The weekend's almost here and if you're in or around New Jersey, you'll need to head to Sayreville Skatepark this Saturday, April 26th. Chris Nieratko's shop, NJ Skateshop will be hosting this Red Bull demo featuring riders, Zered Bassett, Danny Supa, Ron Deily and Nick Dompierre. Be there at 3PM sharp to skate the park with the team, chug some liquid energy and rep dirty jerz to the absolute fullest. Chris also sent me over this video link of a Shields Skatepark, April 13th skate jam featuring 13 East Coast shops. All came together to shred the park for a great cause, and when all was said and done, $2,500 was raised for The Buoniconti Fund to Cure Paralysis. Check the video.
On a super sad note, Ali Boulala has been sentenced to at least two years in jail for his involvement in the motorcycle crash that took the life of his friend and teammate, Shane Cross last year. In an article in the Australian paper, The Daily Telegraph, it's noted that Boulala was likely to be permanently affected by the injuries he sustained in the crash and it's unknown as to whether or not he will skate again. It also mentioned that Ali "Had a reduced range of movement, strength and coordination and sufered spasticity in his lower righ leg." Truly sad stuff. My condolences go to Ali and his loved ones in this extended period of suffering.

David G On The VNew Flip pro and Colombian native, David Gonzalez has been added to the Volcom team. The little long haired man-child is proving to be the future of skateboarding, skating anything and everything like every little grom wishes they could. Circa footwear has a bunch of footage posted in something called THE CIRCA VIDEO LOUNGE, and includes demo and street footy from C1RCA's Tour de Smash 2007 South America rendezvous. There's a bunch of sick skating in there from Tony Tave, David Reyes, Windsor James, Julian Davidson and Danny Cerezini. Check the latest video and watch them skate before hundreds of fans in packed out arenas, in between getting chased down by crowds of screaming girls as if they were the g'damned New Kids On The Block. Times have changed, haven't they.
