Vintage Skate Stuff: : Val-Surf 1988 Fall/Winter Catalog

Part 5 of a look into a collection of various skateboarding memorabilia from the late 1980s and early 1990s.



This is a mail order catalog that Val-Surf sent out sometime in the fall of 1988. Val-Surf is the first Mail Order Service in the Industry, sending out catalogs since 1963.








That comic book "Road Rash" (listed above for $2) will be scanned soon.


There were coupons on the back cover that were cut out and used.

O.G. Jam Series - Stop #2

Bennett Harada
Stop #2 of the 2015 Old Guys Jam Series was this Saturday. It was held at The Cove Skatepark in Santa Monica, CA. As the series' name implies, these are contests for the old guys, ages 30 and over. Each stop is broken down into a couple age divisions: 30 - 39, 40 - 44, 45 - 49, and 50 & Over. It's a pro-am contest that's free to enter, with skate legends like Eric Dressen and Micke Alba competing. There's also an open Girls Division too.
