A SHOW CALLED KICKS.

TUMBLR STORYBOARD: BREAKFAST WITH KREAYSHAWN

Editor, director, plus she’s her own boss, Kreayshawn sits down with Tumblr to perpetuate the oddball image for one of hip hop’s favorite white girls. Since adopting pre-teen pro skater Baby Scumbag as her new son (and one with which she discusses smoking weed openly), Kreayshawn has put out a new album and is looking to extend the fame that “Gucci Gucci” brought her. Being an LA resident from NorCal myself, I hear plenty of critique on the White Girl Mob and their hijinks, but it’s hard to deny that the rapper’s music is catchy as all hell and her personality is nothing if not large.

KILLIAN MARTIN STATIONPARK - ABANDONED STATION SKATE VIDEO

Killian Martin grew up with a passion for surfing that could not be realized, with no ocean within six hours. With the absence of the means to realize this passion, the now world-famous skater combined two of his other intense skills in gymnastics and skateboarding to create a unique and irreplaceable style. The professional athlete is a skate video director’s dream come true, and he has created many well-done and artsy videos, including his recent visit to an abandoned waterpark outside Los Angeles that took the internet by storm thanks to the help of filmmaker Brett Novak.

This time the skater visits another abandoned skating playground in the historic Park Station, and director Juan Rayos was there to capture all of the action in a beautifully-edited style.

His latest blading video sees him and his riley bunch of friends shredding the streets of Atlanta, GA. Made possible by Rollerblade, the video by Think Tanker Lonnie Francisco displays what style can look like on four wheels.
