When I was in grade 11, me and my jock friends (there were only 4 skaters in my school and none got laid) had an extra locker commandeered from the school, which had belonged to a kid who was tragically killed (mowed over by a truck) a few weeks before.
Someone from our crew removed the bolt keeping the locker shut and within a week it was filled to the brim with liquor galore.
We called the “locker” the “Power Palace” and it was our official un-official jock bar.
We had laminated membership cards with “punch” hole drink credits and sold drinks tickets to non members at 3 for 10$. Somehow this lasted till 1 week before end of class, when my boy Stefan dropped a bottle of Ouzo right when he was pouring himself a drink … right the fuck in front of a group of teachers.
He was lucky to even graduate and took the heat for the whole group. Don’t snitch wiggaz! Don’t snitch!
Anyways I don’t think the gang of goons in the YouTube video below ever worried about being kicked out before graduation.
The Valoiz Boyz are to fun what murder is to rap (!?).
Check out their YouTube channel …

I love how the website is offline due to “non payment or abuse of our system” … Is that the actual situation or is it these guys idea of a marketing campaign … either way it’s brilliant! http://Valoiz.com
Anyways I don’t think flip kids are gonna be all running out to get Valoiz Boards … but I know a shitload of heads who are down to skate a Mike Townsend eight and a quarter, I mean why the fuck not?. Hopefully dem dudes will roll by the NDG shop where we has gots a couple in stock … thrown in on some Bones 56s(abec 7s foo’) and some 169s and you’re bowl (fucking) riding.

I love watching this video. The true spirit of skating – get the gang together, have a good time skating – and try not to kill the dog…

Hey Mike sold a ton of Ex boards to street kids. This graphic does not have the same attraction though. Good luck Valoiz Boys!
I had never noticed the Barry & Marc skull posters in the video before.

Dude I’d go down on a fucking homeless person for an Ex board if there are still some in circulation … I gots the New Era Blue Buddha … but it doesn’t compare.

I’ve got a Blue Buddha on my wall that Mike helped me out with so long ago it seems. That was a big pig board which is prefect for me. Since we are speaking of New Era, R.I.P. Simon; I miss running into you.
