Jocko's Beijing Olympics 2008



Jocko Weyland is a famous skateboarder. He's in Beijing as a correspondent for VICE magazine. I've been hassling him to attend the synchronized swimming, but his return emails don't flare with any revolutionary zeal.

I wonder if he's been living too long in the land of no.

China is even more 'no-isitic' than the USA.

But there is hope.

He's planning to outdo the Adidas extreme skateboard sell-out by launching off a 15-meter highboard into a derelict swimming pool in the center of Beijing.

As always he's my hero.

He shou;d be yours too.
