On The Boardr with Clint Walker: Shoe Sponsors, Herpes, X Games Real Street

Published 5/27/2014 by Rob Meronek

HiDefJoe caught up with Clint Walker while we were recently in Las Vegas for a new episode of On The Boardr with Clint. Who ignored Clint's sponsor me tape? Why can't Clint get a shoe sponsor? Who is Jock and why does Clint hate him? He started filming for his X Games Real Street part just four months ago and discusses all that and more. It's a nice view into Clint's personality, too. Hey sketchy skateboard industry, let's get some shoes on this dude!

Are you ready for the Static IV premiere this Friday at Tampa Theater at 10pm? We are hyped. HiDefJoe has Yonnie Cruz on The Boardr in our new feature where he discusses the GX edits and where it's going, what it was like filming for his Static IV part, and more. I first met Yonnie in 2002 when he was just starting to get good at skating and was beyond stoked on every new thing he learned from basic kickflips to bomb drops off the ramp decks. That outgoing, excitable personality remains through today where it's nice to see matched with great style in skateboarding.

John Hill first raised eyebrows for us here when we met him back in 2010 at a Red Bull Manny Mania Contest we were running. The manny champ in him comes right out in this first trick in his new part where he's killing it like a tall version of Jerry Hsu.

HiDefJoe comes in with another episode of On The Boardr documenting the shred here at X Games Austin. I've got a few skate photos, and Porpe runs the nightlife at the Monster party where Joey Badass did a small private show that I didn't know about prior to making my decision to stay in. Stupid.

I hope you caught all that on ESPN for the Street Finals for both men and women. It was a fun and ripping afternoon of skateboarding here in Austin, Texas. After Grant Taylor skipped town and gave up his spot in the cut to Alec Majerus who had just missed it yesterday, I was certain he was going to take it today. Then Nyjah came with new tricks and of course his usual bag of destruction. Get the full week's results here. Congrats Nyjah, Lacey, and Pedro for gold in Street and Park this year.

Did you see Ben at the Van Doren Invitational in Vancouver this weekend? He blasted around that bowl like this rocket right here. Then to top it off with his unique and off the charts bag of tricks, he did a coffin to 50-50 into the deep end of the bowl! We're hyped to have Ben's Birdhouse deck in along with Clint Walker, Jaws, David Loy, and more, including, of course, Tony Hawk's boards.
