jackassworld

So here we are on the “cutting edge of technology,” as Rick Kosick just said. I’m sitting shotgun in a mini-van headed up the 101N and I’m online and working. What the fuck. So much for the good old days. Anyway, here we are on the first (and hopefully not last) jackassworld road trip. The idea for this first originated with Wee Man and Rick Kosick as a simple skateboard park tour a month or so back, but it swiftly ballooned from there to include triple the amount of people with Chris Pontius, Dave England, Ehren McGhehey, Preston Lacy, Mike Kassak, Loomis Fall, Scott Manning and JxPx Blackmon.

Everyone met at the office this morning bright and early at 9:00am with hopes of getting out and on the road to Steve-O’s place in Pasadena (even Johnny Knoxville rolled his ass out of bed to see the troops off to battle), but we all wound up having to wait for England to show up in his creepy conversion van, which ultimately set us back a good hour from the originally scheduled departure time. He more than made up for the delay though, by skating up with a nearly full bottle of pale yellow liquid, which could, of course, be only one thing. With but a little prodding from Knoxville and the promise of becoming a Navy SEAL, Dave soon chugged the entire bottle in cradle-to-cradle fashion, thereby christening the trip in a wholly befitting manner.

Look for daily photos and updates from this trip to post throughout the week, as Josh is supposed to set up a stand-by marquee on the site for semi-spontaneous streamings—provided he can set down the bananas for a minute, that is.
