And I gotta say it’s looking pretty promising. The trailer is fun and it’s kinda got a Toy Machine vibe…Big tricks and big slams too.

He’s got a super-part packed with almost 7 minutes of footage. Rails, ledges, flip tricks, he’s got whatever you need. Big things are coming for Auby. 2012-05-08T13:49:13+00:00 http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/alec-majerus-volcom-enders/ http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/alec-majerus-volcom-enders/#When:19:39:16Z Alec Majerus and Volcom just put out a quick part that is as one commenter said, “a part that was all enders.” Keep an eye on this dude. He’s already am status on Flip, which is no easy feat. 2012-05-04T19:39:16+00:00 http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/tyson-reynolds-friends/ http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/tyson-reynolds-friends/#When:16:04:11Z The Portland crew cut up some clips from this past Winter at Skate Church. Tyson Reynolds, Michael Davis, Chris “Compton” Nichols, Mikey Calcagno, and Allen Greenman all made the cut. And just a side note, Mike Davis will be on the road again! 2012-05-03T16:04:11+00:00 http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/238-episode-2-dirt-wad-by-adam-mills/ http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/238-episode-2-dirt-wad-by-adam-mills/#When:19:58:43Z Adam Mills has a crazy new edit out. There’s nothing like gapping to a rail after having to ollie over a curb first… 2012-05-01T19:58:43+00:00 http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/portrait-of-devin-abner/ http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/portrait-of-devin-abner/#When:19:54:46Z Just discovered a humbling brief portrait on Devin Abner. It’s six minutes long, has plenty of skating and discusses his challenging childhood. Despite being homeless for a year, Devin pushed through the years on his skateboard. It’s not every day you get a skate video like this. 2012-04-19T19:54:46+00:00 http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/steven-farmer-mag-minute/ http://www.hhskate.com/index.php/site/blog/steven-farmer-mag-minute/#When:20:34:33Z You’ll want to check out The Skateboard Mag’s latest Mag Minute with your boy Steven Farmer. A lot of the footage in the edit is from tour last summer. BGPs for sure! Steven rips. Can’t wait to see his new stuff!

Ready? Go! Wet plate photography has been around since 1851. But because of the danger and evolution in photo processes, wet plate photography lost almost all of its popularity until fairly recently. One such photographer, Ian Ruhter converted a truck into a mobile dark room and camera. He recently published photos of Levi Brown using the wet plate process. Ian also published an absolutely incredible video of his latest project. I highly encourage you to check it out below. SILVER & LIGHT   The top photo is from unblinkingeye.com and has a wealth of more information on the wet plate process. 2012-04-05T14:18:28+00:00
