“There’s one more thing…it’s been emotional.”
Harald Reynolds Skating Videos
I recently moved from Milwaukee down to Chicago. In the midst of a national uprising and public health crisis, I definitely got really emotional. Now as I settle into a new life, and as I write this, scramble to get myself ready to start my new day at my 9-5, I’m feeling a lot of things. But the beauty of skateboarding is that it challenges your emotional and physical responses in the most intricate ways. Not to get too heady but shit hits different, ya know?
I initially wanted to wait to post my video until the right time but you know what? The people need something to make them smile, yell, gasp, or downright loathe at the 11 minutes of footage the boys and I compiled in a matter of 3 months.
I present to you…”Emotional Fashion.”
Which Area Code Has The Highest T?
Bradford Bishop Skating Videos
Over the last few months there has been a lot of debate about which local area code has produced the most well rounded skateboarders. Well, I’m here to stoke the flames of this debate in the form of photographic evidence over the last few months. I must caution, as I’m only one man with one camera, the below evidence is not all decisive.
We will begin with area code (262)





Ok, damn. Didn’t realize 262 kinda goes until I uploaded all the above photos to this post. Let’s not forget that this is an ongoing debate though! Here’s a couple photos from Brett Favres favorite area code, (920)!


Now we may only have one photo for the next area code, but the man is a beast and some would say could likely push his area code to victory on his own. Below is (608)

Now it’s time to travel to a couple area codes that are near and dear to my heart. As a former FIB you could say I’m a little biased but as I’ve said before, this is a on going debate! Let’s start with someone else who is more than capable of pushing his area code to victory all by his self. (779)!

And here are a couple guys who I think may help put their area code in the running for top code, (847)!


And as this is a website based out of Milwaukee we travel back up north to the one and only (414).


I hope you find the provided evidence helpful in this ongoing debate. Thanks for your time.

But have you ever actually crossed the threshold?









Playing in Traffic Episode 5: James Rewolinski
Harald Reynolds Serious Art, wiskate.com
I’m pleased to bring you another episode of Playing in Traffic. I was very fortunate to interview James Rewolinski, owner and operator of Labor Skateboard Shop in NYC. James grew up in Milwaukee, skating as we all normally do, then went on to work at multiple established skateboard shops around the city. After obtaining his Bachelors and Masters degree, he moved out to NYC, where he worked countless jobs, surviving the 2008 recession, all before opening Labor in 2012.
In this episode, we talk about growing up in Milwaukee, skating with multiple crews, slamming, working in shops, going to school, moving to NYC, opening Labor, keeping his business running in the midst of a pandemic and much more.
