    RecreationI don't imagine we'll be hosting a stop any time soon, but it's good to know what's up in the world...

    From the press release:

    "The world’s best street skateboarders sign to the first million dollar professional tour with three stops in 2010..."

    The brainchild of Rob Dyrdek- from Rob and Big fame...

    I see that California Skateparks is the builder of the course, which gets set up at each arena. They were one of the companies that expressed interest in helping develop the Brattleboro Site. They built the massive park in Bristol, CT.

    Here's a glimpse of one of the founders of street skating.

    The skate coalition is soley focued on getting a park. My interest here is something bigger, and addresses the notion of how the community sees itself, and treats its youth. "Be patient", or "STFU", or any of the other messages of delay or denial, is not said to artists and athletes of other forms, and that's why we persist in speaking up for ourselves and those too young to yet find a voice.

    I noticed that at the Nickelodeon Kid's Choice Awards this weekend, the
    boys and girls across the country chose a skateboarder as "Best Male
    Athlete." Ryan Sheckler beat Shaun White, LeBron James, and Kobe
    Bryant to take home the orange blimp.

    Sheckler and the Mega Ramp...Not too shabby for a streetskater. You can see why he's a kids fave.

    Note: Sheckler get tips from Danny Way- the man who invented the ramp

    (caution squeamish parents: A few quick f-bombs at the outset)

    What a great teacher. After I saw what he was trying to get them to do,
    I could see why the kids were a little dubious. But hey, they did it!

    Danny did jump the great Wall of China on his board, that's got to give some perspective.

    As mega and outrageous as that ramp is, it's amazing to think we have an equally sick jump on right here on Cedar street.

    Right now, my view is that Brattleboro is
    improving by leaps and bounds
    getting better slowly
    staying about the same as always
    slowly going downhill
    rapidly falling apart
