THE-RAY

Visionary scientist Janos Rukh convinces a group of scientists and supporters to mount an expedition to the African continent to locate and study an ancient meteorite of great significance. He exposes   more...himself to the highly toxic radiation of the meteorite, and while an antidote devised by Dr. Benet saves him from death by radiation poisoning, his naked touch causes instant death to others. Back in London, the benefits of the meteorite's controlled radiation offer Dr. Benet an opportunity to restore eyesight to the blind. The antidote's toxicity excites Prof. Rukh into paranoid rages as he seeks revenge against the members of his expedition, who he accuses of stealing his discovery for their own glory  less

Xcorps Action Sports Show #45.)"SKATEPIPE"-seg2- The Xcorps HD shoot crew led by on host Jason Lazo rolled into the small southern California town of Upland to meet pool skate legend Steve Alba   more...AKA Salba at the Pipeline skate park- home and roots to some of the best Vert skaters on the planet- for the next episode of Xcorps to be called SKATEPIPE.

This next XC show will feature Steve Alba ripping the Upland Pipe on his board along with many other talented locals catching massive air off the 20-foot tall 360-degree concrete tube. The Pipe is part of 10,000 sq. foot Skate Park, which opened to the public in 2002 and was designed by Steve Alba and California Skate parks Purkiss Rose.

One of the coolest skate zones we have shot, the Upland park is a holy zone modeled after the original Upland skate park of the 1970s-which was modeled after the original Baldy Flood Control Pipe- and contains all aspects of bank/vert skating starting with a mini-ramp take off ledge rolling into a phat metal coped half-pipe leading into a 20 foot full-pipe and ending in a deep swimming pool size vert bowl. YiKes!

Its a smooth fast speed zone and its not for beginners! Skate wheels sing there like banshee devil dogs and bone crunching freefalls happen easy! Xcorps cams captured some great action including shots from a POV cam attached to Salbas helmet. The Xcorps shoot crew-included network Emmy winner Dave Alvarez and producer Sundarajan also snagging HD shot action.

Xcorps host Jason Lazo talked with Steve Alba who lives in Upland about the killer park he helped design and his past and present career in the world of skateboarding. Jason also spoke to other skaters including a hot chick looping the tube and some ripper groms going full overhead! What will they morph into!??

Also in this episode is cool video footage of Steve Alba jamming with his band in a local So Cal club. Nice custom soundtrack to the action from Steve. Great new music videos from RIVE promotions and Suburban Noize Records rolls the action in this special Xcorps show.

Rounding out the shots in this episode will be some never before televised 16mm B&W film footage shot at a Pocatello Idaho Skatepark in 1980 by XC producer Stu Edmondson. Who knew they were skating in Idaho back then never mind a skate park!

Check out the following links for more on Steve Alba and the Upland Pipeline Skate Park. This show to be released in appr.4 weeks. Classic Xcorps!

Xcorps Action Sports Show #44.)"PADDLEBOARD"-seg.5- Xcorps TV Press Release 9/3/08 San Diego Ca
Xcorps Action Sports TV-PADDLEBOARD-New episode! TV-PADDLEBOARD-Next episode!
Xcorps cams zoom in   more...on another cool niche sport born of the surfing world with a close up look at the water sport of open ocean PADDLEBOARDING featuring lone watermen stroking boards from Californias Catalina Island to the mainland-Manhattan Beach California- a distance of 32 miles!
Jason Lazo hosts this next Xcorps show, sponsored by PIPES CAFÉ and HAWAIIMANA NUTRITION, reporting from locations in Hawaii and California. Along with the California paddle boarders Jason talks to big wave tow in surfers Garrett McNamara and Keilli Mamala in Oahus North Shore. Great big wave video here featuring the two in action in Hawaii and Teahoopu Tahiti. Dont miss this action!
The Xcorps shot on the beach in Cardiff Reef Ca. included here some of the 100 paddle boarders who made the epic 32 mile journey from the island of Catalina to the California mainland. Jason talked with 3 top 20-seated athletes, George Plsek, Brian Szymanski and Tim Fischer about the challenges and triumphs of the event. A good look here of the actual paddleboards used by the participants along with great video footage shot by videographer Dan Dixon on his jet ski during the race.
Paddle boarding events began with Tom Blake back in 1928 who raced a 120-pound board the 32 miles from Catalina to the mainland in just under 6 hours. In the early 1950s surfboard shapers Dale Velzy, Greg Knoll and Hobie Alter introduced a new era to the sport staging the legendary races between California city and county lifeguards. Dangerous conditions cancel the Catalina race for 20 years before Gibby Gibson and Buddy Bohn revive it with a field of 10 paddlers in 1982. Buddy and Gibby have helped keep the sport alive from 1982-2006.
Qualifying for the Catalina Classic Marathon Paddleboard Race race is NOT easy with each participant having to do at least one other grueling long distance paddle beforehand.
Great new music from Suburban Noize Records as well as RIVE promotions videos matches the action in this next Xcorps episode currently in the HD edit. Show release in est.2 weeks. Just another day on the Xcorps!

Jason takes off up river in a custom all aluminum Idaho made Bentz boat fitted with twin 350 V-8s that can handle the powerful big river whitewater with thrilling ease! It took our widest lenses to capture the spectacular scenery of the canyon and Jason did a great job of hosting from the rolling and pitching deck of the speeding boat named Moonshine as it powered up rapids with names like Wild Sheep and Granite Creek and Green Room! Music from SubNoiZe band Mower fits the action. Hang on! Great HD shots on board and looking down from riverside cliffs with not a building or sign of civilization to be seen.

As cameras rolled on cue he gets his Ugly Stick yanked and the reel starts screaming as the battle commences Ernest Hemingway XC style! The J man cranks and pulls hard for more than an hour with the fish leading the boat down 2 sets of raging rapids before finally giving up for a moment at the surface only to laugh showing its monstrous size and diving further working Jason into a full sweat! Fish band The Dorados throw out their song Hooked on Hookin Up for the good fit. Finally Jasons muscle wins out and the big fish is pulled ashore, and BIG it is! Eric calms the ocean size fish by flipping it upsidown before measuring it with a full size tape measure! At nine feet and 250 lbs the catch is considered a rare Snake River Hog! Before letting it go Jason talks with Eric about the Sturgeon fish, which is estimated at 100 plus years old!

The next segment takes a look at what the street bikes can do and Rat talks to Richard Thomason owner of Danny Boy 2 – a modified airplane fuel drop tank- who talks about what it’s like to drive all out! See his max speed in this unique speed class all overseen by the SCTA.
After that the Sub NoiZe records band Mondo Generator jams the flats to a collage of motor cars from Buicks and Fords to rice rockets to turbine powered never imagined vehicles in all sizes and colors. Rat takes a looks at the fastest car of the week- the awesome Nish Motor sports Royal Purple streamliner ripping past the 370 MPH mark! All American custom engineered! Rat cruises the pits and talks to driver Mike Nish who talks about his speed runs. Insane shots here looking out the back of his car as well as a POV dash-cam showing how big his eyes get at these white knuckle speeds! It’s all about adrenaline here on The Xcorps!
The action and music continue with a look at the semi truck class of speed demons. Watch a double diesel engine custom modified trailer-hauler take off and blast down the salt track at over 229 MPH! That’s truckin!
The show wraps with show host Rat Sult on the track with an un-authorized race of his own driving in the motor home class! See his full sized rig roll against a vintage South Wind coach at floor pedal speed! High octane smiles here for sure! That’s the way we roll on The Xcorps!
