Boil the Ocean: The Year That Recently Was
I was doing my usual internet lurking this morning when I saw that Boil the Ocean highlighted a couple of 2009’s crazy antics and skateboarding tricks which also included 10 video parts to watch. I was really stoked when I saw James Craig’s Blind part on the list. James and I worked really hard on that video part up until his arm injury that sidelined him from filming for the entire year before the deadline. I can’t even imagine how good his part would’ve been if he had that extra year that everybody else on the team had. I was talking to James the other day and he made sure to let me know that’s he still really hyped on skating and can’t wait to finish his next video part. Click the photo to check the article.

Burgs and Dogs

On Saturday Liberty had themselves a little barbecue at the Brea Skatepark. Although I showed up a little late, and basically was only able to be there for an hour and a half or so, it was a damn good time. Thanks to all the homies at Liberty for providing the food and the fun, here’s a couple pics that I scrambled to get before breaking out. Enjoy… (More …)

Happy 40th Felix!
Morgan and I have been logging some serious hours over at the berrics filming his Bangin’ and Felix’s Battle Commander, we finished last night with Felix’s 40th trick with only about 3 hours to spare before his 40th birthday at midnight. It was lots of hard work for everyone. Congrats Felix and Happy Birthday!

Good Times

I like this photo a lot, it was actually taken very early on when I first got my D3. It’s not exactly your typical Corona commercial (More …)
My favorite: Evan Schiefelbine

…I usually really dislike the term ‘favorite skater’. I feel like it gets thrown out there way too loosely. Skaters are constantly changing the way they skate and people are constantly changing their minds on what they think makes a good skateboarder. Its too heavy of a title to try to maintain. (More …)
First day back on board…
