NO SNAKING!!

The new skatepark is ready to go, all except it still isn't open. Such a bummer to be looking at a rad new park and you can't even skate it. Well, they say that helmets will be mandatory, (we'll see) and that you can't have DVD players at the park. At least they got one detail right....Absolutly NO SNAKING!!!!!

Fishin, Kanis, What Else?

I had a killer weekend! The Altown benefit, I unfortunately had to miss, but went over really well, Thanks for everyone who came out. I went down to Arkansas for a fishing trip for my grandfather's birthday! It was a super fun time, just like last year. We caught and released all day, and all and all caught 54 fish that still live in the river! I later went to Little Rock on my way home to kick it with Will, the homie. Vino's, Kanis, and beer! Good Times!

Street Mission...

Went and skated all day yesterday. It was beautiful outside, we have really lucked out with some mild weather recently. Hit up various spots, including Altown, and went and scoped out some street spots and even found a new one. Always fun to find something unskated, thats actually good, in my home town. Went with Jed and Bambei to Hornlake which was interesting to say the least. Either way it was a fun day, sometimes its best to not have a plan, you get more done that way.

Throwaway Footage?

FU Crue has got it down... Filming rad tricks and then calling it throwaway? I wish I could get clips like this and waste them. These kids are rad!

Embrace the Suck Premier Party.

About 20 people crashed the Trife House this past weekend for the premier of the crew video called, Embrace The Suck. About 5 guys from St. Louis, 2 from Little Rock, and maybe 10 or so from Nashville, not a bad session. The homies showed up even thicker for the actual viewing of the video. It went over really well, lots of high energy. It was sick, well done to all the skaters in the video and to Hammond for putting it together. I don't think our living room has crammed so many people in it at once, 30+ for the viewing.

Lurkers Lurking, scoping the video.


Nashville kids everywhere getting weird!




The STL and Nashville guys went on a rampage, I saw STL kill the spot, and Nashville, as usual, went on a street mission and fucked things up. I even got a sick clip with them for the new Thriving on High Fives video. It was a super fun weekend. I'm always excited to have the homies in town. They get the session going, and all of them kill it!
