Mumble Mag is pretty much my sneaky leak hub for shit I got going on, so here’s the new one. We’ll be announcing Chris Roberts to our skate team later today. As most of you know CR is amazing on the stuntwood, but you may not know that he is one of the best humans ever. Real stoked today.

Dear LA,

We are celebrating the release of our gargantuan new book about skateboarding Full Bleed, by having a one day gallery show of the photos. After the show head over to the Cha Cha Lounge for the release party! One day, two Full Bleed events!

You’ve probably heard us gabbing about it–it’s got stuff from over 60 photographers, including Spike Jonze, Tobin Yelland, Ed Templeton, Mark Gonzales, Glen E. Friedman and a bunch more people with equally recognizable names and impressive portfolios.

We just came back from an awesome week at skate camp, and in memory of Levi Brown’s fishing incident I made this cushion! x
