Thank you to the person who made this call.

Congrats to Shane for his skating in Denmark. Way above impressive. Also a shout out to the hard skating from Beach. Matt is far above impressive as well. Stay tuned for full video parts from the whole team next year. Also stay tuned for a special video part to be released this October. It’s going to be fun. New product next week!!!!!!! Stay tuned!

Im on a plane typing this.

Beach, Staba and Oneill off to CPH tomorrow for a little shred. A shitload of items will be added to the store for a little clearance. Stay tuned for some sale or some shit. You might want to keep your eye out for some ads as well since we now advertise in THRASHER.

Putting the last finishing touches on the new line. More shirts!!!! More Boards!!!!!! More Wheels!!!!!!! More everything!!!!!!! Some nice looking stuff. Beach, Shane and Brad will be in CPH next week. Then Nuggy is off on a Nike tour after the contest.

Interview.

Thrasher has a little thing up on Nuggy.

For some reason I think Shane god robbed. I’m pretty sure he got screwed. A few people told me something happened. At least there’s some footage.

Plunketts on this elwood tour. CPH coming up where Beach, Staba, and Shane will be. Also working on a little euro mission for august. Stay tuned.

I want to give a big thanks to Transport, Primitive, and Utility for hosting Shane and these events. Thanks to all the kids that came out! Many more events ready for this summer so stay tuned! Also if you didn’t have a chance to make it out to see Shane you can still swing by any of the three shops and get his new pro models and other Skate Mental shit. Were also going to be posting photos from these events in the our press section this week so keep an eye out for that.

Holding it down in Holland.

Congrats!

Just wanted to give a big thanks to Chris Middlebrook for his work on Shanes part. Great job!

Thanks to everybody who got or is getting Shanes Skate Mental part on the Berrics. Shane worked his ass off filming this, the filmers worked hard, and everybody at the Berrics and Skate Mental put a great deal of work in as well to promote this release. Bitch all you want about $3 but that money goes to Shane for his work. “They should be giving it away for free because it’s promotion for his companies” Ahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha. No shit it’s promotion but tell that to Shanes body 10 years from now. “Everybody else films parts for their company and don’t get money”. Well maybe times are changing? The Berrics release of the part was 100% requested by Shane. Not Berra or me sitting there trying to fuck some kid over and make a quick buck…or three. The Berrics delivers 100% free content besides this. Bitch, bitch, bitch but when you look at the big picture the people complaining are a very small slice of the pie…very small. Thanks to all the pros who took time to watch the part and give their opinions. I respect alot of these pros responses. It was hype but it was also honest. Between Fourstar, Nike and Skate Mental you will be seeing alot of Shane for years to come. Congrats Nugg. You deserve your name on a board. Come out next week and meet Shane!

nike.

Shane in SF hitting the streets. Also in my driveway hitting the bench Timmy O and I stole from the movie theater 7 years ago. Jessie got the other one. Saturday should be interesting. Shane’s skate mental part will stoke some people out…for sure. Get ready for the Motta video this fall!!!!

Five more days. I think i watch the part every other day. Makes you wanna be better.

Check out plunkett and some bros get all bro.

go to biebelsworld.com

If you’re in San Mateo this Saturday. Check out the Atlas & Nike SB best trick contest.

We added some photos of Motta and Plunkett in the press section.

Watch Shane spin his board around.

Right above the news.

I think we have room for another AM.  Think we might need another one this fall too.

One of my alltime favorites!!!!! Ray is the fucking man!

A Skate Mental rider is now featured in that game of skate over at the Berrics. That battle shit or whatever. Stay tuned as he beats everybody…no joke. Holy fucking Pat Duffy. Yeah Duffy!

Elwood has a edit of their time in PHX. Check out Plunkett.

For some reason I thought there were going to be some more episodes? He’s got some good Savier stories and we had some fun filming for those TWS videos. He’s got a shit ton of stories from Girl trips as well. I suppose if you ever run into him you can buy him a beer and ask him for yourself. Maybe he’ll write a book someday.

Shane has an above what’s above average interview in the new theskateboarmag. While you’re in the magazine isle look next to you and there should be a Thrasher. Buy that too. It has a spread of Motta doing a nollie hard revert and a spread of Plunkett doing an ollie up clipper.

Check out Motta doing a lipslide.

It’s official. John is now riding for SUPERbrand Apparel.

I forgot about this thing. Brian is special.

Enjoy the day.

Store is up! We will be adding stock frequently so keep checking back for more sale items. All items in the store are from back stock and past seasons.You can go to your skate shop and buy the newer stuff. Either way you’re going to win. Feel free to email .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) for any questions regarding the store.

Had a chance to hang out with Mark last week. It’s been awile. Great dude and bonkers on a skateboard. Werd life.

Hunter got 13th at the Tampa Team Manager Contest this weekend.

One more day left at camp Berrics. All I can say is that dudes are going ape shit. M-F of non-stop skating. A nice break from M-F rain. My weekly thanks to the shops that carry Skate Mental. Support your local skate shop!!!!!!!!! Tune in for Tampa Pro.

Dan is officially on Elwood. Click the banner to your right and check it out.

Seriously. Got informed by the wonderful guy who designed this website that the store is near completion. I might even buy something. There’s a few kids out there I wanna give boards to. Were going to have a spot opening up on the team here pretty soon. Omar is a great buddy of mine. i’ve known him for a long time and am very proud of what he’s done for himself. Buy his Nike Shoe.

Feast your eyes on this people. Stay tuned for World Tour Dates.

Looks like these things are being used as intended.

