Jordyclot's Crailtap Frontpage Highlights

So the week is up and our bumbaclot bwoyy Jordan deOliveira's guest frontpage postings are finished over on the tap.

I had hoped that Jordan would represent Hawaii well, and I guess you could say that he did a pretty good job.

The photos that he posted had to be ones that he took himself, so Jordy dug deep in the crates and came up with three Hawaiian related out of the five days, so he pretty much fulfilled his hometown obligations I guess.

Today's pic is a shot of Dog The Bounty Hunter's office door. I guess this counts as Hawaiian related but Dog is a fucking kook and Jordan could have done better but I suppose it could have been much worse.





Also earlier this week Jordan posted an A'ala Park photo!
Well, one of Danny Hamaguchi doing a wheelie on a moped there, anyway.



Nice form.

Also of note was this fine picture of some of Jef Hartsel's uncut sticker stash.



This shit right here is beautiful!
Some of those stickers are straight up worth a lot of money, not to mention just plain DOPE to have in your possession at all and Jef has just sheets upon sheets of these gems, some of them even unfinished or misprinted!
So jealous of that dude's sticker box.

Anyway, pretty good showing this week.
Stoked that Jordan is so well loved by everybody in the industry and consistently recognized as a valuable employee and all-around great guy by the Girl/Chocolate family.
Great work, Jordan!

Jordan deOliveira Guest Frontpage Poster on Crailtap

LORDAMERRRRRRCY!
Just saw this immediately right after the last post and thought it was definitely deserving of its own shine.

Jordyclot is your guest frontpage poster over at Crailtap because obviously he is awesome and most likely their employee of the month every month!



Go check it out over there every day this week for more from the mind of the super bumbarastaclot that everyone in the skate scene here on Oahu loves and misses dearly.

Yoon Sul Photography

I don't know if you're familiar with the work of Yoon Sul, but he's one of the best dudes out there shooting photos in the skate game today.

His site BigPoonSkids is flush with all kinds of ill images, most interesting to me of course are the photos that feature L.A. locals and former Hawaiian residents Jordan deOliveira and Matt Chaffin, both of whom kick it with Yoon and his crew on a regular basis.

Also, Yoon has a bunch of his work featured over at The Berrics, where his stuff is showcased in a section called Yoonivision.

I have found a bunch of pics featuring Jordy and Lil' Shmatty both in action either skating and/or raging with bros like Daniel Castillo, Lem Villemin and Joey Brezinski just to name a few.

Peep:

























Lordamercy!
Always super stoked to see local braddahs representing and doing it big on the world wide web.

Enjoy The Silence

Well, if you've been digging the last few montage type videos that have been posted recently, then this shit right here is the complete antithesis of them.

Everybody it seems is rocking HD cameras these days, and maybe someday I just might step it up and get one but until then I'm gonna keep it low-def and grimy.

I have filmed a lot of crap over the past couple of years with my Canon digicam and editing I must say is pretty much a pain in the ass, so this time I decided to put this shit together with no music and leaving only the sounds of skateboarding and life in general.

You can bust your own soundtrack to this if you want, but some of this stuff (Like Sean Reilly's specialty cocktail monologue) is best enjoyed a cappella.

HD From D. Lee

WHOA.
This is some real hi-tech shit right here!
A new montage with some serious ripping going on courtesy of a local band of brothers and impeccable filming and editing handled by the one and only Darin Lee.
Peep it:



This dude has been sitting on some seriously gnarly fucking footage!
Did you see Danny's backside tailslide backside flip out on the high ledge at Makiki?
Flabbergasting, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Guys are putting in fucking work these days!

Darin is going to be posting more of what he's been sitting on real soon so stay tuned, trust me it's hot fire!

In4mation Presents LRG's Give Me My Money Chico Video Premiere

Stoked to see another long-awaited skate video about to be premiered here on Oahu, this time it is the much anticipated first full-length feature film from LRG Clothing entitled "Give Me My Money Chico".



The dudes from In4mation are throwing the premiere on Friday May 14th and it's being held at Ka Restaurant, which is in the old E&O Trading location at Ward Centre.
This spot is right next to the Borders Books and Music on the second floor if you aren't familiar with the area.

Not really a fan of LRG's whole vibe in general but they do have some sick dudes on the team that I am definitely feeling like Karl Watson, Chico Brenes, Jack Curtin, Rodrigo Tx. and Adelmo Jr.

Also really curious to see what this kid Andrew Langi is gonna have for this video, kind of feeling his ATV steez and skate everything approach, more ams should be following this guy's lead and stepping up their all-around skills on every type of terrain.

If you haven't seen the trailer for the video yet, you can check it out right here:



I will definitely make a serious effort to make it out to this, not only for the video itself but for the simple fact that my boy DJ TOAD ONE is going to make a rare appearance and will be spinning some shit that will no doubt rock the fucking house!

Picture 4
This dude knows how to play some goddamn records and has been doing it for a long time.

The party is going to be a good one, and the shit is free!
Be there, aloha.
