Jesus Hates Skater kids!!

Sunday, May 15th, 2011

LA WEEKLY BLOG:  Jesus Hates Skater Kids: ‘Lincoln Ramp’ Half Pipe in Venice Torn Down by Fun-Killers at United Methodist Church  http://blogs.laweekly.com/informer/2011/05/lincoln_ramp_venice_torn_down_church.php

Andrew Reynolds filmed part of his Stay Gold Video here, the Termite kids skated with Shaun White a few weeks ago and so many skaters learned to skate here or practiced there.  BambooSK8 did a 1 day teaching event at the school there to inspire the skate kids about the importance of education.  We are sad to see that ramp go!!  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=939FACJV2dE

Shame on them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  So many pastors feel their church is a hotel for saints and not a hospital for sinners.  They have it all wrong!!!!!!!!  I wish I had 10 minutes with that guy to see if he is beyond redemption or even has a soul…if he has any soul left…he may listen to an old youth pastor that is an advocate and knows the good that comes from skateboarding…ARGGGGGG!  If you have his email…I would love to have it.  Best of luck to Heidi and all her saints!

greenexpo 300x225 GO GREEN LOS ANGELES EXPOgreencart 300x225 GO GREEN LOS ANGELES EXPO

Bamboosk8 stopped by the LOS ANGELES GREEN EXPO at the LA convention center this past weekend.  A variety of companies were present from solar energy to organic drinks to eco clothing and then a whole bunch of companies I couldn’t decifer what it was they do other than call themselves a “green” company.  Nonetheless, it’s great to see the efforts of so many companies and people coming together for the collective spirt of change; positive green sustainable change.

A few of our favorites were:

topo ranch – www.toporanch.com – located on abbott kinney in venice

steaz – www.steazenergy.com – great energy drinks without all the “redbull sugar”
