Mauro Ruberto Part & Interview
Crailtap’s Slice of Life with Carl Aikens
Crailtap’s eye for talent was always spot on. Follow Carl Aikens through the streets of NYC and wonder why he does not buy any grocery and who his latest IG followers are.
Chocolate Skateboards – Hakeem Ducksworth
Chocolate keeping it Chocolaty with their newest addition! Hakeem seems like he would have fit on in any era of Chocolate.
Extra Flare: Raven Tershy
100% entertaining. Raven Tershy has become one of the gnarliest skaters out there and here you can see what he has been up to lately. Lakai Limited Footwear‘s “The Flare” is out now.
Yonnie Cruz For Chocolate Skateboards
Not a secret any longer. Yonnie Cruz got accoladed by Chocolate Skateboards. That’s what you get when you work your ass off.

WEAKDAYS – 2016 Year Review
With its ups and downs I’d say 2016 was all in all a solid year for Girl and Chocolate Skateboards. Some of the good moments of the past year are composed in this review edit.
Featuring Vincent Alvarez, Tyler Pacheco, Brandon Biebel, Simon Bannerot, James Capps, Jerry Hsu, Mike Carroll, Rick Howard, Rick McCrank, Justin Eldridge, Kenny Anderson, Andrew Brophy, Elijah Berle, Cory Kennedy, Chris Roberts, Jeron Wilson, Zach Saraceno, Griffin Gass and Johnny Jones.
Weakdays – Rosemead
Fly outs, lines, back-to-backs and good times. That’s what Girl and Chocolate Skateboards made of their day at Rosemead, California. To see Andrew Brophy in there as well is maybe not enough to claim that with Girl he might have found a new board sponsor after Cliché went out of business, but still interesting enough to start a rumor.
Featuring Tyler Pacheco, Vincent Alvarez, Simon Bannerot, James Capps, Andrew Brophy, Justin Eldridge, Rick Howart and Jerry Hsu.
Jerry Hsu’s “Made Chapter 2” B-Sides
No one does it like Jerry Hsu does. This is highly entertaining footage for us and borderline crazy commitment on Jerry’s side.

The Chocolate Skateboards team spend a fun day at the Rosecrans Ditch. “I’m a ditch boy” ….. “I love ditch.”
Featuring Vincent Alvarez, Rick Howard, Tyler “Manchild” Pacheco, Johnny Jones, Sam Smyth and a special guest.
Chunk of Chocolate: NYC
We are guessing but this one is probably in honour of Keenan Milton and there are some definite highlights in this, Kenny Anderson is always a highlight, Vincent Alvarez is pretty great and the unexpected Brian Brown line is just straight gold but somehow the clip still feels kind of random. Random sprinkled with gold.
Marc Johnson at Biebel’s Park
We rarely post park clips, but for a legend like MJ we do an exception because with one of the finest styles in the world he looks just great in every possible environment.
Marc Johnson Sponsor Me
Jeder fing mal klein an, selbst Marc Johnson. Obwohl dieser gar nicht so klein war, als er sein Sponsor-Me Tape gefilmt hat. The Back Forty präsentiert eine ziemlich amüsante Zeitreise in das Jahr 1993; begleitet von Ol Dirty Bastard – musikalisch versteht sich.

Kenny Anderson KA3 Signature Sneaker
Kenny Andersons CONS KA3 steht in den Startlöchern und wer Kenny live sehen möchte bekommt BALD die Gelgenheit dazu. Bis dahin tröstet dieser Clip und spätestens die letzte Line wird dich motivieren vorbei zu schauen.
