I almost drowned!!

I woke up early to surf green harbor yesterday. it was pumping. i duck dove the first wave. got held under by the second for 6 or more seconds. got held under by the third wave for the same duration. got held under by the fourth for the same duration. eat shit green harbor you have shitty waves anyway

Do you have like..Bob Marley..or some good music?

The day started out with a text message from dan sayin g to come by the shop around 4 for a shop get together befor a skateboard art show downthe street. Riley and myself swung by and chilled with the crew. They were setting up a tent at the show to promote the shop. so we thot it would be perfect to bring the shop couch and the shop masscott, pickles, wich is a bird.

After being yelled at for entering an art show with no shoes riley and I decided to go bridge jumping down the street, when we got back we invited people out the saquish for a fire

The crew rolled in balls deep with probly 12 or 15 people. One of wich was some girl that was not to stoaked on "being at fire with kids". She was just way to cool for the beach and really killed the vibes. She wanted to "listen to bob marley and smoke reef". well that wasnt the name of the game at alllll she found out so Once she finnaly left the whole mood lightened and things got underway. With some soothing punk rock blasting out of the car speakers, lawn chairs and tables being burnt, we played a little game of red rover over the fire. The night ended with no casualties but only a serious fistfull of buck.

Going mad

ITS ME!!!!

Today From Pembroke

Yesterday I saw Maddie, I was skating Muff Park with Ray, John, Kevin Dempsy, and Chris Botsch. She saw us and stopped by. She still bloggs wich is awsome. We then returned to Johns, then Chris and I skated Yellow ledge and a good double sidded curb till 12ish. 

Today I mowed my lawn. Then I went to Plym skatepark to skate by myself and get some me time. Plym park is "close due to vandalism untill further notice". There is no grafitti in the park, and no trash. So I dont know what the vandalism is. However I skated the park and then headed downtown to scope the scene, watch some people, and check the laddies. It was fun. Tomarrow I am off to the city, not sure what part yet, just to go skate some spots solo. It should be a fun day.

I like this guy, hes funny, the first scene thats black and white is from Harvey Spannos, the great Blair Stanley skated it

Saturday at the Races

I headed to vermont over the weekend for the first race of the 2009 NECC season. On the way up we picked up a new front tire..

And then we  put it on..

My uncle and cousin came to the race and hung out

It was a small turnout compared to most races with about 40 people, this time there were only 27

so I got ready to beat thos 27 people.

and I was off..

and going and going

while I was out racing this guy got his 50ft trailor stuck in the field, it took his truck my dads truck and a side by side to pull it out.

I finaly got back after an hour and a half of the deepest stickiest and slipperiest mud.

I ended up placing second in my class and we headed out with a new trophy.

next race should be fun

Harvey Spannos

Just saw this movie last night, it was awsome

Well Fleet: Take Two

What a day, I called up good ol south shore shredder abe dubin to see if he wanted to roll down to wellfleet park for the day, at around high noon i picked up him, his brother Isac, and Skerry to head to the lovely arm of Massachusettes.

I met met this guy Marcus who worked at the park, he was this rad surfer/skated from the 70s and 80s, he knew the fellow levitate crew.

He used to shape boards and shoot for skatebaorder back in the day of concrete waves, pools and snake runs. He showed me some of his photos of Steve Alba, The Z Boys, Duane Peters, Steve Olsen, Jake Phelps and who ever else you could name. Guy was legit, he took some photos of us in the pool for the blog, Thanks marcus, we will be back this summer.

"cold beer and friendly service, brillianttt!" The theme/moto of the day.

It caught up to some of us..

Wellfleet sesh was real good, just solid fun ripping from everyone. We headed out after 3 or 4 hrs and went to sandwich  park. by far the sketchiest park ever. I jacked up pick up ruck rolled up with a huge confetterat flag on the back, Stars and bars for life.....?  This was our second hot spot of the day, it was a super tight sesh and everyone was killing it.

Isac chillen after a days work.

Abe gets his jub on while skerry takes an ill min. to relax

Found this "angled" ledge but it was a chunky muff, with real rough ground, it was slideable but not that well.

Abe saw the opportunity for a wallie..

However it didnt work out due to more rough concrete on top of the manual pad/ledge/wallie

Befor we left we saw this hot tag, yeah sandwich get gnartsy

Well the day ended for me back on the south shore but the rest of the crew headed to the city for a stay over night. Hey marcus, if you end up reading this check out my photos, from a fellow photographer,

Till the next adventure, goodnight world

Alabama, Land of Stars and Bars

Im currently in alabama, yes ALABAMA, for my uncles wedding. It was a 3 hour plane ride down to the Atlanta airport, followed by a 2 and a half hr, car ride to montgomery alabama. Now I get to sit in a hotel while it pours rain allll day, However three good things I have found out

1. There is a bowling ally next to the hotel with 99 cent bowling

2. They have sparx extra strength, (only a select few will understand the greatness of this)

3.There is a waffle house across the street,(sooooooooo sketchy)

I was forwarned to watch out for the "stars and bars". I will take that into heavy consideration.

pictures coming soon...yay

Disposable Camera

I've been buying a lot of disposable camera's lately, and I just got three of them developed. The girl at CVS kinda blew it when she developed them, so most were just blurry and cruddy. Here's some that made it through though.

This next one is my personal favorite because its actually two pictures that got cut into one.
