RAMP R.I.P.


We moved which meant we had to tear down the ramp. Its sad but we knew the day would come. The straight part of the ramp was donated to a church where its set up inside. Ask Noggin about it if your see him.

Rengstorff Days

I saw the funniest video on YouTube the other day. I don't know these kids but I'm glad to see the new generation of Rengstorff locals is having a good time. Heres a link.

FILE CABINET: Travis hits a knobbed rail

Travis busted a killer rail with a knob in the middle.

Last Sesh @ VANS SKATEPARK

I found a strip of negatives from the very last session at the Vans Park in Milpitas. All the skaters had a last chance mentality. Luckily there was an ambulance waiting out front. R.I.P.

Skated some killer red curbs last night

File Cabinet: Valco Fight

Valco Mall used to have a pretty sick rail to skate. However the security guard didn't think so.

Skated De Anza yesterday.

We had to bounce from the park because it was lame. We grabbed up Johnny McFlurry and ended up at De Anza skating the banks and ledges. Then we went to the elementary school across the street and tried some lines.

damaged goods/ Scott's big day!

I've been digging through some old negatives and I found these two damaged negatives with rad images from sunnyvale on them. I did a horrible job processing the film and ruined some of the shots which is a bummer since it was a special day. Special why? Special because my buddy Scott Spurrier finally joined me at the skate park, knee pads and all. it was epic.

Fair Oaks Skate Park is closed due to summer vacation. Actually its open but the hoards of kids have it lockdown. Anyway I met up with Travis there and he said he had a new spot. i couldn't wait to bounce out. he took me to a chill ditch in PA with an up hill ledge with a DYI crete tranny. Travis did some high speed carves farther up the ditch. It's a killer spot.

Dan Stempson: stoke of the day


In case you didn't hear. Dan Stempson had his photo on the Thrasher website as the "Stoke of the Day." If you did hear about it, too bad. I'm telling you about it again, since for both of us it was our first photo in Thrasher and we are stoked. booya.

Travis found a spot



The other day i met up with Travis at greer. He said that on his bike ride over to the park he had found a new spot near by. After a healthy sesh of green bowls and flyouts we went to check it out. He ended up doing a gnarly tail drop off a pipe onto a rough steep bank. heres a few picks. Travis had to dive to save his board from going in the water, and on the couple that he pulled he had to barge through the harsh kink first, and then make a quick sharp right to keep from landing in the creek. it was killer.
