Neue Folge Good.Old.Days!Diesmal ging's kurz um unseren gemeinsamen Vatertag – inklusive Markus' Sonnenstich, durch den er die Hälfte des Tages im „Energiesparmodus“ verbracht hat. Musikalisch wurde es nostalgisch mit blink-182 und *NSYNC – also irgendwo zwischen Skatepark, Frosted Tips und MSN-Statusmeldungen. Fun Fact: Der *NSYNC-Hit „It's Gonna Be Me“ wurde durch Justin Timberlakes Aussprache im Internet jedes Jahr zum Meme – deshalb feiern Leute am 30. April weltweit den „It's Gonna Be May“-Tag.Eine Folge voller guter alter Musik, peinlicher Erinnerungen und gefährlich wenig Sonnencreme.Unsere allgemeinen Datenschutzrichtlinien finden Sie unter https://art19.com/privacy.

In today's episode, a program that offers free admission to Vermont State Parks again this year, some residents in Plainfield are working on building dozens of new housing units and designating a percentage as affordable housing, and a trip to the new Waterbury skatepark.

Début avril, la commune de Forest (Bruxelles) a inauguré son tout premier skatepark. Un projet qui transforme un terrain à l'abandon en lieu de vie dynamique, dédié aux amateurs de skate, de rollers ou de trottinette.Mais au-delà de l'aspect sportif, un détail attire particulièrement l'attention : une zone entièrement dédiée aux tags et aux graffitis, libre et autorisée. Une reconnaissance forte pour une pratique longtemps considérée comme marginale.Car à l'origine, le tag naît dans les années 60 à Philadelphie, avant de s'imposer dans le Bronx avec l'émergence de la culture hip-hop. À l'époque, il s'agit surtout d'inscrire son nom, de marquer son passage, de revendiquer une identité dans l'espace urbain. Une démarche à la fois artistique, sociale et politique.Avec le temps, le graffiti évolue. Il ne s'agit plus seulement de signatures rapides, mais de véritables œuvres, réalisées à la bombe, au pochoir ou avec des techniques complexes. Le street art gagne ses lettres de noblesse et s'invite progressivement dans les villes.Aujourd'hui, la création de zones de tolérance comme celle de Forest montre bien ce changement de regard. On ne cherche plus à effacer systématiquement ces expressions, mais à leur donner un cadre, un espace, une légitimité.Et Forest n'est pas un cas isolé. En Belgique, plusieurs lieux permettent aujourd'hui de pratiquer le graffiti légalement. À Gand, par exemple, la célèbre ruelle aux graffitis est devenue un passage incontournable. À Bruxelles, certains murs le long du canal sont régulièrement investis par des artistes.Et puis il y a des endroits plus étonnants encore, comme Doel. Cette ville quasi abandonnée près du port d'Anvers est devenue un véritable terrain de jeu pour les graffeurs. Les façades, les portes, les maisons… tout y est recouvert d'œuvres en perpétuelle évolution. Une atmosphère unique, entre ville fantôme et galerie à ciel ouvert.Des parcours de street art se développent aussi dans plusieurs villes comme Liège, Charleroi ou Bruxelles, permettant de découvrir autrement les quartiers, leurs histoires et les messages portés par les artistes.Le street art n'est plus seulement une trace sur un mur. C'est une forme de poésie urbaine, un langage visuel, une invitation à regarder la ville autrement.Vous aimez ce contenu ?

El Skateboarding nació como una expresión callejera, autogestiva y profundamente creativa que, con el paso del tiempo, fue consolidando una identidad propia que atraviesa generaciones. Esta entrevista se mete de lleno en uno de los aspectos fundamentales del deporte: el armado de rampas y espacios para patinar, una tarea clave para el crecimiento de la escena. Protagonista de ese recorrido es Patricio Barreto, skater histórico de la ciudad, referente en la construcción de rampas y skateparks en Sudamérica, team manager, dueño de la marca Reacc y cofundador del Eh? Park de Bernal. En DQ Radio, el programa del diario Deportes En Quilmes, Pato comparte su mirada sobre la cultura skate, el desarrollo de los espacios para patinar y los secretos detrás de cada estructura que convierte al asfalto en cuna de leyendas, desde el barrio hasta los Juegos Olímpicos. Una charla con historia, presente y futuro. ¡Dale play!

