Oh Vic Park, how I miss you. New clip by Jordan Guzyk from Skateboard London (Ontario).

A quick one from One Up Skate Shop.

Great short hosted by The Skate Kitchen. Don’t skip this one!

A few months ago some members of Heyday rallied together to make a montage. They sent me the clips, I edited them together, and this is the result. The footage deadline for Heyday Collective Two is May 9th, 2008, and you’re invited to participate! More details here.

So apparently people enjoy drama more than skateboarding clips. The number of RSS feed subscribers has risen over the past few days. Well, this is the end of the drama for now. Heyday is not for sale. In my previous post I asked “What personal values have I compromised?”. The rest of the post seemed to sway most readers to accept the sale as my right (which it is). There was only one good answer to my question:

“youre a sellout because youre handing it over to skateboard noob city.”

It’s true. That would be compromising my integrity. I would never sell to Skateboard City. It’s a horrible site. I won’t go as far as to say I’ll never sell the site, but currently I have no plans to do so. I’ll get back to posting clips soon enough.

I do not understand what is wrong with profiting from my work. I’ve spent countless hours building and maintaining this site. If I no longer wish to maintain it, is it not my right to sell it? Should I be expected to let it sit and grow stagnant? Should I be expected to give it away to the visitors? Worst of all, should I be expected to continue working on it even though I no longer enjoy the work? Suppose we were talking, not of a website, but of a house. Heyday is a house I’ve planned out and constructed. I’ve thrown a lot of parties in this house. I no longer wish to keep the house. Do I owe you something for having given you the privilege of partying here?

I’m still the same person. If you view me differently, perhaps you were only using me for my house.

I’ve worked out a great deal with the owner of Skateboard City. Once my advertising contract expires they’ll be taking control of the site. I’m not 100% sure what they plan to do with it, but it will likely be merged into their current site. Thank to everyone who has supported the site through the years. It’s been great!

I have no clue what that doesn’t mean. Look! From.

I could talk about this, but you’re better off just watching it. Don’t forget.

Devin Appelo skating fast and going big.

The only DVD that’s behind AND ahead of its time! Beez 1-3 on one disc. I think if I post this Josh will send me a free copy. Watch the trailer. Visit Wiskate.
