong at the end of 2009.

What’s the number one trend you’ve seen emerge over the past season?

The number one trend is the price at which people are shopping for—what is on sale. No matter what brand, style, cupsole, vulc, or color, it is all about price.

Are vulcanized shoes selling well in your store?

Vulcanized are doing really well right now and have been for about two years. I think the trend will last until kids realize board feel isn’t as important as being able to walk when you’re older! Cupsole, on the other hand, is almost nonexistent in our shop for 2009 and almost no presence prebooked for 2010.

What do you expect to retail well in 2010?

It’s hard to tell what’s going to happen for next year, shoe sales are so low it doesn’t leave me with much confidence in one brand more than any other. A lot of the shoes even look alike.

Are you planning to bring in any new brands next season?

The only brand I see new in the store next year is maybe a small run from Habitat. They have simple silhouettes and decent prices.

How to make a Skateboard Grind Ledge

2010-01-13T00:15:00.000-08:00

How to make a Skateboard Grind Ledge

A skateboard grind ledge is easy to build and doesn't take much wood. The this grind ledge is 8' long, 2' wide and a 1' tall.

As with all structures here on DIYskate, you can build this grind ledge any size you want. However, for the material list to be accurate you will need to follow the plans as listed below.

Where to get your Supplies

The wood and hardware can be found at most home improvement stores. Sometimes you can find the steel there as well, I know my local Home Depot carries the coping and threshold material.

If not, check the phone book. Look up Steel, Steel Yards, Steel Fabricators, Scrap Steel & anything else with Steel in the title.

If this ramp is going to stay outside, it needs to be protected from the elements. A good place to start is with pressure treated lumber, paint and a tarp. You may want to invest in a composite material for the surface too. Such as Skate Lite or Ramp Armor.

Be extra careful when working with treated lumber though, the chemicals used to treat the wood contain a poisonous pesticide.

Framing the bottom

Gather your materials. Start with the 2×4's. Cut twelve pieces at 1'-9 in length (you will get four out of each 8' long 2×4). Set them aside. Cut six pieces at 1'-0, these determine the height of the grind ledge. Below is a cut list referencing what else you will need and it's size.

Material Cut List

Lumber
Qty.		Type	Size
4	•	2×4	18'-0
12	•	2×4	1'-9
6	•	2×4	1'-0

Plywood
Qty.		Type	Size
1	•	3/4" Ply	1'-0 3/4 × 8'-0
1	•	3/4" Ply	1'-0 × 8'-0

Steel
Qty.		Type	Size
1	•	2×2×1/4" Angle	8'-0

Framing the Bottom

Now build the bottom of the box to look like this below.

You will use the last two 2×4's at 8'-0 for the sides and three of the 1'-9 pieces for the framing. The one in the middle is centered.

You should pre-drill the screw locations near the ends with a 1/16" drill bit to keep them from splitting.

Framing the Top

Build the top of the grind ledge to look like this. Using two of the uncut 2×4's for the sides and nine of the 1'-9 pieces placed every 1'-0 on center as shown. If your trying to make the box lighter, you can use only five of the 1'-9 long pieces here. Just remember, these are what hold the top up. If you plan on skating the crap out of this box, nine might be a better option.

Attaching the Sides

Attach the six pieces that are 1'-0 in length to the bottom of the box like shown here. Put four screws in each piece, two through each side.

Attaching the top

Place the top on the newly attached sides. This is much easier if you flip the bottom over or lay it on its side. Put four screws in each just like the bottom. Make sure the ledge is square. If you don't the box will rock on the ground like a wobbly table.

Attaching the Plywood

Your done framing the box. Now you want to attach the plywood as shown in the picture. Cut the top layer 2'-0 wide and the side plywood at 1-0 3/4". If you changed the height of the box just cut the side plywood 3/4" taller than your box so you can cover the top sheet of plywood.

Attaching the Coping

Place the angle iron on the edge of box like shown. Drill a 3/16" hole on each end on both sides where shown. The top and bottom dimensions are offset so the screws won't hit each other. On a box this length you need to place a couple more screws about 2'-6 apart on each side.

Once drilled, countersink each by using the 3/8" drill bit to drill down just enough so the screw heads are flush with the coping. This will keep your trucks and board from hitting them when you grind or slide.

