There is no denying that Chad Muska became more avante garde as his style and personality progressed in life. His pro sneaker from Supra, Skytop, is reflective of Muska’s journey as well. This fourth installment is a mixture of styles from the past, the present, and the future, as Muska describes it. Combining elements from Sci-Fi films, basketball shoes, and high fashion footwear, these shoes make for an interesting design. Best of all, these are still intended to be skated in, making these a super versatile sneaker. EVA heel cushioning absorbs shock from ollies over huge gaps or stairs, and the inner-sock bootie holds the feet snugly in place. Lastly, the shoes come with a detachable ankle panel that completely changes the appearance of the high-top sneakers. Check out the detail images in the following pages.

If you’ve been looking for a really unique house in the Las Vegas area, a recently listed one that was intentionally built 26 feet underground may fit the bill. Constructed in 1978, the kitsch-tastic (think Brady Bunch or Madonna Inn style) house at 3970 Spencer Street boasts several bedrooms, three bathrooms, two hot tubs, a swimming pool, a putting green, faux trees and flowers, a dance floor, and lots more. From the street, the property looks like a standard house set in the suburbs but this subterranean home was designed so a family could live for up to a year after a nuclear blast. Las Vegas Review-Journal and Vegas Inc have more details on this super unique home.

Tyrone Williams performs wheelies, jumps, and other impressive BMX bike tricks on a Citi Bike in this video made by ANIMAL New York.

There’s a lot of talk about the limitatons of Citi Bikes: they’re heavy, people say, they’re slow, and they’re more suited to boring workday commutes than cycling that’s exciting in any way. In the spirit of testing those supposed limits, we asked street BMX king Tyrone Williams — co-owner of Chinatown bike shop Dah Shop and Animal Bikes team rider — to take one for a spin and show everyone how it’s done.

We already know that all self-respecting adults should use toilet paper, but since respect isn’t enough to stop the adult babies from choosing to wipe their ass on “pre-moistened” and “flushable” wipes, maybe this will: according to a report in The Washington Post, wipes are responsible for a 35 percent jump in jammed pumps and clogged pipes in the Washington area over the last few years.
