Goddamn Caruthers. Getting that one in right at the end.
So the contest basically should have been called "Let's see how amazing Caruther's entries are." because when I discussed the winner with Newt and Boosh, the unanimous decision was basically "Duh."
So congratulations Caruthers! You are the fucking man. I really can't even pinpoint which of your shops are the best because they are all just too fucking amazing.
Not many people noticed, but The Situation came through Manny Mania in NYC and killed it...
Greasy boardslide on the flat rail...
The Situation reps Jersey hard...
Getting in a (balanced?) nose manny before the shenanigans and rain set in.
The Situation couldn't believe the amount of shit Darren was talking to lil' Stevie...
Mike stays true to his meathead roots and jumps in, even when it's not necessary
Looks like Berra may have a guest role on the Shore...
After the shenanigans at Manny Mania, The Situation headed over to Pop's woodshop.
I don't think Pops was feeling the unannounced visit...
Pops wanted to work, The Situation had other things on his mind...
The Situation quickly grew tiresome of Anthony's bench crafting, and proceeded to subtly express his feelings towards his work.
After coaxing Pops out of his woodshop and into the streets, a good session was had by all...
The situation just got his first ad in the new Thrasher plowing through a front 5-0...
He doesn't give a fuck that this trick has been ABD a million times at this spot since the early nineties.
He's more concerned about all the stacks of overly embroidered and bedazzled Ed Hardy gear he's gonna get in his next package...
It looks like The Situation is upping the insanity with J-Rog...
Biebs landed the front 180, but got broke off on a switch ollie over Lutzka, Dyrdek and TK.
The Situation comes correct and shows them all how it's done...
But I should probably give some honourable mentions here.
Ilovecotg had a good concept. Al Borland did well. Tatertots had some decent ones. Teddy, the loop and the Thrasher cover were really funny. Flapjack. grinding up Leo was super funny. Buddypal's Dylan cover. Brent's barrier smush. Chris' old school shit was funny. Magic Pizza's Frankie Hill cover was super underrated, and also if I had to pick one shop that came close to Caruthers' domination, it would have been this one:
That one is the true spirit of Slap.
But yeah, none of you have shit on Caruthers. So Caruthers, PM me (and I guess Newt and Whiteley) your address and start watching the mailbox. Hope you like metal!
