With a nod to Jeremy Klein, the WKND boys hit the road Hook Ups style and put together a launch-ramp-infused tour, complete with a box for the top of the van and Willy Santos in tow. It’s called skateboarding. It’s supposed to be fun.

The WKND crew took a U-Haul full of ramps to the desert and things got weird. They may not have located Animal Chin but they found Josh Beagle so we’d call it a unanimous success. Warning: there will be nudity.

The stars came out for the LA premier of “Saturdays,” Birdhouse’s first full-length video in ten years. Bros, babes, the Bird, proud parents and Clive Dixon turned pro! Where were you?!

The crew hopped on a train to Vigo with the temperatures still scorching. But nobody hid in the shade. Good times by the sea. –P-Stone

With temps hitting 100 in Madrid, the crew kept the heat in check with a steady diet of cold ones. Featuring Duffy, Decenzo, Goikoetxea, and many more.

During the early '90s tech-skating explosion, Willy was right there in the mix helping push skating forward. Jamie Palmore introduces a classic part from the 1993 Birdhouse vid.
