Zines: Chaos Ninja #2

One of SAUCE skateboard zine's favorite contributors, Oby Berry, is back with his own skate rag, Chaos Ninja #2 "The Skateboarders guide to survive 2012"
With the demise of the printed SAUCE, Oby has taken upon himself to keep the reality of printed material alive with this "Survival Rag" You know Oby from his cleverly funny as hell writings such as "Urinal Showers", "Honkey Tonk Halfpipe", "Sk-8 or Nap" and many others. Oby continues his Red Neck philosophy in this crucial and informative guide to get those of you who shred through this 2012 year (which I heard was supposed to be the end of the world. Again?!?!) This rag is Sleezy Steve approved so you better get some!

Even On A Dreary Day, Skating And Quality Friends Keep It Shinin' Inside..

Dog Chark, Junk Jam, Tucker's Ramp, Chicken Ramp, Eternal.

I got a text last night from SAUCE's own Kelly Baker the other night that had this picture of what he's been doing lately. Concrete sculptures..... This one is so rad! It's a lamp that pays homage to pool skating. But the best thing about this lamp is the history within that piece of coping that tops it. This is a piece from the "Dog Chark" ramp in Tempe, Az. The ramp eventually got torn down, but the peices have been re-used in other projects involved with heavy ripping. When they had the "Junk Jam" in Phx. The coping was used on the vert quarter pipe which saw some heavy rippage during the event. And when the event was done, it was applied to "Tucker's Ramp" till' it met it's demise a year later.
Then eventually it arrived at our house, and adorned the infamous "Chicken Ramp", where it continued to recieve a heavy beating from skaters all over. We beat that shit up!!!
When we moved, we gave a peice to all that had history with this coping, and Baker decided to pay homage by topping this killer lamp he made. I know it's silly to be hyped on an inanimate object like this, but I love that it has seen so much creativity over the years, and it continues to shed light on an otherwise dark time. Yeah Baker!! Keep on killin' it!!
McNair, I still have your piece. The two of you will be reunited eventually.

NW Motorcycle / Skate tour with IRON MAIDEN

It's pouring rain at this moment in the NW and all I can think about is riding my Motorcycle to any of the many skate spots up here to shred and hang with the homies!! Well summer will be here soon and coming with it is IRON MAIDEN!!!! Lets shred the NW on Bikes (and cars, trucks, and vans), and boards with the homies and end it all on a good note in Auburn, WA Monday July 30 with IRON MAIDEN!!!! The plan is to roam around the NW's Puget Sound and skate, camp, party, and have a good time this summer!! All are welcome. Tickets for Iron Maiden go on sale March 2nd or 3rd. Lawn tix shouldn't be too spendy and if you're riding an MC the gas money you'll save will buy your ticket to Rock!!
Get those bikes back together and lets roll!!! No bike, No prob - Drive a car!!

Cody Boat

I've known Cody for quite some time now. We lived one neighborhood away from each other in Tempe, Arizona and would frequently skate ABCO with the homies. We met probably around 1986-87ish as he was better known as "The G&S Wonder Kid" He musta been around 9 years old when riding for the same company as Neil Blender, Chris Miller, Billy Ruff, ect....
Yup, we grew up in the Launch Ramp days doing 360 Judos, Huge ollie airs, Methods, Japans, and yes.....We put that ramp up the the walls and got down! Ah the good ol days! Well, 25+ years later, we still hang and skate together, play some music and put that Ol'Launch Ramp up to the walls. Sure, we've gotten older and life around us has changed, but one thing that hasn't.......Is the good times being had on a skateboard with a good ol launch ramp, some curbs, and the homies on a lazy "Slappie Sunday" I am fully convinced that the skateboard is the key to staying Strong, Healthy and Young!

Here (25 or so years later) Cody "The CREATURE Skateboards Wonder Dude" Boat hits the wall with a B/S Air off the edge Portland, Oregon 2012 "Yeah Boat!!!"

Bikes and Boards go together like PB & J

Bikes and Boards are the BEST combo! Both posses the freedom of individuality, thrill of life and death situations, both fun when playing in traffic, creativity, and best of all......NO RULES! Portland's weather for February has been nothing short of KILLER!! Lots of rolling both bikes and boards so far! In most cases the board gets priority over bikes, but this weekend was a little different as our weather here in PDX has been exceptional and it was just a great feeling to get out and session the streets on my "Iron Shred Sled" (along with lots of other Portlanders) and make a couple visits to this years "The ONE Motorcycle Show" to drool over the collection of sick Bobbers, chops, vintage, cafe racers, wild, and historical bikes. Now in it's 3rd year, Portland's "The ONE Motorcycle Show" is growing in popularity as the collection keeps getting bigger and better so they have extended the show to two full days of gathering, drooling, viewing, drinking, lurking, and riding. A blast and good for inspiration to get out there and do what feels good, Build and Ride! Check the photos of some of the neat motorbikes that were present and don't forget to wipe that drool from your face.........
Now strap your board to your bike and get out there and Roll Free!
