Lacey Faker? Hmmmm..
I am a big skate nerd. So I recognize everyone. How I even came across this little snafu is when I was looking at this year's Tampa Pro list of pre-registered people. Alot of the names I knew, some I didn't. Leticia Bufoni is a name I noticed. Never heard of her. SO I youtube'd some footage of her.
Pretty good. However, towards the end of her part, I noticed at trick (2:55), there was a suspicious hardflip in her part. That hardflip looked oddly familiar. I've seen that before..
Kinda ironic.
Now, I'm not dissing either girl. But damn...usually the last couple tricks in a part, are your enders and should be yours. Maybe they're homies? I guess only THEY know. Can't knock her hustle. And if she WAS trying to perpetrate, that's a pretty good twin to mock. THey almost look alike. Both girls seem to shred...But I thought Lacey deserved her props for such a picture perfect hardflip...
Get'em Girls!!

THINK it's time for a change...
Manny is a human wrecking ball.
I've known him for going on 10 years, and he's NEVER ceased to amaze me and the people around him. A demo machine, rail chomper, and a positive attitude, Manny is a real beast. Leaving the flowgram of DC a while back for a solid spot on Axion, an anticipated part for the Famous video, and winning the Black Box Crossroads contest, Manny is on track for success. Rumor has it, he's left Think...and low & behold his Twitter confirmed it. He's gonna be an amazing addition to whatever company gets him.
After paying dues for so long, Manny's time to shine...is right now.

PLAIN & SIMPLE
This is just a snippet of the things Mark Plain has filmed...but it's a classic nonetheless. Everyone who comes over always asks where to get a copy, and truthfully, I don't even think Mark has one of his own. So i did the next best thing and posted it up online.
This is a prime example that sometimes, all you need is imovie, good skating, some old music, and a vx....Skateboarding needs more little raw throwback gems like this. I don't wanna cry after watching a skate video...2011 people, let's keep it a little more raw.
