Thanks for “keeping it real” Matt.

The action sports community is one that is inextricably tied to politics, and this election year it is critical that all you extreme folks make yr voice heard. We know that the current political environment is very confusing and intimidating: “Who practices voodoo? Which one of these yahoos fought a tiger bare-handed? Who is dropping a new album to coincide with Election Day?” Fear not, agr is here to tell you how to vote in November so you don’t have to think for yourself.
Skatedaily reports that Republican presidential candidateJohn McCain’s …

If generation eXtreme has learned anything from excessive consumption of Mountain Dew and television, it is this: things are much cooler when you are rolling around on wheels. This is the reasoning employed by Heelys.
 

Danny Way does some big jumps on his skateboard. But the problem with his technique is that it is too similar to actual skateboarding. It is like he is skateboarding, just doing everything bigger. While interesting, it is not zany enough to be considered eXXXtreme.
Skateboarding is coolest when: (a) in a video game, or (b) done …

First off: Comcast, you bastards, turn our internet on.
We hope you all enjoyed your Independence Day. We sure did. We spilled lots of mustard on our shirt (plural?) and threw bottle rockets at squirrels. American as hell.
What did you do?
The 4th is especially significant for the “action sports” community. Just like our founding fathers, “action sporters” are radical dudes. How extreme was it to rebel against the British? Way extreme bro.
And just like our boys and girls fighting the good fight overseas, snowboarders fight …

agoodreed went out with a friend for coffee the other day.
Why coffee?
1) Not quite late enough for adult beverages.
2) It is still cold as hell.
3) “Going for coffee” is a mature kind of a thing to do.
It has been scientifically proven that IQ is linearly related to the amount of money you spend on coffee. For example, agr orders a drip, sidles on up to the supplement-station, and upgrades the hell out of our bare bones beverage with cream, sugar, honey, paprika, and whatever else we can get our …
