Two full decades after Circle Jerks released their iconic punk anthem, “Wild in the Streets” gets a star-studded reissue. The cast includes big names like Tony Hawk, Lance Mountain, Christian Hosoi, Dashawn Jordan, Kevin “Spanky” Long, and plenty others. Director Atiba Jefferson describes the release as “live VHS footage from 40 years ago mixed with new VHS clips of current skaters and legendary pros.”

He continues, “Adding to the effect, we had them skating boards and only doing tricks from 1982. This was my way of preserving 40 years of punk rock and skateboard history.”

The release of this seamlessly remastered music video gave Circle Jerks the once in a lifetime opportunity to get back on the road for the first time in 15 years. And wow, what a reintroduction!

Jamie Foy, Jake Hayes, Guy Mariano, Mike Anderson, Christian Henry, Dylan Jaeb, Vincent Alvarez, Adrian Adrid, and Franky Villani graced the grand opening of the Dickies Fire Station Skate Plaza with a demo.

The skatepark in Fort Worth, TX, took a decade in the making. The project started with a group of passionate Fort Worth skaters, with Magnolia Skateshop at the forefront, raising $80,000 to build a one-of-a-kind skate plaza and concrete pump track.

Near Southside, Inc. also pitched in and it was able to secure a $300,000 donation from VF Foundation, the nonprofit arm of VF Corporation which owns Dickies among other brands.

With additional support from the City of Fort Worth, the project was made possible. Now skaters of all levels can enjoy this awesome new spot in the city!
