HEYDAY
SKATEBOARDING

We’re moving to a dedicated server. Anytime between now and Sunday things might be a little fucked up around here. Things should be back to normal (except faster and more reliable) by Monday.

Quicktime Video Compression With MPEG Streamclip is a quick article that will teach you how to effectively compress your quicktime videos using a free program.

I’m looking for a new skateboarding clip to host as a featured clip. I’m also looking for quality pictures to add to the gallery. If you’ve got either let me know:

With Wordpress. We just completed the switch and fancied up with a new design. Some things might be a little buggy around the site (still need to fix up the archives section and move old posts), so let me know if you see any problems. Also feel free to try out the comment feature. Right now it’s open to the public with no login required. We’ll see how that goes and make changes as necessary. Enjoy!

Once this post goes live I’ll be on the train to Toronto. I’m going there for a week to visit some friends. Should be a good time! I’m setting the blog up so that it will update everyday on its own. Hopefully all goes well with that. If there are any broken links or weird happenings on Heyday during the next week, now you know why.

Check out the 3 winning entries. Congrats to the winners! Thanks to everyone who entered. I’ll be posting about a dozen of my favorite entries in the skateboarding pictures section this week.

There are only a few days left to enter our skateboarding photo contest. Be sure to submit your entries before it’s too late!

Pictures and a video clip have been added to the instructions to help you learn how to varial kickflip.

There’s a little over 15 days left to enter Heyday’s first photo contest. Submit your best skateboarding picture and you could win 1 of 3 One Year Pro Accounts from Flickr. Complete details here.

Thank god it’s almost Friday. Did I mention that Heyday is getting a new design Friday? I don’t think I did. Well it’s happening. Then I can take this current design and pretend it never happened.
