i thought a little update on the video might actually be a good idea. so, just to let you know, rough cuts have commenced, some parts are looking good, some need alot of work. full editing will begin sometime early summer. i’m aiming to have premieres sometime near the end of summer, and copies for sale soon after. get stokey!

this past weekend was pretty good. the weather held up, we found an amazing new ledge spot and got alot done for lovebolts. on the other hand, i need to learn how to place my flashes better. heres a few shots from friday.

i didnt really do much at school, developed 2 rolls and scanned half of them tonight, i’ll probably to the rest in a bit. these are from this weekend, and i’ve still got half a roll left in the camera from sunday. it was a pretty laid back weekend, we skated a few spots and it was weirdly foggy for the most part, but we still got some stuff done. this blunt wasnt landed cause it was...

Watchit’s always fun when this happens. anyways. did some sweet skateboarding today with marc johnson and riley and a little kevin. fog got a little crazy and almost took the life of my camera but everything worked out. found a couple sweet spots and got a couple sweet tricks. goin’ back out tomorrow and hopefully it’ll be equal or more successful.

Watchtook a look through the archives… pretty sure this is the first time i explored colour correction.

i got a few rolls back today, and there was a 99 cent deal for them to scan it at pretty good resolution, so i figured i’d save myself the time. here are a few from the first roll, i still need to go through the other few.
riley.
scanned. its a different frame but its my favorite so far. first roll down 5 more to go.
heres a preview of some film from the trip i developed at school today. i made a print of my favorite shot after school, i’ll get some scans up as soon as i have time.
i’m just now starting to sift through all the photos i havent posted yet from AZ, so there will be the odd few photos popping up here every so often. plus i’ve got 5 or 6 rolls of film to be developed, so i’ve barely scratched the surface. here are a few random shots from the trip.
riley.
so everyone’s back home now. trip was good. lots of filming got done (which was the plan… but honestly surprising). time for developing photos and waiting for spring to come around. t’was a good time.

the trip is over, its time to get back to life.

today was our first and only day in san francisco before we drive up to portland, then vancouver. thankfully it was super nice out and we had a full day skating 3rd and army and the piers. we tried to go to a nice 10 stair rail but when we got there the school was under construction, so it was a no-go. all in all it was a fun day, with taylor getting most of the tricks. here are a few photos...
today was our longest day on the road so far. we left the hotel in tempe at 7:00 this morning, and got into our hotel in san francisco at 8:00 tonight. its about 12:30am now and we got back from skating down to fishermans wharf not too long ago. had a few fun hill bombs and walked up the steepest street in north america on the way back. this city is amazing, by far my favorite city ive ever...
turns out today was our last day in arizona. bright and early tomorrow morning we’re getting on the road to san francisco to spend one day skating there instead of one more in tempe. yesterday i didn’t take any photos except a few random ones from skating behind a safeway, i was having a good enough time skating. today all we did was go to one of the spots we were most stoked on,...
oh and ps, hope the new year is treating ya well.

finally an update from me. i really don’t have much to say or post, but the past few days have been real productive. getting clips every day. riley’s been slacking on photos, but only because he’s been shralping hard with the rest of us. tomorrow’s our last day, let’s hope it’s been as good as the last few! i’ll be posting some throwaways at the end of the...
