I dont know for certain. BUT my guess, and an idea thats looking more and more probable, is that he faked the hack for three reasons. one, theyre about to come out with a reconstructed version of the site. two, a supposed hack generates internet buzz which means even more publicity for them. Three, mike mo v koston is a key game and they can build anticipation and get people drawn in to the batb by putting it off yet another week. the berrics wins in every way.
My friend Hunter Gray asked me the question that makes up the title. After telling him, I decided it would be worth putting on here.
Yes, it contributes the buzz and inadvertently gives them publicity. BUT, it's kinda an important happening because even I was waiting for the games this week.

Really Honestly
I've kind of stopped giving a fuck about the industry. Anyone that still checks this page would probably have noticed this by now, so this is more or less a blunt and obvious F.Y.I. Speaking of F.Y.I., if you haven't watched the Digital dvd of the same name lately, please go find yourself a copy along with a fat hot dog wrapped in melted cheese. You'll thank me.
But that little tangent aside, and beyond all the obvious anti-berrics rants I could have made in the past month but decided the cardio-workout it provides my feeble blood pressure wasn't worth it, I've decided I'm going to run this blog pretty much however I feel is most appropriate in the moment.
Today, is fun day. Much like my past three or four weeks living at Anti-Gravity, I've been watching internet clips only if they look like they'll be halfway inspiring.
I have a couple finds related to this. First off. Some of you may have heard of him a while back; he won a DVS contest and got flowed their shit for a year or something like that. Transworld ad with a rock tre flip, etc etc, other cool shit that a geek skater like me finds awesome. So this part, filmed in Hawaii, really hyped me up this morning. If you've seen his other footage, it should be fairly obvious that this is not the epitome of what this little Honoluluian is capable of. But it's sick regardless.
Also quite cool but on the geeky side, this dude named Kyle Kraus that frequents this forum where I usually go to be mean to morons and also happened to discover Jason's skating. Basically, Kyle does whatever the fuck his acrobat body wants to do, and this video is another fun as hell clip to watch. Lots of crazy pressure flips, which I expect from him, but also some sick sal flips and body flipping and just general killin it.
Lastly, this montage is a really good concept, edited and mostly filmed by my french friend Aymeric Nocus, known to most on the internet as MRCK. His idea was to put together a universal clip, using footage from LA, SF, France and god knows where else. and it came out super sick. It's a tad on the long side clocking in at 15:00 but it's definitely worth the watch. Peep it! Then go skate til your legs are dead.

VX-of-Doom
Last park clip you'll be seeing from my dear old VX2000. Thank God. Sound is glitchy as shit, so hid that...... CCD's freakin out, so my usually lazy methods of editing had to include color correction this time around.
Featuring some rippers! Sorry there's no lines, per se. First anti clip i've ever made without me personally in it. Also the first one I've filmed entirely by myself, as a result. Fuggggg it.
Featuring:
Tyler McCoy (lens-hitter)
Matt Clarkson (360 guru)
Justin Hobbs (tech man)
Chris Vaneeklen (banger)
Londen Lassiter (late shuvver)
Grant Amspacher (park rat)
Neilson Thornton (green bean)
Cody Bamburg (film-fearer)
R.j. Venters (box-steezin)
Josh LeRoy (with a big R)
More later this week.