Skate it

Congratulations, you have just finished building a solid skateboard grind ledge that will last. Give it some paint and stickers then it's time to get your kickflip backside smiths on lock. Good luck. (source from DIYSKATES.COM)

How to make a Silk Screen Press

2010-01-12T23:53:00.001-08:00

How to make a Silk Screen Press

Do you want to know how to make a silk screen press to silk screen skateboard decks from nose to tail? Then keep reading.

This silk screen press should work on most double kick tail skateboards, but you may need to tweak the design for your particular deck. Before you get started, please read the entire article and try to have a good understanding of the process.

Also, keep in mind that each skateboard is a little bit different from each other and you may have to do some figuring of your own on this press - gasp! This is just the general idea.

Preparation - How to make a Screen Press

Quick note about these. You can not use the emulsion technique with this curved screen. Do some research on "Drawing Fluid" for more information on the alternate technique.

Gather the materials called for in the material list to your right. The wood and hinges should easily be found at most home improvement stores such as Lowe's, Home Depot or Menard's

The actual silk screen material and other supplies used for screening the skateboard can be found at local hobby stores like Michaels, Hobby lobby, etc... Also take a look at online stores such as Blick Art Materials for a larger selection.

This set of plans covers how to make a silk screen press for skateboards, not how to do the silk screening itself. I will cover silk screening and graphics in a separate set of articles later.

Printing - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Start by printing out these four pdf drawings for the sides of the press.

Make sure these drawings are printed to scale, filling up four an 8 1/2" x 11" sheets of paper. I have included a 2" logo on these drawings which you can measure to check scale.

PDF drawings

Left Screen #1

Left Screen #2

Right Screen #3

Right Screen #4

Frame Sides - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Trace, or spray adhesive the printed drawings onto the 3/4" thick wood for the sides.

Once traced, cut them out and set them aside. You will need two sides for this silk screen press.

Frame Ends - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Now cut the three pieces of 3/4" thick wood to 1' × 2" for the ends.

Base assembly - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Cut a piece of 3/4" wood to 1'-1 × 3'-1 for the base.

Place one of the previously cut 1' × 2" ends on the base 1/2" in on the sides and end as shown below. Use 1 1/4" screws and wood glue to attach it to the base and set it aside for now.

Frame Assembly - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Using the remaining two ends, attach them to each side with 1 1/4" screws (two per connection) and a bit of wood glue. Pre-drill the screw hole locations with a 1/16" drill bit to avoid splitting.

When assembling the frame, it's a good idea to construct it on a level surface. Making it easier to keep it square, which is essential to a good screen press.

Stretching the Fabric - How to make a Silk Screen Press

After the frame has been assembled, you can stretch the silk screen fabric over it.

You can use hot melt glue or staples and a staple gun to attach the fabric to the frame. If you choose staples, you will need to reinforce the fabric by covering the edges with duct tape and folding it over, leaving about 3/4" to staple through. This keeps the fabric from ripping.

To stretch the fabric, start at one end and secure it to the frame, then work your way down the sides until you reach the other end and attach it there as well. Your goal is to stretch the fabric as tight as possible onto the frame without causing it to tear.

Stretching the silk screen fabric material as tight as possible allows the fabric to remove cleanly (pop) from the skateboard deck once the ink has been spread onto the deck. Creating the cleanest image possible. You also want to make sure you have no ripples or kinks in the fabric and the frame is level and square or it will ruin the artwork.

I have also attached fabric starting from the center of a frame and worked my way out from there.
I don't know if this technique will work with this kind of press though - experiment!

Hinge Assembly - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Once you have the frame assembled and the third end attached to the base, place two hinges about 6 inches apart on the top of the end attached to the base, centered.

You can use a variety of hinges here, although there are specific hinges made for silk screen presses which can lock the frame in place and also allow quick removal of the frame. Something to look into if you're going to be using your silk screen press often.

These hinges may be obtained at the previously mentioned art supply stores.

Hinge Assembly... continued - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Place the previously completed silk screen press frame onto the base and make sure the hinges line up perfectly, then attach them to the frame, then to each other.

Test out the frame to be sure it swings freely without resistance.

Deck Guides - How to make a Silk Screen Press

In order for the silk screen press to work effectively, you will need a way of keeping the deck securely in place while applying the ink.

That's where these deck guides come into play. Make two of these little squares by cutting a piece of 3/4" wood to the size shown above and placing two 3/16" dowel rods into the holes drilled.

