Realized that I was sitting on some sick photos of Andy Crash, the proprietor of the infamous Warehouse, so I decided to unleash them on the unsuspecting public.
Andy about to do what he's been known to do. I have no idea who the hell took this.
Only Andy could make a carve on a vert wall look this fuckin tight. Tyler Stabile gets photo creds for this.
Frontside Air from the quarter to the wall. Tyler Stabile snapped this one too.
Since we're just a buncha Ugly Motherfuckas, I'm not ashamed at all to admit that this is a video grab. Back lip on the Ugly Ramp during it's infancy. I probably filmed this.
Skating at the House Real Big with the Sickhouse crew, the other main skate gang in this one horse town. during more innocent times (i.e., not Ohio winter). Filming by Tyler Stabile and Sleezy Bone, Edit by Tyler Stabile.

Nelson Swindella made this edit recently, it's a mix of super old footage and some more recent offcuts. Hope you fucking hosers enjoy it... or die trying.
Alex Pinkerton is a dedicated individual. After a nasty little kerplunk on the skate, he ended up with this beauty, and in true Pinkerton fashion, nipped that shit in the bud. P.S. I'm not sure why people as "hesh" as we are were watching the extra features in menikmati at the time.
At least, on the Interweb. We've been doing this shit forever as the header clearly states... This blog is essentially a portal for videos, photos, and lifestyle shots of sensitive acoustic guitar playing, all featuring the members of Ugly Skates, a Northwest Ohio based skate crew/semi-real company. Most of our shit is pretty hoopty at this point, but it's kosher since it fits in with our general Aesthetic: Being the hugest burnouts in skating. I promise this shit will get more interesting as time goes on and my drunken Luddite ass figures out how to use this shit a little more proficiently. In the meantime, here's a short vid to sate you ADD webheads and your need for instant gratification. Big ups to Friend of the Ugly, Tyler Stabile, for filming and editing the montage, and also having two of the gnarlier tricks in the vid.
This is some older footage from 2008 back when our personal HQ/zombie bunker/rural palace had an indoor mini, the OG Ugly Ramp. Unfortunately, this one's trashed now, but it has been rebuilt at the new Ugly Compound, still located in Jerry City, Ohio.

Ugly Skates is an Ohio based skate crew/skate company focused on piling out, skating shitty mini-ramps, getting introspective, pounding tallboys, bonelesses and overall gnarness. We "release product" every once in awhile, painted decks, custom belt buckles, and other sundry awesome goods. For the most part though, we just skate our asses off and are broke assholes with a shitty camera, so we figured it was time to inflict some feelings-hurters on the Web.
