TOTAL ECLIPSE

Wednesday, June 3, 2009

found this image over at enjoi, its weird kinda, in the early stages of starting a wheel company up until actually starting it for real the name of the company was "Total Eclipse". i know you dont care, and Wieger wouldn't care either even if he knew, but he dosnt know and i doubt he ever will. for good measure im throwing in this Total Eclipse literal video, just cus i was watching it at the same time as i found this Wieger image...


thank god for the enjoi site or there would never be any news on here...

Sufjan Stevens "John Wayne Gacy Jr"

Monday, May 25, 2009

Creepy as it may or may not be, hard to deny how fucking good this song is. i mean, even my mom likes this song, that says nothing about her, she is a wonderful woman to say the least, but content wise, this song isnt her gig...

felt like i should post one of John Waynes paintings along with this, just to up the creepy factor, this is a personal favorite.

doing other things...

Sunday, May 17, 2009

you know... a major part of why all the people that are on the Teenage Runaway "team" were asked to be a part of this thing is because of who they are off their skateboards. case in point, Devon Green. if you have had the pleasure of meeting this kid you know why we have his back like a mother fucker. hes just a natural at life in general, he may not see himself that way, but from the outside looking in, he has his shit figured out. if you could see the outside world from the inside of Devons mind im sure the world is a whole new thing all together, check out some of his art for a look at what may or may not be on his mind...

please visit these sites to view more of Devons art. and for hells' sake, leave Devon some fucking comments.

Saturday, May 2, 2009

maybe you saw the new issue of the Skateboard MAG, if you saw it, i would guess you saw the photo of Steve Fauser doing a little wallride, its pretty dope, well actually, its really dope. see for yourself...

picture taken by Sam McGuire.

as long as im talking about Fauser, figured i should post an ad of him that ran a bit back in the MAG as well...


while STILL on the subject of Fauser, i should mention that the graphic in the above ad is also on a shirt and wheel, the graphic, color and size were all Steves idea, so thank him if you think of it...

I had the pleasure of hanging around with Thrasher Magazines own Michael Burnett a few weeks back on a little FLIP skateboards trip around Florida. i don't see Michael anywhere near enough, which isn't surprising as i don't really ever venture out of my studio for fear of having to interact with people. Where was i? oh yeah, Burnett... epic dude to say the least, um... man, really trying hard to think of how to turn this text into something about this Congelliere photo i found on Michaels website, wait? did i just successfully do what i was trying to figure out how to do?! i think i did! here is a photo of Todd Congelliere shot by Michael Burnett that i found on www.michaelburnettphoto.com

p.s. maybe you didnt know Congelliere is on Teenage Runaway Urathane? well he is... and we couldnt be happier!

Tattoos by Horsey

Monday, April 13, 2009

Great news for all you tattoo fanatics out there, Horsey is back in town and he has set up a station over at the Lay -Z- Boyz Cove for the next month! So if you are in the OC and need a little permanent Horsey art, just give him a call at 1-800-EAT-SHIT and set up an appointment TODAY! have a look at his blog to see some recent work...

Link> Bagels and Beers


p.s. it would mean a lot to myself and all Horseys friends if you let him tattoo you, if for no other reason than the fact that hes just gonna keep tattooing himself if you don't let him tattoo you... hes on the "give myself 1 tattoo a day" program so unless you occupy his time by letting him tattoo you, hes gonna end up looking like THIS.

I was just digging around on my computer and found this photo of Richard Paez. Do you know how old this photo is? i don't exactly either, well i DO know its from like 2 years back, i don't know the exact date, but its not new. what am i getting at? nothing really, just that Richard is fucking dope... but that kinda goes without saying, this photo just hammers that fact home a little harder.

capitalizing on their lead...

Tuesday, April 7, 2009

Yup, marketing at its best... capitalizing on the #1 style of dressing (dip) in the U.S.A., love it or hate it you gotsta admit ranch dressing is the backbone of this great great great great country we live in, through thick and thin, good times and bad... ranch style dressing has been there to help this pile of states stay united. hey other countries... jealous? whatever, save it, i already talked to Teenage Runaways own Horsey and he said that all of Europe is chomping at the bit for some authentic ranch style dressing. so SUCK ONE.

this wheel is our (Teenage Runaway) way of saying "Thank You" to the late great Steve and Gayle Henson (neither are dead) for discovering that massive underground river of stagnant unrefined ranch that runs from the heart of Alaska to Santa Barbra CA. lets hope that river never drys up!

God Bless America.

