My friend Goofy loves Halloween, it’s his favorite movie and his favorite Holiday, so when he saw the Shelloween board that I’d made he jumped at the chance to make a little video for it. We posted this on instagram but it got cut off for some reason right before the end and the titles, but here’s the full length one for your eyeballs. Board is sold out at Baker Boys, but in stores now!!
Holiday Catalog Drop
Heroin Holiday 2023 catalog just dropped last week and it’s a good one!! Debut Swampy Pro Model, Savages pro series, Curb Killer 5, Bail Gun Gary 3! Our widest egg yet besides the Eggzilla! The Wide Boy coming in just a little over 10.75 wide! Curb Crusher from Barf Comics, and the Anatomy is back this time on a gold foil! Oh and can’t forget the Shelloween special board!
SWOLAN
We screened Swolan a week ago for the first time for a private audience at Baker Boys Distribution, Swampy went Pro, it was a great time. There’s been some shop screenings this past week too, and we did a night at Unmodern on Friday too which was a blast. We were trying to release the video on YouTube on Saturday or Monday, but we’ve unfortunately had a delay due to some music licensing. It’s all going ahead though, just means we have to wait for some paperwork to come through before we can share this one with you. It’s with the wait. Like I said, thanks for your patience!
Dead Dave Live From California
This August, Dead Dave flew out to California to skate with us for nine days. It was epic, besides the 114 degree heat every day. We had a blast, skated, ate good food, did a few day trips, and got loads of footage. I was up at my cabin a couple of weeks ago and sat down and edited it all in to “Dead Dave Live from California”.
I edited the whole thing myself from the ground up, I feel like it really gets across the fun that we had during that week. Come back soon Dave,, we miss you!
Check in
Hey, so you’re on the website? Wow, that’s pretty novel, it’s all Instagram, Tik Tok, Twitter and Snapchat these days, at least according to the kids. I can’t really get my head around Tik Tok or Snapchat, so don’t expect much from me there, Twitter too, I just go on there and get annoyed by politicians mainly. Instagram is good though, I mean the ads these days are a bummer, and you can’t really check anything out without someone shoving sales down your throat. Well, I’m glad you’re here, I used to update these things quite a bit, but it’s been a while I think, just up at my cabin and thought I’d take a bit of time and update a few things here and there. It’s December 9th, so our Egg-Vent calendar is in full effect over on the old Gram. Worth a look if you’re into egg shaped skateboards at all.
So what else is new? Well, I’m chipping away at some video stuff while I’m here, there’s a couple of things I’m working on at the moment. More news soon, but I’m very happy with how they’re going. Had a setback the other week when my desktop computer died and I had to get a new hard drive, I lost 9 years worth of stuff. Of course it wasn’t backed up, don’t be ridiculous. Ha ha. So I’ve really been dealing with the aftermath of that and trying to catch up on a few projects.
Heroin Spring is looking good and being made now, that launches in February. I’m finishing up Summer now and I’m really stoked on it so far. Anyway, that was it really, check the Egg-vent calendar on instagram, keep an eye out for video news, and look after yourselves. We live in weird times.
New Catalog is up in our “Stuff” section!! Launches officially at noon today!
Halloween Special Egg!!
Coming soon to a store near you!!
El Huevo
A Cinco de Mayo special!! Introducing the Huevo! Get em while you can.
Congratulations Aaron Wilson!
Aaron Wilson was one of the first American riders that I sponsored when Heroin Skateboards first came over here from the UK.
Aaron has filmed a bunch of great parts with his friend John Danielson for his video projects over the years, he has a full time job and is raising a family of three, yet he’s never taken his foot off the gas when it came to his skating, and in the past year seemed to have been pushing himself harder than ever.
I’m very stoked to announce that he’s the latest rider with his name on the bottom of a skateboard. Congratulations Aaron!!
