Jeff King puts together a dumpster-diving dream team and trolls the alleys for shreddable junk, and Neil Heddings, Adrian Mallory and Shuriken Shannon feel the salvation. Then King hits the seedy backstreets of LA with Brett Miller and friends for some makeshift BMX Action. Next, we get wind that Transworld publications is vacating their 20-year home, so King and Heddings show up to help them move out Built to Shred style. Kristian Svitak, Ben Raybourn, Danny Scher, Brad Herrera and many more seize this once in a lifetime opportunity and shred the building inside and out. For this week’s Hammered ‘N’ Screwed, King employs Chany Jeanguenin and Kenny Hoyle to help him convert an old bed frame and coffee table into a steel-edged shred ledge.

A 20’ tall genie is salvaged from a carpet store and the sign he proudly displayed for years is replaced with a manly steel ledge. King and Bergthold set out on a mission to have three unforgettable sessions with the giant genie: 1. Wake skating with Nick Taylor — King builds a plywood pool and shoots Nick across the genie ledge of doom and into a man-made lagoon. 2. Snowboarding with Signal and Omatic heads at June Mountain — the 20’ genie heads up the hill to bridge more giant gaps with twirling thrills and spills. 3. Skateboarding with Bob Burnquist: the genie is erected atop Bob’s 30’ mega ramp quarter pipe creating the world’s first 40’ tall genie ledge! Bob gets busy and ends season 2 of Built to Shred with a BIG BANG!

Jeff King and crew get a full access pass to the Camp Pendleton Marine base to shred a storage yard full of decommissioned tanks, transporters, dump trucks and howitzer guns. King enlists skateboarders Pat Duffy, David and Ethan Loy, Kyle Berard, Neal Mims, Curren Caples, Moose and Clint Walker for an all out battle. The one of a kind largest tank ever built, gets a serious wallride session and then the BMX brigade of Ryan Fudger, Christian Rigal and Daniel Dhers fire off some flips, whips, stalls and grinds on some heavy metal machines. Pat Duffy is recruited for the Hammered and Screwed instructional to show you how to build some serious lounging furniture out of recycled skate decks. Pat then hangs up his “Mission Accomplished” banner after a drag out war with a footplant-to-fakie 15’ up on the tip of the howitzer gun.

Jeff King invites the world famous Grindline crew over to Shred Ranch to lay down a truckload of concrete into humps, bumps and gnarly vertical transitions. You’re just sitting on the couch while Monk, Dogboy and crew show you why you couldn’t hang with them anyhow. Chad Bartie and Danny Dicola light up the vert wall and then Tyler Mumma and Neal Mims thread the needle between the coping and an imposing palm tree. San Diego’s skater-made Washington St. skatepark needed some interchangeable rails for their new pyramid and Built to Shred delivered. Jeff King searched auto junkyards and even his own tool shed for scrap parts to weld some truly custom designs that were worthy of being shredded by Adrian Mallory, Sam Hitz and the other ripping locals. Back at the ranch the FIT crew lays down some BMX rubber on the new crete creations ending with the skaters torching up the Gnar-B-Q as Nilton Neves ollies off the roof to shut the session down proper.

Jeff King and crew take it to the top of Shred Mountain (a.k.a. Maulside) to add some concrete to a secret skate spot that’s been terrorized by the locals since the 80’s. In true DIY style, bags of concrete are mixed up and hand stacked into various features and extensions using pool coping and even a fallen tree cemented in for some grind action. Chad Bartie, Nilton Neves, Clint Walker, Russel Grundy and Danny Dicola test out the new vigilante tranny. King and Neal Mims hack up an old salvaged sofa and transform it into a steel-ledge paradise for Ronson Lambert and Ryan Gallant. Then a hide-a-bed becomes a hide-a-shred and Mims tears up the upholstery along with Rob Welsh and Chany Jeanguenin. For the instructional Hammered ‘N’ Screwed, Chad Knight and Kristian Svitak show you how quick and easy it is to tie on a wallride and get straight to business. Back at Maulside King revs up the chainsaw and a 40’ tall tree becomes an all-natural boardslide for Mims and Bartie.

Jeff King and the Signal snowboard team blow 60,000 pounds of fresh snow at the Ranch and turn some old skateboard ramps into a winter wonderland. King also builds Clint Peterson a dirty landing, patches a gaping crack for Patrick Melcher (so he can boardslide a Shaq-diesel wall), teaches you how to turn your bedroom into a shredroom and builds a manly step-up gap for Andre Genovesi, Dyson Ramones and Chad Knight to rage his rooftop.
