clarification by execution. if you're editing video footage of skateboarding, watch this, steal techniques and prosper. shit is stale right now. points verses reality and the balance being mediocre at best is killing our culture. skate or don't. i say five more years with all the bullshit then it will go back to just weirdos being weird with only weirdos watching. purity through plurality. or singularity. grammar is a construct designed by the culture that oppresses us. fuck spelling. class war now.

PLYMOUTH — Seven years in the planning and two months in construction, the town’s first skatepark opened here on Sunday, to the delight of dozens of skateboarders, inline skaters and bicyclists who filled the place and entertained themselves and spectators with a variety of thrilling moves.
Located on Green Street Extension on land that is being leased to Skatepark of Plymouth, Inc., by Alex Ray, founder of the Common Man family of restaurants, the state-of-the-art concrete facility is being built in three phases.
Phase I, which includes a kidney-shaped bowl and a street course, was begun in July and was completed earlier this month.
Phase II entails expanding the street course to its full size, adding things for beginners and younger users, while Phase III would see the construction of a 60-foot long, three-foot wide "snake run"
Open daily, weather permitting, from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., the skatepark to the south has a nearby “graffiti” park where visitors can “tag” two concrete columns and, one day, it will have a “pump track” to the north for hearty bike riders.
The skatepark — which is expected to cost $170,000 when it is fully built — has the support of the Hawk Foundation grant, which was founded by skateboard legend Tony Hawk, as well as the Town of Plymouth, the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce, the Plymouth Police Department and the town’s public schools.
On Sunday, the skatepark also had the backing of Matt Jones, a skateboarder who came up from Nashua for the day and who declared that the long ride north was “well worth it.”
Nashua has a similar skatepark, said Jones.
Jones and his friends Steve Roberto and Zack Noel are not only skateboarders but also partners in “Fix the Metal,” a company that sells T-shirts and other “lifestyle” apparel geared for people who like to shred.
“It’s good that the town finally built a skate park,” said Jones, adding that the facility will be well used, judging by the response to it yesterday.
Mike Currier, who is president of Skatepark of Plymouth, Ltd. and a social worker at Plymouth Regional High School, said more than 100 people – ages ranging from under 10 to over 30 – put the skatepark through its paces on Sunday.
“Anything on wheels can use it,” he said of the skatepark, adding that its users, over time, will ultimately decide how it evolves.


RIDING THE RIM:
STEVEN ROBERTO of Nashua rides the rim of the concrete bowl at the Skatepark of Plymouth, which opened Sunday to critical and popular acclaim. The skatepark is open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., weather permitting, and is located on Green Street Extension.

the mutants

live at the deaf club SF 1978. whoever made this video should have used a younger looking picture of the band for the backdrop. aged punks just look bad. oh wait, i am one. fuck.

wendy o

a shit stain on the panties of life. who wrote this shakespeare?

media blitz

hit up the new plymouth park on sunday. the bowl is sick. always good to hit some new pool coping. great opening festivities too. dj drez was spinnin' the ones and twos for the red bull and some guy made a bunch of kids climb in the bowl so he could throw products at them. FTM was also interviewed briefly by a reporter from the laconia tribune or some shit so look out for that.

some bikes

rolled through CT and RI with a huge crew saturday. good times.

FTM stoner day

i should be skating right now but some of my friends decided to enjoy a fun little game of disc golf and didnt even think to invite me. thanks a lot you fuckin chads. frisbee is fuckin gay anyways even though im wicked good at it and i would've fuckin smoked your asses into disc golf oblivian.

stoner bowl jam HD

wolf came through with the HD from the burnouts in the ground fest a few weeks ago. can't keep a stern stoner down.

mark hudson

skating by skaters.

believe in not believing

if you know then you know. if not, then you're on the wrong fucking team.

isle of tip

goth is the new black

the cure rules. oh you dont think so? wanna fight about it chad?

FTM too trife friday

im trying to get back on these flyers. been sittin on this piece of trife and a few others for a minute now. i have to crank out a ton of art this fall. life grinds you down from time to time but its important to keep those creative juices flowing otherwise you end up dead.

ruby tuesday

FTM in maine again. we hit lewiston, portland, bethel and kennebunk. we would have gotten a few licks in at south paris too but the park closes at 2pm on sundays and apparently we were the guys who left beer cans all over the place the last time we skated there. wasn't us bro.

sharkbite

why so serious

this was fun. im really digging the vids comin out of this wisco/milwaukee scene. these dudes seem pretty bro and whatevs. fer sure.

help a brotha' out

A fundraiser is being held at Granite Skate indoor skatepark for a friend and OG EB Nashua employee Kevin Nimick on Sunday September 18th. Come skate from 6pm-9pm and help us raise money for some of his medical bills. $15.00 to skate and all proceeds go to Kev. Raffles and contests all night.

new brigade

iceage is good. this isnt their best song but it is clearly their best video.

stoner bowl jam

skate weezy

Lil Wayne Skateboarding at Skatepark of Tampa from Rob Meronek on Vimeo.

lil wayne fuckin killing it at skatepark of tampa! looks about as good at skating as is he is at rapping!! i wonder what was in his cup...

my foots fucked

but i'll come down for the lifestyle.

that's so raven

the only thing worth watching in the x-gaymes. oh, except for moto x high jump and the one where the rich guys drive their toy cars wicked fast. really cant get enough that shit. sick bro.