Cribs: Clark Hassler

Sunday, April 5, 2009

As you know, Teenage Runaway has its ear to the railroad tracks of skateboarding news, so you KNOW we hear about it all LONG before anyone else on the www is seeing even a hint of the smoke in the distance from that locomotive of skateboard news . so naturally when it comes to to the Teenage Runaway team... "you heard it here first" as far as what they are up to!

Clark Hassler popped up in the New York Times a minute back, something about rent or New York, i didn't actually read it. not that i didn't want to, i'm just not that strong of a reader. but the photo looks good! what i think is cool about... what? wait, what's that you say? you've seen this on a hand full of other web sites already? you're calling bull shit on the "ear to the tracks" stuff? dammit... well, its like this, we WERE at the tracks, and we heard a train coming, but we ran and hid in the trees 'cus we put a grip of pennies on the tracks so the train would squash them and we were worried that the train might shoot the coins off at us, so we hid till it was over, but i would assume that if other sites have mentioned this story that it IS in fact news... right?

Count Heckula

Thursday, March 5, 2009

i lifted this from tha PLAT...

Photo by Sam McQuire "More specifically, we wondered just how different Heckula was from the real Brian Heck. 'He’s different, he was an arrogant asshole, and all of his friends hated him. He was pretty much looking to party all the time, he really had no time to do anything else, because he was too drunk or hungover to do anything.' Going on with Count Heckula’s general M.O., 'He drank a lot of Keystone Lights during the day, and fire water after the sun went down at the Colonial Lounge, Mandan, North Dakota.'"

I'm Your Huckleberry

Saturday, February 21, 2009

Not that the following info will make you like the "I'm Your Huckleberry" graphic anymore than you already do, but a little back story is sometimes good to know... the movie Tombstone is widely believed to be one of the top 10 movies of all time, and i agree, god do i ever agree. You might remember from your history books in grade school some talk of Doc Holiday, the dedicated gambler and gunman of the late 1800s, who suffered from tuberculosis which at the time was known as "consumption", which he eventually died of. anyhow, that may be a lot too much info on the subject, im just trying to set this graphic up for you, and im sure at first glance its just dumb, looks to make no sense at all really. unless you remember Huckleberry Hound from cartoons in the late 70s early 80s... well, if you were to somehow to mash up Doc Holiday and Huckleberry hound this is what you might get. A pale skinned sweating tuberculosis suffering gunslinger of the late 1800s...

Why would you mash the two up you ask? watch the clip...

I think you will agree this graphic might make a little more sense now, but most likely you are left wondering "why would so much thought and time would go into something so seemingly dumb?". well, all i can say is... get used to it, things are not gonna get any less dumb from Teenage Runaway.

blast from the past...

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

Once gain, memory is cloudy as to WHEN this ran, but it ran in the skateboard MAG. this ad features Brian Heck doing a ollie out to wedge-ride melon grab to wall dodge. the quote "THIS PLACE SUCKS" was heard out Hecks mouth many times in reference to the earth, he was also heard saying "GET ME OFF THIS PLANET" more than a few times.

Along side this ad was a little YouTube clip of Heck as well as some wheels...

P.S. these wheels are no longer around, but there is the off chance they will come back again come day. blue urethane, 2 sided print, the whole 9 yards.

Monday, February 16, 2009

A good hand full of months back, myself, Devon Green and Brian Heck thought about going to see Bone Thugs -n- Harmony play in Santa Cruz. went to the venue, but didn't end up going in, just kinda lurked around in back and listened from the outside. As you might have guessed, Bizzy Bone was killing it like always. we didn't stay too long as we got kicked out by the Bone entourage for lurking too hard by their whips... as a bonus i threw in a dead coyote photo.

where to begin?

Tuesday, January 27, 2009

if you are reading this you must already know Teenage Runaway Urethane is back in business, "was it really out of business?" you ask... not really, it more or less went into hibernation for a while. at any rate, wheels are once again being made and sold. believe it or not the wheels out right now are Series 4 (see catalog page in the menu above), that's right, Teenage has secretly been making wheels for around 2 years somehow. Series 4 is a collection of some of (in my opinion) the better graphics from the first 3 series of wheels, as well a remake of the "Dog on Wheels" graphic from Series 2 that just didn't happen right the first time...


the team has a few new additions, Nate Compher & Weiger Van Wageningen along side the original line up of Horsey, Brian Heck, Clark Hassler, Steve Fauser, Jesse Erickson, Fos, Devon Green, Kris Markovich, Richard Paez and Todd Congelliere.

anyhow, this is tough trying to wright something that actually makes sense about a "wheel" company that that is based on not really making sense in the first place, so i'm just gonna leave it at this for now and hopefully future posts will fill in the blanks, but chances are good that its only gonna get more confusing from here...
