:: Old Skars Tour
Update |
Posted: 9/13/05 |
It was a night for mayhem with the arrival of the Old Skars and
Upstarts Tour on the Skatopia stage. Die
Hunns were in rare form, fired up by a mosh pit inches from the band. (The six inch
stage riser made for some intimate punk, but not much in the way of stage diving.
Emaciated and tatoos, Die Hunns showed Herion Sheik is still a viable fashion statement!
The evening's rock began with Angel City Outcasts and The Black Halos followed by punk swing band Kings of Nuthin.
On the skating front, Lance Mountain is recovering from his own knee injury, but traveled
the many miles to Skatopia to check out the madness even though he couldn't skate. Duane
Peters was seen high in the full pipe tearing it up. While Brewce is still recovering from
knee surgery, son Brandon and his crew provided the night's high speed fireworks in the
Epcot Bean, aka The Punisher. They were joined by Old Skars skater Chaz Pineda ripping the
bowl as if he grew up there.
Check back soon for Pics!

Shoes |
Posted: 7/25/05 |
Brewce Martin is currently in the process of outlining a summer skateboarding program for
2006. This program would be availible to anyone and is focused at improving your
skateboarding at any level. Currently, the outline is for a two week program and will have
special guests drop in to talk about their own experiences. We're looking for interested
people to contact us. The Skatopia line of
shoes has done well in its showing in Berlin, Germany. Brewce is seeking out shops in the
USA that would like to carry the one and only Skatopia Shoe by Draven Shoes. Contact Brewce Martin if your shop or park is interested in
carrying the Skatopia Shoe. Pictures of the finished shoe should be out soon.
If anyone has pictures, video, or things to add to the site email foo@skatopia.org with the content you have. If your
band has played at Skatopia before, email us as well so we can put you on the band list.
Be sure to include what event it was.