Sorry about the lack of updates and store. Motta has a new clothing sponsor. Stay tuned for that press release. We’ll be doing a team thing where we all go to this indoor skate place and skate shit. Then they put it on their site and kids beat off to it into a sock not even thinking about the fact that their mom knows what it means when a sock sticks to itself. Stay tuned for that. The sore, I mean store is almost fucking done. Really sorry for the lag. Everything will be cheap bro. I love sponsor me tapes. Brad will be spending a week at Mike Mo’s house soon. That should be a fucking trip. Full documentation for sure…right Vince! Looks like were going to have a new pro. Wonder who it’s going to be? The next few months will be interesting. ALL NEW BOARDS SHIPPING!!!!!

Mikes the best.

I haven’t trolled youtube for awile. Luckily Motta is at my house right now and showed me this guy. Fucking fuck.

This fucking guys life. Just watched Beach on the Captain and Casey Show!! Gavin might have to film a video part with all the coverage he’s been getting lately. Thanks for the flip-flops Tim.

My friend Tony is doing some cool stuff over at SUPERbrand. They’re building the skate team as we speak, stay tuned.

Thanks to Crossroads and everybody who came by to check out our new stuff!

We’ll be at the Crossroads show this week.

Besides the random dudes jerking off and terrorists.You can get girls to flash their tits and maybe more. Not like I know. Thanks to Hanni and Huf. Chatroulette

One of the best motherfuckers ever.

Go over to NIKE and check out part two of the “Don’t Fuck the Midget tour filmed and edited by Jason Hernandez. Call make a fucking faggot. Not like I haven’t heard that one before.But going on the road with the these dudes is fun as shit. Great friends and good times.

So the store didn’t launch last week. Sorry. Next week?

Vote for Shane over here. Pretty much a no brainer.

Preparing for his next show Ed Templeton loses much sleep making sure it all arrives unbroken and safe. I love Ed. Looks like he’s still managing on finding photos of good looking men. The first photo of the post displays one sharp looking dude as well as “The Steamer”

Go over and check out some sequences of Motta, Plunkett, and Nuggy at atlantahatesus.com

Were getting everything ready to launch the store next week. We’ll be offering stock from previous seasons discounted. So if you didn’t get a chance to score something from the past you can get it now…if we have it still. Stay tuned.

Pretty cool.

Go over to Nike Skateboarding and check out part 1 of the “don’t fuck the midget tour” filmed and edited by Jason Hernandez.

Skate Mental
San Francisco, Ca

Skate Mental would like to thank Girl Skateboards for giving us a home for the last three years. But it’s time for the little bird to leave the nest and fly with its own wings. It has been a blessing and we appreciate the hard work from everybody in the entire building. We will be migrating sales and operations to Northern California where the brand is designed and developed. Same Skate Mental…different location. Visit the new skatemental.com for everything Skate Mental and crailtap.com for all the other stuff like HD, that Couch, and Kostons fucking face.

To answer some of you guys emails…our wood will remain the same.

You can now check out our new spring line!!

Go over to thrasher and check out Shane Switch Backside Flip

Skate Mental will be at the Agenda Tradeshow Jan 8th-9th. Come check out all the new stuff. If you can’t make it check out our site Monday to see the new line.

Check out Sam. Sam is hands down one of the best humans on earth.

New sequence of Shane added to his rider page! Check it out! And please check out the newest update on mottas blog. Oh my! Complete with video! Oh! And I typed Shane Oneill on youtube and his part in the shitty video I made came up. Sorry about that one guys. I wanted to make a shitty video and I succeeded. I won’t edit videos anymore. Save that one for people who actually know how to do it. Both him and John have great parts in that crap of a video though.

In case you haven’t seen the last TWS video. Go grab it and check out Matts part and also check out Matts rider profile because he has an interview there now and a photo of what it’s like to live in Portland in the winter. Skate Mental United Nations at the Berrics? New AM? New PRO soon? Who’s it going to be?This year is going to be filled with some surprises…all good ones. 

Reese Forbes and Skate Mental are no longer. We would like to wish Reese the best of luck going into his new venture. We would also like to thank him for his time with us. Love you Reese.

New photos added to Shanes rider profile!

Still some time to get some of the Nike SM stuff. This place has some. The Berrics has some too! But what doesn’t the Berrics have.

Happy New Year. Alot of good things ahead for this year. Stay tuned. Go grab the new issue of theskateboardmag so you can see a crooked grind double page spread featuring Plunkett. Shot by the RAT. This motherfuckers coming back. I love this guy too.

Watch Dan and Jake get stooey on the new Sunday mini. Plunkett is a maniac. He’s getting a blowjob in the mountains right now. If you’re in Buffalo you would be a retarded person if you didn’t check out the shop. Like dumb retarded.

Pretty mind blowing that my buddy Jake Donnelly doesn’t have a shoe sponsor promoting his far beyond talented skills on a skateboard. Somebody is sleeping. Actually somebody is asleep!!!!!! Wake up!!!!!!

Today is dedicated to these guys. Check out Bri-Bri in Sf.

Have fun today.

If you click the mini window with the twitter icon it will take you to the Brad Staba twitter. After christmas i’m going to have the link changed so it directs you to the SM twitter. Until then here it is. Also if you have a dull moment in your day you should spend some time here.

(All this is being typed wearing a head mounted microphone so I can get as close to feeling like this guy.) Here’s some stuff that’s better than alot of other stuff. These would fit nice is a stocking.

If you didn’t get a chance to get one of these boards then you still have a chance. These places have some!! Skate Warehouse Exit Real World Tactics Val Surf

First week of January and you guys will be looking at a refreshed product line. We’ll still have some older gems in Limited quantity for those who missed out. Also the contact page is up for any shop that wants to carry Skate Mental that doesn’t already.
