TAKE A PUSH AND TILT ONE BACK.
Dave Ashley - Thu, 16 February, 2012

Two things that I love dearly in life, my skateboard and my beer. I have been involved in both activities for well over twenty years and counting now. There is nothing like a cold beer after a sick ass session on your board with the homies. Period. That is what the TiltMode Army is all about, tilting a few back on or off the board, talking shit, and basically just forgetting about life for a while and just have a good ol’ time no matter what the hell you are doing. Now the boys have a vimeo channel so you too can now enjoy the fun.  So, crack open your adult beverage of choice, sit back, relax, and get some laughs in. Click here to go to the TMA vimeo page.

The Truth Tells The Truth
Kevin Susienka - Sat, 4 February, 2012

10 years ago, Paul Pierce had to play every game of the NBA season with 4 guys on his back. He carried his team through one of the darkest periods in Boston Celtics history. Now that he has a great supporting cast, he still plays like he has the rest of the team on his back, which is why the Celts are contenders. Click on the image above for a recap of his heroics last evening against New York and a special prediction from The Truth in the video section of ESPN’s post entitled “Pierce, Celtics Hold Off Knicks”.

THA MAN K.G.
Dave Ashley - Thu, 2 February, 2012

It may sound silly, and some folks downright clown me for it but one of the many reasons I relocated here to Massachusetts is The Boston Celtics. Yes. I have been a die hard fan for over 20 years now. Being from California the amount of ridicule I have received for being a C’s fan and not a Laker fan, Warriors or even Kings fan is legendary. I have even got into some heated donnybrooks in bars due to folks big mouths’ talking about my beloved green.  One of my favorite Celtics is the man Kevin Garnett. Call him whatever the fuck you want, dude is the man. Period. Killing it since he got into the NBA straight from High School, dude will be one of those illustrious few to make it into the hall of fame when he is done playing. Its good to be here in Massachusetts. Its even better to be a Celtic fan. 

GO C’s!

Allister Lee x ATLAS
Yong-Ki Chang - Wed, 25 January, 2012

I’m really stoked on the Allister Lee x ATLAS decks.  Each of the two decks in this artist series is signed and numbered in an edition of 50 and comes with an original piece of art, shrink-wrapped with each deck.  Get them at Atlas Skateboarding in San Mateo and check-out the fine installation that Allister and the Atlas crew setup in their shop. Up until March 12, 2012.  Mahalo to Allister and to Ryen, Mike and Nick at ATLAS!
