marygvr

Mary Osbourne is dead sexy. And she can surf hella good too! Anyway, she decided to roam around GvR last weekend and interview all sorts of people. This batch of interviews is the result. Take a few minutes to watch and enjoy. Pretty entertaining if you ask me. Plus, we all need to come together... the skaters, the surfers, the boys and girls... you know, unity. Or... well, something like that.

TransWorld has parts 2 and 3 of their GvR coverage up now and Skatepark of Tampa just uploaded all of their footage as well. Filmer Sara is on it!

GvR Webcast! Saturday Results! Signings! Injuries!

by: Brink | Sunday, October 7, 2007

shecksigngvr

Hot damn it was a long and crazy day yesterday. I was still worn out from my old man sesh with the SPoT homies on Friday, so I kicked back and just straight LUKRED THE SCENE!

Its official, Ryan Sheckler is a heartthrob! Our buddies at Focus Board Shop across the street had an etnies signing and girls were lined up around the building, screaming and yelling. Kyle Leeper and Ronnie Creager were there signing as well, which helped kill some time for Ronnie since he folded his ankle in practice yesterday and knocked himself right out of the contest. Sucky since he's helped the Goofies kill it a few times already.

ronniekanye

But that didn't stop him from hitting up the Yeah Yeah Yeahs concert and GvR party, which was ridiculously fun, by the way. More on that later, as it's time to get down to the Hometown Heroes finals and onto GvR '07!

Check all the results from yesterday's action on the GvR site and don't forget to watch the webcast!
