full bleed.

skateboarding in new york city is a singular experience. it is impossible not to feel the magnitude of the landscape and with the city in constant motion, skateboarding is both exhilirating and extremely dangerous. there is no right or wrong way to navigate this vast terrain. only one thing is certain — the skaters and images produced in new york city are wholly unique.

the shots in full bleed span 30 years, with contributions from over 60 photographers. this is the first-ever comprehensive overview of one of the most diverse and rich skating locations in the world, bringing together legendary skaters and iconic photographers.

x ray results of my right foot.

so i fell and injured my right foot from ollieing down a ten foot drop from last night's skate sesh' with my buddy apez; and i thought i fractured my foot. luckily the results from the x ray scans as shown below, doesn't show any signs of fracture nor dislocation. thank god! but the doctor advice me to refrain from skating for the next three weeks. dog damn! that's a f'n long time but it's all good now knowing that i'll be alright. all praises due to allah!

i seriously need to get myself a new scanner. anyway, above is a medium resolution (sorta) image that i snapped using my digital camera, of an article/interview from streetwear magazine circa 2008.

it features innovative solutions by pierre andre senizergues (pas) and gil le bon de lapointe, turning skateboard decks into household furnishings. click on the image above to read the article (if it's readable to you, that is).

alternatively, you can click on the link below to know more about these two men's ideas and concepts.
