This is how we do it. Colabo.ca Launches First GoPro HD Cams to the World – The Ultimate Colaboration
 It is a bright and exciting time for all of us in this new era of skateboarding! As of Friday, October 23, Colabo.ca would like to welcome you to their fresh and new horizon and new website www.colabo.ca
. Trailing back to the initial creation of the many non-profit
longboarding videos and the synergy of Team Colabo, their passion and
experience has rapidly grown to a point where they can further there
innovative efforts through new COLABOrations. Through the past year
they have successfully been able to complete their first official
feature length longboard film, The Fellowship of the Bearing, which was
captured completely in HD and funded on heart and determination.
The
film itself was shot and edited over the course of the 2008-2009 season
with the co-operation of the Colabo's Team riders and the kindness of
Colabo's amazing digital video crew. Stepping freshly into the film
industry initially made the production quite the gamble, but through
many trials and tribulations the film reached its finale. Great
feedback and exposure both nationally and internationally lead to their
latest outing to Alberta and being awarded a scholarship to the
prestigious Banff Mountain Film Festival from November 3rd to 9th. |

Jason Salfi Gets Steep & Deep |

It was early May in Colorado, and it was supposed to rain all weekend. The Buffalo Bill Downhill on Lookout Mountain, organized by Comet conspirator and Pagan pioneer Justin Dubois, was slated for May 9-10. Lookout Mountain was paved in 1917. The road was graded to accommodate Model T cars, so the average grade is 7% and is littered with hairpin turns – albeit flat hairpin turns – but we’ll get to that later.
The minute I got off the plane I was greeted by the legendary Callahan and Rizzo, and we got to work picking up the road closure signs. We were graciously fed free burgers and bratwursts by the Colorado Dept. of Transportation. By 2 p.m. we had added Brent Dubendorff and Kevin Reimer to the van, and by the evening Graham Buksa had joined the posse. We were all staying with MC Callahan and were treated to amazing hospitality by the Estes Park family.
The next day we agreed to drive one of the support vehicles, which gave us all plenty of time to get to know each other even better and skate some unreal Rado goodness – and, thankfully, stay out of jail, thanks to Dubes’ vigilance. Every road we skated was hit and quit, in and out, one or two runs max to keep the neighbors and fuzz off our backs.
The cast of characters that showed up for this event was all-time, and everyone chipped in to make it happen. Top racers were graciously throwing hay bales for hours. There were no biased brackets contrived to preserve “top” racers for the final heat, just a spin of the “wheel of death” to decide the heats, Buffalo Bill shotguns, snow camping at 8000 feet and hardcore rain racing. Everyone pulled his own weight. Everyone shredded. Big ups to Rado local Zak Maytum for taking the final heat, followed by a sick inside pass by Louis Pilloni (2nd) on Will Brunson (3rd) and “King Brian” Elderkin (4th).

We spent two weeks in California enjoying the sunshine and skateboarding. We
even got a chance to surf and closely explore the beauty of the state.
There were numerous people that made our trip very special. Our sincere thanks to all those who made us feel so welcomed. We started out in San Francisco and drove all the way down to San Diego. That Highway 1 is something to behold!
For those readers who live far away from California, we hope these photos inspire you to plan a visit soon. We know we’ll be back! Click here for gallery with text or read more.  The Amazing NHS Warehouse of Skate |

 Triple 8 Gear Review by Critter and Blade Sk8 Inspection Team Gallery. The CalStreets cats were quite excited about the latest shipment and I couldn't resist an impromtu photo session. So chalk it up to the Waste of Time department and did up 50+ photo gallery, and why not. They  have quite the live show following after a year of streaming the two cats every meal.
Thanks to Purina One for their favorite food (Perfect PetAuto Feeder) 6 times daily.You can buy one of these amazing quality Petfeeders directly from PerfectPetFeeder.com. Critter and Blade are fed 6 times daily AM/PM 11:55, 3:55, 7:55 Every Day Click Here for CatBistro under Black Knight Pinball.
Received my new gear from Triple 8 last week and all I can say is Wow!!
Locally I have been trying to find some decent protective gear for the late night longboarding sessions but found very cheap plastic and
foam alternatives from the local skateshops. There is no way the
el cheapo safety gear would be any help in a fall. I used to be
sponsored by Rector back in the 70's and was hoping for the same degree
of protection but couldn't find anything around. Until ... |
