Seriously, who’d have ever thought Hammond would be the backdrop for stuff like this? We’re on the map for sure, and these are the gravy days.

First of all, I want to personally thank Jonathan Burkett (w00t w0000t) for coming through and hooking all of us up with a great scan of the Transworld article featuring the Fourstar crew traveling through the south, New Orleans and our very own Hammond included.

I just got word that the new issue of Transworld has some photos from our surprise visit from the Four Star crew. I’ll hit the book store tomorrow, confirm, and scan.

Look out for the June 2008 issue of Slap… the cover looks lke this:

…turn to page 22, and notice the “GrimCity” part:

…that’s me, your friendly neighborhood Small Time Skates webgeek. The photo was take by Small Times’ very own Gregory Tracy (you may know of him as Dead Gregory). Anyway, I’m not putting a readable version of the article up yet because the magazine is currently on sale and we want you to go out and support the mag. They should be sold at anywhere where there’s tons of magazines.

This is a student film, created by Brandi Matthews and Stacey Winokur. It almost looks like a news broadcast… anyway, we’re pretty stoked on the way it came out.

Remember that we owe skateboarding everything, skateboarding owes us nothing.
