A memoir-in-essays about how skateboarding re-defines space, curates culture, confronts mortality, and affords new perspectives on and off the board
Chipping a board—where small pieces of deck and tape break off around the nose and tail—is a natural part of skateboarding. Novice or pro, you’ll see folks riding chipped boards as symbols of their stubborn dedication toward a deck, a toy, and aging bodies that will also reach their inevitable end.
In Chipped, José Vadi personalizes and expands upon this symbol. Written after finishing his debut collection Inter State: Essays From California, Vadi used these essays to explore his own empathy in aging, and to elaborate on the impact skateboarding has had on culture, power, and art. From tracing a critical mass skater takeover of San Francisco’s streets, to an analysis of visceral ‘90s skate videos and soundtracks, to the solace found skating a parking lot during a global pandemic, Vadi expands our understanding of the ways skateboarding can alter one’s life.
Vadi acts as a “ethnographer on a skateboard,” writing, living, and animating an object, likening the board and skate ephemera to the fear of being discarded, wanting to be seen as useful, functional, living. These essays analyze the legacy of seminal texts like Thrasher Magazine, influential programming giants like MTV, and skateboard artists like Ed Templeton. They imagine jazz composer Sun Ra as a skateboarder to explore sonic connections between skateboarding and jazz, obsessively follow bands, chronicle tours, and discover the creative bermuda triangle Southern California suburbs have to offer. Chipped is an intimate, genre-pushing meditation on skateboarding and the reasons we continue to get up after every fall life throws our way.

The best quality and most reliable diaper for toddlers!
Size: 4T-5T, Unit Count: 99
So far Huggies Pull-Ups have been the best for our toddler before we venture out of diapers! The quality is impeccable. Now when it comes to size, I preferably go up a size for our toddler, they seem to fit better and give my toddler comfort. These pull ups will last throughout the night without any leakage and we’ve had very few to none rashes. Also one of my favorite thing about the Huggies Pull-Ups is the way they make it easy to put and take off with the option of either literally pulling up which helps get these toddler’s ready for under garments but it also comes with the side attachments. So what put these on however works best for you!

Great diapers
Size: 4T-5T, Unit Count: 17
These pull-ups are great. They’re very soft and have a cute little Minnie mouse print on them. They’re great for the price. Luckily my daughter only needs them for bedtime, but they’re great because she can put them on and pull them up by herself. The brand is great, I’ve never had an issue with this brand before.

Our Go-To Pull-Ups for Potty Training
Size: 2T-3T, Unit Count: 124
We’ve tried a few different brands during potty training, and we always come back to Pull-Ups. They fit my daughter really well, are easy for her to pull up and down on her own, and hold up great overnight without leaking.
The sides tear easily for quick changes, which is super helpful when you’re out and about. The designs are also cute and helped make potty training a little more exciting for my toddler. Definitely a staple in our house during this stage!

Luvs pulls up are the best
Size: 5T-6T, Unit Count: 48
I love this brand. It’s very secure, and the adjustable band makes it easy to tighten without taking off my child’s pants. It doesn’t leave an odor, the texture is smooth, and my child is always comfortable. The price matches the quality, and there’s no leakage or spillover. Overall, it’s very durable. Make sure to have it correctly fastened because the Velcro can leave scratches on child skin.
