If the over-aired Adam Jones' double pits to chesty FMX commercial wasn't enough, Axe Body Spray has signed on Ryan Sheckler for a skate version of the commercial. By the looks of it, the FMX version of the double pits to chesty looks way gnarlier, but we're more than positive that the dudes that actually buy Axe will be way more persuaded by Sheckler's studly skating and boyish charm.
Axe's YouTube channel is full of all types of interesting stuff, including this super-random Axe produced skate video featuring Sheckler, Greg Lutzka and recently retired Jereme Rogers. It's a 6 minute long skate vid with a double pits to chesty commercial slyly inlayed throughout. I've just got to ask, what's next? Maybe a little Kelly Slater or Corey Bohan?
So I'm out here in Boston for the Dew Tour's Skateboarding World Championships. With a suffering economy and more and more pros having families with mouths to feed there actually should be some unexpected guests at this Dew Tour stop apart from the usual contest super stars (Sheckler, P-Rod) and rando-comando Brazilian park rippers. A few weeks ago, at the Maloof Money Cup I ran into Deluxe Team Manager John Alden. He mentioned that more and more of their riders are getting involved in the contest game to get some wider exposure and pad those paychecks. So don't be surprised to hear about Dennis Busenitz and Peter Ramondetta gunning for the podium. They're both here in Boston and ready to throw down.
Feels like it's Antihero day here today, but they're comin' in hot with the booty. Check out their breaking news story. You have got to love these guys. To see the their previous in-depth reporting, check out Action 18 News, where "When news breaks, it's because they broke it!"
The newest installment of the Beauty and the Beast Epicly Later'd just came out today and a good portion of the episode poses the question, "If you had to trade one Antihero member for a Girl member (or vis versa), who would you trade?" The question's a hard one, I would assume, for anyone on a team of skaters that they generally like, but even more so when you take into account the caliber of skaters—young and old, icon or future icon, street shredder or park murderer—that both teams have or had. I for one, could see Brian Anderson on either team, but know from talking to him that he just wants to stay with his friends.The rest are a toss-up, so I suggest delving into their pasts to see who goes where. These are only the facts, in video—just a list of the things they've each done to help decide. Take a look. Who would you trade.
