Well Being as That...

We're making a new full length

and have been capturing some bizarre events on our company phone...




















We figure why don't we try and revive the good ol' blog again for those two kids out in Stones Throw, Minnesota. After all without us they might just be forced to skate their recycling bins and no body wants to do that anymore.

O.G.-Low

He's like the God Father of our generation in Vallejo. Or the rambunctiously obnoxious brother of Don Corleone, you might say.

G.Low -"Nigga I always drink, and when I do its sum' Rossi!" Don - "..."

G.Low in a nutshell.

Down for My Friends

It has been said that great things arrive in small packages but that has been reported to be a complete lie. Last year local, skateboarder, set designer, builder, motor biker, Jeff Palmer, brought Vallejo a garage filled with a mini-ramp. It is head to toe legit, complete with wood, coping, and transition. Isn't that all we need in this world? Just a beautifully built mini ramp set in a nice spacious garage with a cooler full of brewski and a posse of friends? Yeah, that's it. Jeff's ramp brings all the friends together and that's god damn appreciated.


Usually we don't film anything at the ramp because we're "soul skaters" but even "soul skaters" like seeing themselves on Youtube so...

Busy Being Bluesy

   Last weekend we took our tanks on a ferry out to San Francisco for the annual Bluegrass Festival. Luckily, we brought along 2 disposable cameras to capture what we hope becomes traditional madness amongst our family of homies.

Taylor, more than likely trying to prove a point.

    Having just got off the ferry, we had a warm up session on this sick little wall we found on Market street. Not much of a spot but we found ourselves trying to make it one while the pissed off nine to fivers found themselves trying to make sense of it all.

Arthur downed this 9 a.m. noseblunt pull in like hot cup of joe.

   After making it out of downtown, we strolled into the quaint neighborhood in which we had our hotel booked. Fortunately, no one had any idea how to get to Golden Gate Park so we continued to dork around, waiting for further instruction.

Checking in.

Maxwell finessed the fifty.

On these type of adventures, sketchy drop ins take very little talking into.

Bayani-Man getting into the groove of things.

   The following photos pretty much sum up what happened once we made it to our destination. Sure, plenty of things went undocumented like the nasty dirty girls asking and receiving gargles our whiskey, the epic neck snapping backflip session, and the pissed off Jack Sparrow sighting. Yes, 2012's Bluegrass Festival kicked our asses and only made us want more. Until next year! -Sincerely, Vallejo Skateboarding.

An absolute success.

Phone art discussion? More than likely.

Mr. Booshay don't sleep with a stanky tongue.

Team Zero Gravity

   Recently, I've been working towards evolving into a businessman and an entrepreneur. With so many ways to make money off of skateboarding, I've decided to stick my hand in the boiling pot of sell out soup. So without further ado, I present to you Zero-Gravity Skateboards. A street lifestyle skate company that will reach out to the urban youth who are looking for an extreme taste of air.
   Unfortunately, everybody on the team quit before I could finish telling them that Zero Gravity will be sold exclusively at large retailers such as Toys R' Us and Target. But once they found that the boards will be included with Z-G trucks, wheels, bearings, risers and grip-tape, they all begged for a second chance to be one the team.

Team Z-G's first ad!!! Welcome to the team Tyler!!!

   Expect more updates on Zero Gravity's team and their struggle to break through the atmosphere, right here on...

Sincerely Vacation

Dear Readers and Enthusiasts,

   Unfortunately the office of Sincerely Vallejo has been collecting cobwebs and mating dust bunnies over the past couple months. The company bathroom looks worse than it ever has and our kitchen is to the ceiling with dirty dishes. There's even an unidentified skeleton sitting at one of our desks.
   Yes, you could say Sincerely Vallejo died in a way. It might even fit in the same shallow grave as some of America's greatest companies; Enron, Blockbuster, Mervyn's, and yes even the great soda of our time, Jolt. However, one major difference between these respected offices and Sincerely Vallejo, is the fact that we grant our employees summer vacations (see below). This explains our office's lack of production, the herd of dust bunnies and the stack of dishes... but unfortunately it doesn't explain how homeboy to the right didn't get the memo.
   So if it ever seemed like this blog died it actually just took a vacation. Just wish Jolt had only done the same.

Sincerely,
Vallejo Skateboarding

Vallejo Romping

The Romper Room gang was a double edged sword for Vallejo. On one end they made great music for the community to bob their head to but on the other they promoted a world of crime and choas. But now they've all been put in jail or are chilling in the thug mansion SO Matt Tuite and the local skateboarders of Vallejo decided to take it upon themselves to fill their gangster shoes.



 The previous installment...


 Oh yeah and I guess there was another version of the gang in 1966?

Sincerely,
Vallejo Skateboarding