Shawn Robertson is up there with the most naturally gifted athletes I've ever worked with. At 13, he was throwing an 80 mph fastball and dominating team sports, then he found inline and rode that rocketship. By the time he was 15, he left Texas on his first plane ever and within months, he was traveling the world, winning contests and putting out incredible street parts all in the name of skating. Now, the poor kid from Texas had all the things thanks to a Levis Sponsorship, working with GAP, plus all the core skate brands. Shawn had “it” and could do anything and still command respect. But an injury, combined with no insurance, forced Shawn to pivot to professional frisbee golf among other things. Fellow wild Texas skater, Ryan Dawes asks the Inappropriate Questions.

From Madrid to Luxembourg, BMX legend Viki Gómez and his wife Alexandra share their story of the sport, sponsorship, artistry, resilience and dreams for the sport's future. When you think of BMX, images of ramps, flips, and adrenaline-fueled stunts may come to mind. But for Viki Gómez, the Spanish-born, six-time World Champion in BMX Flatland, the sport is art form on two wheels. For over two decades, Viki has pushed the limits of what's possible, carving out a career of creativity, athleticism, and global recognition. That's what Red Bull spotted and why, since 2003, Viki has been a Red Bull Athlete - one of the very first BMX riders to gain such a sponsorship. This partnership also helped to catapult BMX Flatland to be seen as a serious international sport, requiring skill, creativity and practiced technique. Red Bull's backing gave Viki the chance to travel all over the world, inspiring so many young people, some who had never seen a bike before. “It meant credibility,” Viki reflected. “It gave me the chance to keep innovating.” Behind the titles, trophies, and TEDx talks, there is also a working and loving partnership off the bike. His wife, Alexandra Gobran, originally from Luxembourg and raised in Sweden, has been instrumental in steering his professional journey. With a background in law and sports management, she co-founded GG.M. Gobran Gomez Management. In Luxembourg, they've brought international projects to life — from the Red Bull 3EN1 events at Péitruss Skatepark to cultural collaborations with UNESCO and ESCH2022. In 2024, they spearheaded the UEC European Championships in BMX Flatland at Rotondes, in collaboration with the Luxembourg National Cycling Federation, the Sports Ministry, and the City of Luxembourg. Of course, as with all sports at the highest levels, injuries are ever-present realities. This has helped Viki and his wife develop their latest venture, VIKING Cykles, which merges sport, design, and sustainability, producing premium titanium gravel and BMX parts.

Baboon aka Chris Volkwine is a foreman for Pivot Customs and one of very few BMX riders in the industry. Pivot is an American-based concrete skatepark construction company. They have done over 3500 projects in 45 countries over the past 20 years. Baboon has been with them for nearly a decade. After wrapping up a skatepark build in Boise, Idaho, Baboon flew into Rochester to join the show. I have known Baboon for a long time and he's a passionate and creative rider. You may recognize him from his work building ramps as Swampfest. This was a great conversation to see behind the curtain of what goes into constructing a concrete skatepark.

Federal surveyors are on the ground in Milwaukee. It's a step toward unlocking aid for residents whose homes flooded in this month's historic storms. Wisconsin lawmakers debate a proposal to make some tips tax-exempt. And, from Wisconsin Life, a story about how a DIY skate park in Milwaukee went from an underground secret to a community asset.

Five years ago, a group of friends in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, saw potential in an old parking lot under a freeway. WPR’s Anya van Wagtendonk has the story of the National DIY skatepark – a do-it-yourself project that started out as a secret – and has become part of the fabric of the city.