Once assembled, place a deck onto the base of your new silk screen press and line up the dowel rods with the truck holes in the skateboard deck. Mark the location with a sharpie or pencil and attach them to the base with 1 1/4" screws. Be sure to double check each one after attaching them so they line up.

If done properly, these will hold the deck securely in place while printing the graphics.

Finished - How to make a Silk Screen Press

Add a little wooden kickstand that's about a foot long in the center of the press to hold it up while removing the decks and you are done.

You may have to do some tweaking and a little trial and error to get what works for you but that's all there is to it. The article on how to actually screen the decks should be on it's way or you can locate one of the many on the net.

CAPITALIST CASUALTIES / HELLNATION Split CD / Vinyl

2009-12-30T01:38:00.000-08:00

Penantian yg berakhir sudah setelah kembalinya 2 band legendaris asal Amerika Serikat.

CAPITALIST CASUALTIES (California) dan HELLNATION (Kentucky). Berkolaborasi dengan baik dalam split album terbaru mereka. HELLNATION 12 lagu terbaru mereka masih dengan tema anti-perang dan kehancuran lingkungan, dan tetap bermain hardcore-cepat-berisik (WTF?). 9 lagu political-hardcore CAPITALIST CASUALTIES yang terbaru sangat matang, maklum saja dengan proses pembuatan selama 11 tahun cukup membuat para veteran East-Bay Hardcore ini dapat mengekspresikan kemarahan mereka terhadap pemerintahan dan ketidakadilan dalam hidup dengan baik. Overall, they’re still bring the essential blazing hardcore regardless of whatever shit trend is in fashion.

Di rilis oleh: Sound Pollution Records & Six Weeks Records. 2009

Weezer – Raditude "new album"

2009-12-30T01:35:00.000-08:00

Rivers Cuomo dengan ketiga temannya di Weezer kembali mengajak Anda melupakan sejenak permasalahan dan bermain bersama mereka dalam album terbaru, Raditude. Jika diperhatikan, konsep seperti inilah yang selalu diusung oleh Weezer. Mari bermain bersama mereka dalam suka maupun duka.

Seperti biasa, Rivers mengangkat hal-hal ironis, yang umumnya terjadi pada kehidupan pribadinya, menjadi sesuatu yang musikal. Hal ini dapat Anda temukan dalam album-album Weezer, mulai dari Blue Album hingga Red Album. Satu hal yang membedakan adalah terlihat proses pendewasaan dari diri Rivers pada setiap albumnya.

Dulu pada era Blue Album dan Pinkerton, mungkin Anda akan mendapatkan seorang geek bernama Rivers yang pasrah dengan segala yang terjadi di sekitarnya. Di Raditude, Anda kembali akan menemui geek tersebut. Ia sekarang sudah berumur, berpengalaman, dan berusaha mengajak Anda memberontak terhadap keadaan dengan cara berpesta dan bernyanyi bersama-sama. Walaupun kepasrahan akan keadaan, tetap terasa pada lirik-lirik Weezer yang tetap ironis.

Berbeda dengan album sebelumnya, Red Album, Weezer pada kesempatan kali ini berusaha mengeksplorasi ke beberapa daerah yang belum pernah mereka jamah sebelumnya. Secara suara dan produksi album, Raditude memiliki kualitas yang lebih dibandingkan album-album Weezer sebelumnya.

Berperan sebagai single pertama, lagu “(If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To” menggebrak album ini dan memperlihatkan Rivers yang masih bisa nakal dengan rhythm-rhythm yang catchy. Pada lagu “I’m your Daddy” Weezer mencoba peruntungan di ranah dance dengan memasukan drum loop standar musik dance.

Pada lagu “Can’t Stop Partying”, Rivers seperti berkata “Hey, beat dance terdengar keren! Mari sekalian saja kita maksimalkan di lagu ini”. Untuk lagu “Love is the Answer”, Weezer mengepak barang bawaan mereka dan pergi melancong ke timur untuk mendapat pencerahan lewat layer-layer suara sitar, biduanita India, dan seruling psikedelik.

Jangan harap Anda mendapatkan kekonyolan remaja ala Blue Album dan Pinkerton di album ini. Ya, Rivers terkadang masih ironis di Raditude, hanya saja ia terlihat lebih serius dalam menyiapkan apa yang dia senandungkan di album ini.