43

this looks sick. not that i ever read skate mags anymore other than the occasional lowcard but i really dig this format and art based content. sort of reminds me of the transworlds i would get when i was a kid and spike jonze was shooting photos for them and it was actually good.

snuggle bandit skate camp

not sure if mr. roy is technically allowed to be in charge of a group of kids but fuck it. dude is the fucking man.

lost dog

typical mike froland move.

paging omar hassan

fuck these guys

are these fucks ever gonna get their shit together? i know the U.S. government and its buddies have really made a mess of an already fucked up situation over there but shit like this is absurd. just another example of how religion is fucking stupid and how humans manipulate its teachings to justify murder. i know it sounds racist but at this point why not just figure out where these taliban idiots are living, you know the C.I.A. has got that shit, and blow their asses off the map. whats gonna happen? the afghan and pakistani governments are just gonna release some statement condemning the attacks then immediately drive to the bank and cash another multi million dollar aid check intended for building roads and infrastructure that will instead be used to buy another rolls royce and more guns for islamic retards like this. fight war not wars.

no such thing

thank you patti.

more like chad angel

shit foot on a board with no griptape eh? i got a magic trick for you, die.

nashua

dirty shire straight street in this bitch. i love seeing spots that i skated years ago get re- invented (ala colin's blunt on the library fountain). nashua skate scene will never die.

beach blanket bong out

shitarded

FTM friday 7/15/11.

localism

hate on the blue steel all you want. more runs for us.

liquor slicked highway

FTM crew went to maine and hit three parks on saturday. good time at lewiston but our session at south paris got cut short by a park monitor who looked suspiciously like jimmy buffet but without the good vibes. after jimmy locked the gates on us we hit the road for portland. skated there in the dark for a while, sipped on some suds and bitched about how stupid the bowl is. all in all though it was a great day.

eb nashua gets thrasher's "shop of the month"

well deserved fellas. stay evil.

jonny utah

zoo's got spots

gillabration

body bag

go skate day

not as intense as last year but still so fuckin' fun to be out enjoying the weather and BBQ'n with the homies. i didnt really film anything good. i had a perpetual "wrong spot, wrong time" thing goin on durring the sesh but wolfe came through with the HD:

sick shit. also check out E.C.S for coverage of the granite skate contest and some photos from new park. they got this gem of me:

trife life killer. thanks guys. skateboarding rules.

the big takeover

FTM shirts are in!

"sweet leaf" shirt front.


"sweet leaf" back. listen to motorhead.



and the "merman" graphic which we think will be an instant classic. FTM gear is available now exclusively at Eastern Boarder Nashua and we are going to set up an online store at some point but in the meantime if anyone outside of NH wants one just email me at fixthemetal@yahoo.com and we can work something out. FTM crew por vida!

go skate day 2011

next tuesday june 21st. theres a contest thingy at granite skate and we'll be BBQ'n like fuckin' bosses at new park. earl at eb nashua is gettin' some t-shirts printed up and there may or may not be some FTM product dropping that day too so show up and get a taste of skate life. or just rot in your shitty scene with the rest of the corpo dickheads.

whores drink for free

hasn't it been raining a lot? shit sucks.

R.I.P. seth putnam

epic dude, complete scumbag and lead singer of the ridiculously overlooked and influencial boston band anal cunt apparently died of a heart attack a few days ago. it sucks that these guys never got the the respect they deserved especially since a lot of bands just totally ripped off their whole shit. heres a few tracks:



i think they may have been the only band who went on record as far as wanting to kill 311. history will remember them for this i am sure.

goodnight sweet prince.

lifestyle imagery

receding scumline

23.000. Gallons from Six Stair on Vimeo.

saw this on the blood blog. six stair always brings the realness. it would be nice to find a pool owner around here as enthusiastic as the guy in this video. or one that just likes to drink as much so we could make an easy getaway.

fix the metal

major power moves being made in the darkest recesses of the garment industry as we speak. stay tuned.

see you in hell

these dudes probably would have been as big or bigger than iron maiden if they weren't so fuckin' ugly.

obama osama

so pumped we got bin laden! the war on terror is finally over! oh wait, not it isn't. fuck.

FTM friday. maybe.

the weathers lookin' a little shitty again but we'll just wait and see. i just hope no one gets stabbed this weekend.

sorcery

i guess this was filmed for some contest deluxe was doing but i don't really know. that drop in the beginning though is fuckin craze. the rest of the vid's got some fun skating with posi vibes. seattle seems cool now that all the grundge-ies have moved on and got corpo jobs.

new burzum

it's really fucking good. still getting used to the more viking-esque vocal parts but i'm sure they'll grow on me.

fuck religion

seriously. who fuckin' buys into this crap anyways? oh ya, like 48% of our retarded country.