Nick Parlet aka @plumbingsk8r . He is a lifelong skateboarder, operates his own plumbing business, is a content creator, and, most importantly, a father of two. Nick showed up and helped build Breaking Free Skatepark back in 2016 and has been a lifelong friend ever since. His efforts are something I will never forget, and our friendship is noteworthy. Nick and his son, Blake, can be seen in many old videos and vlogs on the BFS YouTube channel. It was awesome to catch up with him about his business and social media content creation. Nick is a hard worker, and that comes from his years of skateboarding. We have a lot to learn from his dedication.

On May 19th, demolition of the 24 year old Condon Skatepark began, paving the way for a new park. But it didn't happen quietly or without fanfare. A group of skate locals, morose over the destruction of what they view as the better park, gathered to partake in a collective mourning for the place many call home. KVMR's Kelley Rees shared this report from the scene.

Skaters of all ages showed up to Tuesday night's Grass Valley City Council meeting hoping to convince the council to halt the demolition of the Condon Skatepark. KVMR's Lydia Thomas shared this report. 

WBZ NewsRadio's James Rojas reports. 

Anyone with information about the shooting can contact the Nevada County Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Unit at 530-265-1471 or through the Sheriff's Crime Tip Form on the Nevada County website.The Grass Valley Skatepark Coalition's proposal to save the existing park can be read on change.org.

What's your guilty pleasure? Let us know in the comments!George Wang Jr. is a unique blend of talents—both a full-time skateboard coach and a professional stand-up comedian, based in Monterey Park, California. Reflecting on his journey, George often laughs at the irony of life. In high school, he was constantly in trouble for making his classmates laugh and for getting his skateboard taken away. At the time, these were seen as distractions, but little did he know that these very activities would become the foundation of his future career.Throughout his life, George worked numerous jobs, trying to carve out a path. But it was the passion projects—skateboarding and comedy—that proved to be his true calling. Looking back, he realizes that the things he did for free, with no expectation of rewards, were the real investments in his future. Today, George is not only able to combine his love for skating and making people laugh but also helps others through his work as a skateboarding coach, guiding the next generation of skaters. His ability to entertain and inspire has made him a standout figure in both the skateboarding and comedy communities.Through his unique perspective, George embodies the idea that the things we are passionate about, no matter how unconventional they may seem at first, can shape and define our futures. His story is a testament to the unpredictable, often humorous way life unfolds.Social Media: @georgewangjr___________________Music CreditsIntroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OGStingerScarlet Fire (Sting), Otis McDonald, YouTube Audio LibraryOutroEuphoria in the San Gabriel Valley, Yone OG__________________My SGV Podcast:Website: www.mysgv.netNewsletter: Beyond the MicPatreon: MySGV Podcastinfo@sgvmasterkey.com

More than 30 years ago, a group of Portlanders created their own skatepark without any permission under the Burnside Bridge. The Burnside Skatepark is credited as the first do-it-yourself, or DIY, skatepark project that sparked a wave of new skateparks being built across the country. The park turns 34 on Halloween. Jaymeer is a board member and muralist for the Burnside Skatepark. He joins us to share more on the history and impact the park has had in Portland and around the world. 

In the early morning hours of August 11, 2007, Sophie Lancaster and her boyfriend, Robert Maltby, were passing through Stubbylee Park in Lancashire, UK, when they were attacked by a group of teenage boys who beat the couple savagely, resulting in Lancaster's death two weeks later. The next day, police arrested two of the teenagers responsible for the attack, who told authorities they'd attacked the young couple for no other reason than they were dressed like “Goths.”The tragic assault on the young couple was shocking in and of itself, but the murder was made exponentially more shocking by the ages of the killers and the ostensibly terroristic motive, raising questions about the state of youth culture in the United Kingdom.thank you to the best of the best, David White for research assistance ReferencesBBC. 2022.
